Using plant medicine, using psychedelics, makes you a better parent.
In this episode of the Plant Medicine for PTSD podcast, I walk through six reasons why I truly believe psychedelics (and especially a Mindful Microdosing process) can make you a better dad or mom.
We talk about the sacred pause—that space between stimulus and response—so you’re not just stumbling from one knee-jerk reaction to the next.
We get into shadow work, unpacking your own childhood stuff so your kid isn’t constantly triggering the parts of you that never got taken care of.
And we talk about presence, because it goes by so fast, and every moment you’re not there, you don’t get that back.
I also share what’s basically been my cheat code for disarming toddler meltdowns (and honestly, adult ones too)/
When your kid feels understood ... what they want, and how it feels to not get it ...it takes a massive amount of fuel out of the tantrum.
And all of this ties together: the pause, the presence, the surrender, regulating yourself first… so you can actually be the calm in the storm.
