A replay of the only episode I’ve ever deleted. Please listen to Episode 84 Our Complex Humanity Cannot Be Cancelled first.
Our ancestors were in constant biochemical conversation with the world, and so are we. Plants are a gateway into the depths of our consciousness, emotions, and physical experience of being alive. Let us come back into relationship with the information available in each interaction with the natural world.
TOPICS:
The archetype of the witch in the hut at the edge of the village
Neurodivergence, tryptamine, sensory gating channels, and pattern recognition
What is the purpose of the human being?
Finding one’s path after a confused and lost childhood
Psilocybin and the conversation happening between everything
Knowing what you’re saying yes to
When an herb changes your embodied experience of the world
The illusory distinction between plant, animal, and human consciousness
Finding what’s ours to do in a world with so much suffering
The power of drop doses to create somatic shifts
Creating coherence in the complex, fluid, multivalent signalling system within the body
Plant compounds that mirror our neurotransmitters and hormones
Ancestral names, places, music, language, and stories
Hawthorn myth and medicine
