  • Ayahuasca - The Spirit Molecule
    2021/02/02

    Ayahuasca ceremonies have been getting a lot of press around the world recently for their potential beneficial impact on mental health, addiction, and a variety of other health matters, but what is Ayahuasca? and why has this ancient hallucinogenic South American plant been generating interest from the modern world of science and medicine?  What can be learned from this plant? and how might it play a role in the treatment of mental health conditions in the future? In this episode, David speaks with a friend (called "Sue" for the purposes of protecting her identity) to learn about her very personal and spiritual journey with Ayahuasca.
