Many of us experience ego death through psychedelics, but what happens when someone actually dies and returns to share their insights? Kyle Buller, co-founder of Psychedelics Today, had his life transformed at 16 after a traumatic snowboarding accident left him with a profound near-death experience (NDE). In this episode, Kyle shares his journey from navigating his NDE to exploring altered states of consciousness through psychedelics, transpersonal psychology, and Holotropic Breathwork.Kyle and Lana discuss how these extraordinary states can catalyze personal transformation, the critical importance of integration, and why taking time to slow down is essential for practitioners and explorers alike. In the meat of this conversation, they also explore the concept of spiritual emergence, a phenomenon where transformative experiences can lead to personal crises or growth, and how to navigate the fine line between awakening and overwhelm. Together, they examine the responsibility of psychedelic work and the need for cultural frameworks to support those undergoing these profound shifts.Topics Covered:Gaps in the psychedelic education spaceSupporting individuals through different phases of psychedelic workWhy bother having an expanded state of consciousnessHow to make the most out of challenging psychedelic experiencesPumping the breaks on transformational work and grounding into the everydayHow Kyles NDE at age 16 changes his perspective on life and deathSpiritual emergence and emergency: when mystical experiences create crisisCommon symptoms, challenges and experiences during a spiritual emergenceEgo Inflation as Spiritual EmergencyAdvocates of psychedelics need to be honest about the challengesKyle's deeply destabilizing experience with LSD (depersonalization & derealization)Sponsors:Natural Shilajit10% off with LANA10OFFKanna Wellness10% off with LANAShow Links:Vital Psychedelic Training: Learn more herePsychedelics Today Podcast: Visit hereBooks: Spiritual Emergency: When Personal Transformation Becomes a Crisis and The Stormy Search for the Self by Stanislav and Christina GrofSpiritual Emergence as Ego Inflation (Jules Evans article about Sowilo Retreats)

In this episode, we dive into the unspoken and messy realities of working with psychedelics. While many conversations focus on the profound healing and life-changing potential of these substances, this episode balances that narrative with some grounded real world truths. Lana explores how psychedelics offer us not a quick fix for our suffering, but rather a fulfilling lifelong journey of self-discovery and transformation that requires dedication and deep personal work. It's a path that demands preparation, integration, and a willingness to confront difficult emotions and uncomfortable truths about oneself.Throughout the episode, Lana emphasizes that psychedelics will often show you what you don't want to see, and that healing is not always pleasant or straightforward. From the importance of integration to the understanding that sometimes psychedelics can make things worse before they get better, this discussion serves as a reality check for those considering psychedelics as part of their healing journey. If you're ready to hear the unsexy, raw side of psychedelics, this episode offers insights from Lana's years of experience and from others on the path.Topics Covered:The need for some harsh and uncomfortable real world insights about psychedelicsPsychedelics are a doorway to a lifelong journey of self discovery and healing (not a quick fix)The role of prep and integration to ground in the workWhy this work is inherently spiritualWhy science will never be able to fully understand psychedelicsMeeting your (uncomfortable) growth edge with psychedelicsEngaging in psychedelic work is a very personal decisionSometimes psychedelics make things worseSponsors:Natural Shilajit | Head to naturalshilajit.com to get 10% off with LANA10OFFShow Links:1:1 Coaching with Lana - Apply NowEpisode 93: How to know if you're ready to go deeper with psychedelics (Spotify | Apple | YouTube) Want more Modern Psychedelics?Instagram | YouTube | Web | Facebook Inspired to transform your life from the inside out, and integrate higher consciousness in your day to day life?Explore 1:1 Coaching with Lana or Apply Now Please support the show: leave a review on Apple or a 5-star rating on Spotify if this episode sparked something within.

Six months ago, I had my most profound and impactful psychedelic experience yet. I smoked 5-MeO-DMT, left my body, somatically released stuck energy, and experienced the infinite love of the universe. This experience set me on an integration journey that has up-levelled my life in ways I couldn't have imagined. In this episode, I'm excited to share the details of my integration journey over these past six months. While there have been many ups and downs, the overall impact on my life and energy has been immensely positive.Throughout this episode, I'm highlighting that this very powerful medicine isn't just about the psychedelic experience itself but also about the integration process that follows. 5-MeO-DMT "set me straight" by opening me to unconditional love and regulating my nervous system. The energy in my heart is flowing freely into my work and has even empowered my relationship with money. This is just the tip of the iceberg, as I am sharing eight tangible ways my life has changed as a result of my 5-Meo-DMT experience at Enfold Institute. Enjoy!Topics Covered:Transformation with psychedelics isn't about just the medicine5-MeO-DMT “set me straight” and opened me to unconditional loveThe ups and downs during these first six months of integrationChanges to my nervous system and sensitivityThe energy in my heart is flowing into my workAn empowered relationship with spending and receiving moneyThe activation of my “super awareness”Changes to my health, wellness and lifestyleSneaky blocks I'm now aware of around romantic partnershipThe awareness of death is helping me make the most out of lifePrioritizing beauty and my passions in lifeMy deepened understanding of God/UniverseShow Links:Apply for 1:1 Coaching with LanaEarth Runners - LANA for 10% offEnfold InstituteStill In It: 5-MeO-DMT Stories podcast (Spotify | Apple | YouTube)5-MeO-DMT Episode Series:Episode 79: I Smoked 5-MeO-DMT at Enfold (Spotify | Apple | YouTube)Episode 84: 5-MeO-DMT Deep Dive w/ Steve Rio from Enfold (Spotify | Apple | YouTube)Episode 8: Introduction to 5-MeO-DMT w/ Steve Rio (Spotify | Apple)Episode 94: When Psychedelics Make Things Worse w/ Jesse West from Enfold (Spotify | Apple | YouTube)Other Episodes Mentioned:Episode 95: The “Refinement” Stage of Psychedelic Integration (Spotify | Apple | YouTube)Episode 91: How to Create Lasting Lifestyle Change During Integration (Spotify | Apple | YouTube)Episode 87: My Psychedelic Healing Journey & Origin Story (Spotify | Apple | YouTube)Episode 81: My Practical Tips for Psychedelic Integration (Spotify | Apple | YouTube) Want more Modern Psychedelics?Instagram | YouTube | Web | Facebook Inspired to transform your life from the inside out, and integrate higher consciousness in your day to day life?Explore 1:1 Coaching with Lana or Apply Now Please support the show: leave a review on Apple or a 5-star rating on Spotify if this episode sparked something within.

What in the world is a psychedelics podcast doing talking about “personal style” and fashion?! This has to be the first. But discovering your personal style is identity work that requires vulnerability. It's a deeply meaningful journey of self discovery. If you don't see the connection now, then you will by the end of this podcast.In this episode, I am introducing a concept around the different stages of psychedelic integration: There is the “heavy lifting” stage where we're doing deep work to significantly improve our lives, followed by the “refinement” stage which is a lighter process of fine tuning.For me, this refinement process is showing up in my journey to discover my personal style. The misalignment between my identity and my wardrobe has come up a few times during psychedelic journeys, and I am finally addressing it so that the outside is a true reflection of my inside. I also make the connection between the responsibility to find your personal style, living a values-based life, and sustainable consumption.Topics Covered:The “heavy lifting” vs “refinement” stages of psychedelic integrationThe connection between life satisfaction and values-alignmentHow refinement is showing up for me through personal styleHow personal style came up during my psychedelic experiencesWhy I stopped caring about fashion during my healing chapterWhy I started caring about fashion again after my healing chapterFast fashion overconsumption as a result of not knowing my personal styleMy core values that are aligned with knowing my personal styleMy journey to discover my personal style so farConsumption habits and making wise purchase decisionsShow Links:1:1 Coaching with LanaEarth Runners - 10% off with LANAEpisode 45: My Iboga Journey (Spotify | Apple | YouTube)Episode 60: My Shipibo Ayahuasca Journey (Spotify | Apple | YouTube)Episode 79: My 5-MeO-DMT Journey (Spotify | Apple | YouTube)Wear It Well by Allison Bornstien [book]Sustain This!

Psychedelics don't always make things better. Jesse's psychedelic ego death experience cracked Jesse open to feel deeply, which was a new experience for her. After the love and bliss from the experience faded, she was left to process a lifetime worth of repressed pain. Jesse went through challenges such as ego whiplash, suicidal ideation, social isolation, and depression for months after her psychedelic experience. But it's not all bad: she was able to harness this challenging time as a point of transformation. In this episode, she is sharing the depth of her experience with us, and how she managed to come out on the other side.Topics Covered:Jesse's mindset and intentions before her challenging 5-MeO-DMT experienceThe core “unlovable” wound Jesse healed during her experienceSlipping into a depression and panic during integrationOpening the floodgates and processing a lifetime of repressed painCoping when coping mechanisms no longer worksEgo whiplash after an ego deathHolding space for yourself during a challenging integration periodEnlisting support + resources and tools to helpOpen-heartedness on the other sideAddressing habits and lifestyle changes during challenging integrationEncouragement to keep going if you're having a challenging integration periodShow Links:1:1 Coaching with LanaApply nowEnfold Institute Want more Modern Psychedelics?Instagram | YouTube | Web | Facebook Inspired to transform your life from the inside out, and integrate higher consciousness in your day to day life?Explore 1:1 Coaching with Lana or Apply Now This episode was produced in collaboration with FWI Media.

The women of the psychedelic underground stand in stark contrast to psychedelic therapists, clinicians and researchers. In some ways, they hold much more wisdom and knowledge about working with these medicines. It's an honor to have Dr. Rachel Harris back on the podcast to discuss this. Since we last spoke, she has released a new book called Swimming in the Sacred: Lessons from the Psychedelic Underground.This is one of the most important books written about psychedelics, as it shines a light on the wisdom and work done by elder women psychedelic guides. Dr. Rachel Harris has been in private practice for 40 years as a psychologist. Later in her career, she began exploring psychedelics for healing and transformation. In this conversation, we dissect what exactly transformation is, and the qualities that these underground elder guides have, making them so effective at facilitating transformation (which is very different from healing).Listen in for a chance to win a copy of Swimming in the Sacred!Topics Covered:The difference between a transformation and the therapeutic processSigns of transformation that psychedelic guides look forHow underground guides transition from their healing journey to guidingDifferences between underground guides and psychedelic therapistsHow underground guides view integrationPsychedelics and plant medicine as a way of lifeNavigating the “subtle realms” and expanded states of consciousnessThe quality of fearlessness in psychedelics guidesBeing aware of ego inflation as a psychedelic guideShow Links:Earth Runners - 10% off with LANA1:1 Coaching with LanaSwimming in the Sacred [book]Instagram Giveawayswimminginthesacred.comvisionarycongress.org Want more Modern Psychedelics?Instagram | YouTube | Web | Facebook Inspired to transform your life from the inside out, and integrate higher consciousness in your day to day life?Explore 1:1 Coaching with Lana or Apply Now This episode was produced in collaboration with FWI Media.

This episode is so personal and vulnerable that I am almost uncomfortable sharing it publicly. I share my entire life story and my healing journey out of the darkness. I take listeners through the formation of my core wounds and self-destructive narratives, which ultimately left me depressed, anxious, lost, and disempowered to move my life forward in a positive direction.But that's only half of the story. The second half is the documentation of my healing journey with therapy, medicine work and self-discovery. By sharing these details, I am shining a light of the gift of the struggle. Most of my life has been an uphill battle, but in recent years I have reached a place of peace, happiness and fulfillment. And most of all, gratitude for it ALL!Please consume this episode with nothing but love, as the specifics shared are very vulnerable and done with the aim of inspiring and giving hope to others who are also struggling in life. One thing is for sure: It's possible to get to the other side, and life can be better than you ever thought possible.Topics Covered:Being born into a war and fleeing the countryThe refugee experience as a young girlMy first portal into self awareness and reflectionMy first taste of rejection and comparison energyEarly experiences using alcohol & drugs to self-medicateHow cystic acne and my weight made my self-confidence plummetThe development of my core wounding & self-destructive narrativesStruggles with finding my career path and purposeMy first ever experience with MDMA & how I changedGrad school: my dark night of the soul + mental health hellThe moment everything crashed and the misalignment became clearBeing a doormat in romantic relationshipsRecovering from codependent patterns & loss of loveReplacing psychotherapy with AyahuascaHow Microdosing and coaching started moving me forwardShow Links:PAX Cannabis Vaporizers - LANA to save 15%1:1 Coaching with Lana Want more Modern Psychedelics?Instagram | YouTube | Web | Facebook Inspired to transform your life from the inside out, and integrate higher consciousness in your day to day life?Explore 1:1 Coaching with Lana or Apply Now This episode was produced in collaboration with FWI Media.

But for the most part, I've developed a practice and relationship with cannabis that has been supportive to my life. In this episode, I reflect on my relationship with the plant, how it's changed, and the role it played in my overall healing journey.While getting high is fun and has its place, cannabis really taught me to enjoy my time alone and explore my inner landscape. It's also been instrumental as a creative and expressive tool while producing this podcast. I also present the advantages and potential pitfalls of cannabis, and finding a personal balance with usage. The episode further touches on my change in cannabis consumption patterns over time, my favorite consumption method, and cannabis usage in a social setting.Topics Covered:The role of cannabis during my healing journeyLearning to be alone & love myselfMy personal relationship with cannabisCannabis as a tool for psychedelic integrationCannabis for creativity and podcast productionSocial consumption of cannabisCannabis instead of alcoholShow Links:PAX Cannabis Vaporizers - LANA to save 15%1:1 Coaching with Lana Want more Modern Psychedelics?Instagram | YouTube | Web | Facebook Inspired to transform your life from the inside out, and integrate higher consciousness in your day to day life?Explore 1:1 Coaching with Lana or Apply Now This episode was produced in collaboration with FWI Media.

This conversation covers details about 5-MeO-DMT that have not yet been explored seriously in the public sphere. We go far beyond the basics of this medicine as Steve Rio and I explore the nuances and complexities of the non-dual experience and integration process that follows. We also get into the somatic and nervous system benefits of this medicine.Steve Rio's understanding of this medicine has matured and deepened since we last dropped in three years ago (for episode 8; a great episode to learn the basics around 5-MeO-DMT). Steve is the co-founder of Enfold Institute, a place to experience a safe and sacred 5-MeO-DMT ceremony. He is a true embodiment of this medicine: humble, direct, pure and speaks from the heart.We recorded this conversation in late January, two months into my integration process at a time when I was really awakening to how powerful this medicine is. I share a few stories of some intense reactivations post-journey, and what I've been learning and integrating.Enjoy this raw and clear conversation — just like 5-MeO-DMT.Topics Covered:How 5-MeO-DMT differs from other psychedelicsHow to make sense of a non-dual experience in a dual worldTension while integrating an awakening experienceDissecting the non-dual experienceEnergetic release and nervous system resetThe rebirth experience during 5-MeO-DMTHow 5-MeO-DMT makes one more sensitive & the gift of sensitivityOpening up to and allowing all of life's experiencesHow to know if you're ready for 5-MeO-DMTMaintaining accountability and ethics as a 5-MeO-DMT facilitatorThe benefits of having visual documentation from a 5-MeO-DMT ceremonyReactivations after a 5-MeO-DMT experience, even months afterIncreased sensitivity to other substances after 5-MeO-DMTThe responsibility that come with awakening to non-dualityShow Links:Kanna Extract Co - 10% off with LANA at checkout1:1 Coaching with LanaEnfold InstituteEpisode 8 with Steve Rio (Apple | Spotify) Want more Modern Psychedelics?Instagram | YouTube | Web | Facebook Inspired to transform your life from the inside out, and integrate higher consciousness in your day to day life?Explore 1:1 Coaching with Lana or Apply Now This episode was produced in collaboration with FWI Media.

Their discussion starts with their experience of the program, and how connecting with each other made them realize their shared experiences and common values. They go on to discuss the importance of acknowledging trauma and taking steps towards recovery, pointing out its non-linear nature. Both discuss their personal trauma experiences and how they have each dealt with it. They talk about various aspects of healing, including the need for community, the effects of trauma on a person's perception of themselves, as well as societal expectations of perfection. Meridyth shares her powerful experience of healing through a cold-water plunge, an experience she symbolises as a death and rebirth of a new version of herself.
