Those of us who want to change and are so ready to do the healing and the growth work, with Ketamine, we dissolve the hold that we have over our ego. I work with people with severe trauma, and I've never seen a flip out on Ketamine. And I have seen some flip-outs on DMT. But that's because the egos are dissolving and dying. Our bodies are not our own; we can do our best to take care and love our bodies, strengthen them, and keep them fit and healthy as best as we can at the same time knowing that they will decay and die.  Show Highlights:What is Ketamine Therapy?Dr. Sapiro 6:34Ketamine was used initially as an anesthetic. What they found was people who were put under, like dental surgeries, reported that their depression was gone for months at a time. Can you explain what Ketamine does to the ego?Dr. Sapiro 17:28How Ketamine functions is it puts the nervous system in a state that we would consider more parasympathetic, a little bit downregulated. Because your body is on its own, you're essentially dissociated, but you can still feel and be in the body. But it has a sense of freedom and ease. Sponsor linkhttps://cozyearth.comUse the code "GUTSY" to get a 40% discount on all products.The Mind Explained (Netflix)Dr. Michael Sapiro's Website Radio AwakenedDr. Michael Sapiro's IG accountSend us Fan Mail
