How do you prefer to manifest or express your psychedelic experiences?
For a long time, I was very into simply experiencing. I felt that adding anything else to the equation was adulterating the purity, but that’s a pile of wasted potential.
Something simple as breathing with awareness and intent, being aware of the air around you, dancing and allowing energy to flow though you… these all count to me anyways.
I’ve been getting back into art and music again more than ever. I used to draw constantly, not even focusing on the outcome of the work as much as getting into the process of creating it. I’ve been starting to put time aside to intently draw or paint; I’m by no means great but it’s another form of active meditation. I’ve also put more intent into playing music, and just fiddling around with the interaction of chord progressions. I’ve played piano for well over a decade, so it’s half muscle memory at this point, and I can just flow around, which is an incredible gift which I fail to utilize more often than not. I've also been allowing it to really interact with the way I socialize with people and react to situations.
So how about everyone else? There’s innumerable ways to express it; and I don’t mean ‘lolz I take drugs, see pretty colors” I mean the experience. Anyway you intently try to communicate that experience to yourself, the world, your dog, whatever.
