This One Time On Psychedelics
Welcome, fellow explorers of the infinite.
If you’re here, it means you’re ready to step beyond the ordinary and into the great unfolding mystery of existence itself. Because psychedelics? They’re not just substances—they’re a doorway to a new way of seeing reality, a lens that reveals the hidden layers of reality we walk through every day. And that’s exactly what we explore here.
I’m Ryan Sprague, and This One Time On Psychedelics isn’t just about trippy stories and wild journeys (though trust me, we have plenty of those). It’s about the conversations that hold the power to awaken us, to shift our consciousness, and to remind us that there is far more to this reality than meets the eye.
These are the conversations that expand hearts, challenge perspectives, and guide us back to the wisdom that has always been within us. Whether through plant medicines, altered states, or the everyday magic woven into life itself, this is a space where we step beyond the known and into the infinite.
The psychedelic renaissance is here. The future is unwritten. And you, my friend, are a part of it.
So buy the ticket. Take the ride. And let’s see how deep this trip goes.
This One Time On Psychedelics
Ep. 173: Opening Up New Doorways To More Purpose Through Ayahuasca (feat. Sam Believ)
When I entered the realm of psychedelic medicines, no medicine was more popular & talked about more than that of Ayahuasca. I have been fascinated with this medicine for years in hearing so many stories & featuring so many people on the show that have had experiences with it & being as how I have yet to experience this medicine myself, you could say that my curiosity has been peaked for quite some time on it. Todays guest on the show is a man who’s life has not only benefitted greatly from experiencing this medicine, but has also opened up deeper levels of purpose in his calling to create a center that could allow more people to experience what he experienced in sitting with this medicine. Fast forward to today & he has taken action on that goal in creating “Lawayra”, which is an Ayahuasca center located in Columbia where they practice both traditional Ayahuasca ceremonies & the Columbian indigenous way of brewing this medicine, often referred to as “Yage” & in this episode, we dive into his journey, what he’s learned in running an Ayahuasca center, the differences between Ayahuasca & Yage & much, much more.
