This is such an important cause and I was honored to have Wyly on the podcast. You can check them out on Instagram @veteransofwar ( https://www.instagram.com/veteransofwar/ ) In this episode we talk about: [05:00] - How Ayahuasca is showing promise for healing brains with PTSD. [08:10] - How Wyly overcame a miscarrage in his family and was called to Ayahuasca for the 1st time in Peru. [15:00] - How PTSD functions on a fundamental level and how that interacts with Ayahuasca. [21:00] - Why it’s ridiculous that the U.S. has demonized psychedelics that other cultures have used for thousands of years. [27:00] - How making Psychedelics illegal has made them only safely accessible to those who are wealthy. [31:30] - Current major roadblocks in legalization efforts. [36:00] - The process Veterans of War uses for new members entering the program.
