EP 023 | WHAT'S YOUR TRUE WHY?
If you’ve been listening to The Psychedelic Integration Podcast for a while, you may have gotten the idea that healing with psychedelics is like, hard work, or something. We have no idea where you would have heard that. 👀🤪 We don’t sugarcoat things. It’s true. Other people may tell you that you can heal your life in one night, or one ceremony. But over here, we’re being honest. It takes time. Effort. Willingness. Some patience and self-love. And a great sense of humor. It’s time to come full circle and reconnect to the real reasons we do this podcast or sit in crazy ceremonies, or do any of this medicine and integration work with plants. This week’s podcast episode is dedicated to singing the the song of your heart. Asking the questions that matter. So,What’s Your True Why?
In this episode, John and Sinclair talk about:
- Going beyond the “work” of psychedelics and plant medicines to the reasons behind WHY you want to do it
- Planting the seeds of your why and watching them grow
- Following the societal program, not asking questions, doing what you’re supposed to do
- The inevitable existential crisis that calls you to psychedelics
- Not feeling grateful, satisfied, or fulfilled with your identity
- Coming to terms with the “working world” and feeling that there was something really wrong with how our society functions
