Dr. Rosalind Watts explains that psychedelic therapy doesn't erase pain or stop hard times, but creates temporary relief like a spring after winter. The real work is integration: breath work, community, and follow-up sessions that help you cycle through emotions healthily instead of staying stuck in depression.

I think what I've realized is that psychedelic therapy doesn't really take away pain. It doesn't take away difficult experiences. It doesn't take away. It's not going to stop you from going through really difficult times in your life. The darkness and the light and the winters and springs. It's not going to stop you having winters. So often people with depression, they would have a psychedelic experience, and they would feel like they kind of go into spring and summer for a while, and then it would fade into autumn and winter. But if they can access breath work or an integration community or further sessions, then I think it's possible to come into a rhythm when they're also having springs and summers as well as winters. So to come into something that is more in the flow of nature, rather than being stuck in a winter that never ends.
