In this episode I interview Leslie Draffin, a somatic therapist and psychedelic mentor . We discuss exploring the transformative potential of micro-dosing psychedelics, particularly psilocybin.
Leslie shares her personal journey of healing from trauma and disconnection, emphasizing the importance of integrating body awareness and somatic practices in the healing process.
Our conversation delves into the differences between macro and micro-dosing, the role of psychedelics in rewiring the brain, and the significance of finding a supportive guide in the healing journey.
Leslie encourages listeners to embrace their own healing paths and trust the process of self-discovery.
