It's podcast day! ❤️‍🔥🧚🏻‍♀️🌹

Today I am joined by my beautiful friend Raquel Moragues. We begin our conversation discussing the massive upgrades that have been occurring for us in this season of life. We also get into how we can shift our perspective on meditation and use this tool as a way to connect with ourselves and regulate our nervous systems.

Our discussion evolves into a very important conversation about meeting your own needs and setting boundaries in motherhood and beyond. We talk about the resentment that many mothers feel when they fall into patterns of neglecting their own needs and putting everyone else before themselves.

This can cause so much stress for mothers when they become the martyrs for their families and completely sacrifice their needs and desires. Raquel expresses the challenges she faces as a single mother and her evolution into conscious parenting. Raquel and I also discuss how our children are our greatest teachers and can be such a catalyst in our evolution.

Through healing our own trauma, we heal our family lineage and I believe that this is truly what will bring the most radical change in the world.

This was such a beautiful and important conversation. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did! 🧚🏻‍♀️🌺

I am done.

This eclipse is really calling us to go inward, to let go of what isn't serving us and to place our focus and attention on what we want to create. ✨

What cycles are you choosing to release? 🌘

Someone had to say it 🤷🏼‍♀️👇🏻

It's crazy to me that we even have to have this conversation.

How is it that they can make plants illegal that naturally grow out of the ground, put them in the same category as he**in and claim they have "no medicinal use"?

Working with sacred earth medicines is our birthright. Humans have been working with sacred plants and fungi since the dawn of time.

We have a right to have a relationship with these powerful teachers, as humans have for thousands of years. We have a fundamental right to our healing.

This is why I will always be an advocate for these sacred medicines to be available to those who desire a relationship with them. People should have access to healing in whatever form they choose, and they should be accessible not only through the hands of big pharma.

So I will always do what I can to educate people on how to work with them safely and in right relationship.

May we all return to the knowing that is our birthright to work with sacred plants and fungi. They are a gift to us from the Earth herself. No one can ever take that away from us.

New podcast episode just dropped! 🎙️

Today I am joined by my dear sister Lauren. In this episode Lauren tells us about the journey that led her to the plant medicine path, from navigating pharmaceutical medications to being at the height of her business while simultaneously dealing with debilitating chronic health issues. Lauren details how she made the decision to take a spiritual sabbatical for an entire year to study deeply with plant medicine and heal her body. Through her plant medicine study, she came to the realization that her physical and mental health issues were rooted in the trauma that she had experienced in her younger years. Lauren tells us how she found the deepest healing of her life through ceremonial work with plant and amphibian medicines.

We also get into a really important conversation on the topic of cultural appropriation and the ethics of white people sitting with and serving plant medicines. We examine how we can do our best to remain in integrity and right relationship with indigenous medicines and how to support and uplift indigenous people. Lauren discusses the surprising and unexpected circumstances that led her to facilitating some of the same medicines that helped her heal her life, and the backlash she has received for sharing these aspects of herself online. We also talk about what to look for in a plant medicine facilitator and what to do if you are feeling called to facilitate plant medicine experiences yourself. The path to becoming a facilitator of earth medicine is a deep initiatory path that is not for everyone. Lauren discusses some of the lessons and initiations that she has experienced that have deepened her awareness and ability to hold safe space for others.

This is such a juicy convo and I hope that you all enjoy it as much as I did! 🧚🏻‍♀️🌹

New podcast episode is now live! 🧚🏻‍♀️

In today's solo episode we are discussing the concept of power. We'll talk about what it means to be empowered, the ways that we give our power away and how we can reclaim that power from external forces.

We'll also discuss the ways that much of humanity has become disempowered and allowed institutions to have control over the way we live our lives. We uncover the ways in which humans have relinquished our power to external influences and societal norms. From the subtle dynamics of everyday life to the broader structures of authority and control, we examine how these forces shape our perceptions and limit our potential.

Join me as we embark on an empowerment revolution, challenging the status quo and embracing the limitless possibilities that come with reclaiming our power. It's time to break free from the chains of authoritarian control and embrace the true power that lies within all of us. ❤️‍🔥🌹

You can only choose to let go when it's time.

You can only choose to let go when you're ready.

You definitely don't want to get stuck in the feeling stage, ruminating and allowing yourself to be constantly drowned in the waves of emotion. That's not healthy either, but that's a story for another day.

Let me know how this resonates in the comments 👇🏻

Continuing the conversation from my last post ✨

In my spiritual path, especially with sacred medicines, it's been very important for me to observe and learn from the ways of indigenous people.

I think that we have a lot to learn from indigenous people in regard to how we can reform our society to be in closer contact with nature and our fellow humans.

My prayer is that we can find a way to merge our western technology with the ancestral wisdom of indigenous people to create a better future for all of us.

But for now I'm doing what I can to make my integration and my general existence more harmonious, because it's not always easy.

So here's some tips that I hope can help you have a smoother integration:

- Rest as much as needed. Your body may have gone through a massive energetic upgrade and will need some time to recalibrate. Eat lots of nourishing food and don't pressure yourself to be productive right away. Take your time.

- Get into nature as much as possible. Put your feet on the Earth. Listen to the subtle teachings of the plants, animals and insects. Let the Earth hold you.

- Tune in with yourself. Pray, journal, or meditate in a way that feels authentic to you so you can get a deeper understanding of how you're feeling and connect with yourself and your spirit team.

- Move the energy. Find practices such as yoga, breathwork, or primal movement to help you to move the energy through. Life is just like the ceremony and this is a process of learning how to work with what you're experiencing instead of resisting it.

- Connect with loved ones who can support you if you need to process difficult emotions. If you can connect with others who understand the plant medicine realm, that's even better but at least let it be someone who is open minded and can hold proper space for you. Alone time is important but it's also important not to isolate yourself, especially if that's a pattern for you.

And MOST importantly, be gentle with yourself. Your path is completely unique to you, and you can never miss what's meant for you. All you can do is your best ❤️

Have you ever experienced this? 😫

I know I have, and although it does get easier it's something I still have trouble with sometimes.

Plant and fungi medicines show us our true potential, and it can be very painful to come back to our daily life and realize that we are not living up to that potential.

I want to reassure you that this is just a part of the process.

We're trying to figure out how to build a better life for ourselves in a society that is crumbling.

This is not always an easy job but I assure you that if you've been put in position to even have awareness of what needs changing, then God knows you are up for the task.

Be gentle with yourself. You're just learning.

Like and comment on this post if you want part two where we'll get into healing this cycle of disconnection 🌹

Is it possible that the Christmas myth of Santa Claus and his flying reindeer originated from mystical experiences with psychedelic mushrooms? 🎅🏼

In today’s special holiday episode of the podcast I am joined by Ryan Griffith to discuss the Amanita Muscaria mushroom and its connection to the Christmas holiday. 🎄🍄

There is a lot of correlation between our modern day Christmas celebration and the Amanita Muscaria mushroom (also known as the fly agaric mushroom), much of which comes from ancient Siberian shamanic traditions and similar traditions in neighboring parts of Europe. Many of the holidays we celebrate today have history in pagan traditions and it’s apparent to me that Christmas is definitely one of them. Christmas also aligns with the holiday of Yule, which is a winter festival historically observed by Germanic and Scandinavian people from centuries long past. This is just a piece of what we get into in today’s podcast.

In this episode Ryan explains the compounds within the Amanita Muscaria mushrooms, the benefits of working with them, how to process them in order to work with them safely AND the difference between Amanitas and Psilocybin. We also talk about empowering ourselves to reclaim our birthright to work with sacred plants and the importance of keeping plant medicines out of the hands of government and pharmaceutical gatekeepers.

We even get into a fascinating conversation about the future of AI and the potential of AI to help solve a myriad of problems in our society. We discuss the fears that many of us have in regards to the negative potential of AI and how we can shift our perspective to hopefully steer these technological advancements in the right direction.

I had so much fun recording this episode and I really hope you all enjoy as well!

Happy Holidays to everyone and thank you for listening and supporting this podcast! 🎅🏼🎄🍄

The latest episode of the We Are the Medicine podcast is now live! 🧚🏻‍♀️🌸

In today’s episode I am joined by the beautiful Kayla Anoku to talk about her spiritual awakening journey and how that eventually led her to the plant medicine path. We discuss Kayla’s spontaneous awakening that took place through a guided meditation and we uncover the ways she has used scripting and manifestation techniques to level up her life in every possible way. We also get into some of the pitfalls that can occur due to our own naivety in the earlier stages of spiritual awakening and the importance of doing shadow work to heal our underlying traumas.

Kayla shares her experience of deciding to sit with Ayahuasca and how the difficult parts of her journey became the exact medicine that she needed to bring her the most impactful healing. She explains how she had to release her expectations of the medicine experience in order to receive the healing that she needed.

We also discuss both of our struggles with cannabis dependency and the ways that we can shift our perspective to see cannabis as a psychedelic medicine and give her the respect she deserves.

Kayla Anoku is a YouTuber and plant medicine student who helps people to live a more conscious and mindful life. She has grown her YouTube audience to over 100k subscribers diving into many topics related to personal development and manifestation. She is such a beautiful soul and I really hope you all enjoy this conversation.
