    One From The Vault - Plant Medicine with Jose Saenz - Episode 19

    Are you feeling the curious calling to learn more about or experience working with plant medicine? Have you been researching Psilocybin or Ayahuasca and wondering what they are and if they are right for you?
    DISCLAIMER: I in no way shape or form make any recommendations that anyone work with plant medicine. My purpose on this show is to remove the blindfolds from the programmed mind and provide access to facts and alternative methods of thinking outside the box we live in. This is a very popular topic these days and one mostly misunderstood. I can assure you, it’s not what you think.
    MY EXPERIENCE: I’ve just returned from the Amazon Jungle in Peru and experienced the most powerful transformation of my life. I’m excited to have the owner and chief Dharma officer Jose Saenz as my guest on the Rise Up with Dragon Podcast on Wednesday, December 14th to unveil the facts of what Ayahuasca is in its purest form and help assist people to better understand the value in plant medicine and determine if it’s a good fit for you. This will be one for the vault.

    One From The Vault - A Case Against Reality with Donald Hoffman - Episode 16

    In this episode of RISE UP WITH DRAGON, we have a very special interview in my opinion one of the most intelligent and intreaguing speakers and educators of our time. Professor Donald Hoffman, Author of A Case Against Reality and cognitive psychologist at UC Irvine. In this episode, Dragon and Donald dive deep into the case against reality, what our purpose iss as humans, if any. As well as some thought provoking conversations regarding how evolution and natural selection in no way has positioned us to be capable of perceiving reality in its true form.

    Makes Sense Mondays - Getting Out of your own way - Episode 15

    I JUST NEED TO GET OUT OF MY OWN WAY? Sound familiar? What does it mean to be in your own way and why are you insistent on being there? We've all been programmed to believe we need to grow into someone different than we are. All the while failing to recognize that who we are is perfect and needs only to be improved upon.
