Many of us experience ego death through psychedelics, but what happens when someone actually dies and returns to share their insights? Kyle Buller, co-founder of Psychedelics Today, had his life transformed at 16 after a traumatic snowboarding accident left him with a profound near-death experience (NDE). In this episode, Kyle shares his journey from navigating his NDE to exploring altered states of consciousness through psychedelics, transpersonal psychology, and Holotropic Breathwork.Kyle and Lana discuss how these extraordinary states can catalyze personal transformation, the critical importance of integration, and why taking time to slow down is essential for practitioners and explorers alike. In the meat of this conversation, they also explore the concept of spiritual emergence, a phenomenon where transformative experiences can lead to personal crises or growth, and how to navigate the fine line between awakening and overwhelm. Together, they examine the responsibility of psychedelic work and the need for cultural frameworks to support those undergoing these profound shifts.Topics Covered:Gaps in the psychedelic education spaceSupporting individuals through different phases of psychedelic workWhy bother having an expanded state of consciousnessHow to make the most out of challenging psychedelic experiencesPumping the breaks on transformational work and grounding into the everydayHow Kyles NDE at age 16 changes his perspective on life and deathSpiritual emergence and emergency: when mystical experiences create crisisCommon symptoms, challenges and experiences during a spiritual emergenceEgo Inflation as Spiritual EmergencyAdvocates of psychedelics need to be honest about the challengesKyle’s deeply destabilizing experience with LSD (depersonalization & derealization)Sponsors:Natural Shilajit - 10% off with LANA10OFFKanna Wellness - 10% off with LANAShow Links:Vital Psychedelic Training: Learn more herePsychedelics Today Podcast: Visit hereBooks: Spiritual Emergency: When Personal Transformation Becomes a Crisis and The Stormy Search for the Self  by Stanislav and Christina GrofSpiritual Emergence as Ego Inflation (Jules Evans article about Sowilo Retreats)👉Stay connected to Modern Psychedelics via Instagram | YouTube | Web 👉 Inspired to transform your life from the inside out, and integrate higher consciousness in your day to day life?

Are you feeling like the work isn’t working? Do you feel worse, rather than better? What if I told you that this is perfectly normal? Join me as we explore the reality that sometimes, before we reap the benefits of our healing journeys, we must confront the discomfort and emotional turbulence that arise.Using the framework of the Hero’s Journey, we discuss how this process is not just about finding relief but engaging with the deeper wounds that psychedelics illuminate. By understanding that this discomfort is a natural part of the healing process, we can embrace the journey and recognize that facing our inner challenges is a sign of progress. Whether you're navigating your own healing or supporting others, this episode aims to validate your experience and encourage you to keep moving forward.What You’ll Learn:The stages of the Hero's Journey and how they mirror our psychedelic experiences.Why it’s normal to feel overwhelmed or frustrated during the healing process.The importance of facing discomfort and how it signifies progress.How emotions are energy in motion and the necessity of feeling to heal.The significance of support systems during challenging times.Sponsors:Natural Shilajit - Get 10% off with LANA10OFFShow Links:Apply for 1:1 Coaching with LanaZoë Pawlak Oracle deckEpisode 97: Heart Centered Living (5-MeO Integration Update) - Spotify | Apple | YouTubeFollow Modern Psychedelics on YouTube👉Stay connected to Modern Psychedelics via ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Web⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 👉 Inspired to transform your life from the inside out, and integrate higher consciousness in your day to day life? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Explore 1:1 Coaching with Lana ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apply Now⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE Intention Setting Journal for Psychedelic Experiences⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Integration Journal to Help Make Sense of Your Journey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ceremony Checklist for Safe Plant Medicine Journeys⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Psychedelic Journey & Psychedelic Integration Playlist⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉Looking for daily integration support or a legal microdose option?

In this episode, Lana interviews Kayse Gehret, a microdosing guide with over 30 years of experience in the healing arts, to explore the transformative potential of microdosing mushrooms. Kayse shares her journey into microdosing, highlighting how her work has evolved from a personal practice to founding the Microdosing for Healing community. Together, they discuss how microdosing offers subtle yet profound healing, why it's often a better starting point than macrodosing, and how group microdosing amplifies the entire experience.Throughout the conversation, Kayse explains the wide range of reasons people turn to microdosing—spanning beyond mental health to include spiritual development, relationship enhancement, and even physical healing. The two also delve into managing expectations on a microdosing journey, the critical role of intuition and energy, and how Kayse’s deep connection with psilocybin-containing mushrooms has shaped her work. If you’re curious about the potential of microdosing and its broader applications, this episode offers rich insights into its power and practice.Topics Covered:Kayse's 30 years of experience in the healing arts that led her to focus on microdosing.Why healing should be a core part of everyone’s life.The unique benefits of microdosing compared to macrodosing.How group microdosing amplifies the experience.Non-mental health reasons people are turning to microdosing.Conditions that show positive responses to microdosing.How focusing too much on mental processing can block emotional healing.Energy and intuition as a tool for a microdosing practitioner.Managing expectations and projections on a microdosing journeyThe energy of psilocybin containing mushroomsSponsors:Natural Shilajit - 10% off with LANA10OFFKanna Wellness - 10% off with LANA👉Stay connected to Modern Psychedelics via ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Web⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 👉 Inspired to transform your life from the inside out, and integrate higher consciousness in your day to day life? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Explore 1:1 Coaching with Lana ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apply Now⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE Intention Setting Journal for Psychedelic Experiences⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Integration Journal to Help Make Sense of Your Journey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ceremony Checklist for Safe Plant Medicine Journeys⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Psychedelic Journey & Psychedelic Integration Playlist⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉Looking for daily integration support or a legal microdose option?

In this episode, we dive into the unspoken and messy realities of working with psychedelics. While many conversations focus on the profound healing and life-changing potential of these substances, this episode balances that narrative with some grounded real world truths. Lana explores how psychedelics offer us not a quick fix for our suffering, but rather a fulfilling lifelong journey of self-discovery and transformation that requires dedication and deep personal work. It’s a path that demands preparation, integration, and a willingness to confront difficult emotions and uncomfortable truths about oneself.Throughout the episode, Lana emphasizes that psychedelics will often show you what you don’t want to see, and that healing is not always pleasant or straightforward. From the importance of integration to the understanding that sometimes psychedelics can make things worse before they get better, this discussion serves as a reality check for those considering psychedelics as part of their healing journey. If you're ready to hear the unsexy, raw side of psychedelics, this episode offers insights from Lana’s years of experience and from others on the path.Topics Covered:The need for some harsh and uncomfortable real world insights about psychedelicsPsychedelics are a doorway to a lifelong journey of self discovery and healing (not a quick fix)The role of prep and integration to ground in the workWhy this work is inherently spiritualWhy science will never be able to fully understand psychedelicsMeeting your (uncomfortable) growth edge with psychedelicsEngaging in psychedelic work is a very personal decisionSometimes psychedelics make things worseSponsors:Natural Shilajit | Head to naturalshilajit.com to get 10% off with LANA10OFFShow Links:1:1 Coaching with Lana - Apply NowEpisode 93: How to know if you’re ready to go deeper with psychedelics (Spotify | Apple | YouTube)👉Stay connected to Modern Psychedelics via ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Web⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 👉 Inspired to transform your life from the inside out, and integrate higher consciousness in your day to day life? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Explore 1:1 Coaching with Lana ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apply Now⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE Intention Setting Journal for Psychedelic Experiences⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Integration Journal to Help Make Sense of Your Journey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ceremony Checklist for Safe Plant Medicine Journeys⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Psychedelic Journey & Psychedelic Integration Playlist⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉Looking for daily integration support or a legal microdose option?

I have a very exciting announcement today: I am launching a new company called Kanna Wellness, inspired by the simple Mediterranean approach to well-being. To set the stage, I share about my personal journey with Kanna, describing how it helped me during a challenging integration period. This episode also includes detailed information about Kanna, its effects, dosage guidelines, and practical tips on incorporating it into daily life and recreational settings. My enthusiasm for the plant grew over time, especially when my mom started feeling its anti-anxiety benefits. Since my mom also loves the plant, Kanna Wellness is a family-owned business started with my parents, aimed at bringing high-quality Kanna extract to the Canadian market.

In this episode, I am focusing on Iboga and 5-MeO-DMT, two of the most potent substances known to humankind. This episode is to serve as a guide for people who are unsure of which heavy hitting psychedelic to work with. My theory is that while these two medicines are complete polar opposites, together, they offer a whole and complete picture of what this human existence is all about.

In this solo episode with Lana, we explore importance of taking a break from psychedelics and medicine work. While these powerful tools can facilitate profound healing and transformation, there are times when stepping back can be the medicine you need. I discuss five key signs that it might be time to pause, including having too much to integrate, chasing the highs of the experience, and noticing compulsive habits forming around psychedelic use. This episode offers valuable insights for anyone who may be questioning whether they are still benefiting from their psychedelic practices.Additionally, I provide practical strategies for how to take a break effectively, including focusing on integration, exploring other modalities, and prioritizing other areas of life. This conversation is rooted in the importance of listening to your intuition and recognizing that everyone’s journey with psychedelics is unique. If you are considering a pause for psychedelics and The Work, this episode provides guidance on finding balance and ensuring that your psychedelic experiences continue to serve your highest good.Topics Covered: The nuance of how much psychedelics is beneficialWhen you already know what you have to doChasing the highs of the expanded stateBringing the peak experiences into the every dayLooking at compulsive or dependent psychedelic usageWhen life starts to feel out of controlTips to take a break and focus on integrationShow Links:Apply for 1:1 coaching with LanaEpisode 79 with Jules Evans (Spotify | Apple | YouTube) - Navigating challenging psychedelic experiencesEpisode 94 with Jesse West (Spotify | Apple | YouTube) - Navigating a challenging integration periodEpisode 102 with Krista Znebel (Spotify | Apple | YouTube) - Holistic nutrition during integration👉Stay connected to Modern Psychedelics via ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Web⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 👉 Inspired to transform your life from the inside out, and integrate higher consciousness in your day to day life? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Explore 1:1 Coaching with Lana ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apply Now⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE Intention Setting Journal for Psychedelic Experiences⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Integration Journal to Help Make Sense of Your Journey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ceremony Checklist for Safe Plant Medicine Journeys⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Psychedelic Journey & Psychedelic Integration Playlist⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠👉Looking for daily integration support or a legal microdose option?
