In this episode I brought on a dear, childhood friend, Amber Rashid, to talk about the healing benefits of sacred plant medicines. Amber is a Kambo practitioner, Reiki practitioner, life coach, and podcast host as well as a devoted student of this powerful healing work. In this episode, Amber shares a lot of her personal experiences using powerful plant medicines such as Ayahuasca to expand her consciousness and heal from generational trauma.
DISCLAIMER: nothing in this episode is intended to serve as medical advice. We are simply here to share our personal experiences and lessons and truly stand behind the fact that plant medicines are NOT for everyone.
Minor correction: Ayahuasca is made from a vine and a leaf not a vine and a root*
