OURSVP today at iHeartRadio dot 0:00:40.440 --> 0:00:47.360 com slash Cheeky's Hey, guys, As you know, Season four 0:00:47.400 --> 0:00:50.319 of Cheekys and Chill is officially over, but there are 0:00:50.360 --> 0:00:52.160 still some things I want to talk to you about. 0:00:52.600 --> 0:00:55.040 That's why over the next few weeks, we'll be revisiting 0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:57.880 some of my favorite episodes over the last four seasons. 0:00:58.080 --> 0:00:59.960 I'll be sharing where I am now versus where I 0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:03.160 was when I recorded the episode, and also talk about 0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:05.479 how I feel today compared to how I felt. Then, 0:01:06.000 --> 0:01:07.840 I want you to think of these episodes as a 0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:13.119 countdown to something completely new, something coming very soon. Be excited. 0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:28.840 So let's do this, shall we. In this episode you're 0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:32.520 about to listen to, I'm joined by Jose Antonio Badilla 0:01:32.800 --> 0:01:35.800 to talk about micro doscene, which should come as no 0:01:35.880 --> 0:01:39.520 surprise to anyone, because I love it. I'm very open 0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:42.400 about this topic and I'm an advocate for it actually, 0:01:42.920 --> 0:01:45.760 and this is a topic I want to explore a 0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:50.640 lot more next season. So be excited. Anyway. Psychedelics is 0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:56.320 very taboo, especially in our community, Okay, and it's still misunderstood. 0:01:56.600 --> 0:02:00.720 But like I always say, okay, so when you talk, 0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:05.480 that's when you understand, and communication is everything. So I 0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:08.839 want to talk about it. And I am not embarrassed. 0:02:09.080 --> 0:02:11.840 I'm not ashamed. It's not a drug. I don't see 0:02:11.880 --> 0:02:15.239 it as a drug at all. I see psychedelics as medicine. 0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:22.119 You need to use these tools respectfully, lovingly and as 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:27.880 medicine because it truly is that you, guys, and especially 0:02:27.880 --> 0:02:30.440 if you set the intention for it. When I microdose, 0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:35.079 it's not about hallucinating. This is literally that a micro dose. 0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:38.400 That's just going to really help set the tone for 0:02:38.440 --> 0:02:40.320 the rest of my week, because it's not something that 0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:42.040 you take one time and then it just it's a 0:02:42.080 --> 0:02:46.120 forever fix. No, it's something you have to well. For me, 0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:47.680 I'm going to do for the rest of my life. 0:02:48.800 --> 0:02:52.640 I do ceremonies as well, with larger amounts, but of 0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:55.560 course with a facilitator, because it's something that you again 0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:58.280 need to do respectfully and with a lot of precaution. 0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:00.200 But when I do it at home, I take a 0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:02.760 little bit, I pray over it, I set my intention, 0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:07.119 and it has helped me in every single area of 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:10.040 my life. I think it has saved my life, guys. 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:12.640 So that's why I wanted to talk about it, and 0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:15.400 I'm going to talk about it again next season. We're 0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:18.720 going to talk a lot about these things, actually, and 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:21.079 I know I'm going to get backlash, and that's okay. 0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:25.120 It's something I'm used to and that's why I'm here. 0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:28.000 It's to make a difference, especially in our community, because 0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:31.760 we need. All we need, guys, is knowledge. I think 0:03:31.800 --> 0:03:35.080 when we share knowledge and we are willing to talk 0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:38.320 about these things that may be uncomfortable to other people, 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:44.600 that's when change happens. In those uncomfortable conversations that sometimes 0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:49.400 cause a little bit of like a debate, And that's okay. 0:03:49.440 --> 0:03:52.360 I think debates are healthy guys, Right, Brianna and Pablo, 0:03:52.440 --> 0:03:54.480 I think that's okay. We don't always have to, like, 0:03:55.720 --> 0:03:58.160 you know, agree on everything, as long as we're willing 0:03:58.240 --> 0:04:01.400 to listen to learn. Yes, right, yep. 0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:04.200 Because you're not telling people to do it. You're just 0:04:04.280 --> 0:04:06.800 telling us about your experience. Hey, You're free to make 0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:08.880 your own decisions. If you don't want to do it, 0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:10.840 if it's not your thing, then you don't have to 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:11.120 do it. 0:04:11.480 --> 0:04:14.560 Exactly. That's exactly what I keep telling everyone, like in 0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:17.680 the interviews when they ask about the album, and you 0:04:17.720 --> 0:04:21.280 know what I did and the type of indigenous medicine 0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:22.920 that I did, And I'm like, look, this is something 0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:25.320 that called me. It's something that calls you. It calls 0:04:25.320 --> 0:04:28.240 your interests and you need to do your research. And 0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:30.240 it's not just something I'm like, hey, yeah, do it. No, 0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:33.800 that would be very irresponsible of me. I'm just saying 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:36.640 this is what has worked for me. You do your research, 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:40.360 You find someone and do it responsibly, and do it lovingly, 0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:43.680 even even with weed, even with cannabis, guys, like, that's 0:04:43.720 --> 0:04:47.240 a medicine as well that I have misused in the past, 0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:50.040 and now I know and I have a different relationship 0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:52.960 with it because it is medicine and it's way better 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:56.520 in my opinion, to do these types of medicines that 0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:58.720 come from the Earth than anything that's man made in 0:04:58.760 --> 0:05:03.320 a lab. That is again my personal opinion, but to 0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:04.240 your research, guys. 0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:08.520 I don't know that we talked about this in this episode, 0:05:08.560 --> 0:05:11.080 but something that sort of just came to my mind 0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:14.040 right now was do you remember sort of your first time, 0:05:15.040 --> 0:05:17.720 what that felt like, why you decided to Actually, I'm 0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:18.160 sure you were. 0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:20.279 You had been thinking about it a little bit before 0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:23.120 you actually pulled the triggers, so maybe you can walk 0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:24.719 us through that a little bit. 0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:28.440 So there's this woman. Her name is Patti Rodriguez. I'm 0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:30.360 sure some of you, if not a lot of you, 0:05:30.400 --> 0:05:34.599 know who she is. She was a co host with 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:38.160 Ryan Seacres. Actually, she's been on Mikeldura. She we all 0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:40.480 we did like a panel episode as well she was on, 0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:46.640 So she's amazing. She's fabulous. AnyWho, I spoke to her. 0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:50.920 We were at an event and a podcast event actually, 0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:54.600 and there after the event we went to go have 0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:57.599 lunch and she asked me, like, have you ever tried 0:05:58.279 --> 0:05:59.400 magic mushrooms? 0:05:59.480 --> 0:05:59.680 You know? 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:03.360 And I'm like, I, this is a confirmation and this 0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:05.479 is why I'm telling you it calls you guys. Because 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:08.239 I was already kind of looking into it. Then comes 0:06:08.279 --> 0:06:11.120 this a woman who I admire very much, and she says, 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:14.719 I've been doing it. Look into it. I highly recommend it. 0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:16.320 It's changed my life. And I said, okay, this is 0:06:16.360 --> 0:06:19.760 confirmation for me. I spoke to her. I got some 0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:24.840 and the first time I did it, I remember just 0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:28.479 feeling a little like fuzzy, not weird, it just felt 0:06:28.520 --> 0:06:31.400 a little fuzzy. I felt like, Ooh, something is happening. 0:06:31.440 --> 0:06:34.599 I feel little tingly. It was very little amount, but 0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:36.960 still it was my first time, so I don't get 0:06:36.960 --> 0:06:41.280 those feelings anymore. But I just remember like my meditation 0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:44.159 being a lot deeper and I was a lot more present, 0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:47.120 and when I opened my eyes all the colors were 0:06:47.279 --> 0:06:50.480 a lot brighter. The music that I was listening to, 0:06:51.400 --> 0:06:53.960 I could feel it. It was resonating with me. I 0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:56.840 could feel the frequencies and I was like, ooh, I 0:06:56.920 --> 0:06:59.599 like this, like this is freaking cool because everything was 0:06:59.640 --> 0:07:06.080 just and and like my senses were were even more 0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:10.000 I'm sorry, oh heightened, heightened, yes, thank you, that's the word. 0:07:10.000 --> 0:07:12.200 They were heightened where I'm like, oh my god, everything, 0:07:12.400 --> 0:07:15.520 my food tasted better, like I don't know, And that's 0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:18.360 what I felt. Again, I wasn't like seeing any patterns 0:07:18.400 --> 0:07:20.960 or hallucinating like. It was nothing like that, guys. It's 0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:24.480 just a feeling and my meditation and my connection to God. 0:07:24.480 --> 0:07:27.240 I felt more connected because again that was my intention 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:29.360 behind them, like I want to feel you God, like 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:32.920 that was what I wanted to feel. I've done microdosing 0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:35.920 in different settings, guys, and I didn't like it. I 0:07:35.960 --> 0:07:37.640 did it like at a concert, and it was just 0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:40.240 a little too over stimulating for me. So that's how 0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:44.400 I knew, like mushrooms and alcohol, I don't like to 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:47.320 mix any of that stuff together. It just didn't work 0:07:47.360 --> 0:07:49.920 for me. It actually threw me over the edge. So 0:07:49.920 --> 0:07:52.320 that's why I'm saying a lot of people misuse the 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:55.160 medicine and do it in a party setting, and you 0:07:55.280 --> 0:07:57.200 just have to be careful. That's all I'm saying, Like, 0:07:57.560 --> 0:07:59.640 be careful. If that works for you, awesome, it didn't 0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:01.440 work for me. So now I just do it in 0:08:01.440 --> 0:08:04.320 a spiritual setting to meditate. But the first time was 0:08:05.120 --> 0:08:07.960 freaking awesome. Thank you. Patty Rodriguez shout out to Patty. 0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:11.720 Records, and you said, this is something that you think 0:08:11.760 --> 0:08:14.840 you're going to do forever. Do you think you're still 0:08:14.880 --> 0:08:18.880 getting the results that you were looking for, ques still 0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:21.000 making you feel the way that you want to feel. 0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:25.200 That's a great question. Yes, one hundred, one hundred and 0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:29.360 ten percent. I am getting everything that I ask I 0:08:29.360 --> 0:08:34.320 think because I've built a very beautiful relationship with this 0:08:34.440 --> 0:08:40.120 medicine that anything I asked for, Like I see it, 0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:44.280 I see it coming to life and becoming a reality 0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:47.920 in one way or another. And I feel like things 0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:51.600 are connecting better in my mind, like my neurology it 0:08:51.679 --> 0:08:55.040 knew were how do you say that word neurologically? Thank 0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:58.560 you so much, Breonna, that word things are you know, hey, 0:08:58.640 --> 0:09:01.440 I need to take some actually, but no, like I 0:09:01.440 --> 0:09:03.960 feel like these are just connecting, like on a cellular 0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:09.280 level in my brain as well. So my confidence is 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:13.439 better all that stuff. Like even the sad days guys 0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:17.400 are not that sad anymore. I still have them, but 0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:19.280 then I know I'm like, oh, I have a microdose 0:09:19.320 --> 0:09:20.640 for two weeks, I got to get back on it. 0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:22.480 So when I'm on top of it once a week, 0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:25.200 I'm freaking golden. You guys, I feel like I can 0:09:25.200 --> 0:09:28.439 almost fly. So yeah, I'm for sure going to do 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:29.640 it for the rest of my life. And the media 0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:32.880 loves it. So that's like my favorite medicine of all 0:09:32.960 --> 0:09:34.359 our magic mushrooms. 0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:34.800 Yeah. 0:09:34.800 --> 0:09:37.040 Oh gosh, forgive me if I've missed this. 0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:42.400 You mentioned being asked about microdocing as it sort of 0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:45.680 relates to your new album. Did you are you able 0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:48.320 to maybe tell us a little bit about how you 0:09:48.440 --> 0:09:50.320 used it or how it influenced your music. 0:09:50.960 --> 0:09:51.120 Oh? 0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:55.320 Yes, So when I first did I was. I started 0:09:55.360 --> 0:09:58.520 up with microdosing and then I found the retreat that 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:01.000 we've talked about on the podcast is well the very 0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:03.040 first time in twenty twenty four, in April that I 0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:06.080 went to Mexico that I did a hero which you 0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:08.040 call a hero dose, and you need to be with 0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:09.880 people that are going to take care of you. This 0:10:10.040 --> 0:10:14.040 is like a serious thing. So when I did that, 0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:17.720 I think that's when everything changed for me, When my 0:10:17.880 --> 0:10:21.840 taste in my own music started to change, and it 0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:24.520 prepared me for what was going to come, which was 0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:29.160 the miscarriage that year, and getting married and seeing my 0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:31.640 mom and my dad and healing that and healing my 0:10:31.679 --> 0:10:35.640 inner child. That's when it all started. So it gave 0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:40.520 me the tools very clearly to heal the inner child. 0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:43.080 And once I did that, certain things that I was 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:45.240 doing in my life and in my career just weren't 0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:49.720 going anymore. They just weren't meshing. They just didn't make sense. 0:10:50.400 --> 0:10:55.560 So because of the mushrooms and continuing, you know, this 0:10:55.720 --> 0:10:58.160 medicine and doing the combo that I did, I did combo. 0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:03.320 I've also done other medicines and I think that it 0:11:03.440 --> 0:11:06.320 just kind of opened something in my heart in a 0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:09.440 different way to write different poems in different music. So 0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:13.800 I do definitely owe it to this indigenous medicine and 0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:17.000 the retreats that I've gone to because it's opened my 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:20.760 heart again, like it really has, and it's made me 0:11:20.800 --> 0:11:24.160 feel safe, and it's given me the confidence because I 0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:26.360 hear God's voice. I know that sounds crazy, but I do. 0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:29.280 Like when you're on this medicine, like you hear and 0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:32.440 you feel God in a different way, And it gave 0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:35.400 me the confidence I needed to make this music. So 0:11:36.160 --> 0:11:37.960 That's why I'm like, it has a lot to do 0:11:38.080 --> 0:11:41.000 with this big change. It's been a two year thing, 0:11:41.360 --> 0:11:48.199 almost three. I was missing something, so I started microdosing, 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:51.040 and it actually works and it helps and for anxiety 0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:54.160 and depression. It's helped me a lot, and that's why 0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:56.640 I started doing it psychedelics. 0:11:56.800 --> 0:11:59.840 It's given us a chance to actually connect with ourselves. 0:12:00.040 --> 0:12:02.200 Once we do that, we connect with nature, we connect 0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:04.520 with everybody else and eventually the universe. 0:12:05.840 --> 0:12:08.680 I want this medicine to bring the best out in me, 0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:10.840 to make me a better version of myself, to heal 0:12:10.880 --> 0:12:13.120 my mind, body in so it's like I want to 0:12:13.160 --> 0:12:15.360 have a good experience. I'm intending that I want to 0:12:15.360 --> 0:12:22.760 be the best self. Happy Monday, guys, How is everyone 0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:25.520 doing today? I hope you guys are doing fabulous. It's 0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:29.559 Better by stan Lea Samana Superban. I'm really looking forward 0:12:29.679 --> 0:12:32.600 to today's episode because we're going to be talking about 0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:36.400 something I've hinted at over the last few months, microdosing. 0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:38.680 I told you guys how it's changed my life, but 0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:41.160 I haven't really said too much more about it, and 0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:43.200 that's because I wanted to wait until we had a 0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:46.720 perfect guess. So Now that we have that person, let's 0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:59.320 dive right into it. This is Cheeky's and Chill. Our 0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:03.319 guest today is Antonio Badiyah. He's an artist, writer and 0:13:03.440 --> 0:13:08.720 the host of two podcasts, LEAs and Secreta. Squila Secreta 0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:11.760 is actually part of the family, you guys, the micro 0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:14.920 Dura podcast network. So welcome to the show. Welcome back, 0:13:16.120 --> 0:13:17.840 Thank you so much. I'm so happy to have you here. 0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:20.920 Love that Pincenti Forson, I was like, I need to 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:22.719 talk about micro docing because I've mentioned it on the 0:13:22.760 --> 0:13:25.640 podcast a lot, but I don't know enough about it yet. 0:13:25.760 --> 0:13:27.839 So I was like, I need someone that's open about 0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:30.120 this and has an open mind and has tried it, 0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:32.240 so let's talk about it. 0:13:33.400 --> 0:13:36.679 Quick disclosure, I'm not a medical professional or anything, so 0:13:36.960 --> 0:13:40.880 everybody that wants to try this just ask medical professional first. 0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:43.600 But I can give you all of my everything I've 0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:46.319 read from Timothy Leary and the DMT spirit molecule and 0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:49.000 all of these things and my personal experience. Okay, so 0:13:49.559 --> 0:13:51.640 this is incredible. I think it's really important that we 0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:52.439 talk about. 0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:54.400 This, yes see. And this is why because I think 0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:57.080 when we had our first conversation here on Chiki's and chill. 0:13:57.480 --> 0:14:03.120 We touched a little bit about what's not yamada ayahuasca, 0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:10.959 chaska a yahasca, okay ayah ayahuasca. I still haven't tried it, 0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:13.000 so we talked a little bit about that stuff. So 0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:15.280 that's why I thought about you. And again, you guys 0:14:15.400 --> 0:14:18.560 like likes Antonio just said, we are not qualified professionals. 0:14:19.040 --> 0:14:21.400 It's just I wanted to have an open conversation with 0:14:21.480 --> 0:14:24.440 someone that is open about it. And anyways, so let's 0:14:24.480 --> 0:14:28.040 talk about it, okay, Lamps said, what four or five 0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:28.920 years ago something like that. 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:36.120 Yeah, like as an exercise, and I've been reading about 0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:39.280 it and train it and I have my journals and 0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:43.040 it's as therapy because I started. I did acid when 0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:46.080 I was younger. It changed my life completely LSD and 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:48.560 it was a bad trip, but it just it confronted 0:14:48.640 --> 0:14:50.840 me with my ego and it just changed the way 0:14:50.880 --> 0:14:53.920 I saw the world and my family and myself. And 0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:56.640 when I got older, I said, like, Okay, let's get 0:14:56.680 --> 0:14:59.520 into this, but for real, like let's read into it. 0:14:59.720 --> 0:15:04.160 Let's actually use it to further my mind, my spirit 0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:07.800 and you know, control the ego, because I think that's 0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:09.960 what this is all about, and that's how I started, 0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:13.120 and that's how I got it into psychedelics and microdosin 0:15:13.680 --> 0:15:16.680 and it helped a lot because I have I'm not diagnosed, 0:15:16.720 --> 0:15:19.400 but obviously I have like ADHD and dyslexia and all 0:15:19.440 --> 0:15:19.920 of that stuff. 0:15:20.000 --> 0:15:23.400 He said, obviously. Yeah, you're so funny. 0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:26.880 I was born in the eighties, so I was never diagnosed. 0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:29.240 That was good because I was never drugged or anything. 0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:33.800 So I'm where I am thanks to my crazy, bizarre, 0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:35.040 absurd mind. 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:38.040 To your very beautiful mind, I mean inopian sas you 0:15:38.080 --> 0:15:41.520 have a very expanded just like I can tell you're 0:15:41.520 --> 0:15:43.200 an intelligent person. And I want to talk to you 0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:45.120 about so many questions. I mean so many questions. I 0:15:45.120 --> 0:15:47.360 want to talk to about so many things. It's a 0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:52.240 beautiful mind. But why okay, Mira Joe John peeses the psychedelics. 0:15:52.280 --> 0:15:54.480 My brother actually was the first one I started doing it, 0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:55.840 and he wanted me to do it with him, like 0:15:56.000 --> 0:15:59.320 three Christmases ago. Can No, I'm not ready, Like I 0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:02.960 just wasn't ready. I thought it's something bad because I 0:16:03.320 --> 0:16:05.720 grew up with Oh, it's a drug, and and you 0:16:05.840 --> 0:16:14.080 shouldn't And I said, exact, don't meditate, don't do yoga 0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:16.160 because it takes you to a different dimension and you're 0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:19.040 not supposed to see that. And that's I feel like 0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:23.400 very like religion can be very with Sino Nadia because 0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:25.680 I respect all religions. There's a lot of beautiful things 0:16:25.720 --> 0:16:28.840 from every religion, you guys. So that's where my thoughts came. Finally, 0:16:28.920 --> 0:16:32.640 I said, I started looking at documentaries on psychedelics on 0:16:32.920 --> 0:16:36.560 LSD on how these things can really heal our body, 0:16:36.640 --> 0:16:39.160 mind and soul literally, So I said, okay, this is 0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:41.960 right up my alley. I like meditating, I like hiking. 0:16:42.120 --> 0:16:45.240 I feel like I was missing something, so I tried 0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:47.640 it and I started microdosing and a friend of mine 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:49.400 actually was the one that introduced me, and she gave 0:16:49.480 --> 0:16:52.040 me some. It actually works and it helps, and it 0:16:52.080 --> 0:16:56.480 can exactly it frees your mind and it can really 0:16:56.640 --> 0:16:59.800 heal you, and you can stop taking in my opinion, 0:17:00.160 --> 0:17:02.920 prescribe medication. I'm not saying that. Obviously, you got to 0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:05.359 talk to your doctrine all that stuff, but for anxiety 0:17:05.400 --> 0:17:08.760 and depression, it's helped me a lot, and that's why 0:17:08.840 --> 0:17:16.159 I started doing it. Yeah, okay, bis missus on stage persona. 0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:17.159 I feel just. 0:17:19.600 --> 0:17:20.680 I don't even know how to explain it. 0:17:20.800 --> 0:17:26.240 But I'm like, since you don't care, you're free and 0:17:26.359 --> 0:17:29.080 you're free to care, right, but your free to care 0:17:29.119 --> 0:17:31.720 about what really matters, so you can let go of 0:17:31.920 --> 0:17:33.840 anxiety and all of these things. And what you're saying 0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:37.320 is true. There's actually a lot of studies they're using MDMA, 0:17:38.680 --> 0:17:42.640 psycho cybuline, mushrooms and LSD to cure PTSD and they're 0:17:42.680 --> 0:17:46.359 having amazing results with this. This is science space, but 0:17:46.920 --> 0:17:49.840 it's hard because since they're still illegal in some places. 0:17:50.200 --> 0:17:53.400 Well it's hard to have actual scientific studies when you're 0:17:53.520 --> 0:17:57.560 managing something illegal, right, right, But I think microtosis are 0:17:57.880 --> 0:17:59.840 what are we start with the beginning, Like a microdos 0:18:00.119 --> 0:18:04.160 is about one tenth of the regular dose. So let's 0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:07.359 say you would take one gram of mushroom. That would 0:18:07.400 --> 0:18:10.520 be like the norm like for a regular psychedelic trip, 0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:14.200 So you would take one tenth of a gram and 0:18:14.320 --> 0:18:15.320 that's your micro dose. 0:18:15.600 --> 0:18:19.040 Okay, So that's why I'm doing Maman's right, Okay, sopoco. 0:18:19.160 --> 0:18:22.040 You could do it in one right, like do have 0:18:22.119 --> 0:18:24.000 a big trip, or you could do micro dose in 0:18:24.000 --> 0:18:25.600 which is I do every two to three days? 0:18:26.000 --> 0:18:29.680 Yes, and that's important actually, Okay, So and it differs 0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:31.840 in this way with the micro dos, and this is 0:18:31.840 --> 0:18:34.680 what's so beautiful. But you will not trip. You will 0:18:34.720 --> 0:18:37.320 not get the visuals, you will not get all those 0:18:37.560 --> 0:18:40.640 super tingly feelings. You will not talk to the plants, 0:18:40.800 --> 0:18:46.359 and so you only get this feeling of just incredible 0:18:46.440 --> 0:18:49.640 well being. You'll be able to concentrate, you'll be able 0:18:49.680 --> 0:18:52.960 to get your ideas together, and this this feeling of 0:18:53.200 --> 0:18:57.879 everything's okay, yes, without the tripping part. So that's important. 0:18:57.920 --> 0:19:00.640 You can go on throughout your day like everything is normal. 0:19:00.720 --> 0:19:04.000 Nobody will even be able to tell Yeah, it is important. 0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:07.240 It's really important that you you have a diary for 0:19:07.480 --> 0:19:09.800 because most people will go like, well, nothing happened, that's 0:19:09.840 --> 0:19:12.840 the point. But if you look back and you think 0:19:12.880 --> 0:19:15.400 about how your last week or two weeks, you're gonna 0:19:15.400 --> 0:19:18.120 be like, well, actually I was really happy, I slept well, 0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:21.320 I wasn't anxious, I was really creative. And that's when 0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:23.600 you can really feel like, oh, this is actually working for. 0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:28.400 Me, Yes exactly, yo, ma, I'm like feeling a little better. 0:19:28.480 --> 0:19:31.760 But I was sick for like two weeks metumbo. 0:19:33.040 --> 0:19:33.240 Fat. 0:19:33.720 --> 0:19:36.320 But when I did micro dose during those days, and 0:19:36.400 --> 0:19:38.000 I don't know if it's just a mental thing. I 0:19:38.040 --> 0:19:41.440 don't know. But I started feeling sad again. And the 0:19:41.520 --> 0:19:45.359 difference that I see with micro dosing is that I 0:19:45.400 --> 0:19:47.800 don't feel as sad. I don't feel like I just 0:19:47.960 --> 0:19:49.440 like you said, I just feel like everything's going to 0:19:49.480 --> 0:19:51.800 be okay. And I set an intention every time. It's 0:19:51.800 --> 0:19:56.960 not just amlas look you memos, but I set an 0:19:57.000 --> 0:19:59.560 attention and I pray, and I pray over my medicine 0:19:59.560 --> 0:20:01.360 and I call it medicine and I drink it with water, 0:20:01.520 --> 0:20:03.879 and I don't feel anything anymore because I think your 0:20:03.920 --> 0:20:06.159 body gets used to it fairly quickly. So if I 0:20:06.280 --> 0:20:08.320 want to drink instead of two pills, I drink three. 0:20:08.840 --> 0:20:10.280 And I don't know about all the grams and stuff 0:20:10.320 --> 0:20:11.680 like that, you guys, but I just know that I'm 0:20:11.680 --> 0:20:14.000 micro dos is very little. He went on, I feel 0:20:14.000 --> 0:20:16.520 more creative and I just feel different. And I started 0:20:16.520 --> 0:20:17.879 doing it again. Yeah you want to say, man, and 0:20:17.920 --> 0:20:20.960 I feel I just feel like better again, not say 0:20:21.560 --> 0:20:23.160 I'm in see. 0:20:23.440 --> 0:20:25.080 And what it does is I mean I was telling 0:20:25.119 --> 0:20:27.719 you the important part about giving it one or two 0:20:27.800 --> 0:20:30.439 days before every take. Oh, yes, so that you can 0:20:30.600 --> 0:20:33.320 get rid of it, and then it'll hit you just 0:20:33.480 --> 0:20:35.800 like the first take because if you take it every day, 0:20:36.240 --> 0:20:38.360 although there's some people that say, like, take it from 0:20:38.400 --> 0:20:42.159 Monday to Friday and then don't take it Saturday and Sunday. 0:20:42.640 --> 0:20:44.080 The thing is you need to let your body get 0:20:44.160 --> 0:20:47.600 rid of it so you don't build up tolerance, because 0:20:47.600 --> 0:20:49.400 then you'll need three or four or five. Then it's 0:20:49.400 --> 0:20:51.680 not a micro dose anymore. Right, there's nothing wrong with it, 0:20:51.840 --> 0:20:53.720 but you want to keep the micro dose at least 0:20:53.960 --> 0:20:58.040 for your normal settings. Like for me, I do LSD 0:20:58.359 --> 0:21:01.200 and much room micro dose. I found out that for 0:21:01.400 --> 0:21:05.560 my brain, my brain just it works incredibly well with LSD. 0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:06.280 I see. 0:21:06.600 --> 0:21:08.960 So you know, I were writing. I investigate all the 0:21:09.280 --> 0:21:11.480 true crime and the ghost stuffs and everything, so I'm 0:21:11.480 --> 0:21:15.040 always reading and writing. And the first thing I realized 0:21:15.119 --> 0:21:17.560 with micro dos in is that I could recall names. 0:21:17.560 --> 0:21:20.119
