Psilocybin journeys aren’t one-size-fits-all. From subtle microdosing support to deep transformative dives, each path holds unique potential for healing and growth. Becca shares how Emotional Liberation practices, when paired with the gentle ally of psilocybin, can guide you toward clarity, release, and lasting change – whether you’re taking your very first steps or venturing further on your inner journey.
The Beatles’ psychedelic years revealed how quickly insights can fade without grounding. Today, the lesson is clearer: psychedelics paired with integration create lasting transformation. Microdosing, full journeys, or a blend of both can each be powerful when guided with intention and woven into daily life, turning fleeting moments of awareness into steady growth and meaningful change.
From cardboard wars in Portugal to old inner voices I thought I’d packed away, this season has been about more than pool dreaming about floats – it’s been about loosening shame’s grip and finding real freedom.
Is it healing, or just a really pretty way to avoid your feelings? From retreat mats to festival dance floors, psychedelics are often framed as tools for healing and transformation – but they’re just as often used as another way to mentally check out.
Two weeks. Scorching temps. Forty thousand people vibrating to trance in the Portuguese sun. Boom Festival felt like stepping into another world where glitter is clothing, hugs are sacred, and your only job is to immerse yourself in the experience.

Letting go of comfort is easy to romanticize from a distance. But as I prepare to spend two weeks off-grid, I know there’s no script for what’s ahead. This isn’t the kind of journey you plan down to the detail – it’s the kind where you show up, let go, and see what emerges when convenience falls away.
There’s nothing like being abroad on the 4th of July to remind you how strange patriotism can be. From here, the holiday looks less like a celebration and more like a performance. Love of country doesn’t mean ignoring the mess — it might mean finally acknowledging it.
I recently had one of those days where nothing seemed to go smoothly – a string of mishaps that kept piling on. It stirred up the memory of a particularly hectic day that I wrote about back at the end of 2022 (funny how certain moments stay crystal clear over the years).
