Welcome to the Psychedelic Blog. I write about the Impact of Psychedelics on Grieving, Relationships, Culture & Death. This week, in honor of July 4th, I’m serving up a Psychedelic Summer Survival Kit—for anyone navigating heat, fireworks, and unexpected ego death.
I appreciate your humor in this piece, Andrew! Now I have a new way to excuse myself from a conversation, “I’m going to step outside” and pray no one follows me. Happy birthday to Grandma!! 97! 🙌🎉😍
Always do mind expanding medicines by yourself. In silent darkness. Or in nature. For wisdom. When you are alone your ego is inactive. There are no energy vampires around. Mushrooms LSD Ayahuasca Peyote Marijuana. These are gifts from the Gods to reconnect the hemispheres of your brain and to open up all the synapses. But they will only illuminate your path. They wont carry. A Spirit Walk 4 or 8 times a year is essential.
Appreciate the sentiment, but this feels a bit too prescriptive. There’s no one right way to work with these medicines—context, intention, and individual wiring all matter. What’s sacred for one can be destabilizing for another.
I'm with you on the guitar thing. I have some amazingly talented friends and the art that's created is a balm for my soul. But then again, anytime I have an excuse to dance I'll take it.
