Psychedelics Are The Window, Your Practice Is The Door.
Psychedelics are the window, and your practice is the door. What do I mean by that?
Psychedelic therapies are regaining popularity with promises of transformational experiences for personal development and healing for both the mind and body. Psychedelics are powerful because of their ability to open a window into the subconscious mind, where the root causes of our internal roadblocks and deep-seated beliefs reside. They offer brief but profound glimpses into the deep recesses of our thoughts, emotions, and memories. These experiences can lead to significant insights and breakthroughs, but they are often fleeting and hard to fully integrate into our daily lives.
In contrast, practices that allow for a stable connection to our subconscious serve as the door we walk through for lasting change. Hypnotherapy and other mindfulness based practices teaches us how to create a stable connection and communication with the subconscious for lasting change.
It’s often nice to look out the window to gain perspective, but how we walk through the door and navigate what’s on the other side is what matters.
Psychedelics (The Window)
Rapid access to the subconscious, where, for better or worse, we are in a dreamlike state for a finite period.
Requires deep consideration around set and setting and proper support (ideally from a trained professional).
When combined with practices, “looking out the window” gives insight into how we will integrate the experience.
Hypnotherapy/Mindfulness-Based Practices (The Door)
Alternative to Psychedelics: A structured approach that allows you to enter the deep states of the subconscious at your own pace and with greater control.
Provides the tools and support needed to process and integrate what you discover, leading to lasting change.
Practices like breathwork and hydrotherapy enhance effectiveness and can create a controlled psychedelic-like experience that regulates the nervous system, preparing your mind and body.
With hypnotherapy, you have the ability to revisit and rework the insights you gain, ensuring that the changes you make are deep, lasting, and fully integrated into your life.
Regardless if you are looking out the window or trying to walk through the door. What practices do you have that can support you? If you are interested in learning more, feel free to setup a discovery call.
