Several months ago, I had a life-changing experience with psychedelic-assisted therapy using psilocybin, a.k.a. “magic” mushrooms. It was the most powerful, emotional catharsis that cracked me open – and I’m deeply grateful for my amazing facilitator Aphyna Zoe, who is here with us today!

Aphyna Zoe is a licensed facilitator for psychedelic-assisted therapy, a sound healer, astrologer, and ceremonial guide called to support those on the precipice of change. Aphyna weaves sound healing into her work, using vibration and frequency to guide others into deep states of relaxation, soothing the nervous system and creating space for the body’s innate healing wisdom to emerge. Through her empathic presence, she offers a safe, loving, and transformative space for those seeking deep healing and personal growth with psilocybin-assisted therapy.

In this episode, Aphyna talks about what psilocybin is, the science behind its powerful healing effects, and how it transformed her own life. We go into detail about Aphyna’s work as a licensed facilitator and the full arc of the journey that she guides her clients through. She also provides key insights on the astrology of the upcoming months and what’s happening in the collective.

As someone who’s experienced Aphyna’s work first hand, I am so deeply grateful for this incredible gift that she’s offering the world. She creates this beautiful sacred ritual and container around the whole experience and holds space for you with the compassion and patience of an angel. So if you’ve ever been curious about psilocybin therapy, I cannot recommend Aphyna highly enough as a facilitator!
