bridge between indigenous plant medicines, psychedelic science, art, and

Baltic traditions in this in-depth conversation with ethnobotanist

Dennis McKenna. They explore ayahuasca, psilocybin mushrooms in Latvia, Amanita muscaria, and ancient sauna rituals as a kind of “Latvian

ayahuasca,” touching on symbiosis with nature and how psychedelic

experiences can help heal our disconnection from the natural world.

​

Una shares how synchronicities led her from journalism to co-founding

Arterritory, Spiriterritory, and the NGO Veseliba Latvija, and to

organizing the first psychedelic science conferences in Latvia together

with the University of Latvia. The discussion dives into stigma, legal

grey zones, human rights to psychedelic-assisted therapies, and the

Baltic region’s emerging role in the global psychedelic renaissance.
