Psychedelics have been around for many years, and are now making a new statement in therapy. Keith and I dive into the most important aspects of psychedelics as medicine, and how to honor and use them with reverence. Keith states we are in a strong wave of a psychedelic renaissance and it's truly up to us to bring about a beautiful flourishing of consciousness into our current humanity. We each play a vital role and it's all hands on deck to bring about the beauty that is a collective awakening! Psychedelics are here to assist us, especially when we treat them with the utmost respect. Keith is here to assist in the pre and post-integration process which is truly an essential practice for profound change. 

Keith Gilmore writes primarily on culture, ethics, psychology, spirituality, philosophy, and psychedelics. His interest lies in understanding and addressing the tendency of our age towards cynicism, nihilism, finger-pointing, and disconnection, and discovering and exploring methods for interconnection, healing, and reinvigorating culture with spirit. He is the co-founder of Texture Life Coaching, one of the top ranked psychedelic integration coaching programs in the country. Keith also co-created The Integrated Man, a community-oriented program for helping men get into alignment and reconnecting them with their purpose. He facilitates the men's support group for the Portland Psychedelic Society, the largest psychedelic community in North America.

"Your beliefs start with you; the inside creates the outside and the outside is just a mirror of the inside" - Adrian Moreno

What if I told you that you created your reality...all of it...the good, the nasty, the blissful...do you believe me? In this episode, Adrian takes us through a deep dive into how that is scientifically possible and we are all manifesting our reality right before our eyes. He says, "We think we are at the mercy of our reality, but we don't question if that external reality is the byproduct of our thoughts, feelings, and expectations".

Adrian Moreno began his career inside the health & fitness space, while also gaining unparalleled experience with hypnosis & NLP, establishing himself as a respected transformation coach, specializing in behavior change for entrepreneurs and high performers. He has helped more than 200 founders and entrepreneurs make rapid changes to their behavior using the Neurohack method, many say it's been the equivalent to "years worth of therapy in a single session." If Adrian isn't rewiring neural pathways and setting a new standard for how fast change can happen, you can find him writing, meditating or working out.

The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure that you seek. ——  Do the work, and the reward will come, I assure you.

This episode is a real heart-opener. Not only is love universal, but it is also all encompassing. Yet love is jaded from an early start and it's our duty as souls to do the shadow work to come back to our full, true essence of unconditional love. Spoil alert! It only comes from within first.

"IF YOU COULD STAND BACK FAR ENOUGH AND WATCH THE WHOLE PROCESS YOU WOULD SEE YOU ARE A TOTALLY DETERMINED BEING. THE VERY MOMENT YOU WILL WAKE UP IS TOTALLY DETERMINED. HOW LONG YOU WILL SLEEP IS TOTALLY DETERMINED. WHAT YOU WILL HEAR OF WHAT I SAY IS TOTALLY DETERMINED. THERE ARE NO ACCIDENTS IN THIS BUSINESS AT ALL. ACCIDENTS ARE JUST FROM WHERE YOU'RE LOOKING. TO THE EGO, IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S MIRACLES AND ACCIDENTS. NO MIRACLES. NO ACCIDENTS. IT'S JUST YOUR VANTAGE POINT THAT YOU'RE SORT OF STUCK IN" - Ram Dass, Be Here Now

In this episode, Martin and I converse and connect on the beauty within spiritual awakenings and healing. How our experiences are here to help us, guide us, and lead the way. He is a master facilitator in guiding others to tap into the depths of their subconscious, and being a conduit for higher frequencies to assist the souls on earth. He started his coaching practice, Light Trails Co., after a decade of exploring non-ordinary and ordinary reality. The tools and teachings he uses are a combination of disciplines he learned from his teachers yet the strongest foundation lies within the Medicine Wheel and the art of shamanic journeying.

We discuss the theology behind mistakes, the influence of ascended teachers such as Ram Dass, and the importance of connecting with your totem animal. Connect with Martin & discover his incredible work at https://www.lighttrails.co/
