The Psychedelic Integration Podcast

Do you feel like a fraud? Are you unable to celebrate your success and accomplishments in earnest because deep down you're terrified that everyone is going to find out you're some kind of imposter? Do you often feel crippled by self-doubt, even though you have achieved amazing things, people love you, and you're actually awesome? Today on this episode of the Psychedelic Integration Podcast, we're confronting imposter syndrome, self-doubt, and the relentless energy suck of not being good enough.

Life is hard enough without having every step feel clouded by the fear of being seen and judged. Self-doubt can sneakily stand between you and everything you want. Yes, even for people who seem to have it all sorted out. Learn how this fear of failure keeps you stuck, and explore how old wounds from the past can manifest as people-pleasing, perfectionism, and procrastination.

With the help of plant medicine, you can discover how to pinpoint where you need to focus your attention and initiate some serious rewiring. Psychedelics have the power to change everything—if you're ready for it.

Together, we'll uncover how to create fundamental belief in yourself, cultivate self-trust, and reconnect with your inner spirit. Get ready to shift the energy of imposter syndrome and self-doubt, and become your own biggest fan. 

WORK WITH SINCLAIR

Christiana Schelfout is a healing artist raised between Portugal and New York by an Irish American mother and a German father. She lived firstly in the wild, windswept Algarve, and then in the lush Long Island suburbs. Communion with nature and self-expression through song, dance, art, and theater were her basis for self-regulation and expansion. 

At 20, a call for healing brought her to the study and practice of classical yoga and tantra. In traveling to the origins of global spiritual traditions and connecting with her ancestry, she was awakened to the world of spiritual herbalism and ceremony. These traditions led her down a path of inquiry into the healing potential of the descension process, devotion to the body, earth and mother. This was supported by studying matriarchal histories, women’s health and birth. 

Today, through the support of her community, she shares the experience of soul directed living, healing and wellbeing. Christiana carries the embodied experience of recovering from mental and physical illness. In 2018, after five years of community based offerings, she spent four years creating and then leading the yoga and retreat programs at Shou Sugi Ban House, a multidimensional wellness center in New York. Over a decade of student-ship and work experience in holistic healing and curation support the vision of Animate Healing. 

On this week's show, Christiana and I meander through the nuances of presence found through sound healing, cultivating patience, and exploring the mystery of womanhood, moon blood, how bone broth is Nature's nourishing elixir, and more. Christiana is such a gift to my life and I'm so grateful to share her heart wisdom with you.

This week we're dancing our faces off in an exploration of the transformative power healing through movement. In this episode, we get deep into the intrinsic connection between movement and the human experience. From the joyous rhythm of childhood play to the profound expression of emotion through dance, movement is an essential aspect of our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

As we navigate the complexities of modern society, we often find ourselves disconnected from the natural flow of movement. Our sedentary lifestyles and hectic schedules can strip away the joy and vitality that movement once brought us, turning it into a punishing chore rather than a source of pleasure. Today you'll learn how to explore gentle starting points like yoga and walking, helping you rediscover the joy of movement in your everyday life.

We'll also dabble in the fascinating science behind movement and its profound impact on brain health and neuroplasticity. From the Gen X rave culture of nostalgia and safety seeking to the cathartic release of ecstatic dance in community, we'll dive into the emotional and spiritual dimensions of movement. Get ready to dance like no one is watching, open your heart to the rhythm of change, and move your way to deeper healing, creativity, and connection.

This week we're exploring the concept of The Sacred Witness. The Observer. The nonjudgmental higher self that lives deep in the center of each of us. It's the presence in us, the calm, wise, sage part of us who's just watching all this. Abraham Hicks calls it your Inner Being. You might hear it called your Highest Self. It's the sacred, holy, all-knowing, almighty, All-That-Is part of you. The part that can see everything, that knows everything, and that is free from attachment, worry, or blame.  

The sacred witness is like having your own mentor observing all that unfolds within and around you. Nudging you to detach from ego and identify with your higher consciousness.

In this episode, you'll learn about all the ways the sacred witness guides us through life's twists and turns. It's about being present, accepting, and lovingly observing yourself without judgment. Through this practice, we navigate the murky waters of change, integrating old patterns with newfound wisdom. So, if you're seeking spiritual growth, hop on board the sacred witness train—it's a gentle, yet profound journey toward wholeness and authenticity.

Addiction is a monster. It steals your money. Your time. Your dignity. Your health. Your love. Your presence. It is a false friend that leaves you in a perpetual state of disconnection, suffering, and despair. I believe addiction is one of the most difficult challenges to heal in the human experience. It ravages everything in its wake, and our current model of support isn't working. So many people are finding their way to plant medicine and psychedelics in desperation to be liberated from the pain of addiction.

In this episode, I'm sharing vulnerable scenes from my personal journey of soul liberation from a life of addiction and self-destruction to finding healing, self-love, and purpose. The truth about overcoming addiction is that it's only the first step in repairing your relationship to Spirit and with yourself. 

You are the only one who can decide you've had enough. But what if it was also your teacher? Your healer? Addiction is healable. It is overcomeable.  It's your own personal portal into a deep spiritual transformation that will show you your purpose and give your life new meaning. Come with me on a journey of hope and healing as we walk through the valley of the shadow with addiction and find our way back to the light.

Need support on your journey out of the dark? I'm here to help.

How do you find the motivation to get started or keep going on the spiritual healing path? In this episode, dig into a pep talk for your spiritual glow up to help you take the leap and get started on your healing and expansion journey.

You'll learn the importance of starting where you are and taking an honest self-inventory so that you can orient yourself and manage your expectations. We''ll talk about overcoming fear with willingness and radical self-acceptance. And explore the ongoing process of ego death and how to stay the course when it feels like you can't keep going.

Get practical tips for navigating the challenges of making a massive life transformation so you can handle whatever comes your way with grace, ease, and a great sense of humor.

Welcome to Season 4 of The Psychedelic Integration Podcast, where I share about my choice to change the name of the show and how to navigate big transitions. I'm Sinclair Fleetwood, your spiritual coach, ceremonialist, and psychedelic integration queen. Walk with me on the sacred bridge of transition and learn how to support yourself through times of unraveling so you can build your capacity and become more resilient. 

Today's episode is all about understanding anxiety and learning exactly what steps to take to take back control of your experience. How to transform anxiety is first allowing it to be there. To understand that the resistance and the avoidance and the fighting it is not the solution. Learn about flight, freeze, fawn, and fight responses, and the relationship between chronic pain, fear, chronic illness, and anxiety.  According to Dr. Gabor Maté, repressing your authenticity is one of the highest indicators of whether or not you will have chronic illness. 

Can you lay down your sword? Can you invite the anxiety in to stay a while? Can you meet it with non-judgment and acceptance? Can you open to have a different relationship with the anxiety that is more indifferent? More zen and chill? Let's dig into how to do this in this episode.

Also, listen to the end to hear the juicy news bomb about the future of this podcast and what's coming next. 

I learned about the beautiful and simple principle of Ayni: sacred reciprocity while I lived in Ecuador. Ayni is a Quechua word and concept that is the backbone of the worldview in their ancestral culture. The Quechua people are the descendants of the Inca people who are native to Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina. In the teaching of ayni, they live in a commitment of mutualism that is beneficial to all the beings and the Earth itself. You can always feel safe to give because that energy will always be returned to you. This is much different than the transactional way we live in modern society.

In this episode, I explore the concept of sacred reciprocity, how it is our duty and gift of giving back to do integration work, and how this principle can reach into every area of your life. 

What do the holidays, overdoing it, and not enoughness have in common? An undercurrent of needing to be perfect, do it right, impress your friends and family, and make things nice. Because that's how you've always done it. But when you start following a spiritual path and questioning the origins of these customs and traditions we follow, you might be like me and start wondering, "Why am I trying so fucking hard?" In this episode I share about a big fat epiphany I had yesterday after eating too much Thanksgiving food, and I explore the details of what it looks like to do spiritual healing on yourself in real time. We are not doomed to keep repeating our mistakes. We have the power to change the things we want to change, and to investigate these protective coping mechanisms and find something softer and more beneficial. Let's let go of striving and efforting and not enoughness this holiday season and let it be easy.

Unless you've been living under a rock, you might have noticed that there is a lot of heavy and hard shit going on in the world at the moment. When the foundation of the system begins to crack and fail, it can cause anxiety and panic. The thing is, in order for the new way of life to take root, the old one has to crumble away. Dying empires don't typically make their final exit without a lot of brutal struggle. This process can be long and slow, and often big avalanches of change come fast and hard. It may feel like everything is a dumpster fire and there's nothing you can do about it. You may feel lost or afraid or even paralyzed, afraid to move or speak out. In this episode, I'm offering hope for dark times. A heartfelt acknowledgement of the pain and suffering that's occurring in Gaza, and a simple path to finding that ray of light in your own heart so that you can keep going. Put your mask on first, so that you can be a lightbearer in a dark world.

Does it feel like EVERYTHING is a contest? The vibe of scarcity, not enoughness, and needing to win at all costs is pervasive in our culture. But where did it come from? Why is everything a competition? It actually doesn't have to be this way. Saying NO to competition and comparison is a deep deprogramming that you can start doing right now in your own life. In order to have a better world, we have to believe that it's possible. Many people on the spiritual path are waking up to the understanding that not only does competition not resonate, it's harmful and feels shitty and we don't need it. 

Psychedelics are here to show us the path to a new understanding. In this episode, learn how competition and comparison run in the background of our society and why it's each of our responsibility to invite the vibration of collaboration, co-creation, and belonging into our lives instead.

Rea Beaubien is a medicine woman, ceremonialist, healer, and artist. For more than 20 years she has been a mother, spiritual seeker, and facilitator of ancient rituals in the mountains of Crestone, Colorado. She shares sacred awareness teachings locally and globally, inspiring others to transform. This work brings forth positive and lasting changes contributing to a brighter world. Rea’s mission is rekindling our connection to and nurturing the Divine Feminine as was spoken of in prophecies. She believes that in this shared renaissance we are coaxed to return to who we really are. To play, listen, express, believe, get dirty, surrender – and most of all – to feel. As a result of visions and teachings received under lineages of North America, Rea created Heart of Ma, a global community providing sacred plant medicine retreats for more that 20 years. Heart of Ma offers the opportunity to safely transform, ground, and heal.

In this episode, Rea boldly shares about the toll the medicine path can take on the health and wellness of facilitators and space holders, her difficult decision to slow down and take a break, and her thoughts about the fast-paced, often reckless psychedelic revolution that is happening now. 

Do you feel like no matter what you do or what practices you implement or how hard you try, you never REALLY feel satisfied? Does it always feel like there is some problem to fix or dragon to slay? Have you ever considered that you might be oriented toward suffering because that's what feels safe? What if you could learn the cure for perpetual dissatisfaction and finally give yourself permission to thrive and be free?

Welcome to the party, friends. The thing is, modern society is designed to make it impossible for you to feel good.

You are constantly being bombarded with messages of lack, planting a forest of confusion inside your mind that tells you no matter what you do, what you have, or how much you accomplish... it's just not THE THING THAT WILL FINALLY MAKE YOU HAPPY.

You can check all the "supposed to" boxes and still feel like nothing is ever actually okay. (Because the programmed path isn't cutting the mustard for people who are waking up. We know materialism, hustling, and looking outside ourselves for meaning is a soulless pursuit that leads to catastrophic emptiness.)

In this episode, I'm digging into this ultra-common and ever prevalent feeling of impending doom that has so many highly sensitive and gifted spiritual people feeling hopeless and ready to give up. And I'll share what you can do instead of hiding your beautiful weirdness so no one can make you feel bad about being you.

Erin Doumert is a Religious Trauma Recovery Guide and a Psychedelic Integration Specialist based in Phoenix, Arizona. She helps women in overcoming religious trauma so that they can live fulfilling lives free from the limitations of their past. With her guidance and the aid of psychedelics and somatic experiencing, women can release the pain, discover their true selves, and live with confidence and joy.

Erin started exploring psychedelics in 2008 in her early 20s, developing a deep relationship with psychedelic medicines, and began having profound healing experiences. As someone who has experienced religious trauma firsthand, she understands just how painful and complex the healing process can be. For many people who have experienced religious trauma, the journey towards healing can be a long and challenging one. But with the right tools and support, it is possible to move past the hurt and begin to rebuild a sense of trust and connection with yourself and with others. As a Psychedelic Integration Specialist and a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Erin provides a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can explore your inner world, confront your pain, and ultimately find a path towards healing and growth.

I don't know about y'all, but I'm bored with the whole struggle, suffer, cowering in fear, stagnation thing. The thing is, we aren't meant to stay stuck in our patterns and past forever. We have the power to choose something much more radical and beneficial. So how do you trust fall into the arms of the Universe? What if the answer to the problem is inside the problem, rather than in resisting it or seeking to solve it? Today I am sharing more about the restorative integration path, and how you can choose to lean into your biggest challenges. We're going to meander through thought patterns, values systems, and beliefs and start asking, "How can I trust the Universe here? How can I let go? How can I be still and listen?"

The joy of missing out, or JOMO, is the hot, sexy, good feeling, "I'm a badass" antithesis to fear of missing out (FOMO). It's about practicing self-trust, self-confidence, intuition, and following the beat of your own drum. It's knowing that you can't miss out on something you are meant to experience. It's taking pleasure in your own path, and relishing the small moments that life has to offer you each and every day. JOMO is a vibe of following your own bliss. And today we're going to get into how to make the shift to choosing joy and love over fear.

In this episode, Sinclair shares about:

• FOMO, fear of missing out is essentially a lack of belonging
• JOMO, the joy of missing out, when you trust yourself and lean into your inner power
• JOMO comes up as a choice of a different mindset on the medicine path
• Beginning to question your belief system, your values, and your mindset as you expand on the medicine path
• Example of me not attending the MAPS Psychedelics and Science Conference
• Getting a gut feeling, feeling resistance in the body is a clue to something not being for you
• You can feel JOMO in yourself, AND be excited for other people to have their experiences
• JOMO is a choice and often is accompanied by some FOMO as well, especially as you are learning to choose joy over fear
• The importance of science as the language of trying to understand God 
• Choosing your path, leaning into the joy of missing out, and putting both feet into the spiritual path, the medicine path, the healing path
• Trusting your own vibe, your medicine, and your heart
• Starting to check in with your body, tuning into the subtle language of your body and nervous system
• Most of our behaviors, beliefs, and what drives our actions are unconscious
• Paying attention to how it feels in your body and heart
• Learning how to tune into glimmers, the opposite of triggers
• Glimmers are little signals of joy that come in the hundreds every day
• You can choose how you feel and where you put your attention
• The monkey mind, the inner voice, the Default Mode Network and when it is activated
• Meditation as a way you can start to become the master of your monkey mind
• Using psychedelics to turn off the inner critic, to choose love over fear
• Changing things a little bit at a time, making small changes and being consistent
• Choosing to trust yourself over whatever is going on outside of you
• Taking joy and savoring little moments, doing alchemy all day every day

The tyranny of perfectionism is that it overtakes your authenticity and drowns out your uniqueness. It can become a debilitating way that we cause violence and self-harm to ourselves. Perfectionism is touted as this wonderful trait, but it's truly a path to anxiety, not enoughness, and pain. And while perfectionism can often inspire hard work and excellence, it's time to ask yourself, "At what cost?" This episode digs into how perfectionism can be a tool of self-criticism and paralysis that creates a state of constant disappointment. Because by definition, perfection is not attainable or sustainable. Learn how to honor your perfectionism and make the shift to a more gentle, soft, and allowing way of being instead.

4 Workshops in 4 Weeks

Starting June 22nd

My client Cindy is not who you would expect to be on the path of healing with psychedelics. She's retired, and lives a tranquil life with her husband and puppy dog, teaching yoga by donation in support of local cancer patients. She's a loving wife, mother, and grandmother, who loves to hold gatherings and be the nurturer and rock for her friends and family. On the outside, Cindy has a beautiful, full life full of family, abundance, and blessings. But inside, she was carrying a dark secret. When I met her last year, Cindy had been struggling with disordered eating, bulimia, alcohol, and self-harming behaviors for decades. She suffered from PTSD sustained as a result of childhood abuse. And while she looked like everything was perfect, she came to me ready to do the deep inner work of finding self-love and healing her trauma so that she could remember her own power and be truly present for herself and her family.

I often share about the logistics and behind the scenes experience of working as a self-employed psychedelic life coach in the medicine space. This episode is dedicated to letting you in on how I am shifting my business toward creating equity and accessibility. I have avoided this area for a long time because I wasn't sure how to do it. I was afraid of doing it wrong, of still excluding people, and of being judged for anything I attempted in this realm. What I have realized is that healing cannot exist without attention to equity and accessibility. If it's not open to everyone, it's not really the service I want to offer deep in my heart. At least that's how I feel about my work. Starting today, I am shifting my pricing model to sliding scale, and releasing two digital courses for self-study DIY work you can do all on your own.

I want to live at the intersection of financial abundance and safety for myself and my family, AND serving at a level that feels within reach for more than just folks with economic privilege. I know this isn't perfect, and I am grateful to be taking my first steps to find resonance. Fairness. And to open the way for more people to access my work in a way that supports you. Thanks for listening and being part of my spirit family.

Learn more about my NEW digital courses, deep dive single sessions, and 1:1 coaching on a sliding scale on my website here:

The art of appreciation is a powerful practice you can use to elevate your vibration and lift your mood out of the gutter. But it's often a lot more difficult than it sounds. When you feel stuck in lack, like you don't have control over anything, and nothing seems to be going your way, how do you just decide to be grateful and appreciate everything around you? Today's episode digs into the stuckness that we all feel sometimes, and offers you 3 questions to ask so that you can shift into a more beneficial mindset full of appreciation and bounty.

Pia Sewelies is a friend, medicine sister, and the founder of Our Future is Ancient and Soul Medicine Retreats, ceremonial psilocybin experiences in Mexico. She is a yoga and somatic movement teacher, and a student of non-dual Saiva Tantra and ancient shamanic healing rituals. Pia transmutes ancient practices and traditions into a modern-day language, bridging the gap for deeply transformative and nurturing transcultural healing.

The path of ceremonies and plant healing entered Pia’s life in a moment of personal crisis and overcoming years of severe anxiety and panic attacks. She was called to work with plant medicine, to explore and heal the depths of her suffering.

She found herself in the Amazon and spent extensive time learning from, and working directly with different curanderos in Peru, Ecuador and Mexico. She carries the traditions and teachings she received along her journey with the utmost respect, taking responsibility for the fact that this is a lifelong path of learning and growing.

Pia is a vision quester and devoted to the traditions of The Fuego Sagrado De Itzachilatlan and has fully committed her life to a path of service.

She keeps returning to study and sit in ceremonies with her teachers across the Americas.

Andrew is a ceremonialist and multidisciplinary artist from Long Island, New York. For well over a decade, he has been passionately studying, learning from, and working directly with master plant teachers, ancient ceremonial traditions, and the practice of holistic body-mind healing. While also establishing himself as a successful professional photographer and cinematographer.

Born of Jamaican and Iranian descent, Andrew humbly walks a path of service in order to honor and give thanks to his ancestors and elders. Apprenticing for many years with initiated teachers and elders of several traditions has provided him with an immense respect and understanding of the responsibility of what it is to carry these sacred teachings with the utmost reverence and integrity.

This is a great episode, and I hope y'all enjoy Andrew's humble, gentle wisdom.

Are you tired? Like yes, of course you're tired, but I mean ARE YOU TIRED? Exhausted by the onslaught of doing and going and expressing and running around trying to make sense of this world that is on fast forward?
