Ketamine is a great gateway to opening up people’s minds to all of the other psychedelics. Its also a great place to start for therapy. Every single facilitator or shaman has different techniques and styles and that's okay If we don't have differences then we won't have styles to choose from.

We need some assistance to show us what were avoiding in life and I think that psychedelics help with that a lot.” - Shane Sensory Deprivation Shane says he’s interested in John Lilly's work from back in the day and his terminology of being able to meta-program your human brain Joe says John Lilly was a big part of isolation chambers which led to float tanks Psychedelic Icons Joe mentions Robert Anton Wilson, he was good friends with Timothy Leary He had great critiques, great books and worked with Leary on the 8 levels of consciousness Joe suggests listeners to read The Illuminatus! Trilogy: The Eye in the Pyramid, The Golden Apple, Leviathan “My interest is not in psychedelics themselves, but psychedelics as a means to access higher states of who we are, parts we have forgotten.” - Shane Psychedelics are just one way to tap into ourselves and discover our ultimate potential “We should all be questioning, everyday, changing our belief systems” - Shane “Belief is the death of intelligence” - Robert Anton Wilson Shane says a lot of people give Leary a bad rap, but Shane appreciates what he has done Joe mentions ‘smile squared’ - Space, migration, intelligence and life extension TFYQA - Think for yourself question authority “Turn on, Tune in, Drop out” - Timothy Leary Shane says that phrase sticks with him, it called to his rebel phase in youth to grow and do this work in his life The Psychedelic Culture Splitting - a rephrase of divide and conquer Joe says the psychedelic world is very cut throat "We should take care of each other a bit more in this space" - Joe Shane says, we need to lift each other up versus look for ways to step over each other Every single facilitator or shaman has different techniques and styles and that's okay If we don't have differences then we don't have styles to choose from “We can't become fundamentalists in our own practices, we need to value the differences culturally and from a world view. They are all valuable.” - Shane Links Website Mind Op Youtube  Podcast About Shane Shane earned his Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology from the University of Colorado in Boulder, CO, completed extensive coursework towards a Master of Arts Degree in Sport & Performance Psychology at the University of Denver, and earned his Master of Arts Degree in Sport & Exercise Psychology from Argosy University.

Download In this episode of Psychedelics Today, Joe interviews Shane LeMaster, Therapist and host of the new Podcast, Conversations with the Mind. In this discussion, we cover personal journeying, changing behavioral processes, Jiu Jitsu and where we are headed as a collective consciousness. 3 Key Points: Psychedelics can be a helpful tool for personal journey work. Each type of psychedelic works as its own tool. They are all useful in their own context and should not be compared to each other as better or worse. Shane has used psychedelic therapy to help rewire past imprinted constructs of his mind to learn new behaviors in his Jiu Jitsu practice and his daily life.

Navigating Psychedelics Show Notes Using Psychedelics for personal journey work How we can enhance growth using these substances Big journey work sessions bring large insights “Recently, I’ve been working on softening my hard edges” Construct – the scared child. Our childhood leaves imprints that effect our behavior as adults. Hyper-masculinity is a result of repressing past issues. Are there different messages after a journey in ketamine versus peyote? Substances produce a different feeling as if there is an “other” or “entity” that sends the messages where with breathwork it’s more of a self realization Drug chauvanism “my drug is better than your drug” “Is lsd worse than mushrooms for spiritual development? Or breathwork? We can’t say yes or no definitively.” -Joe Stan Grof – “why would you do breathwork if you have lsd?” “There is something special about the group work process in breathwork, that deeper sense of connection is hugely valuable.” -Joe Some substances are better when done alone in some circumstances, and substances used in a community setting as better for different circumstances. We have a choice in which tool “You can’t build a house with just a hammer. If lsd is a hammer and ketamine is a saw, you can’t say a hammer is better than a saw, they are both essential.” Ketamine in Fort Collins, CO Dr. Scott Shannon Shane Therapist, making great changes but small changes, looking to make a greater impact through social work, helping people to better themselves. Interest in mindfulness, positivity interventions, helping people see their power to fix their own issues The changing landscape of how we understand consciousness DMT vape pens Make it more convenient for the consumer Democratizes the experience, knocks down barriers to be able to have a profound experience Podcasts – creating conversation about a shift in consciousness Elon musk – our intelligence is heightened through proper use of the cell phone Stan Grof – technology of the sacred (ex. Breathwork) Tim Leary – “hedonic engineering” how to live a maximally more pleasurable life Positive psychology meets wearable technology – developing the steps to the most enjoyable life Tim Ferriss twitter feed - “Creation is a better means of self expression than possession, it is through creating not possessing that life is revealed.” “Be a creative force in the universe, it feels so good to create, and bring something to fruition, and share it with everybody, not to possess it.” -Shane Conversations with the mind – Shane’s podcast “One mind having a conversation with another mind. Two minds interacting, sharing knowledge, sharing distress, sharing solution, and adding the sum of the two parts coming together, and sharing it with the collective mind.” - Shane on the purpose behind his podcast Guests on the show How psychedelics help in jiu jitsu PhD credential people PTSD patients Advice from Stan Grof 30-60 days without alcohol is needed before using Breathwork for therapy when treating alcoholism Analogy – default brain behavior like sledding down a hill, we always choose the same route. With psychedelics, it helps us see a new route. You stand up, and for the first time, you look up and take a 360 degree turn and see so many new routes that you have the choice to take. Analogy used to reprocesses trauma, brings new options to think about the experience differently Microdosing helps bring out new patterns of behavior to learn new skills “In wrestling, the last place you want to be is on your back, that’s when you get pinned, that’s when you lose a match. In jiu jitsu, being in your back is a good place to be, because there’s a lot of options from there. So I had to unlearn the fear of being on my back. It’s all about retraining my neural pathways, retraining my thinking.” -Shane Jiu Jitsu It’s been said, earning a black belt is as much time and effort as earning a PhD The transferable skills of Jiu Jitsu can be used in therapy, breathwork and integrating psychedelic experiences. It’s all consciousness work.
