The Psychedelic Integration Podcast Sinclair Fleetwood | Spiritual Psychedelic Integration Coach

Are you one of those "over my cold, dead body" kind of people? Do you keep hang around things and people that don't serve you like milk in your fridge that went out of date with the Clinton administration? Do you find yourself languishing in relationships or situations long past their best? Are you kind of sad when things have to end and therefore grasp onto them so tight that maybe it just doesn't have to be true?

On this week's episode of The Psychedelic Integration Podcast, we're going on a journey of self-discovery centered around the heroic act of letting go. Learn about why you hold on—the fear of the unknown, uncertainty, pain, and transition and how these fears often manifest as clinging to the familiar. Sometimes so tightly that it's hindering your growth and preventing you from fully embracing life's unfolding mysteries.

Holding on is protective in nature and it's important to approach our clinging with empathy for the ways we seek security when everything falls apart.  It's okay to acknowledge your holding patterns and explore the narratives that have shaped your relationships, both with others and with yourself.

Today we'll lean into the profound wisdom that lies in releasing your grip on attachment, inviting you to let go with grace and hold on lightly. When you begin to allow, you can start trusting in the flow of life's unfolding journey. Refresh yourself around how radical acceptance in the present moment encourages you to embrace all of your feelings, allowing them to move through you with compassion and understanding.

Let's co-create a space of deep introspection and self-reflection. Claim the beauty in owning your truth and finding trust and authenticity, no matter what changes come. It's time to clean your fucking house an clear away the clutter of outdated beliefs so that you can step into a newfound sense of sovereignty, capacity, and joy.

In this episode of The Psychedelic Integration Podcast, we dive into the essence of preparation for plant medicine journeys. Are you ready for plant medicine? How do you know? What does it mean to establish readiness? And when do you know?

We'll explore the transformative potential of psychedelics, and get clarity on the importance of being truly ready for the experience. Ceremony and intention are gifts that we have long been disconnected from in our modern life.  It's time to start questioning hustle culture, urgency, overwhelm, and how that interferes with walking a deliberate path of presence and consciousness. If we are distracted and attached to specific outcomes, it makes it nearly impossible to actually receive the teachings of the ancient consciousness of plants. 

Learn about the role of sacred reciprocity and humility in approaching medicine work. To do this work in a way that is beneficial there is a necessity of managing expectations, cultivating patience, and embracing the journey as it unfolds. Trusting the process and letting go of attachment to outcomes emerge as central themes, alongside the importance of self-care and introspection.

Join me as we navigate the sometimes unfamiliar terrain of measuring your readiness, recognizing it as a pivotal factor in ensuring meaningful and transformative psychedelic experiences.

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.

Daddy issues anyone?

This week I'm peeling back the layers of the heart scars that stick with us from moments of feeling abandoned, neglected, or flat-out rejected.

From the emotional gut punches to the mind games, we'll dive into why this core wound creates such a long lasting echo, often becoming one of the most defining aspects of our entire lives.

I share some examples from my own abandonment drama with my brilliant and troubled father, showing how those early episodes shape our beliefs and behaviors well into adulthood.

Learn how these abandonment wounds sneak their way into every part of our behavior and personality, turning some of us into people-pleasing perfectionists on a quest for that elusive gold star of external validation.

Oh, and did I mention the joyride of unworthiness and never feeling quite good enough? Yeah, we're shining a light on that too, seeing how it seeps into our relationships and attachment styles, keeping that abandonment hamster wheel spinning.

But not to fear, there's hope in the form of the healing salve of radical self-acceptance. Taking a hard look in the mirror, and doling out forgiveness like Halloween candy. By the end of this show, you'll be ready to tackle your abandonment demons head-on, transforming not just your own life but also spreading that love and healing to everyone around you.
