I loved this. Your words brought me instantly back to some of my own journeys through this sacred terrain, with so many similarities. Thank you for sharing ✨

I haven’t explicitly, no. But my time with psychedelics and plant medicines have informed much of what I do and write, in general - especially my last aya ceremony, which pieces of this reminded me of so much. 🩷

They’ve guided my life since I was 17, for the last decade. They led me to where I am today, to founding Psygaia and the research Im doing at the University of Ottawa, which I consider my life’s work.

Mushrooms have been the best teachers! Aya and huachuma too!

I find that mushrooms are less clear in their instructions than aya though. Mushrooms are more like tricksters, aya is more like a mother.

If you want to read my hypothesis, check it out on my Substack. I shared 3 parts of it! Would love to get your thoughts on it.
