My Ayahuasca Journey

Evgeny Lebedev describes his experience at a psychedelic retreat in Costa Rica where he encountered Ayahuasca, a plant-based brew used by indigenous healers.

  • David Nutt tells us about the history of psychedelic use, dating back to 5,000 BC
  • Bill Richards looks at the use of them by artists and writers
