Not all journeys are love, light, & sacred geometry.
And that does NOT mean something has gone wrong.
1 of the biggest misconceptions around psychedelic & medicine work is the idea of the “bad trip.” What most people call a bad trip is often a where the mind loses control, emotions surface that have been buried, or the nervous system encounters something it has avoided feeling. This in itself is healing ❤️🩹 this is the work.
🍄 Medicine does not create chaos.
It amplifies what already lives inside us.
Sometimes that amplification feels expansive and beautiful.
Sometimes it feels confronting, raw, emotional, or intense. Me personally, Ive learnt to love the confronting, raw, intense moments 😆
BOTH hold medicine.
The medicine always gives what you need, not what you want.
The moments that feel uncomfortable are often where conditioning loosens, suppressed emotions surface, a deeper layers of the psyche ask to be witnessed rather than bypassed.
Fighting the experience usually makes it worse. Meeting it with breath support, and safety often allows it to move through.
This is why preparation, safe containers,, and integration are not optional. They are what transform intensity into insight rather than overwhelm into harm.
If you have ever had a challenging journey, you did not fail the medicine.
Your system may have been showing you something important that needed care, patience, and integration.
The real work is rarely about chasing high live light experiences.
It is about learning how to stay present with yourself in every state of consciousness.
