This chapter explores a deeply personal experience with 5-MeO-DMT, focusing on the confrontation and acceptance of the ego's role in identity. The narrative highlights profound changes in perception, self-acceptance, and the significance of mystical experiences in personal growth. Additionally, it reflects on the journey from addiction to healing, emphasizing the importance of love and self-discovery in transforming one's life.
In this deep and wide-ranging dialogue with Matt Xian from the Xian Archive podcast, I share my testimony of how the conscious use of psychedelics helped liberate me from issues that just wouldn’t budge by other means. I differentiate the way I used substances earlier in my life from how I choose to engage with these medicines today, and I do my best to explain in words why 5-MeO-DMT is in a category all its own.
We also discuss sound and light technologies as adjuncts to psychedelic journeys—or journeys in themselves, as well as EMF sensitivity and tools you can use to protect yourself.
