I’m inviting you to the first online Canna Elevation Ceremony I’ve offered in years… since 2019. It’s coming up this Saturday. And I am sharing this with our wider community – beyond those of you who have already registered because if you’ve been thinking about joining us for our complimentary session – this video … Read more
You may or may not have heard that the psychedelic community’s abuzz over what amounts to a HUGE defeat in moving psychedelics to a place of legal acceptance in the United States. And, of course, it’s considered a defeat for the rest of the Westernized world – given the U.S.’s outsized influence on such matters.
I often get letters from folks sharing their experiences and asking questions. This correspondence can offer spectacular insights and musings that answer questions that many others have on their mind. So I’m sharing this one with you today…
Oh! Thank you for the exuberant responses to my invitation for coming together for an online Cannabis Elevation Ceremony – my gift to our community.
Wow, when I casually mentioned at the end of my blog last week about maybe holding an online Cannabis Elevation Ceremony, I was surprised by the robust response! Thank you:)
So let’s do this! I have more to share with you about it in this video.
Just a quick note as I’m writing from Thailand (Chiang Mai specifically, in the north of the country). It was a long trip – between 4 flights and hefty layovers – 27 hours worth. I’m here physically but tired and discombobulated having landed late yesterday and flopping at a simple and clean little hotel near the airport. I tried everything to sleep (including breathing, counting backwards from 100 and even the podcast “Sleep with me.”
The intersection of science and spirituality can be elusive – as a lot of answers offered by spirituality are often dismissed by science. So while science is busy doing the heavy lifting of proving how the brain responds to psychedelics, spirituality offers its own intriguing, otherworldly perspectives. In this video, I want to introduce you to the work of a psychiatrist whose journey through both science and spirituality led to some astonishing insights.
“I am so stressed, I am stressed all the time!” Miguel lamented.
“Can you tell me more about what that means?” I ask. “Would you say you’re anxious or fearful about something?”
“I don’t know,” he says shaking his head, “I’m just really stressed!”
Miguel is typical in that he uses the word “stress” as a place holder for what he’s feeling – because he doesn’t have the language to apply to what he’s actually feeling.
I’m still sick as I write this – well maybe more high than sick since I took a WHOLE gummy to sleep. But now, I have a little energy and strength to focus and sit up. Until the sleep kicks-in. Anyway, I’m getting ahead of myself. Last week I hopped on a plane to Holland to attend a 3-day psychedelic science conference.
Whew! This month-long course has been a loooong time coming – because when I moved to Portugal from Florida about 18-months ago, I never thought it was going to take me this long to pick up where I left off in the states! So much bureaucratic red tape and just the stuff it takes to get settled!
