Ep. 79 – JONATHAN DE POTTER – Plant Medicine (Psychedelics) for Healing the Body, Soul & the World

In the 1960s a huge propaganda campaign ensued, with the intention of misleading people into the belief that psychedelics are dangerous.   But why were people using them in the first place?    Are they really dangerous?   Going deeper, why are they here on Earth and what is their purpose?   Shamans, sages and everyday people have been reporting access to higher levels of consciousness and deeper states of awareness, and many PTSD sufferers have reported complete trauma healing through the use of plant medicine in the right environment, with the right support, and with the right intention.   In the last decade plant medicine has made a mighty resurgence and we’re seeing why, and just what the correct use of plant medicine can do for humanity.   Jonathan De Potter is the founder and CEO of Behold Retreats, a bespoke wellness service that facilitates journeys of self-discovery and transformation, supported by the scientifically proven benefits of plant medicine therapy and in this episode we speak about just what plant medicine can do for the consciousness of humanity, and what he is trying to do within his mission.   Important Links: Behold Retreats  Behold Retreats Ayahuasca Retreat in Costa Rica:  Behold Retreats 5-MeO-DMT Retreat in Tulum, Mexico:  Behold Retreats 5-MeO-DMT Retreat in Tepoztlán, Mexico:  Behold Retreats Psilocybin Retreat in Netherlands:   ***   This season of Reconditioned is kindly sponsored by Block Blue Light UK, the UK’s leading company for anti-blue light products, to fix sleep issues, eliminate eye strain and improve health.

Om Podcasten

Reconditioned was created by host Lauren Vaknine, as a hub for all things wellness and self-development, not just a niche collection of topics within that, so that people can integrate the healing of the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of self, which, as Lauren found in her own journey, really is the only way to achieve complete, whole-person healing. After being diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis aged 2, Lauren was wheelchair-bound by 18. After more than a decade immersed in intensive self-study, learning everything there was to learn about the human body and mind, Lauren finally reconditioned herself back to wellness and is now a fully able-bodied business woman, leading holistic life coach, speaker, writer, podcast host and mum of 2, with a passion for helping others achieve the same levels of transformation in their own lives. Tune into Reconditioned to find what you’re seeking in community, support, and answers to all your burning wellbeing questions, from which type of magnesium you need to how to manage an energetic death, healing trauma, conscious parenting, inner child healing, spirituality and beyond!
