I talk with Eric Osborne, founder of Mycomeditations. We talk about his journey starting as a young boy, having an ultimate love and connection with nature, reptiles, and being his most authentic self. Eric shares with us how he not only had a fascination with mushrooms and nature, but human conciseness and healing others as well, when he realized the healing properties of of psilocybin through his own personal experiences. This was a great, raw conversation!

Eric made his first annual pilgrimage to Jamaica in 2003 and worked with his first MycoMeditations group there in 2013.

As the first Indiana State Certified Wild Mushroom Expert, a gourmet mushroom cultivator and founder of the non-profit organization PLEDG, (Psychedelic Liberation Education Discipline and Guidance) Eric has committed his life to learning and teaching the benefits of medicinal fungi.

Twenty years of work cultivating, consuming, and administering psilocybin has taught Eric many invaluable lessons. With a sincere and lighthearted approach, he maintains a safe and structured setting for the psilocybin voyager.

This journey has not been an easy one. In 2013 Eric was arrested for hosting psilocybin sessions on his farm. While creating significant challenges, it was the motivation needed to take his work public.

Witnessing the healing effects of psilocybin so many times fueled Eric’s drive to ensure safe, legal access to psilocybin. In 2016, while serving a two year probation sentence Eric invested all of his efforts into building MycoMeditations and PLEDG. The work has continued to grow ever since and the healing has touched hundreds of individuals.
