In this podcast-style episode, I sat down with Nika Monte, a medicine woman and one of my long-time ceremony guardians.
Nika bravely shares one of the most incredible stories I've heard about unsafe Ayahuasca spaces, a kind of ceremony nobody should ever have to go through. She was constantly being shamed, eventually threatened with death by her own shaman and put in a jungle prison cell for calling out some of the ways in which the center operated out of integrity.
It is a common belief that the only proper way to participate in ceremony is in the jungles of Peru, where the plants come from, with a traditional indigenous shaman. I have been opposing this idea for a long time, and in today's podcast you'll have the chance to hear one of the many stories that support this perspective.
I want to thank Nika for bravely opening herself up with so much vulnerability, and for supporting the channel in one of its many missions: to bring awareness about safe psychedelic spaces so that our medicine journeys can create healing and not more trauma.
