Have you ever considered how plant medicine could impact your life? Join me as I engage in an intimate and transformational conversation with our dear friend and sister, Alison -- a dedicated bodywork practitioner and authentic plant medicine enthusiast. Alison opens up about her youthful struggles with anxiety and physical illness, and invites us on her journey of self-discovery, starting from the age of 16 when she turned to yoga and mindfulness to help manage her mental state.

We journey with Alison as she shares her profound experiences with psychedelic and plant medicines, including her first encounter with ayahuasca in a safe, ceremonial setting, and her deeply transformative experience with Bufo. Hear about how Alison prepared her body, mind and spirit for these experiences, and how the ceremonies aided her in reconnecting with her true self, and in doing so, abandoned her chase for external validation. Learn about her experiences with Santa Maria and ayahuasca ceremonies and the awe they inspired within her.

We wrap up this potent conversation discussing the significant role of integration and trauma-informed practices for holistic healing and transformation. Alison emphasizes the virtues of journaling, tuning into our bodies, and nurturing self-compassion throughout our journey. Hear about her current pursuits, her plans to deepen her relationship with plant medicine, and her aspiration to share its healing powers with others. Inspiring, enlightening, and profoundly personal, this episode is a testament to the transformative power of plant medicine on our journey towards self-love and authenticity. Tune in and embark on this extraordinary journey with us.
