Burning Bush Podcast

It's been quite a time since I last recorded. So much to share, but first let's get sorta up to speed with a chat about Katie's impressions of what my regular ayahuasca ceremony attendance has done for and for my mental state. No chapters this time, I've been putting off this story for so long that I'm looking for any excuse to put it, so this is getting published as is. We're also in a coronavirus or COVID-19 inspired voluntary lockdown because of recommendations that social distancing will flatten the curve of infection so as not to overwhelm our healthcare system as the immunocompromised and elderly are likely to need ventilators to sustain lung function. So...yeah. We're planning on recording at least an IG Live video every standard work night at 8pm, this recording is straight from that. I have a lot more stuff to share, including some writings I did before I started my recovery that I think people will connect with. #phoenix #mentalhealth #ayahuasca #cannabis #podcast #recovery #psychedelics #psilocybin
