Has anyone done ayahuasca without a history of trauma or addiction?
I am signed up for a retreat in about a month. I have researched aya for a long time and already begun my dieta. I’ve been interested in trying ayahuasca out of sheer curiosity - however, I don’t have any specific traumas or addictions I’m trying to heal. I just want to see what the experience is like. Not saying my life is perfect, I do have mild problems like anxiety sometimes and stuff like that, but all in all, I have had a very easy life with an absence of tragedy. I have experience with other psychedelics but have never participated in any sacred ceremonies.
Most everyone I have talked to that has done ayahuasca has used it to heal them of severe trauma and/or addictions. I guess, I would like to hear stories from people who didn’t have specific emotional/spiritual wounds to heal. Also opinions on taking a sacred plant medicine without being “sick” so to speak. Is it justified for me to go on this journey without a serious spiritual wound that needs healing? Am I disrespecting the medicine? Please, tell me your thoughts and share your stories!
