This One Time On Psychedelics - Episode 144: How To Optimize Our Psychedelic Experiences & Life As A Whole (feat. Christian Van Camp)

Episode 144: How To Optimize Our Psychedelic Experiences & Life As A Whole (feat. Christian Van Camp)

12/29/23 • 78 min

This One Time On Psychedelics

One of my favorite things about this show is that within the wide array of psychedelic experiences, there are SO many important topics I can discuss within the scope of how to truly allow these medicines to work more effectively & efficiently within our experience of life. Within that notion, no subject comes to mind quicker when I think about the foundational layer of what can allow these medicines to work in this way than the subject of health as a whole. Today's guest on the show is a returning guest, a psychedelic proponent & someone who has dedicated his life to helping people optimize their fitness, nutrition & overall health so that they can become the best versions of themselves. Within this episode, we begin with a debriefing of the Arkadia music festival we both went to out in Vegas before diving into many of our current health practices, how to avoid the challenge of swinging from polarity to polarity in life & much, much more.

Show Notes:
(02:14) An update from Cristian!
(01:15:31) Where you can connect with Christian!
(05:57) Ryan recalls Arcadia.
(12:52) Austin or Boston?
(30:13) Surviving winter.
(44:37) The decision spectrum.
(01:15:31) Where you can reach Cristian!

Episode 143: How To Open Up The Ability To Thrive In Life (feat. Allison Pelot)

One of the terms I love most when I think of living a Highly Optimized life is the notion of thriving. To me, thriving perfectly illustrates the idea of being at your best & simultaneously knowing it & embodying that state of being. This being said, it begs the question of why SO many of us only get glimpses of what thriving truly feels like in our lives, while others seem to be able to tap into this state much more frequently. Today's guest on the show is a returning guest & dear friend of mine who has made it her mission to guide others into their ultimate thriving state. From her Amazon best-selling book, “Finally Thriving”, to her newest creation, the “Finally Thriving” program, which you can join the waitlist for by diving into the show notes of this episode, it’s safe to say that for any of you tuning in who are looking to bring a deeper sense of thriving to your life, that this episode will open up many possibilities for you to chew on.

Episode 145: The Importance Of Taking The Time To Integrate (feat. Alex Morningstar)

One of, if not the most common questions I receive from individuals who have been in the psychedelic space for some time now is how to know when you need a break from the medicines to integrate. The challenge with this is that ultimately the answer is going to be different from person to person, however, there are some telltale signs to look out for, along with a roadmap of how to understand when you are ready & have the necessary bandwidth to go back to the medicine. This is why in todays episode, I invited my dear brother & business partner, who has taken the last year off of all medicines to integrate to a deeper degree, to come onto the show & share why he decided to take the break, how the break has been, what it has opened up for him & his thoughts surrounding what these periods of integration are truly for within the big picture of life. For those of you out there who are committed to leveling up & are consciously connecting with medicines, trust me when I say that this is one episode that you’re going to want to hit.
