  • How Guided Psilocybin & Ketamine Journeys Healed My Trauma (Science Behind It) - Michelle Schalin - #143

    In this powerful excerpt from my upcoming documentary Altered States (still in post-production), meet Michelle — a lifelong healer who spent years mastering breathwork, meditation, and mindfulness yet still felt disconnected. Her first gentle psilocybin experience in Indonesia brought her back to childlike wonder and helped release decades of buried trauma. Later, guided ketamine sessions gave her the reset she needed to break free from feeling "stuck."

    Key Highlights:

    - How a mild psilocybin journey made her feel fully present.

    - The profound healing of unhealed trauma.

    - shifting subconscious beliefs, and finding deep peace and liberation

    - Why "bad trips" aren't really bad — they’re invitations to process emotions with surrender and practice (backed by her own challenging yet beneficial experiences)

    - Ketamine as a gentle, observant reset: lifting sadness, restoring balance, and reigniting motivation without intense visuals or emotions

    - The importance of professional guidance, preparation, and integration for safe, lasting change.


    Curious about Healing?

    Psychedelic therapy is an emerging field with growing evidence. Clinical studies show psilocybin and ketamine can help with trauma, depression, and stuck patterns in supervised settings. (Always consult professionals — this is not medical advice.)


    If you’re curious about guided psychedelic medicine, inner healing, or what happens when trauma finally releases, watch this clip!

    #purpose #mindfulness #viktorfrankl

    Viktor Frankl’s One Sentence That Gave me Meaning Again.I've felt lost, invisible, and pointless many times in my life. Then I re-read this one passage from Viktor Frankl and everything changed.“He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.”

    - Which is actually attributed by Nietzche.

    This video combines Frankl’s most powerful ideas on purpose with my real story of finding meaning in the most ordinary moments – cleaning your house, self care, working a day job etc. If you’ve ever wondered “What’s my purpose?” or felt like your life is too small to matter… this is for you.

    Book mentioned: “Man’s Search for Meaning” by Viktor E. FranklA companion Journal 21 Reflections on Living life with Purpose, by Pam Roy and Moira Hummel, with a foreword by Viktor Frankls Grandson, Alexander Vesely Frankl.
