054 | A Critique of Healing Culture, Psychedelic Narcissism & Hyper-Individuality w/ Adam Aronovich
Manage episode 359051689 series 3461142
I wish I had the information in this podcast years ago when I was stuck in the never-ending healing journey. This conversation is a call move away from hyper-individualism and instead turn “one eye inwards, and one eye outward.”
Adam spent more than four years conducting research and extensive fieldwork in the Peruvian Amazon, where he also facilitated Ayahuasca workshops in the context of shamanic and medical tourism. He is the creator of Healing from Healing, a social media platform that casts a critical, skeptical and humorous gaze at Healing Culture.
Adam has insights and reflections based on his years of experience overseeing participants of ayahuasca ceremonies. He challenges the commonly heard (harmful) narratives, sense-making and spiritual orientations of medicine guides.
This episode will give you a fresh perspective of the healing journey. Once we get over how triggering it is to call out our own “psychedelic narcissism,” we can see an alternative path; one that is oriented towards not just the individual, but the social, cultural and environmental systems that need healing just as much as individuals do.
Topics covered:
- Psychedelic Narcissism: what is it & how to spot it
- The dangers in sense-making psychedelic experiences as absolute Truth
- The dangers of going into psychedelic experiences with the narrative of healing childhood trauma
- How the orientation of medicine providers primes certain experiences
- Creating narrative-neutral medicine spaces
- Hyper-individualism and con-spirituality within plant medicine culture
- The link between individual health and cultural, social and environmental health
- Transitioning into service from the “never-ending healing journey”
- How control and fear of uncertainty perpetrate psychedelic narcissism
