34. Dr Alberto Villoldo: What is a Shaman?

Dr Alberto Villoldo is a bestselling author, medical anthropologist, teacher, healer and Shaman, with a PhD in Psychology. Join me as I ask Dr Alberto: •What is a Shaman? •How did he discover Shamanism? •What is the science behind plant medicines, or entheogens? •His ingredients for a great recipe for life!And Dr Alberto will share with us: •The importance of waking up, growing up and showing up. •The best diet for accessing our higher 'discoverer' brain. •The plant medicines that switch on longevity genes. Dr Alberto has a deep and broad knowledge, and it was a privilege to have him share some of it with us, like:"The dream of the western society has become such a nightmare that everybody is trying to wake up from it" ."Find your own light so that you don't have to be blinded by the light of another.""When you turn on this higher brain, then spirituality is inevitable."
