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. Psychedelics researcher Professor David Nutt, psychologist Bill Richards and physician Gabor Maté return to the show to explain what’s happening to the mind when DMT is used and how some believe it can help with recovery from trauma. In this episode:


  • Evgeny reveals that Ayahuasca brought old fears home to roost
  • 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
  • Gabor Maté examines what Evgeny’s experience with Ayahuasca really says about his mental state
