A bridge between the Western and Indigenous ways— The curandera, plant medicine, and spirit

Craig sits down with Ana, a Mexican medicine woman, or curandera. Ana shares a unique perspective and an earned wisdom that is particularly relevant today as we enter a veritable renaissance of plant medicines and psychedelics, while also trying to avoid the rampant mistakes and misuses of the past.

Ana works with various medicines, including one that was mentioned in the “The Dark Side of Psychedelics” episode—  that would be Bufo, also known as  5-MeO, or 5-methoxy-DMT.  In contrast with that episode, Ana describes much more mindful and careful use of this powerful compound.
