  4. 142: YOU are the Medicine

    03/01/2019

    142: YOU are the Medicine

    Beyond the peak experience lies the ceremony of life. How do we sacralize the moment, using the experiences of plant and earth medicines and our innate sensitivity to reveal that WE are the medicine? Can the wave of global psychedelic integration support help us embody the awareness of the lessons of peak states? Can we learn to turn those altered states into altered traits? Join immersive journalist Rak Razam and shamanic mentor Bloom Post in this timely discussion about ceremony, integration and walking a sacred path in life. How does trauma inform our own healing path? How can we learn to navigate the Western psychological paradigm with the shamanic magical paradigm? What is the birth of a healer and can Western culture hold that? Can we learn to appreciate natural sensitives as well as plant medicine mediated connection to the planet? Can we utilize song, dance, trance and archaic techniques of ecstasy into the weave of our lives to potentiate the awareness of awareness?

    141: Climbing the Mountain

    Join immersive journalist Rak Razam and Daniel Sitaram Das Shankin, an integration coach with Tam Integration and Sitting for Psychonauts for a playful dinner discussion in which they discuss the cultural phenomenon known as “psychedelic integration” and the state of mainstreaming psychedelics. Is there a new wave of everyday people switching on to the medical use of psychedelics and if so, how can this wave be culturally integrated? How can modalities like Buddhist Meditation, shamanism, somatic and Jungian Psychology support discussion, guided meditation and psychedelic support services in the community? How can intentions and goals be used in psychedelic journeywork? How can yoga, breath and energetic work be used in preparation, initiation and integration? What recovery practices can be utilized and how can we make sense of our peak experiences and not just return to normal, but raise our baseline? How can we be the better people than psychedelics can give us glimpses of? And can we use the group work of integration circles to establish a true sense of psychedelic community? “First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.” For more information see: https://tamintegration.com And please support this podcast and the emergence of new paradigm media by contributing to: https://www.patreon.com/rakrazam , gracias!

    140: The Yolk of Union

    Join immersive journalist Rak Razam and Samaya Storm (aka. Samantha Sweetwater), a coach, guide and medicine woman as they discuss the planetary zeitgeist as we move into 2019 and the collective shadow coming to the surface. Is our current global culture one strand in the Gaian biome, shot with inflammation and poor signaling response? Do we need a planetary probiotic to reboot us from the duality of perpetrator/victim? Is it time to risk it all and play the God game with genetics, the environment and hacking the human potential? Is that part of our role as Apex Predators on planet earth? Or is there an organismic response moving through us as a species that is gestated by the planetary crisis? Will climate catastrophe draw us together into a collective generosity of spirit, a Yolk of Union? Can we remember our original instructions to tend to nature and be in the Wego, not the Ego? Listen to this far-reaching and provocative discussion to find out! Learn more about Samaya at: https://www.facebook.com/SamayaStorm . Samaya Storm (aka. Samantha Sweetwater) is a globally loved facilitator of embodied awakening who has initiated people into life-centric love & leadership for over 30 year.
