It's not an escape, it's a return.

Psychedelic integration is the process of taking what you’ve experienced during a non-ordinary state—whether through ketamine, psilocybin, or other altered-state work—and making sense of it in a way that supports real, embodied change. It’s not just about interpreting visions or "figuring things out.” It’s about allowing insights to land, moving through emotional layers that may have surfaced, and weaving those shifts into your daily life, relationships, and sense of self.

At Demystified Mental Health, we approach integration with a deep respect for the body’s pace and wisdom. Sometimes an experience brings clarity. Sometimes it brings up confusion, grief, or sensations that don’t yet have words. All of that is welcome. Integration is where we slow down and listen—not just to the mind’s stories, but to the nervous system’s signals, to the breath, to what’s happening beneath the surface.

We might explore:

• What your body felt during the journey—and what it’s still holding
   
• Emotions that are trying to move through, now that the defenses are softened
   
• Old patterns that no longer feel aligned, and how to gently shift them
   
• How to stay grounded while staying open
   

True integration doesn’t force closure. It creates a container for meaning to unfold, for transformation to take root, and for you to stay connected to yourself in the process.

Whether you’re coming out of a KAP session, a ceremonial experience, or your own inner work, integration is where the healing becomes real.
