Frequently Asked Questions
What is Psychedelic Integration?
Psychedelic Integration is the process of synthesizing the mind and body after experiencing a non-ordinary state of consciousness, often initiated by psychedelics. This journey involves exploring and making sense of the feelings, sensations, and insights that arise during these transformative experiences.
During a psychedelic journey, profound ideas, emotions, and sensations may surface, often carrying valuable messages for personal healing. Integration is about creating space to understand and work with these experiences so they can positively inform our daily lives. By engaging with what comes up, we can harness the transformative potential that psychedelics offer, leading to meaningful and lasting growth.
Non-ordinary states of consciousness can often bring up overwhelming ideas or emotions that may feel tempting to push away or forget—much like a dream quickly fades without reflection. Integration helps keep these insights alive, making it possible to incorporate them into a more fulfilling and balanced life. Professional support during this process can be the difference between fully embracing these insights or feeling unable to process them.

Is This Legal?
Black Swan Services operates as a mentorship and guidance program. I do not supply, promote, or condone the use of illegal substances. There are serious legal and medical risks associated with unsupervised psychedelic use, especially for those dealing with mental health challenges.
That said, I understand that individuals sometimes choose to engage in these experiences regardless of legal restrictions. Our integration services provide a safe, non-judgmental, and confidential space to process these experiences, allowing for self-discovery and transformation.
I have specialized training and extensive experience in navigating the altered states of consciousness these substances can bring about. If you've had a challenging or difficult psychedelic experience and need support processing it, or if you’re seeking guidance to understand a journey, I am here to help.

This sense of connection forms a reliable support system to help you maximize your transformative experience.

How Can Yoga Aid in Psychedelic Integration?
Yoga and meditation can be powerful tools for integrating the insights and emotions that arise from psychedelic experiences. In our sessions, we offer trauma-informed yoga practices that focus on grounding, relaxation, and release, helping you process experiences in both body and mind.
Through mindful movement, breathwork, and somatic release, yoga facilitates a gentle reconnection with the body, offering a grounded space to digest and integrate your journey.
