Heal at your own pace. We must release trauma not only cognitively but romantically - but we cannot rush into embodiment.

Our thoughts are incredibly powerful. The way we view our body, its potential, and its ability to heal directly influences its ability to restore balance. Trust your body’s wisdom, and allow yourself to believe in its natural ability to heal.

From an article I wrote - “The endocannabinoid system, or ECS, was a relatively recent discovery: in 1998, scientists at the St. Louis University Medical School determined that a rat’s brain has receptor sites — specialized protein molecules that are embedded in cell membranes — that are activated by THC. These cannabinoid receptors were dubbed “CB1.” CB1 receptors are located in the brain, but also in the central nervous system, and to a lesser degree, the gut, the skin, and other various internal organs.

All animals with a spinal cord have CB1 receptors. Importantly, though the endocannabinoid system was first understood through the study of cannabis, it predates the plant by hundreds of millions of years; the ECS, we have learned, is affected by both endogenous and exogenous compounds, by lifestyle and stressors, and by genetics.”

No, it’s not only affected by cannabis use (or lack thereof)

- "... as the systems of late-stage capitalism are breaking down, and as we see how corporations often flaunt their power over the law, people are increasingly recognizing that laws don’t always protect us and don’t always reflect true morality.

Big pharma has been held culpable in its role in the op**te crisis, and big pharma is increasingly being held up to scrutiny as many antidepressants are shown to be addictive themselves. As big pharma has a history of emphasizing the benefits while downplaying the harms of their products, consumers increasingly are looking for other solutions....

As the legal and cultural landscape continues to change to recognize the growing value of and demand for these earth medicines — what I call natural allies — regulators will continue to face growing pressure to legalize, regulate, and tax such substances and the economies they capture. And big pharma will continue to seek to capitalize on these growing trends as well. As a consumer, it’s never been more important to do your own research (DYOR), regardless of where your medicine is coming from and who you choose to work with."

Amid a larger national and even global movement of decriminalization and legalization, the cultural shift precedes laws.

Functional mushrooms and adaptogens can help us heal and maintain wellness. The quality of the supplement matters. Supplements can only do so much, though - a holistic approach to wellness is key!

From coffee-alternatives to tinctures and gummies, medicinal mushrooms show promise in existing research–but that’s not the full story.

“It has helped with a 17 year battle with alcoholism and with the loss of both of my dogs. It completely changed my life and helped me come to terms with mistakes I’ve made in the past, especially during my time when my drinking was heaviest after I left the military”
