| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Spirit Jim. Today's episode comes from one of the most sacred places on the planet, |
| 0:06.9 | deep in the Amazon rainforest of Peru, where Paul's guest has spent years training as a shaman |
| 0:13.5 | and learning what the plants have been trying to teach us all along. Maestro Hamilton Suther |
| 0:19.5 | isn't your typical spiritual teacher. This is someone who's |
| 0:23.2 | walked through tremendous trauma, physical pain, nerve damage, and came out the other side not just |

| 1:21.0 | You'll also hear why Hamilton believes that ceremonies should be joyful, not just intense. |
| 1:26.7 | Why he cracks jokes in the middle of ayahuasca journeys and gets better results. |
