From Chiropractor to Shaman: Dr. Shelly Persad's Transformation with Cannabis

Susan Burns interviews Dr. Shelly Persad, a chiropractor, woman shaman, and author of "Somatophobia." Dr. Shelly shares her unique journey of self-healing and transformation with the help of cannabis, leading her to embrace her higher self and unlock her inner healer.

Dr. Shelly discusses her initial burnout as a chiropractor and her quest to find deeper healing solutions for her patients and herself. Through experiences with plant medicines like Bufo (5-MeO DMT) and cannabis, she undergoes a profound rebirth and redefines her relationship with healing and spirituality.

The conversation delves into Dr. Shelly's transition to becoming a shaman, guided by the medicines and her inner calling. She emphasizes the importance of self-healing and empowerment, encouraging individuals to tap into their own healing abilities and connect with their higher selves.

The episode also explores the concept of somatophobia, the fear of the body and its magnificence, as discussed in Dr. Shelly's book. She details the six portals of healing and self-discovery outlined in her book, offering a roadmap for readers to embark on their own sacred cannabis journey to higher consciousness and self-healing.

Listeners are invited to explore Dr. Shelly's work further through her websites, where she offers resources for connecting with the higher self through sacred cannabis ceremonies and ascension practices. The episode concludes with Dr. Shelly sharing her unique brand of bodaciousness, centered around rebirthing trauma into higher self and accessing multidimensional pleasure through cannabis-guided healing.
