Welcome to the Psychedelic Conversations Podcast!

Episode 140:

In this episode, we dive deep with psychotherapist and psychedelic guide Mira Funk, a queer non-binary practitioner specializing in modalities like 5-MeO-DMT, N,N-DMT (analog ayahuasca), and salvia divinorum. Mira shares her profound journey of healing from childhood trauma, chronic illness, and the societal pressures of growing up queer in a patriarchal environment. We discuss how her own path of suffering led her to Buddhism, psychotherapy, and ultimately, psychedelic facilitation.

Together, we explore the therapeutic potential of psychedelics, preparation and integration methods, and the importance of trauma-informed care. Mira also introduces us to the unique world of salvia divinorum, breaking down its healing properties and misconceptions. This heartfelt and insightful conversation sheds light on the delicate balance of healing and growth through psychedelics.
