One From The Vault - Plant Medicine with Jose Saenz - Episode 19 May 10, 2024

Show notes

Are you feeling the curious calling to learn more about or experience working with plant medicine? Have you been researching Psilocybin or Ayahuasca and wondering what they are and if they are right for you?

DISCLAIMER: I in no way shape or form make any recommendations that anyone work with plant medicine. My purpose on this show is to remove the blindfolds from the programmed mind and provide access to facts and alternative methods of thinking outside the box we live in. This is a very popular topic these days and one mostly misunderstood. I can assure you, it’s not what you think.

MY EXPERIENCE: I’ve just returned from the Amazon Jungle in Peru and experienced the most powerful transformation of my life. I’m excited to have the owner and chief Dharma officer Jose Saenz as my guest on the Rise Up with Dragon Podcast on Wednesday, December 14th to unveil the facts of what Ayahuasca is in its purest form and help assist people to better understand the value in plant medicine and determine if it’s a good fit for you. This will be one for the vault.

Now armed and aware of your unconscious and automatic response system we are ready to receive an upgrade to your new, improved one that better suits your goals and dreams.
