      With today’s topic another good person to interview would be Dr. Andrew Weil, like Michael Pollan he too is a mushroom man and all around health conscious.

    I'm so grateful for Christiana's unabashed approach on this because I agree that psychadelics are a shortcut to spirituality. I have used mushrooms and have had an incredible experience and another horrible experience. I think the benefits of psychadelics can be attained more permanently and more meaningfully through spiritual practices. I think it is much more powerful to have our own consciousness come to a new perspective versus taking something that mimics that. The argument about using psychadelics as a medical treatment makes sense to me, especially for groups like veterans, but to the average person, I think it isn't necessary to achieve the benefits that psychadelics promise.

      True, because I was a bit brainwashed back in the 1990s-early 2000s, I used to think that drugs were bad, because I was indoctrinated by governments.

    I loved Michael Pollan's article on experimenting with growing opium poppies. I bought bread seed poppy seeds and grew them after seeing them growing in a client's garden. They are beautiful, but the client freaked out about them being opium poppies so pulled them out. We live in a rural area, so no one will identify them. I will continue to grow them for their beauty!

    Christina? Thats endlessly facinating to me.
    Cause, yes. I remember that the Nigerians once had chiefs or kings, but. I remember the kings of MY ancestors being really shitty to yours 😅
    So like. I get what youre saying. Im the great grand daughter of British settlers. But. Idk man. Even I wonder if the British Crown is the order I want around. Lol.
    I liked "order," but. That kinda order? Idk. 😅

    @aubreyellig1363 2 дня назад

    I hear Christina. For those stuck in thinking, I agree it is a short cut spiritually to open, connected feeling. I think we need to see if there are physical or spiritual side effects to using short cuts in this way, versus meditation or such. It would be curious to evaluate because it does give people a brief experience. Either way, short or long, I hope it would be followed up by significant positive change and daily movement for the person.

    • @aubreyellig1363

      Perhaps certain people in politics could benefit from doing one of these methods spiritual or psychedelics to move from cemented thinking to unifying thinking.

    In response to Christiana, my experience has been that psychedelics will take you to the pain and show you a more accurate perspective of what happened allowing you to enter into that pain and healing. There is no running from anything on psychedelics.

  • @stoodmuffinpersonal3144
    @stoodmuffinpersonal3144 День назад

    I mean. Im white. I think Id be one of the people Christina would call out. But. I do absolutely see where shes coming from in this. I thought I would just be on Trevor's side, after the John Oliver piece on this topic. But. Christina has points I can understand a bit. Even if I would like this to be expanded and open to more people. I get what her concerns are.

    • @stoodmuffinpersonal3144
      @stoodmuffinpersonal3144 День назад

      Like. When she brought up "could it break down racist assumptions," thats an AWESOME question.
      But the "paper over," / band aid solution, too. Is a thing I think about.
      I think about it with talk therapy, too. Like. Yeah, therapy is good. But. If you can't afford to cover rent, or eat. Food. And shelter. And money to afford that. Would help. Probably even more than Shrooms.
      So. As much as I think this could be helpful, and stuff. Stuff like that, and the "psychotic break," stuff? Is worth taking seriously. I think, anyway

    • @stoodmuffinpersonal3144
      @stoodmuffinpersonal3144 День назад

      But also. As someone who is "stuck." And feels I can't get "unstuck." This sounds potentially life fixing. Lol.
      But. Always gotta take that with a grain of salt, too 😂

    I enjoyed this episode immensely and think it’s a super important topic. My mother tried mushrooms in her twenties and she said it made her realize the immense trauma and pain she had buried and put her on a path to resolve that trauma- which led to meeting my dad and my existence! Whatever existential experience you have you don’t lose, you take it with you in life and it is life changing. I always suggest for those who can’t afford a guided experience to find a few close friends, in a super safe environment, with nothing to do for the whole day/ night… I have communed w my father (who passed) on this - and the lessons are forever and no it’s not something you wish to do again immediately but it’s something I would probably do again under the right circumstances. We yearn for something greater as a species because there is something greater that exists that we can almost touch. Psychedelics help you touch it, and the lessons are forever. ❤️❤️🙏🙏 ps: Michael’s hat looks like a tip of a penis, once you see you can’t unsee it 🤣🤣.
