Mushrooms, Unflinching Trust and Online Ceremonies with Monica Cromhout The Psychedelic Society South Africa Podcast

    • Mental Health

On the first ever episode of The Psychedelic Society South Africa Podcast, our host Nate Maingard interviews the 'mushroom grandmother', Monica Cromhout.

Monica has a kind of innocence and a very deep and organic sense of trust in life, and in that way is truly a phenomenal embodiment of the spirit of the mushrooms.

She shares her unbelievable story, from her stumbling into Ayahuasca in a Graham Hancock book to hosting more people for mushroom ceremonies than anyone else in South Africa. 



Topics covered include:




Monica's ongoing experience of spearheading the court case to change the unconstitutional laws around psilocybin mushrooms in South Africa.
Why she thinks that the psychedelic renaissance is the most important thing happening right now.
How free falling into your depression is an essential part of your healing.
The surprisingly successful global online ceremonies that have been taking place since COVID.
Much more!



A true hero of the modern times, we are so honoured to present you with Monica Cromhout as our first guest. Please sit back, relax and enjoy!
