In this episode, I am joined by Paul Levy, author of several books including the recently published Wetiko: Healing the Mind-Virus that Plagues Our World. Paul discusses the nature of Wetiko as the psycho-spiritual disease that is at the root of a collective psychosis that is leading us down a path of ecocide and collective suicide. He touches upon Jung’s concept of the shadow, the shamanic archetype of the wounded healer, the path of the Bodhisattva, and the necessity of connecting with our creative nature and waking from the spell of separateness as the antidotes to the mind-virus of Wetiko, which he argues, is an ally to our collective awakening.

In this episode, I speak with Dr. Tim Read, one of the directors of the Institute of Psychedelic Therapy in the UK and co-editor of the recently published Psychedelics and Psychotherapy. Tim discusses the history of psychedelic therapy, where it is heading, the usefulness of challenging experiences, training psychedelic therapists, and the public’s changing perceptions of psychedelic therapy. He also discusses how psychedelic therapy is helping to shift views on the nature of consciousness and how it can open the doors to synchronicities. Tim and I also discuss the ongoing Covid pandemic as an analogy of a challenging psychedelic experience.
