What comes after the trip is often called “integration” and it’s even more important than the trip. The medicine (and any other form of support like therapists, etc.) can only show you the path to healing yourself, the actual work of healing yourself can only be done by you. The idea that the lessons seem profound, is rooted in the idea of ego death and listening to your higher self. As the medicine wears off the ego returns. Your intention makes a huge difference too. If you take the medicine with the intention of healing, or with a healing guide like a shaman or medicine worker they can help support you through the integration.
