Hey everybody! Episode 98 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with Marc Aixalà. Marc is a psychotherapist and has worked in collaboration with a very good organization called ICEERS (International Center for Ethnobotanical Education, Research and Service). ICEERS worked in collaboration with a large ayahuasca center where I worked for many years (the Temple of the Way of Light) doing research on the therapeutic benefits of ayahuasca. We share a mutual friend, Irene Perez (who I interviewed in episode 36), who was doing the research on the ground for ICEERS. Marc recently published a book called Psychedelic Integration: Psychotherapy for Non-Ordinary States of Consciousness. It was great for me to sit down and talk with Marc as he is doing really good work in this field. As this emerging field of psychedelic therapy becomes more common, voices like Marc and resources such as his book are a vital part of how this work will be integrated and accepted into society. I hope and trust you all will get a lot out of this interview and the wisdom Marc shares.
