Our consciousness is always on a journey, both in everyday reality as well as when we have psychedelic experiences. Entering into these magical psychedelic realms can either be a dangerous adventure or a rewarding exploration, and that is up to you. Preparation and integration are the essential tools for you to get the most out of your psychedelic journey, and knowing what they are and how to use them is part of every consciousness explorer's indispensable toolbox.

The book has three parts: Map, Preparation and Integration.

The Map shows an overview where landmarks can be identified, which is extremely necessary while in the unpredictable psychedelic reality. Preparation goes beyond the basic safety rules of set & setting; it is meant to steer the trip in the desired direction and thus facilitate the subsequent Integration, which occurs when you rebalance your emotions and bring what you learned on the journey back into your daily life.

How do you do that? This book is made especially for you; it is both a guide for the journey of your consciousness in the psychedelic reality but also in the ordinary state of consciousness. As such, it will help you to prepare and integrate any experience. Psychedelic, the "manifestation of the psyche," means that the journey happens within you. This book is a guide to becoming more present with yourself during your work with these substances, facilitating your reconnection with Soul and the authentic experience we are having on this planet.

Psychedelics have the power to provide us with the direct experience of temporary states of Awakening, where we experience Presence - in the here and now - and the Opening of the Heart. This state of grace cannot be induced, but can be fostered using will, knowledge and action. The real magic of mushrooms and natural psychoactive substances is revealed when we free ourselves from the day-to-day mental and emotional filters and can finally contemplate and rejoice in the infinite beauty and perfection of existence. This is the wish for anyone who will read and use this book.
