Dissolving The Ego, Ketamine Therapy, & The Core Of Consciousness W/ Dr. Ted Achacoso #291

The cosmic MD, Dr. Ted Achacoso, is back!  Dr. Ted is the founding pioneer of the clinical practice of Health Optimization Medicine (HOMe) and one of the most inspiring human beings I’ve ever had the pleasure of speaking to. It’s rare to meet someone who can so gracefully pair being scientific, analytical, and intelligent with an expansive exploration of consciousness and spirituality, but when you do, you… well, you record a three-hour conversation and ask every question you can think of to explore the depth of human health and consciousness. From nootropics to making your own ayahuasca to the quantum field of consciousness, and a whole lot in between, it’s all in here. Dr. Ted is one of my favorite human beings in the world, and by the end of this episode, I can guarantee he’s going to be one of yours, too.   07:50 — #BlueTongueMagic: The wonders of Blue Cannatine Use code “Luke5” for 5% off Blue Cannatine What the four ingredients in Blue Cannatine do for your brain: Methylene Blue, caffeine, nicotine, and hempcanna Comparisons to the Limitless pill Why Dr. Ted originally created Blue Cannatine Luke’s CBD joint experiment The effect of recreational marijuana use on the brain   39:40 — A lightning round of Luke’s questions about drugs and supplements What’s up with kratom?
