Launch Medicine

In episode 46, Aaron chats with Spring Washam, a meditation teacher, author, healer, and visionary leader who is bridging the worlds of Buddhism and Ayahuasca through teachings and retreats. Aaron and Spring talk about the connection between various religious traditions and plant medicine. Spring shares her story of how she came to Ayahuasca after years as a Buddhist practitioner and how she believes they are complimentary practices (even though this can be quite controversial in the Buddhist community!). Aaron and Spring also discuss the connection between Buddhism, social justice and activism. Spring shares her thoughts on how we can be activists for causes that we care about with love as the motivating force. If you are interested in meditation, Buddhism, plant medicine, or healing, this is a truly inspirational discussion. Spring is a pure delight and seems to radiate joy in everything she says.
