🌿 Rooted & Rising Podcast — Episode #10

Purposeful Contemplation — The Sacred Pause in Psychedelic Healing

with Dr. Cheri & Ellice Boone

What if the most powerful part of your psychedelic journey isn’t the experience itself… but the pause that comes afterward?

In this episode, Dr. Cheri and Ellice explore Purposeful Contemplation — the sacred, intentional stillness that turns psychedelic insight into lasting transformation. Through the Holistic Integral Therapy (HIT) framework, they reveal how slowing down, listening inward, and creating daily contemplative rituals can help your healing take root and truly evolve.

Whether you’re working with ketamine, psilocybin, MDMA, or deep therapeutic practices, this episode will help you understand the integration window, support neuroplasticity, and anchor your awakening into everyday life.
