Self Psychedelic Integration

In the work of Internal Family Systems (IFS) we hold that each of us has a solid core Self, whole and eternal. Different spiritual traditions refer to this as Soul, Spirit, Atman, Grounded Self, Buddha Nature, no self, etc. It is the essence of our pure being beyond personality.

We also have parts that we also confuse for our Authentic Self. Wounded parts, managing parts, protective parts, and so on. All of these parts, or subpersonalities, have somatic (bodily) expression. The psycho-spiritual work of IFS is aimed at relieving parts from the burdens they carry, integrating them within whole system, and, ultimately, discovering and living our lives from that Eternal, Wise Self.
IFS is not just a form of therapy, it is a model of somatic psycho-spiritual practice that intersects well with the sacred and sometimes challenging medicine journeys people take. IFS has been shown to be an effective model for working with psychedelic experiences. Self Psychedelic Integration combines the practices and wisdom of Internal Family Systems, Somatic Psychotherapy, the Expressive and Creative Arts, and Psychedelic Harm Reduction Integration.

Self Psychedelic Integration training is open to both clinicians and non-clinician because, while it is helpful for Integrative Psychedelic Professionals to know and effectively work within the IFS framework, not everyone wants to, nor can afford to, work with an integrative psychedelic professional. These trainings are both didactic and experiential. Because the root of all of our dysfunctions as humans is disconnection, these trainings will be highly interactive.
