Meditation and psychedelics

The deeper states of meditation and psychedelic journeys are often compared. There are many similarities, but there are also differences. If both are used wisely, it can do a great deal of good for the mind and body.

Psychedelics as a meditation aid

Whereas meditation releases endogenous psychedelics (likely DMT) in the brain, psychedelics ensure that you reach a meditative state at a deeper level than the average person can achieve with meditation. You could therefore classify psychedelics as an exogenously administered meditative state.

Combining meditation with psychedelics

Psychedelics and meditation go well together. Some meditate on microdoses of psilocybin or LSD, while others meditate on a regular basis and take high doses of psychedelics to reach a new level. Here at Triptherapie, we always recommend making healthy choices regarding psychedelic therapy or ceremonies. Meditation fits very well into a healthy lifestyle, especially if you eat healthily, exercise sufficiently, and sleep well. Psychedelic sessions can help you ultimately make the healthiest choices.
