Summary

There are so many people quietly suffering through mental health challenges these days. The world is in chaos and nothing seems to make sense. Having the drive, focus, and discipline you need to get after your goals can feel impossible when you're battling depression, anxiety, PTSD, or mood disorders.

Dr. Dan Engle’s background is in integrative psychiatry, peak performance medicine and psychedelic research. His latest book, A Dose of Hope, he hopes to spread greater awareness and information about the value of MDMA which has been highly effective in treating PTSD.

You or someone you care about is quite possibly suffering from PTSD or other mental health problems that more and more research is showing natural plant medicines to be effective in treating.

This conversation is a masterclass on natural plant medicines that treat anxiety, depression and more.

QUOTES:

“I think the experiential side drives the neurochemical side. It’s like the software experience drives the hardware experience.”

“Rescuing somebody from their suffering may just be robbing them from their greatest teacher.”

“Suffering isn’t the only way of learning, slowing down, and getting in touch with who we are.”

“If I’m only going for the truth, I’m trying to bypass the feeling, then I may not be moving it through to a process of resolution.”

“It’s recognizing the power of these medicines, who’s safe and ready to work with them, how do you prepare them really well to get ready for that experience, how do you try to optimize the efficacy of that experience itself…”

0:00.0	What up everybody. I'm so excited for this episode because today we're joined by the brilliant Dr. Dan Engel,
0:05.5	founder of Full Spectrum Medicine, a psychedelic integration and educational platform.
0:11.0	Dan's holistic concussion recovery program is just the tip of an iceberg of really interesting insights.
0:16.5	He's dedicated his life to helping people achieve peak performance and facilitate self-healing through the power of psychedelic therapies.
0:24.1	In this episode, we explore how to find the gift in suffering, what can be revealed through psychedelics, and the importance of community in the healing process.
0:33.7	Plus, Dan shares his insights on how plant medicines can be used to treat addiction, PTSD, and anxiety.
0:40.2	Do not miss out on this extremely interesting conversation.
0:43.8	And if you guys like this episode, be sure to follow the podcast, share this with somebody that you think might get value out of this.
0:49.7	It's the best way to help support other people on their journey to becoming legendary. All right,
0:55.3	everybody, I'm Tom Bill You and welcome to Impact Theory. Eboga is a fascinating medicine because
1:01.0	you can have people addicted to heroin decades long, go through one treatment. You lived in an asherom for two years, the jungle for a year.
1:15.3	You've done a lot of drugs.
1:17.4	Now I want to know what did you learn from all of that that you would bring back if you had a chance of your sister, unfortunately, committed suicide.
1:25.0	If you could take what you learned in that time, what would you
1:27.9	tell her to try to save her? Good question. I think it's the title of the book, A Dose of
1:39.5	Hope. You know, there's always hope. There's always opportunity for growth, relief, reconnection.
1:47.7	So what given the way that, so talking about psychedelics, the way that you come out that work,
1:54.0	seems to be that people get, well, let me ask, are they coming from, they're stuck in a
1:59.8	neurochemical pattern or are they stuck in a frame of reference problem where it's not even neurochemical. It's just the way that they think about things.
2:07.3	I think it's both. I think the experiential side drives the neurochemical side. It's like the software experience, drives the hardware experience.
2:19.7	And suffering is really individual, but it's also ubiquitous.
2:23.0	It's kind of our dance with life, so to speak.
