San Pedro, Gratitude and Getting Nailed

Last week, I attended a San Pedro retreat here in Peru. San Pedro is a psychedelic cactus native to the mountains of Peru. Itā€™s difficult to tell you exactly what it is or what it does, and I donā€™t want to colour your expectations of it in case you ever do itā€¦ ā€¦but I will … Continue reading

Life Is The Greatest Healer

Life is the greatest healer and teacher

I drank Ayahuasca for the first time in Peru last year šŸ™‚ Itā€™s why I moved here. Well, one reason anyway. Iā€™d already explored plant medicine and psychedelics elsewhere (including Ayahuasca). I also knew that Ayahuasca came from South America, with various tribes in Brazil, Peru and other countries whoā€™d worked with it for thousands … Continue reading

Psychedelics and nervous system regulation

When I first started using the nervous system tools for myself, I wasnā€™t doing it with psychedelics šŸ„ The nervous system tools are great – some of the most powerful tools for personal change Iā€™ve ever found – and you donā€™t need to take mushrooms or ayahuasca to experience some of the amazing benefits I … Continue reading

When Adyashatmypants saw me looking at it, she told me Sean brought it back from Chaseā€™s after BJJ this morning. (Chase and Anna have an awesome … Continue reading

Donā€™t take psychedelics until you read this email

Tears streamed down my face that day šŸ˜­ I was on a farm in the Southern Highlands, 3 hours from Sydney, after breaking up with my girlfriend of 4 years the day before. Rolling green hills in every direction. Pristine blue skies. Curious sheep, mooing cows and at least a few killer brown snakes thatā€™ll … Continue reading

Adyashatmypants strikes again (Teabag Chopra is IN DA HOUSE)

Last Saturday, I drank San Pedro with my sister Adyashatmypants (aka. ā€œEllieā€, a much less spiritual name) and a bunch of other crazy cats. It was a good day. Blue sky, gorgeous mountains andĀ lukewarmĀ San Pedro. Okā€¦ The warm part wasnā€™t great – basically lukewarm cactus soup without the thorns – but hey, sometimes medicine is bitter šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø … Continue reading
