    Why You Feel Worse After Ayahuasca - 3 Reasons People Miss

    Why are you feeling worse after the Ayahuasca ceremony? You came for healing. Now you feel off. Angry. Disconnected. What felt clear in ceremony feels far away. This is where many people start doubting the process. In this episode, we break down the three real reasons this happens. What is actually being activated. Why the experience doesn’t hold once you’re back in your life. And how to work with what’s here without collapsing or pushing it away. We dive into: Why feeling worse after ayahuasca is common and misunderstood Most people expect relief, clarity, and lasting peace. Instead, they meet intensity, confusion, or emotional weight. We dive into why it is happening and what the real cause can be. The “drop” after ceremony and what it really is After the openness of ceremony, coming back into daily life can feel like a contraction. The nervous system shifts, the environment changes, and the contrast becomes sharp. That drop is part of the transition, not a failure.Spiritual hunger and how your system reacts when it’s not being fed You touched a deeper layer of yourself in ceremony. When that connection isn’t nourished afterward, the system reacts. Anxiety, restlessness, and disconnection can be signals that something essential is missing.The shift from being to character, and why it drains your energy In ceremony, you are closer to your natural state. Back in daily life, you often return to roles and patterns. Maintaining those takes effort, especially when they no longer match who you just experienced yourself to be.How to recognize when you’re performing instead of receiving You may notice yourself trying to act a certain way, manage impressions, or stay in control. This creates tension and fatigue. Being, on the other hand, allows you to receive, rest, and actually feel nourished.The difference between symptoms and root causes What you feel on the surface is often not the core issue. The discomfort is a signal. The deeper layer might be disconnection, unprocessed emotion, or misalignment in how you are living. 👉 NEED SUPPORT?

  2. Sacred Service: Integrating Your Impact E1

    2D AGO

    Sacred Service: Integrating Your Impact E1

    Called to be of service with your medicine? This is a new series on the Ayahuasca Integration Podcast called Sacred Service. Alongside our regular weekly episodes, I share short teachings from the work I do with students who feel called to bring their healing, their voice, and their medicine into service. The dream behind this series is that more unique spiritual leaders step forward. People who do not fit the narrow image we have been shown. People shaped by real life, real healing, real complexity. People from many walks of life who have walked deeply with the medicine and carry something true, embodied, and needed. The prayer is that what has stayed hidden can begin to come forward. That stories long kept quiet can be spoken. That voices that learned to stay small can find a way to be heard. That the medicine people carry in their life, their presence, and their service can reach the people it is meant for. This is a specific part of the path. The moment where what you have lived is no longer only for you. Where you feel called into service with your medicine. Often as the first one in your lineage to step into this role, without a clear model to follow. These episodes are here to support that integration. Not only of your experiences, but of your impact. Your voice. Your expression. Your way of serving. In these episodes, I share how to give form to what you carry. How to find language for your work. How to shape your voice and message so people can actually feel it and understand it. How to create something real in the world that others can step into. You’ll see these episodes marked as Sacred Service. If you feel that call, this is for you. 👉 JOIN THE INTEGRATION CIRCLE : ⁠https://aia.myflodesk.com/hnng12duwd⁠ Weekly integration circles for us on the path with grandmother Ayahuasca. ...Or are you becoming the medicine?

  3. Ayahuasca and Spiritual Parasites: Understanding Energetic Attachments and Protection

    APR 8

    Ayahuasca and Spiritual Parasites: Understanding Energetic Attachments and Protection

    What if the fear of spiritual parasites isn’t irrational… but incomplete? In this episode, I take you into a moment in ceremony where I felt something on my body that I could not remove. Not with breath. Not with force. Not with will. And what became clear in that moment changed how I understand this work completely: you don’t remove what’s feeding. you close what’s open. We go into what people call spiritual parasites, energetic attachments, or entities. Not as belief, but as lived experience. Because the real question is not what’s out there. It’s what in you is available. This episode breaks down: what actually happens to your system when it opens in ceremonywhy sensitivity without structure creates vulnerabilitywhy most people know how to open, but not how to closehow breath regulates and stabilizes your fieldhow fear and resistance amplify what you’re trying to get rid ofAnd where this led me was not outward, but inward. An abandonment wound.Still active. Still shaping my behavior. I share how that wound has been driving anxiety in my body for years, how I’ve been regulating it through food and distraction, and what happened when I stopped avoiding it and stayed with it long enough for something to shift. There’s also a teaching from the shaman that reframed everything:if the wound is open, something will come.heal the wound, and it stops. Toward the end, I go into what it actually means to protect, cleanse, and close your system after working with ayahuasca. Not as theory. As responsibility. And I speak about the decision that came out of this.To go deeper. To stay inside the work. If you’re walking this path, this is part of it. Where are you on your healing journey? ....

  4. When Ayahuasca Reveals What You’re Not Ready to See

    When Ayahuasca Reveals What You’re Not Ready to See

    What Happens When Ayahuasca Shows You Something You're Not Ready to See? ...Maybe you just walked out of ceremony carrying something you didn't ask for. ...Maybe it was about someone you love. ...Maybe it was so big, so confusing, or so threatening that part of you has been trying to put it back ever since. This episode is for that moment. In this podcast, David Vox shares two times the medicine showed him something he couldn't unsee. ..And the moment he realised the medicine wasn't just warning him about others, but himself. 👉 JOIN OUR CIRCLE HERE: https://aia.myflodesk.com/hnng12duwd You'll hear: Why the hardest ceremonies sometimes are the most important onesWhat the medicine is actually doing when she shows you something that scares youHow to stay when everything in you wants to run Plus —We cover ten principles for integrating what you're not ready to see: Don't make it mean anything about you yet. What you saw is real. What it means is still unfolding. Hold it without verdict.Don't act from the vision — integrate from it. What feels like clarity the morning after is often truth without roots. Let it age before you let it move you.Find one honest witness. Not someone to interpret it. Someone who can sit inside the weight of it with you without rushing you toward resolution.Go into the body first. The body received the vision before the mind had a chance to filter it. Feel where it landed before you try to understand it.Move toward it slowly — take it in doses. The nervous system needs contrast. Touch the hard thing, return to safety. Repeat. That's how it gets metabolized.Don't spiritualize your way out of it. "Everything is unfolding perfectly" can be true and a bypass at the same time. Stay with what was actually shown before you transcend it.Journal as a witness, not an analyst. Write what happened, what you felt, what you're afraid it means. No conclusions. No framework. Just honest presence with your own experience.Ask: what is this protecting me from? The resistance isn't weakness. It's the psyche guarding something tender. Follow it inward and it takes you directly to what most needs your attention.Don't weaponize the vision against yourself. The medicine showed you a truth. Not a sentence. There's a difference between I did harmful things and I am a harmful person.Life is the best integration. The deepest integration doesn't happen on a cushion. It happens in how you speak to the person you love the next morning. In whether you make the call you've been avoiding. Your life is the laboratory. Where are you on your healing journey? ....

  6. Humanity Dying — Or Birthing Something New? An Interview With Ayahuasca Shaman Tina "Kat" Courtney

    Humanity Dying — Or Birthing Something New? An Interview With Ayahuasca Shaman Tina "Kat" Courtney

    Is humanity healing — or is it falling apart? Right now the world feels like it's burning. And maybe it is. But what if that's not the tragedy we think it is? What if we're not dying — but in labor? Tina "Kat" Courtney has sat with thousands of people at their most vulnerable self. As one of the very few Western women traditionally trained as an Ayahuasca shaman in the Shipibo tradition, she's learned one thing above everything else — the hard part is never the enemy. It's the invitation. In this conversation we go deep into what this turbulent moment in history is really asking of us, why our shadow is not something to fear but something to befriend, and what an ancient plant medicine with thousands of years of wisdom actually sees coming for humanity. Spoiler — she's not scared. And by the end of this episode, you might not be either. In This Episode We Cover: What Ayahuasca Actually Is — And Where She Really Comes FromKat gives her definition of ayahuasca after 20 years of working with her, and shares where she believes this ancient intelligence truly originates from. The answer might surprise you. Why Choosing the Right Facilitator Could Be the Most Important Decision You MakeIn a space that's growing faster than its wisdom, Kat gets honest about what separates integrity from danger. What she says next is something every first-timer needs to hear before they book a retreat. The Shaman's Basic Integration KitKat breaks down the foundational daily practices that determine whether a ceremony changes your life or fades into a memory. This is the part most people skip — and exactly why they keep drinking without moving forward. Shadow Work, Karma & the Lessons That Take Years to UnderstandKat shares the personal homework ayahuasca gave her that took years to complete. Some of it she fought. Some of it broke her open. All of it changed everything. Why We Fear the Light More Than the DarknessOne of the most unexpected turns in this entire conversation. What Kat reveals about our deepest resistance in ceremony will stay with you long after you finish listening. About The Ayahuasca Integration Podcast: The Ayahuasca Integration Podcast with David Vox is a weekly show dedicated to the real work that happens after the ceremony ends. While plant medicine like ayahuasca can be one of the most profound experiences of a person's life, the transformation it opens up only becomes real through integration — the ongoing process of bringing what was revealed in ceremony into everyday life, relationships, and identity.

    Animal Allies and Trauma Healing: What Ayahuasca Can’t Heal Alone

    What happens when the most profound healing in your life doesn't come from a therapist, a spiritual teacher, or even ayahuasca — but from an animal? Did you also have a deep relationship with an animal that felt like so much more than just "an animal"? This episode dives into the medicine of our animal allies and explores why they are essential guides in trauma healing — beyond what ayahuasca or any psychedelic work can do alone. I share the story of the animal who became my teacher and friend, showing me the spiritual depth and transformative power of these relationships, and revealing the lessons I could only receive through loyal presence, reflection, and unwavering guidance. Because here's what I've come to understand after over a hundred ceremonies and a lifetime of healing work: ayahuasca can take you to the root of your pain. She can show you where it lives, when it started, what it cost you. She can crack you open in ways nothing else can. But there are parts of us that were wounded in a very specific way — through the loss of unconditional love — and those parts need something equally specific to come home. They need a mirror. A pure one. One that never lied to you. In this episode we explore: Why losing an animal can hit harder than any human loss — and why that actually makes complete senseWhat animals really are on a spiritual level — and why we massively underestimate themThe difference between guilt and shame in trauma healing — and why the body holds both long after the mind has moved onWhy desire and fear are more connected than we think — and how unresolved grief quietly turns your deepest wants into things you run fromWhat ayahuasca alone cannot heal — and where community becomes the real medicine About The Ayahuasca Integration Podcast: The Ayahuasca Integration Podcast with David Vox is a weekly show dedicated to the real work that happens after the ceremony ends.

    Death as Sacred Medicine: Ayahuasca Integration with Tina “Kat” Courtney from Plant Medicine People

    Do you feel broken beyond repair? Have you come home from an ayahuasca ceremony carrying something so profound you have no idea how to integrate it into your everyday life? Are you navigating a dark night of the soul—that terrifying space where everything you thought you knew has crumbled, leaving only confusion, fear, and the raw possibility of transformation? This episode is for anyone who has sat with plant medicine and struggled to make sense of what happened afterward. It's for those in the depths of a spiritual crisis, questioning if they'll ever find solid ground again. And it's for seekers who want to understand what true integration actually looks like when you're bridging mystical experience with the demands of modern life. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE: What a dark night of the soul actually is and why it feels like being thrown in a blender—plus how to navigate it without losing your mind Why you're not broken or unfixable—Kat's controversial perspective that challenges everything we think about healing and therapy The difference between transformation and spiritual bypassing—and why most people fail at integration because they skip the embodiment work How to know if a ceremony space is actually safe and what red flags to watch for when choosing where to sit with medicine Why the medicine keeps showing you the same lesson over and over—what ayahuasca means by "doing your homework on the teacher's desk" Concrete integration practices that actually work—beyond just meditation and journaling, the physical actions required to embody your insights How power gets abused behind the altar and what Kat learned from being "fired by ayahuasca" after a devastating falling out with her teacher Why death is actually a gift and how making endings sacred transforms our relationship with grief, loss, and transformation When to do solo ceremony work (and why most people shouldn't)—the risks of drinking alone and why community matters How to ask the right question after ceremony: "How am I really feeling?" and why honest answers create the map for your integration work Why you can't think your way to integration—the body must move the energy through dance, yoga, nature, or physical action in the world Meet Tina “Kat” Courtney: https://www.plantmedicinepeople.com/coaches/kat-courtney Where are you on your healing journey? ....
