Higher consciousness dates back to pre Christian times. At least to the time of Hermes Trismegistus and the Hermetica. Likely thousands of years before that.
It's not new age, it's ancient.
Higher consciousness
All you're describing is people on drugs. People have been doing drugs for a very long time that's true.
It doesn't change the fact that you are wrong to call it "new age". I've never done it myself, so I have no idea what it is like. It just isn't new.
Psychedelics make me feel something unexplainable that’s for sure
