#015: Breaking Down Emotional Firewalls and Building Community | Rob Adeptus


Listen Later

In this episode, we interview Rob from the Adeptus Psychonautica YouTube channel. Rob was first introduced to psychedelic substances as a teenager in England. By his late teens, he had tried a number of substances, but it wasn't until his late 20's and early 30's that Rob realized the potential psychedelics had for personal development and spirituality.

Rob began exploring DMT and traveled to South America to participate in San Pedro and traditional Peruvian ayahuasca ceremonies. Ayahuasca took a sledgehammer to the emotional firewalls he had built up over the years, resulting in a flood of emotions related to his mother's suicide as a young boy. With the help of his family and friends, he was able to acknowledge the pain of his mother's death and having to grow up with her maternal influence in his life. Rob's psychedelic experiences led him to start his YouTube channel as a creative hobby.

Rob's videos include personal trip reports, retreat center reviews, interviews, and live-stream Q&A sessions. He doesn't shy away from controversial topics related to psychedelics and encourages the responsible use of these powerful substances.
