Retelling the History of Psychedelic Mushrooms: From Ancient Rituals to Modern Healing with Liz Bowden(83)

How the Wise One Grows

In this episode, Liz Bowden shares herstory of the history of psychedelic mushrooms, challenging preconceived narratives surrounding them. If you haven't listened to Ep 5 with Liz on Microdosing Mushrooms, go back and listen before starting this episode.
From the ancient Greeks and the war on drugs to modern micro-dosing, it's time to rewrite the narratives we have been told about psilocybin and navigate conversations around psychedelic use, debunk myths, and shine a light on their potential for healing and reconnect us with nature. We emphasize the importance of using these substances with reverence and intention, reflecting on their role in human evolution.
Disclaimer: This episode is not advocating for the use of mushrooms. These medicines must be honored, respected, and are not for everyone.
