Welcome to All About Grandfather San Pedro, our fangirl/fanboy love fest episode for the heart-opening medicine of the Andes mountains. Also known as huachuma and aguacolla, this healing mescaline containing cactus is not only fast growing and sustainable, it just might radically change your life. We don't get too into the chemistry or technical details here, this episode is meant to serve as a primer for anyone who is interested in working with this medicine in a retreat or ceremonial setting. To give you some tips and guidance on what to expect, how to handle the ride, and how to get the most out of your experience.

As usual on The Psychedelic Integration Podcast, we're sharing our personal experience and understandings that have come from years of building a healing partnership with this master plant spirit. We really love San Pedro, and this episode is dedicated to sharing some of the magic and healing that this cactus has brought to our lives.

In this episode, Sinclair and John dive into:

  • San Pedro, the best kept secret in the world of psychoactive healing plants
  • The basics: where it grows, sustainability, mescaline, alkaloids, and why the plant is preferable to a synthetic version
  • A brief history of ancient use, legends, and cultural heritage
  • Ayahuasca is medicine for the soul, San Pedro is medicine for the heart - they both take you to the same place via different routes

  • The wide spectrum of the felt experience, going on an adventure with your grandfather

  • This medicine opens your heart, and it there is hurt in your heart, that is what will come up first
  • The uncomfortable and difficult feelings are already there, the medicine is just revealing what is there so that you can face it and feel it
