Ayahuasca for prolonged grief treatment

My name is Ken Breniman (pronouns: he/him)

I am a LCSW, Yoga Therapist, Plant Medicine Integration Counselor. I specialize in helping fellow mortals make peace with unresolved questions and cultivate equanimity when confronted with loss.    

And, as the title says, I am a big proponent of planting seeds. 

Today’s seeds = questions to ponder

By viewing this learning experience.

You will gain an increased comfort level with and an introductory knowledge base about a tiny little sprout in our field of thanatology. 

The sprout I am referring to is psychedelic-assisted grief therapy.   

And the plant medicine we will focus on today is called ayahuasca. 

Ayahuasca helped me deal with my own ‘stuck grief’ and I feel called to educate others about the potential benefits and risks of this psychedelic tea.
