What do you do leading up to and during the come-up?

What do you guys do during these two periods? I find them both rather odd and would like some advice if you've got it

I generally pray and then listen to a recording of the Psychedelic Experience by Leary Alpert and Metzner. I find this book almost always helps me to get into the right mindset for tripping.

Depends. If I'm with friends, try a simple card game, getting some good music together and changing into comfortable clothes if you're at home. Also, getting a movie ready so you just have to hit play is a good idea if your group can handle being stationary for a couple hours. Cleaning just a bit can be a good idea as well. I tend to lay on the floor when I trip hard and sometimes it's not the best spot to do so. Sometimes just sweeping the floor can make a huge difference in what you see and feel while way out there. I also like to light a ton of candles as the flame is always where I look to first to see images starting to change (you know, how the star comes off of light). I only use those candles in the big glass jars though as they're fairly safe if you get distracted and forget to burn them out. They're also great if you use different flavors in different rooms. Really adds perspective change when you move from room to room. Just use caution if setting up flames.
Lastly, I lock the doors. While some can handle public situations, I find that the more I roam when tripping the more trouble I get into.
If tripping solo, I generally do it when the weather is nice and I can just go garden a bit. Nature really helps bring me up!

I like just laying in bed with my eyes closed watching it work it way through purifying/cleansing my system. I find this allows it to dig deeper and i always come out feeling clear and refreshed. Prior to actually dosing i like to do yoga, get some fresh air and meditate.
If i take a stiff dose of psilocybin and try to sit up with my eyes open it's usually nauseating and feels quite strange, as if i can't decide what to do with myself, but as soon as i lay down and close my eyes it's magnificent.

I try to just talk to my friends or get really into whatever music is playing
Getting all in your head at the start of a trip is the worst

If you get confused, listen to the music play

Leading up to the trip I sit and do a bit of a moral inventory, then during the peak I generally roll around naked and cry, laugh, puke, and try to listen.

I like to walk down to the beach, drink a few beers and wait for the lights across the bay to get that extra sparkle!
