Ayahuasca integration - 1 year later

It's been one year since my ayahuasca ceremony. I look back on it one year later to summarize how it helped me, and how my life has changed since.

One thing I forgot to mention in the video is that it really helped me to clear out deep grief that I had carried for a really long time. And that is something that has stayed even after, a feeling of a weight that is gone.

The visuals filmed in the beginning is from inside a huge artwork I visited at a festival here in Sweden. It's called "Dodecalis Luminarum" and was made by brittish Architects of Air with head artist Alan Parkinson. I thought it resembled the feeling of ayahuasca in some ways. More about it here:

/// ABOUT //

There is a mental health crisis going on in the world. A lot of people are faced with trauma and the effects of living in a disconnected and stressful society. In some shamanic cultures it's believed that some psychotic or manic states can be "the birth of a healer". I have walked the shamanic path for several years now and come through on the other side as a "wounded healer". I now want to help bridge the gap between the spiritual and crazy, between the madman and the mystic. (Tip: Watch the movie crazywise for more info on this topic).
My professional background is in journalism, creative writing & marketing. I also worked as a peer support in psychiatry.
