Listen to special guest, Austin Mao for an eye-opening discussion on the transformative potential of psilocybin in mental health and personal growth. 

In this episode, the host shares a candid account of their journey with hyperactive bipolar disorder and how self-administered 'hero doses' of psilocybin have brought unprecedented clarity and focus into their life. 

We delve into the importance of addressing past traumas and mental blocks to achieve a balanced and fulfilling existence and discuss real-life practices like "circling," inspired by gestalt therapy, to foster deeper self-awareness and connection.

Listen as we explore how the intentional use of psychedelics can quiet the inner critic and enhance our ability to navigate challenging situations with mindfulness and presence. 

The episode highlights the significance of set and setting in creating outer and inner safety, emphasizing the role of authentic, vulnerable connections in our journey of self-mastery. 

Learn how to transform your life through mindful living, self-empowerment, and genuine human connections, and discover how these elements come together to help us become the best version of ourselves. Whether you're experienced with psychedelics or just curious, this conversation offers valuable insights into the path toward personal and mental well-being.
