In the psychedelic community, we often talk about how we are our own healers—how everything we need to heal is “within.” But more and more, we are learning that the relationships in our lives—from our romantic partners to our parents to our friends, lovers, and broader community—are key to our healing, too. We heal alone and we heal in relationships. We live in a time where loneliness is a pandemic—but, as humans, we’re meant to be in a community and we deserve to feel fully seen. We heal when we have tough conversations, when we learn to support and see each other fully when we trip together (and we talk about our trips together), when we give each other fully-consensual, orgasmic pleasure when we release shame about what we want and need, and when we integrate our psychedelic experiences to break out of relationship cycles we keep finding ourselves in over and over again.
