About
I am making a documentary about my journey out of depression with plant medicine in the hope of raising awareness for "alternative medicine" and therapies to inspire others who are suffering to seek healing through nature.
Impact
I believe the problems humanity is currently facing is the sum total of the same problems we face as individuals: the battle with our ego. Every time an individual heals, a positive ripple effect is created that will eventually heal all of humanity.
Progress
I have filmed and documented my entire journey from the beginning 8 years ago, including many plant medicine ceremonies and countless other healing stories. I only need an editor and a director and / or producer to put all of the footage together.
Team
I wrote a book about my journey called Taking Back My Mind: My Journey Out of Depression with Psilocybin Mushrooms and have been ordained as a "curandero" (shaman) by one of the most powerful mushroom curanderas in the world in Oaxaca, Mexico.
