#10 Talk With James W Jesso | Psychedelic Experiences, Ayahuasca, Mindfulness
This week I am talking with James W Jesso. He is an author of books such as decomposing the shadow, the true light of darkness and soundscapes and psychedelics. He is host of popular podcast Adventures through the mind and an established public speaker in the field of psychedelics. His work was sparked via his own personal journey of healing. Having experienced depression, substance abuse, and trauma, he now focuses on translating the profound insights of his psychedelic experience into a higher quality of life, for both the individual and society. We welcome James to Shaman’s shed.
