The Sabina Family and I
The mushrooms kick in hard in the middle of the night, lifting me out of my peaceful slumber and into a deep trance that I have no control over. It’s been five hours since I ingested the ‘niños santos’ during a private ‘velada’ ritual with the grandson of Maria Sabina in the homestead that her surviving family continues to maintain on an idyllic hilltop overlooking the Mazatec Pueblo of Huautla de Jimenez. After two hours of laying on a dirt floor enveloped in copal incense and fighting off boredom, I’d decided that the mushrooms were impotent and surrendered to travelers fatigue. I was incorrect in my assumption. I’m catapulted out of a deep sleep and into a phantasia of open-eye visuals. ‘Open-eye’ is not a typo; one of my eyes was paralyzed shut, and I had zero control over either. I couldn’t blink even if I tried. I lay pinned to the ground, paralyzed by the total loss of control over my right eye muscles. While ‘awake’ in this condition, my left eye was paralyzed shut and unable to open. My ‘self’ was trapped between two different worlds; right eye was fixed to the ceiling of the dark concrete room, left eye frozen shut and attentive to a dream where I was blacked out drunk and getting detained in an airport.
The Best Investment in Psychedelics
*Financial Advice from an Industry Insider* I’ve been around the inner sanctums of the psychedelic industry a for a little over two years now; Collaborations with the biggest companies in the space, back stage and green room access at all of the major conferences, private dinner parties with high net worth individuals funding the space, one on one interviews and text threads with their CEO’s, podcast appearances with the most reputable platforms in psychedelic media, etc. etc. In the last two weeks alone, I’ve privately interviewed the CEO’s and Founders of a handful of companies across the cannabis and psychedelics space that collectively exceed one billion dollars in value - and some of our conversations were deliberately rescinded to off the record status. In the past two years, I’ve been party to many such strictly confidential and off the record conversations involving sensitive corporate and government information that potentially makes me a valuable source of insight for people eager to invest in the burgeoning psychedelics space.
