Meditation Trips: A Thematic Analysis of the Combined Naturalistic Use of Psychedelics With Meditation Practices

This survey study (n=1315) of psychedelic users finds that a majority (67%) also meditated and nearly 40% combined both. From written accounts (n=256), six themes were identified, including compatibility between states, enhancement of experiences, positive changes in relating to the world, negative effects, meditation as a preparatory tool, and contextual considerations. Findings suggest meditation techniques could facilitate combining psychedelics, enabling lower, therapeutically important doses.
