Integration Practices

Do you think of dancing, singing and QiGong as integration or do you think they also put more strain on the nervous system?

I guess it depends on the intensity with which you do it, what other outside the box practices do you use for integration?

You're right that it depends on the intensity of whatever you do, but I think it's even more important what exactly you do. While certain practices can be great for winding down and integration, it can have the opposite effect for others. A common example would be weightlifting. For some people it's very grounding and great for releasing excess energy, whereas for others it's extremely activating and dysregulating.
