Many of us find psychedelic medicines because we are looking for something more out of life. Whether it’s curiosity, adventure, healing or really anything else, the process of being able to stabilize these things in our lives after our ceremonies comes down to the concept of integration, however, I feel this topic is one spoke of often that I find, in many cases, many people are confused on what the actual process can look like & what some of the most important aspects of it are. This is why for todays guest on the show, I wanted to have a man come onto the show who, along with being a dear friend of mine, is an expert at being able to help his clients integrate, heal trauma, reclaim safety in every fiber of their being, overcome chronic pain & more so that they can live the lives they know are possible for them. This is a very important episode to pay attention to as SO many of us either deal with chronic pain &/or trauma ourselves or have loved ones who do & although plant medicines can assist in this, they are often not the full scope of the equation & as such, I am beyond stoked to be able to welcome my man Bryan Raymond onto the show to share his personal story of moving through chronic pain, assisting his clients do the same & helping to bring more joy to the lives of as many human beings as possible.
