This is because the conduction of stimuli works differently. During a psychedelic trip, certain brain areas can communicate directly with each other. Certain associations can produce visual images, such as seeing the music. A hallucination can therefore be influenced by the sensory input during the trip. The trip is therefore a combination of the connection with the subconscious and associations from the senses.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2253\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2253\" style=\"width: 962px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2253\" src=\"https:\/\/triptherapie.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Psychedelische-therapie-muziek-geur-kleuren.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"962\" height=\"541\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/triptherapie.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Psychedelische-therapie-muziek-geur-kleuren.png 962w, https:\/\/triptherapie.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Psychedelische-therapie-muziek-geur-kleuren-300x169.avif 300w, https:\/\/triptherapie.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Psychedelische-therapie-muziek-geur-kleuren-768x432.avif 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 962px) 100vw, 962px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2253\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">During psychedelic therapy, colours, smells, music and texts play a major role<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"zintuigen-stimuleren-tijdens-psychedelische-therapie\">Stimulating the senses during psychedelic therapy<\/h2>\n<p>Evoking associations during a therapeutic psychedelic session is what you want to achieve in order to find solutions that lie within the subconscious. Sounds, smells, texts, and music always have a connection or a place in the brain, and they activate the parts of the brain we want to use to overcome psychological issues.
