Everything is Personal

An amazing conversation with Jahan Khamsehzadeh, Ph.D., who is a child of immigrants; mother from Mexico and father from Iran. His childhood was painful. He felt alienated at school. By high school he was clinically depressed and suicidal. Existence seemed bleak. A month after graduating high school someone he had just met that day gave me a handful of mushrooms while he was on my way to see my favorite band, Tool, play for the first time. Little did I know it was going to be one of the most significant days of my life. Once Tool hit the stage, the mushroom’s effects began. My experience of time dissolved. There was only this present moment. My consciousness rushed toward a threshold that I perceived to be death. The movie The Matrix came to mind. I felt like the character, Neo, about to be unplugged from the Matrix. And like his first time being unplugged, I did not know what was on the other side. For fifteen minutes I held back from crossing this line and then, out of curiosity, I relaxed and let my being move forward. What occurred was an explosion in my consciousness to a degree I had never experienced. I could feel every cell of my being orgasmically rejoice in love and celebration. I felt eternal—that my consciousness existed before the Big Bang and will exist after death. There was a familiarity to this feeling, as if I had known it all along. Then a voice—strong and not my own—arose in my consciousness to say “Jahan.” I asked if this was real. The voice replied, “Yes.” Every wall I had built in my heart collapsed. I broke into a gushing river of tears for the next 90 minutes. That's the start of his journey and the passion he developed for what he is doing to expand consciousness through psychedelics.

Never in her wildest dreams did Katie expect to create a community like Lavinia. Katie’s original plan in life was kind of the opposite — specifically, she believed her calling in life was to be a nun and prepared for a life of study, reflection, and celibacy… Until, like one does, Katie met a “Francois” during study abroad… and then priorities changed. In stepping away from nunhood and into a life where sexuality is expected, Katie felt behind the eight ball relative to her peers in sexual experience. As a result, she began to research methods and products that would help her feel empowered, pleasured, and promote access to better, more powerful orgasms. Unfortunately, she never found the exact product she was looking for... So she made it herself. Through her research, Katie found that cannabis can enhance orgasms and create a better sexual experience. When correctly applied, cannabis dilates blood vessels, which increases blood flow — this makes achieving an orgasm easier and more intense while making multiple orgasms more accessible. Katie started making it simply for herself, then for friends who would ask for it, then friends of friends, and then friends of friends of friends… From this community came Lavinia. Lavinia’s mission is to enhance peoples sex lives through cannabis and to normalize two historically taboo subjects (sex and cannabis). Lavinia wants to empower people to live life to the climax!
