Feb 2012

Because of her treatment in Montreal.

My understanding is that she was given LSD... She became a psychiatrist however I do not know if she was entirely able to overcome the experience of the LSD especially when she was not guided to understand the out of body aspects to LSD that she was likely to experience.

Since then, I have read Jeremy Narby's great book, 'The Cosmic Serpent' , in which he outlines his experience, as an anthropologist, of taking ayuaska and then experiencing visions similar to those experienced by shamons in that region.

Dr. Jeremy Narby, while staying with the indigenous tribes years ago wanted to understand their rationale for telling him that they derived their knowledge of uses of plants for medicine.. From the plants themselves...

Most interesting book...
