Book Description
Plant Medicine Mystery School Volume I: The Superhero Healing Powers of Psychotropic Plants takes a kaleidoscopic deep dive into the omnipotent, mysterious, and gloriously gorgeous world of psychotropic plant medicines. Penned by a trained Ayahuasca shaman, this book delves into the superpowers of plants, including Magic Mushrooms, Cannabis, Huachuma, Ayahuasca, Iboga, and many more. The plants themselves are the stars, described in animated detail-not as objects, but as the sentient, wisdom-filled, playful beings that they are. There's also ample information about how healing really happens, the way plant consciousness merges with human consciousness, the ancient art of protection and spiritual safety, and all the life-changing tools and insights that empower psychonauts and pilgrims to make the most of every ceremony and psychedelic journey. If you are called to work with Plant Medicines in any fashion, your next dance into any psychedelic portal will be immeasurably enhanced and improved by the wisdom and real-world experience shared in this book. If you are going to travel to an exotic land it is best to go with a trusted guide. If you want to journey to the sublime psychedelic universe that Ayahuasca and other psychotropic plants open up to us, it is wise to travel with someone who really knows the way. This wonderful book clearly shows that Tina Kat Courtney is such a guide. Authentic, curious and deeply awake. Enjoy the trip! Tim Freke, author of Soul Story: Evolution and The Purpose of Life Just as corporations arrive to colonize psychedelics and their healing potentials, this book reminds us all to carry humility into the strange and expansive worlds opened up in relationship to sacred plants. Embracing the wisdom carried by indigenous lineages, this book is driven to address the serial crises unfolding across the planet with a sense of fierce love, drawing on insights gained through personal trials and transformations. It presents a vision of deep hope in our capacity to learn to care for ourselves and for one another in alliance with larger scale other-than-human forces.

Book Description
An insider’s account of the journey to become an ayahuasquero, a shaman who heals with the visionary vine ayahuasca • Details the author’s training and life as a curandero using ayahuasca medicine, San Pedro cactus, tobacco purges, psychedelic mushrooms, and other visionary plants • Offers first-hand accounts of miraculous healing where ayahuasca revealed the cause of the illness, including how the author healed his mother from liver cancer • Shows how “ayahuasca tourism” symbolizes the Western world’s reawakening need to connect with the universal life force For more than 20 years American-born Alan Shoemaker has apprenticed and worked with shamans in Ecuador and Peru, learning the traditional methods of ayahuasca preparation, the ceremonial rituals for its use, and how to commune with the healing spirit of this sacred plant as well as the spirit of the San Pedro cactus and other sacred plant allies. Now a recognized and practicing ayahuasquero, or ayahuasca shaman, in Peru, he offers an insider’s account of the ayahuasca tradition and of its use for expanding consciousness and achieving healing through access to other dimensions of being. Shoemaker details his training and his own curandero practice using ayahuasca medicine, tobacco purges, psychedelic mushrooms, and other visionary plants. He discusses the different traditions of his two foremost teachers and mentors, Don Juan in the Peruvian Amazon, an ayahuasquero, and Valentin in Ecuador, a San Pedro shaman. He reveals the indispensable role played by icaros, the healing songs of the plant shaman, and offers firsthand accounts of miraculous healing resulting from ayahuasca’s ability to reveal the cause of an illness, including how he healed his mother from liver cancer. The author also addresses the rising popularity of Northerners traveling to the Amazon to seek healing and mind expansion through ayahuasca and shows how this fascination is triggered by humanity’s reawakening need to connect to the universal life force.

Book Description
A stream of consciousness book based on a day by day diary of a spontaneous 8 month-long journey to the Peruvian Amazon undertaken by a somewhat naive young westerner in order to study shamanism, followed by a three month journey through Mexico. Entirely based on actual diary entries, it's a vivid and unpredictable trip. Read this before drinking ayahuasca to avoid making the same mistakes.

Book Description
What happens when we die? How are some people able to see or communicate with spiritual worlds beyond our own? Can they offer answers to some of our most burning questions about life and death? Sarah Bullen, who has had a life-altering near-death experience herself, explores these mysteries as she gathers riveting stories of people from South Africa and beyond – people who have crossed to the 'other side' or those who can contact it. This book offers original interviews with a fascinating collection of teachers with special abilities, individuals who have gone through near-death experiences and those who can communicate across worlds using mediumship, gifts, trance and plants. Meet and learn from a man who woke up on a stretcher on the way to the morgue, a spiritual teacher who survived two near-death experiences on an operating table, a psychic rabbi, an influencer who communicates with the departed, a former corporate executive-turned-sangoma who runs a traditional clinic, and shamans and neo-shamans from across the continent. With her keen observation skills and insights gleaned from her own experience, Bullen offers a fresh way of looking at the world.

Book Description
• Provides a blueprint for responsible and effective use of psychedelics and plant medicines to transform pain and trauma into profound connections with ourselves, nature, and the spirit world • Shares exercises to help readers plant the seeds of transformation in their own consciousness, navigate altered states of consciousness and ego death, work with the shadow, and integrate fragmented parts of the self • Explores ancestral teachings on the interconnectedness of all life, drawing on the author’s studies with indigenous elders, including Bwiti initiations with iboga Presenting a deep dive into the world of psychedelic initiation and ancestral wisdom, Tricia Eastman demonstrates the power of plant medicine and psychedelic journeys for cultivating new beliefs, healing trauma, and accessing latent gifts within us—an inner alchemical process she calls “seeding consciousness.” Drawing on her studies with Indigenous elders, including two decades of iboga initiations with the Bwiti of Gabon, Africa, and training with the Kogi Kággaba of Columbia, Eastman provides a blueprint for responsible and effective use of entheogens to transform pain and trauma into profound connections with ourselves, nature, and the spirit world. She explores ancient teachings on the interconnectedness of all life and the forces of nature and shows how colonization and modern culture have disconnected us from our spiritual foundations. She shares exercises to help readers seed their own consciousness, navigate altered states of consciousness and ego death, work with the shadow, and integrate fragmented parts of the self. She also examines how to respectfully engage with these potent transformative plants, substances, and ancient traditions, thereby honoring the wisdom keepers who have safeguarded these traditions across the millennia. Revealing how to prepare the fertile soil of the mind for mystical experience, this book presents a psychedelic path to awakening that simultaneously facilitates personal transformation and collective societal change.

Book Description
The New Earth is the happy ending predicted by spiritual mystics for thousands of years. Nirvana, Heaven, Shambhala, Gaia, and Third Temple are some of the names, but the name is irrelevant. It's a higher vibrational dimension without fear, binarism, and violence. Peace, collaboration, and a clean planet are the norms. Spiritual Nutrition provides tools to bring the New Earth to us smoothly. The book enables readers to understand and feel what's going on and helps them make changes to themselves to help. It presents strategies and steps to clean the body, mind, and spirit; lift the vibration; and spread loving light as an antidote for fear and hate. It also questions the meaning of reality. The book relies on an energy vibration context for its argument. Higher vibrations are peaceful, kind, and smooth, the kind we need to move to the New Earth. Lower vibrations are angry, destructive, and disempowering--the kind that holds us in a world of fear and hate. The book relies on vibrational lifting as the goal and prescribes a path of a plant-based diet, meditation, yoga, thoughtfulness, and kindness to self and others.

Book Description
SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2021 STANFORD DOLMAN TRAVEL BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2020 WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR UK NATURE WRITING Alone on a remote mountaintop one dark night, a woman hears a mysterious voice. Propelled by the memory and after years of dreaming about it, Jini Reddy dares to delve into the 'wanderlands' of Britain, heading off in search of the magical in the landscape. A London journalist with multicultural roots and a perennial outsider, she determinedly sets off on this unorthodox path. Serendipity and her inner compass guide her around the country in pursuit of the Other and a connection to Britain's captivating natural world. Where might this lead? And if you know what it is to be Othered yourself, how might this colour your experiences? And what if, in invoking the spirit of the land, 'it' decides to make its presence felt? Whether following a 'cult' map to a hidden well that refuses to reveal itself, attempting to persuade a labyrinth to spill its secrets, embarking on a coast-to-coast pilgrimage or searching for a mystical land temple, Jini depicts a whimsical, natural Britain. Along the way, she tracks down ephemeral wild art, encounters women who worship The Goddess, falls deeper in love with her birth land and struggles – but mostly fails – to get to grips with its lore. Throughout, she rejoices in the wildness we cannot see and celebrates the natural beauty we can, while offering glimpses of her Canadian childhood and her Indian parents' struggles in apartheid-era South Africa. Wanderland is a book in which the heart leads, all things are possible and the Other, both wild and human, comes in from the cold. It is a paean to the joy of roaming, both figuratively and imaginatively, and to the joy of finding your place in the world.
