Embodied Recovery and Integration

Two years ago, I was lost and unsure of my path, wondering what my next steps would be.

I still remember hearing Danielle Nova speak at an online conference and feeling a spark of recognition. At that time, I was already certified in addiction recovery coaching and psycho-spiritual integration yet I hadn’t met many people weaving recovery work with the intentional use of entheogens.

Something in her words gave me hope. So I reached out.

Danielle, replied with warmth and kindness, and we connected on a call. She listened, encouraged me to follow my vision, and most importantly, she believed in me so much that I was invited to host the recovery meetings of the San Francisco Psy che de lic Society.

Even though I am on the other side of the world, she made space for me. And from that moment on, my journey began to shift. 🌍

For the past two years, on the second Monday of each month at 5am or 4am while in Europe, I’ve woken up to hold these 6pm PST recovery meetings.

Each meeting has been an honor, a deep learning, and a reminder of the incredible healing that unfolds when people are seen, held, and supported as they share their stories and move through recovery.

This work has shaped me just as much as it has shaped the communities I’m serving. Today, I carry lessons from these meetings into life with gratitude and respect for the power of connection, community, and new ways of what most people know recovery can be.

Thank you, Danielle, for your trust as sometimes, when we walk a road that hasn’t yet been created, all we truly need is someone to believe in us.

As Global Psychedelic Week 2025 is getting closer, I want to share both my excitement and a few gifts with my network.

This incredible event brings together 5000+ participants from 100 countries, seven days, infinite perspectives on healing, science, art, and community.

I’ll be joining the panel “Women Reclaiming Space in Psychedelic Healing” where we’ll explore how psychedelics are impacting healing, transformation, and our collective future.

If you’ve ever wished you had the right support during a big life change, what would have helped you most?

There is something beautiful in the sleepiness of winter…

I am reading a book called Focusing by Eugene Gendlin, which was mentioned in the Somatic Plant Medicine Integration program I am part of. Here I found this sentence: “The unconscious is the body.”

After many hours of practice and experiencing the wisdom we all carry within, I tend to believe is true.

I now, understand that the mind can take us so far, and if we want deeper integration and knowing we have to let ourselves be carried by the innate wisdom of our bodies.

This is not an easy job, especially because so many of us, due to different reasons, don’t feel at home in our bodies. To name a few anxiety, depression, panic attacks, chronic pain, addictions, traumas that make it difficult to connect to the body, or even forgetting that we have a body and taking it for granted.

It’s a great journey of learning and exploration of something that we are naturally born to do... feel into our bodies.

I start enjoying so much the wholeness, I am feeling.

The one I will become will catch me.”

We go through many lives in this one life that we have, and what we really seek is who we are, or at least who we want to become.
