In the jungle at night, a journey awaits for you... are you ready to embrace the experience? Ayahuasca, the vine of the soul, and how to find your inner space.
Ayahuasca has been used for centuries by shaman healers in South America. Today, Western health officials are starting to examine the benefits the drug has on mental health.
Dr. Philip E. Wolfson, a California-based psychiatrist, has been studying the effects of MDMA (ecstasy) and ketamine on patients with different disorders, including PTSD.
He said there’s a great deal of “hopefulness” about the drug in the medical community.
“It’s widely accepted among those of us who practice that ayahuasca has a great potential,” he told Healthline.
While further study is needed to understand the drug’s effects on users, there are many around the world that swear by the positive effects of the plant. One of those people is Jan Kounen, the director of the VR film Ayahuasca: Kosmik Journey and the feature film Blueberry.
Jan’s oeuvre shows his desire to share the knowledge of how Ayahuasca has helped him.
“Ayahuasca acts as a revealer, it is a plant that enables us to ‘see,’ to ‘see ourselves.’ Through chanting therapy, Ayahuasca helps a patient heal. But the patient is the one who self heals through his or her inner experience.” - Jan Kounen
