Lena is a survivor of long-term child sexual abuse and decided to try healing with guided MDMA journeys. She had an unexpected outcome from her journey work that resulted in a lasting altered state of consciousness. In this episode we talk about the complex nuances of her "soft psychosis" diagnosis and explore why that term doesn't adequately describe her experience.

This show is all about going into the depths of wounding to heal, but don't forget that a huge part of healing is experiencing joy. The season will come to an end in November and there is an end-of-the-season party! Join me on November 16th, 2019 at 8pm, at Tamarack in downtown Oakland. More details are on the Facebook event page or on my website.

Here is Kitty Sipple's presentation at Breaking Convention: Psychedelic Accessibility: Disability, Chronic Illness, & the Psychedelic Experience
