39 - The Other Side of High
In this week's episode Ash & Jess breakdown trends around frequent marijuana and psychedelic use. Is "California Sober" the new answer to partying without consequences or is it just another way of spiritually bypassing your problems? Ashley shares her perspective from living in Costa Rica for the past 5 years, the second leading destination for psychedelic retreats and ceremonies. While there is no doubt you might have heard stories where people have "cured" anything from PTSD to severe addiction with an ayahuasca ceremony; there is also a dark underbelly to this constant quest for enlightenment. Is there really a magic pill in the form of purging your traumas or is it wrecking your mineral status and nervous system? Come along with us as we explore this rising trend and quest for inner peace.*Ashley references a quote from social media stating "80% of the spiritual community is on full time drugs and confusing it for being awakened..." which was from @mami.onami While Ash and Jess might not agree with every opinion expressed on this page, Ashley did feel this quote was spot on from her experience in some of these communities.Visit us on Instagram @wellnessrealitycheckGo to BodyBio.com and use our one-time code 'WRC' for 20% offSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
