Episode 617: Healing, Psychedelics, and Inner Peace with Austin Mao


Listen Later

You probably know by now that I love the field of psychedelics. The healing power of them is just one of the many topics of conversation with guest Austin Mao. Austin is a serial entrepreneur, author, poet, community builder, and keynote speaker renowned for his expertise at the intersection of science and spirituality, psychology, and shamanism.

Together we explore the integration of psychedelics into modern mental health practices, the pillars of consciousness, and bust some of the common myths about psychedelic retreats and therapy. Austin’s work as co-founder of Ceremonia, a legal and non-profit spiritual sanctuary, reflects his profound commitment to integrating ancient shamanic practices with modern psychological insights to foster personal and collective healing - this conversation is proof of that!

You’ll hear:

  • Austin opens up about restoring his relationship with his father [after his father’s passing in 2016] during a psychedelic retreat experience (4:34) 
  • The three pillars of consciousness: awakening, healing, and manifesting (12:54)
  • How psychedelics integrate into modern mental health practices (30:50)
  • Common misconceptions about psychedelic therapy (41:50)
  • Austin explains how Ceremonia ensures the safety and effectiveness of its retreats (45:36)
