Preparation and Integration Tools for Psychedelic Experiences

MAPS Integration Station Workbook and Synthesized Model of Integration

At Birthing an Ancient Future – Multidisciplinary Psychedelic Council, we believe that integration is a critical component of the safe and effective use of psychedelics. This process allows us to bring the lessons of our psychedelic experiences into daily life, ensuring we thoroughly learn and grow from what the substances show us.

Solid Preparation before and Deep Integration during and in the aftermath of a psychedelic experience in a safe setting are core pillars for the enhancement of the transformational journey. Such a spectrum of skills constitutes core pillars of our educational and experiential psychedelic-assisted retreat programs in personalized individual sessions, couples, small groups, teams, and group retreats.

  • Cover of a publication titled 'Maps Integration Station: A Journey Beyond the Psychedelic: Embracing Transformation Through Mindful Integration' with geometric origami-style illustrations of a purple swan and a green dragonfly on a dark purple background.

  • Text explaining what psychedelic integration is, emphasizing its importance in psychedelic healing, and describing how it can be done independently or with support from peers, community, coaches, or therapists.

  • A quote about integration explaining it as a bridge between revelation and change, promoting personal growth and deeper connection, followed by a question 'Why Integrate?' on a dark purple background.

  • A digital graphic with purple text on a dark background that says, 'Download our free workbook' with an icon of a document and cursor and a URL at the bottom: maps.org/integration-station/.

We are excited to share this new resource published open access by the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) Integration Station uses the synthesized model of integration that Sana clinicians Geoff Bathje and Eric Majeski, and friend of Sana, Mesphina Kudowor, LPC, NCC, wrote about in their article about Psychedelic integration! You can find the full article linked throughout Integration Station.

This resource helps to demystify integration and provides a user-friendly tool (the downloadable workbook) to help guide you through your integration process.

The MAPS website and downloadable workbook dedicated to integration techniques aim to help people process, understand, and incorporate psychedelic insights into daily life.
