Episode 128: Exploring The Sacred Powers of Ayahuasca (feat. Carlos Tanner)

This One Time On Psychedelics

It is no secret that the world of plant medicines is exploding in popularity at the present time. More & more people are switching from the normal protocols associated with areas of life such as mental health, physical health & spirituality as a whole & are instead looking to engage with these ancient modalities for outcomes such as healing, self awareness, etc. This being said, many are finding that within this current popularization, there are more & more practitioners coming forth, some of whom have no formal training & are endangering those they are choosing to serve, instead of helping them. With this challenge, it has brought light to the importance of being able to find organizations & individuals within those organizations that are truly fit to not only serve the medicine, but also to serve those who come to them thereafter with integration plans, follow ups, etc. Todays guest on the show is someone I am extremely excited to chat with as he has dedicated his life to not only making this goal a reality within his business, the Ayahuasca foundation, which he began in 2008, but to also allow those who come to experience the FULL tradition associated with the medicine of Ayahuasca, indigenous wisdom & culture, & Peruvian culture as a whole. For those of you currently seeking a center that you can experience these traditions within & also sign up for courses, training, etc., this is an episode you will surely want to dive into!
