095 | The “Refinement” Stage of Psychedelic Integration: Personal Style, Slow Fashion & Conscious Consumption

What in the world is a psychedelics podcast doing talking about “personal style” and fashion?! This has to be the first. But discovering your personal style is identity work that requires vulnerability. It’s a deeply meaningful journey of self discovery. If you don’t see the connection now, then you will by the end of this podcast.

In this episode, I am introducing a concept around the different stages of psychedelic integration: There is the “heavy lifting” stage where we’re doing deep work to significantly improve our lives, followed by the “refinement” stage which is a lighter process of fine tuning.

For me, this refinement process is showing up in my journey to discover my personal style. The misalignment between my identity and my wardrobe has come up a few times during psychedelic journeys, and I am finally addressing it so that the outside is a true reflection of my inside. I also make the connection between the responsibility to find your personal style, living a values-based life, and sustainable consumption.

Topics Covered:

• The “heavy lifting” vs “refinement” stages of psychedelic integration
