Letting Self go...

[Kike May]

How does one let their self go...

just clear the mind of everything that troubles it before smoking a 50mg dose of n-n DMT.


I noticed today that my 3rd trip was still the same.
Figures trying to show me something, take me somewhere, or take my hand,
and I just reject them. Although today during my trip when the figures reached out yet again, I thought of responding ! and I couldn't !
I even reached out with my real hand but no.. nothing happened.


How can I let my self go :|

It's a lot like when you go to those "drive thru" car washes...the person working there tells you to put the car in neutral, and don't touch the steering wheel or brakes...just go with it.

that's what my mindset is,
im not afraid of the trip,
but it's more like real life thoughts show up for example during the trip it felt as if people were next to me and that sort of scared me,
as a friend was with me, and I thought someone just walked into the room and was disturbing me, I head earbuds on so I couldn't tell what was really happening.
my friend was actually just standing still not doing anything...

If you're resisting or attempting to impose control in any way shape or form on the experience, then you still haven't fully let go.

IMO this is where meditation helps. If these thoughts come to mind, you don't have to tend to them.

Watch them, don't actively try not to think. Just sit, be mindful, let go. If the thoughts come, let them come, don't pick them up.

I practice this very often when walking. It's slow enough that the activity itself doesn't demand concentration (like fast cycling/driving or skiing).. so thoughts will come, if you do a 30min daily walk, besides being healthy, it's a good way to improve this skill (it is a skill, you'll get better with practice)

that's some good advice, thanks

I'm not sure where to start with meditating.

I've done some simple exercises before but I'd want actual indepth guide on how to start and practice every day :O

I just don't know how to go about meditating.. does anyone have any links?

Well just letting go is harder then what must people believe to be. Seeing as we all come from different walks of life and have different passes this makes it extremely hard to give advice to someone else about letting go during a psychedelic trip. I remember countless times doing a psychedelic with someone and trying to get them to break through or let go as some call it. I ask them the following questions as i shall ask you the same. Think about these questions let them resound in your mind and perhaps meditate on them to assist yourself in letting go:

1. When you think of reality, what do you think of?
2. DO you have some inner conflict that may or may not be hindering your psychedelic experience? If so, then perhaps face that inner conflict and try to come to some form of inner peace within your self.
3. Do you think that perhaps you have a fear of letting go?
4. why is it hard to let go? Examples and thoughts on this

Now after you answer these questions and think about them next time you do a psychedelic experience try these tips that always works for me

--Before you even do travel into hyperspace (i have adopted this term from this site) meditate and try to clear your mind of all the inner "clutter"
--take deep breaths and try to find some relaxation within yourself. If this is hard perhaps listen to some relaxing guided meditation tracks such as

(i would suggest listening to it before you start to trip so there is no one speaking...i have done this while doing a trip and it works wonders to relax my mind)
--make sure you are in a area with high positive energy. Some people may or may not believe this but energy throughout the world is different and some places just send off the wrong energy.
--Once you feel relaxed and calm then enter the hyperspace.
--If you find yourself not entering deep as you like then perhaps the universe does not want you to go that deep at the moment and perhaps you should try out why inside of yourself

I hope that this may assist you in some way shape or form. If you ever need some more advice feel free to PM me

all solid advice.

but end game it can get tricky. truly there is no self for you to really let go of in the first place.

What if we can't let go, not because we are scared to, but because it is constant on our minds? There is no inner-peace with this, ahh, ill just try harder, there has to be an inner-peace with all things, right?

There will always be inner peace if you follow it. One must take the first step to inner peace by discovering what inner peace means to them.

I had the same problem on shrooms I could not give the whole experienence way. I had dozens of trips and couldn't manage to let loose but the last trip was different. I still had thoughts about things which deeply bother me etc. but I could let go. So what I realized is that we may not want to give out the control because we think a bad experience could hurt us but before this trip I thought long about these bad aspects and really there are no bad trips. I mean the best thing is that something would come up what you don't want to think about normally because then you are released from it after the trip. So if you know that falling makes it better afterwards so what's the reason to avoid falling. That was it for me knowing that everything what happens is already there it just a question if you are afraid of confronting it. I haven't tried it but I could imagine that mood is nothing which influences set, now I think set is more your general mindset how you cope with feelings etc. Another thing I realized on shrooms was that I was always running, searching for a better place etc. I think letting it go means also to stay at the place where you are right now. I mean the whole experience is not abpout the weird stuff which surrounds you, it is you and where ever you go you will be the same.

I don't know how much this can help you for a DMT trip because I didn't have mine yet. But I think just take what ever comes, if it's good, bad, pleasant, scary, dark or bright it's always you and it was always there, so no reason to worry about it.

A shroom trip can teach many aspects of useful knowledge about mastering life. Firstly when you are tripping, simply relax all your expectations. Whatever happens happens. It is what it is. Trying to resist it will only cause you discomfort. Don't try to judge what is happening either, just let it do it's thing that it knows is best for you, it is what it is, nothing more, nothing less. All the shroom trip is doing is allowing you to connect in a very direct way to YOURSELF. When you fight a shroom trip, you are simply fighting yourself.

-A shroom trip goes beyond regular thinking and is a far more intelligent and honest experience, so when you try to 'think it out' whilst it's happening, you're compromising a learning experience with your own limiting beliefs and fears, and doing yourself a great injustice. Shut up the thinking and judging (that you learnt from who knows what), and listen to the TRUE voice of your inner self.

-We make experiences in life, and they are simply what they are, just experiences. It's when we start to label them as good or bad that we start to create fears. Shrooms remove the labels and allow us to realise that there was never any need to be fearful.

-This is the WHOLE point of a shroom trip, to learn some real "HOME TRUTHS", that are truly aligned to your inner self.

-Have faith in yourself, let it ride: cos you are simply learning to overcome your fears, and re-connect to your true nature. 8)
