In today's trippy installment, I had the pleasure of sitting down with the man who calls himself the Laughing Dragon. He has turned the exploration of consciousness into a life path with the goal of uniting people through unconditional love. His disciplined lifestyle has the goal of holding the highest state of unconditional love possible.

Prepare to be taken on a journey as Laughing Dragon shares his lessons from exploring the multiverse, sitting in ceremony with ayahuasca, and the transformative experiences available to expand our consciousness when partnering with plant medicine and psychedelics.

The episode begins with Laughing Dragon opening up about his personal struggles early in life, including a challenging upbringing and overcoming insomnia and PTSD with the help of plant medicine and psychedelics. We dive deep into Laughing Dragon's captivating story, exploring how he stumbled upon the world of amanita muscaria mushrooms and what led him to embrace a path of shamanism.

From there, we unravel the mysterious goals of the amanita muscaria experience and uncover the active ingredients responsible for its unique effects. Oh, and get ready for some mind-boggling folklore origins that connect Santa Claus himself to these magical mushrooms. Laughing Dragon also warns of the risks involved in microdosing amanita and imparts valuable lessons he's learned about consciousness from his daily ayahuasca use.

If you're curious about foraging amanita muscaria in the United States or seeking microdosing recommendations, we've got you covered. And stay tuned to discover the intriguing story behind how Laughing Dragon earned his name. If you’re curious about who psychedelics could help, how to use it, and ways to open a portal to other timelines, you’re really going to dig this conversation. It's a wild ride, my friends. Let's dive in!
