The Key of Inbodied Integration

Inbodied integration is key with psychedelic-assisted therapies. It’s essential for any enriching experiences with a psychoactive medicine. In order to effectively support others in living the truths that emerge from journeys, every clinician in the field must know the landscape of the medicine that they facilitate from their own psyche. 

Join Psychedelic Support for a discussion about leading integration with action oriented meaning with licensed clinical social worker and psychedelic-assisted therapist, Lauren Taus, LCSW. We explore how to creatively approach psychedelic integration sessions in a way that anchors good, encourages clients to actively shift their mindset, and how to shed what’s needed in order to make meaningful change that aligns with their highest good.

Equine therapy. The photo captures a serene rural scene at sunset, with a woman reaching out toward a light brown horse in a grassy field. The sky is warm with hues of soft pinks and oranges, casting a golden glow over the scene. A second, dark brown horse stands in the background, adding depth to the composition. Delicate, translucent waves filled with small, shimmering golden particles swirl around the woman and horse, creating a magical, dreamlike effect. The woman, dressed in dark clothing, appears silhouetted against the fading light, while the horse’s coat reflects the warm tones of the sunset. The overall composition feels peaceful and enchanted, blending natural beauty with a touch of fantasy.

Near-Death and Psychedelic Experiences. The image features a silhouetted hand reaching towards a bright white light at the center-right, creating a strong contrast against a dark background. The left side of the image has a hypnotic spiral pattern of alternating dark and light grey lines that converge towards the light, drawing the eye inward. The hand is in the foreground, with fingers spread, and its dark silhouette is sharply outlined against the glowing white light, giving the scene a surreal and dramatic quality. The color scheme is monochromatic, dominated by black, grey, and white tones.

Psychedelic Therapy for Personality Disorders. The image features a woman with her hand covering part of her face, standing against a hypnotic, spiraling black-and-gray background. Her face is partially obscured, with light casting dramatic shadows that create a moody, intense atmosphere. Two silhouettes flank her, one on each side, as though they are shadows of her or representations of internal figures, adding an eerie, introspective feel. The woman's gray shirt and the subdued color palette, dominated by dark tones and soft contrasts, enhance the sense of depth and psychological tension. The concentric circles in the background draw the viewer's eye inward, amplifying a feeling of introspection and mystery.

Psychedelics and grief. This image depicts two older people dressed in black, standing in a cemetery with gravestones and trees in the background. They are embracing each other in a gesture of comfort, their backs to the viewer, suggesting a moment of shared mourning or remembrance. The color palette is muted, dominated by earthy tones and soft greens, with the black clothing contrasting against the lighter background. A unique compositional element is the series of curving white lines that cut through the image, creating a wave-like distortion over the background scenery. This effect adds an abstract, introspective quality, perhaps evoking a sense of time passing or memories shifting. The framing of the lines emphasizes the solemn, intimate moment, drawing the eye to the figures and reinforcing the emotional depth of the scene.

Potential of psychedelics. The image shows a cheerful couple in a bright, modern kitchen, engaged with a laptop. The man, wearing glasses and a light blue sweater, is seated and focused on the screen, while the woman stands behind him, smiling and embracing him with her arm over his shoulder. She wears a light pink sweater, creating a soft color contrast with his attire. A vibrant, circular medical symbol (the caduceus) hovers near the laptop, with blue and purple gradients and a glowing effect that adds a futuristic touch to the scene. In the foreground, a glass of orange juice and a few papers suggest a casual, homey environment. The light streaming in from the background adds a warm, inviting feel to the composition, emphasizing the couple's shared interest and engagement in the moment.
