Continuing his healing journey in South America, Tom offers a very personal recounting of his experiences in a San Pedro ceremony. San Pedro cactus, also known as huachuma (wa-choo’-ma), is a tall, fast-growing cactus that contains the psychedelic compound mescaline – and has been used for its powerful medicinal properties by South American peoples for thousands of years. The primary psychoactive compound is mescaline, considered a classical psychedelic because it causes physiological impacts that can leave a person in an altered state for hours. In recent decades Westerners have begun traveling to South America to participate in authentic and legal San Pedro ceremonies. Joined again by Adam Stammers, who is both a helper and participant in the San Pedro ceremony, you can hear common themes and differences between the San Pedro experience and the Ayahuasca ceremony.
