In Conversation with Evacheska DeAngelis - a podcast by Charles Deist

Show Notes:How did Evacheska go from being an executive in the fashion world to an integrative counselor in the psychedelic world? (1:22)What was it like on the trip to Peru? (4:29)It's difficult for the average person to figure out which places offering psychedelic experiences in Peru, Jamaica, or Costa Rica are real and which ones are trying to make a quick buck. What did you do to ensure that the place you were visiting was righteous? (5:40)Why did Evacheska decide on Ayahuasca as opposed to taking LSD experiences or a series of psilocybin experiences? (10:38)Are the ceremonies and the setting around the psychedelic medicine as important or more important than the medicine itself? (13:08)What's the difference (approach, cultural, medicinal) between opioid prescriptions in American culture and psychedelic ceremonies? (13:50)Why do I need to go to the Peruvian jungle to have a ceremony? Why can't I have the same experience in my own neighborhood? (15:40)How does Evacheska use sound to open neural pathways and have a psychedelic journey, even without psychedelics? (17:46)How does a strong dose of psilocybin compare to an Ayahuasca experience? (21:14)What are the downsides of taking Ayahuasca? (24:15)Considering that Roland Griffith's research showed that a one-time dose of psilocybin still had an effect on depression patients after a year, what's the advantage of taking Ayahuasca three times a week for an entire month? (25:57)Could you imagine a future where people trained in LSD therapy or psilocybin therapy might prescribe taking those three times a week or a month? (27:37)What happens in an integration session?
