Ep. 172 How Early Psychedelic Experiences Can Open You Up To A Psychedelic Life (feat. Dawn Lester)
Manage episode 428511510 series 2913637
Many of us who come to the realm of psychedelic medicines innately understand that much of what we are told is true in our world is completely backwards. From medicine & healthcare, to how we grow our food, our laws, what we understand about consciousness & more, it’s clear that many of us come to these medicines to subtract from the equation of ourselves with all of our beliefs, stories, etc. to have the opportunity to get a clearer view of what’s really going on within this experience we call life. Today’s guest on the show is a woman who connected with psychedelics early on in her life &, as Terrance McKenna famously states, “got the message & was able to hang up the phone”. Those early experiences inspired her & allowed her to break free of the societal programming holding her back & tap into her dharma in this lifetime, which is to help the world wake up through her books, of which she has 2, including “What Really Makes You Ill” & “You Don’t Have To Stay There”. This episode is sure to open your mind to new possibilities & spark curiosity throughout your entire being so get ready & give me a big hand as I welcome my dear friend Dawn Lester onto the show!
