The Wednesday Wellbeing show 11th of May 2021 with Jonathan De Potter

This week on the #wednesdaywellbeing showWe chat about the science of plant medicine 🌿🌿💊 and the use of psychedelics. 🧘‍♂️🧘‍♀️🦚🦚I'm joined by Jonathan de Potter who is The Founder of Behold Retreats.🦚🦚💊Hallucinogenic drugs....San Pedro...ayahuasca...LSD ...magic mushrooms....are back in the spotlight. 🍄🍄There is clearly a great deal of public interest and much to discover about the magic of healing with plant medicines, there are countless resources online if you want to find out about working with teacher plants for your own healing. 🙏🙏🙌There have also been a series of recent studies suggesting that psychedelics may be useful for alleviating depression and anxiety, PTSD, and even addiction. 👨‍🔬👩‍🔬🧪Ayahuasca tourism is well established in South America. Its use by Westerners interested in healing and shamanism has raised the profile of the traditional medicine globally. 💼🌍According to the Ethnobotanical Stewardship Council (ESC) Peru and Colombia are "well-travelled, with tens of thousands of foreigners taking ayahuasca there every year," So what's it all about????? Isn't it dangerous to even promote the use of drugs to expand the mind???? 🧠🤯This week Jonathan and I have an open, enlightening and honest chat about the benefits, drawbacks and dangers of using plant medicines. https://www.behold-retreats.com/Support the showThis podcast is sponsored by The Northern College of Clinical Hypnotherapywww.thenortherncollegeofclinicalhypnotherapy.com
