Many people struggle with addiction their whole lives. Their story one of (hu)man vs. addiction, their story often ending with addiction the victor. But what if that is not the way the story needs to be written? What if there is a way out that helps us suffering to reach into the root of our pain and find our love for life again? The guests for this episode of the podcast, Elizabeth Bast and Chor Boogie, believe true freedom from addiction is possible with an ancient African root bark called Iboga. They believe this not only because of the growing scientific research and the countless anecdotes about iboga's potential available on the internet but because it is also their lived experience. Elizebeth and Chor join us on the show to talk about heroin addiction, how it impacted their intimate relationship, the redemption they found in Iboga, and what iboga taught them about what it takes to heal the pain at the root of addiction in oneself and the hearts of those we love. ***** See Full Show Notes and all related links: http://bit.ly/ATTMind60 Connect with me for a Skype call: http://www.jameswjesso.com/contact/jesso-private-skype-sessions/ Buy HEART MEDICINE: a true love story by Elizabeth Bast: http://www.ebast.net/heart-medicine.html ***** Support The Show.

Martin Ball, Ph.D. joins James W. Jesso on ATTMind Radio to talk about psychedelics, 5-MeO-DMT, unwinding the self, and bearing witness to the fractal, energetic nature of reality. Martin W. Ball, Ph.D., is a writer, independent publisher, energy worker, visionary artist, and musician currently living in Ashland Oregon. In the spring of 2009 Martin underwent a profound energetic opening and transformation - the product of intensive work with entheogenic medicines and a year of profound self-exploration. The result is Martin's articulation of what he calls the "Entheological Paradigm", a Grand Unified Theory of all of reality from God to the direct experience of each human being, which he characterizes as an articulation of his view on “radical nonduality.” ****** ATTMind podcast is fan funded: http://www.jameswjesso.com/support SUPPORT MONTHLY (Patreon): https://www.patreon.com/jameswjesso SUPPORT ONE-TIME (PayPal or BitCoin): http://www.jameswjesso.com/support ****** What are your thoughts?

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT KAMBO Kambo or 'frog medicine' is a traditional medicine harvested from the Phyllomedusa Biocolor, aka the giant monkey tree frog. This is a species of frog local to the Amazon jungle and surrounding regions. Its secretions, which are usually (though not always) harvested from the frog with respect, are placed onto recently opened burns on the skin (gates) and in turn, activate a wash of purgative and healing mechanisms in the human body. This video is a personal vlog entry following up one month since my 5th session with Kambo, done by my mate Pontinhos in London England on September 2, 2018. ----------------------------------------------------- FOR MORE INFO ABOUT KAMBO - Kambo: Cleaning The Spiritual Root Of Disease (podcast interview): https://www.jameswjesso.com/kambo-cleansing-spiritual-root-disease-w-tobias-thon-ep-51/ - the Essential Guide To Kambo (article): https://thethirdwave.co/psychedelics/kambo/ - Shamic Frog Ceremony [kambo documentary] (youtube video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EeaVBZI4ak0 --------------------------------------- WANT TO TRY KAMBO?
