Episode 67: Entering Psychedelica With Vulnerability & the Mind of a Child (feat. Ben Stewart)

Within the world of psychedelics & plant medicines alike, it seems as though new information is coming out daily in the present day that is laying credence to the long held beliefs surrounding the potential for physical, emotional, mental & spiritual healing through these medicines. For those of us that have connected with these medicines & teachers & experienced this potential, the beauty of this is that we are finally gaining access to the scientific evidence to support these claims & as a result, are further able to de stigmatize the long held societal beliefs surrounding these medicines, which have resulted in them being lumped in with harsh drugs such as heroin & cocaine. Todays guest on the show is a man who has made it his life’s work to not only understand the mechanisms behind these medicines in his own life, but to also share his findings with the world at large through his numerous projects, shows, films & documentaries to be able to empower each individual curious about psychedelic medicine with the framework & knowledge necessary to use discernment in his or her life as to whether these medicines are right for them in their lives. He is the host of both “Limitless” & “Psychedelica” on Gaia, is the host of the “Ben Stewart Podcast” is the creator of documentaries such as “Awake In The Darkness”, & the “DMT Quest Documentary” & is the creator of films such as “Esoteric Agenda”, “Kymatica” & “Ungrip”, to name but a few & if all of this wasn’t enough, he is also one of the most articulate & well versed individuals on the subject of plant medicines & psychedelics alike that I have had ever had the pleasure of knowing in my life.
