We are excited to welcome back Tricia Eastman on the Mangu.tv podcast for an episode of psychedelic confessions.
Tricia is a medicine woman, author, artist, speaker, advocate for the psychedelic movement, and founder of the non-profit platform, Ancestral Heart. She is in the process of creating a wellness and retreat centre with thermal hot springs, on the island of San Miguel in the Azores, to open in 2024. Eastman’s book, Seeding Consciousness: Plant Medicine, Ancestral Wisdom, and the Path to Transcendence is coming out in 2023.
As a medicine woman, Tricia has curated retreats working with 5-MeO-DMT and Iboga for eight years. She has been initiated into multiple branches of Bwiti, the ancestral tradition from Equatorial Africa working with Iboga and facilitating the psychospiritual program with Ibogaine, and 5-MeO-DMT at Crossroads Treatment Center in Mexico.
In this episode Tricia talks about her experiences with psychedelics such as Ayahuasca, Psilocybin, San Pedro, and 5-MeO-DMT. Giancarlo and Tricia discuss the holistic and medicinal uses for CBD, Cannabis and Tobacco, as well as the importance of preparation, integration and embodiment practices alongside psychedelic assisted psychotherapy.
