The chapter delves into the historical use of psychedelics in spiritual rituals, sharing personal experiences with substances like ayahuasca. The speakers discuss the expansion of consciousness, the importance of proper preparation for psychedelic experiences, the debate surrounding cannabis legalization, and the potential benefits and drawbacks of marijuana use. They also touch on the impact of alcohol on society and the evolving laws around cannabis consumption in Spain.
Dorian Yates is a legendary English bodybuilder 6x former Mr. Olympia who revolutionised the sport by being the first of the so-called “mass monsters.” His “high intensity” philosophy involved pushing each set to failure through techniques such as forced reps, drop sets and partial reps. This allowed him to maximise muscle stimulation in shorter, more intense workouts. After retiring from competitive bodybuilding, Yates has transferred his knowledge into DY Nutrition which offers a line of premium and science-backed products to help people achieve their health goals. Tune in for the next two hours as we explore all things bodybuilding, mindset, spirituality and more.
