127: We Do Syrian Rue + Mimosa
In this episode, we discuss our experiences with the ancient desert plants Syrian Rue and Mimosa!
Syrian Rue and Mimosa are said by some to be the plants that the Ancient Egyptians used ceremonially. Comparable with Ayahuasca, the DMT brew can last 5-8 hours and has a feminine essence. It also has its own uniqueness, many saying it is a gentler brew than Ayahuasca. However, she was not so gentle with us.
In other words, shit gets pretty wild!

Customer Reviews
Authenticity
A big shoutout out to this podcast for being incredibly authentic, loving, and inspirational! As a non Mormon but self proclaimed Hippie Christian, I think this podcast has something great for anyone that is on their healing/spiritual journey or looking to start this journey! Awesome guests with a variety of great topics and learning opportunities! Thanks for providing the space for your listeners!
Love Led Me Out
This episode with Stephanie Brinkerhoff was so inspiring. I was not raised LDS, but hearing it gave me an important perspective on the ways organized religion tries to monopolize our innate spirituality. I can understand my own journey better and for that I am so grateful. ❤️
Life-changing!
This podcast is tapping into a dormant part of me that is coming up for healing, and I am SO ready for it. I have been taking notes from the various episodes for more exploration. Hard to choose, but episode 95, Out of the Echo Chamber w/ Brittany Bannerman, is my favorite so far... so many nuggets of wisdom! Thank you for creating this podcast... you have a loyal listener right here. I've been telling so many friends about this... keep your creativity comin'!
