Today, on the 20th of February 2020, thousands of people will “come out” on social media worldwide with their stories of personal healing and transformation using the hashtag #ThankYouPlantMedicine. To celebrate this occasion we are going to have not one but two guests on the podcast.
First up is director Farzin Toussi who will talk about his documentary The Medicine. It’s a documentary about Amazonian shamanism, introducing Taita Juanito Guerillmo Chindoy Chindoy, both a teacher and student of the sacred plant medicine. As Ayahuasca gains popularity in the West, the film explores the science as well as the lore behind the plant and why it is used to heal. Check it out at themedicinedocumentary.com.
Our second guest is Thomas B. Roberts, Ph.D. who is professor emeritus at Northern Illinois University and a former visiting scientist at Johns Hopkins. The Psychedelic Future of the Mind and Mindapps are two of his books.
