And purify your pain in the light of understanding

Imagine growing up with an abusive father — verbally, mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Nothing you ever did was good enough for him… and you lived your entire life feeling like an abstract failure within his eyes.

He never appreciated you. He never encouraged you. And he never stood in your corner and supported you as you came into your own sense of individuality.

A very rocky road, to say the least.

Naturally, you suppressed that pain and buried it deep within — but throughout your entire life, you still tried to impress him… you still tried to get him to notice you… and you still tried to get him to finally say “Good job, kiddo. I’m proud of you.”

But the payoff never came.

Professionally, the pain never held you back, though. You forged ahead and assumed your role as a natural-born healer. One with powerful and intuitive gifts that could manipulate spiritual energy for the greater good.

Some would call you crazy — but your impact was undeniable.

You became revered as someone who could help others heal.

Over time, though, your own need for healing resurfaced —and after much research and deliberation, you found yourself deep within the jungles of Peru ready to experience the sacred plant medicine known as Ayahuasca.

Now, for those of you who don’t know, Ayahuasca is an ancient psychedelic plant-based brew that was (and still is) used for spiritual and religious purposes in the Amazon.

Anecdotal accounts suggest that even one experience with Ayahuasca can be the equivalent of a lifetime of psychological therapy — and your own experience certainly proved that to be true.

The moment you drank it, a whole new world opened up for you — and you were immediately cast into what can only be described as the spiritual realm beyond the veil.

And it was there that you met your father… but not your father as you know him. This was the source above your father. This was his higher-self — and the two of you had a conversation that changed your life forever.

He apologized for everything. He told you he should have known better. He told you he never meant to cause you pain. And he told you that even though, in this lifetime, his physical being would never understand or appreciate you… he wanted you to know that from higher above, that wasn’t the case.

He could see you from there. He was proud of you. And he admired immensely the remarkable person you’ve become.

And just like that, a pain you carried your entire life began to heal.

Did you actually meet your father that day?

Perhaps. And perhaps not.

But let me ask you this…

If in that moment, you were convinced that you actually spoke to your father’s higher-self… and in that conversation he told you everything you ever needed to hear… and because of that conversation a deeply-rooted source of pain and suffering began to heal…

… does it matter if it was actually real?

Does it matter if it was all just a fabrication of the mind?

I don’t think so.

Because if you actually experienced healing, then who cares.

Healing is healing and it’s always welcome — no matter how it’s disguised.

Now, just to be abundantly clear, I’m not suggesting you make your way to the jungle to drink a psychoactive brew… nor am I suggesting you hand yourself over without guidance to a psychedelic experience of any kind…

… these experiences are very serious and should never be taken lightly.

But what I am saying is that, with proper education, understanding, and guidance, these experiences can often lead to profound healing of deep emotional wounds. Many personal accounts have proven that to be true.

The fact is…

People have used psychedelics for ages as a means to meet their suffering head-on and purify it in the light of understanding — and through that process, transmute their pain into something that helps them heal.

You can’t deny that.

And if your own pain has become too much to bear… or you know that something buried deep within is holding you back from getting the most out of life… then perhaps it’s an option you need to explore.

Perhaps it’s time to let the unseen magic of the Universe lead the way.

Halt right there!
