The Dojo Podcast Episode 33 : Psychedelics, Ancestry and the Medicine of Gratitude with Lauren Taus

In today’s transmission, Zahara sits with Psychedelic Therapist, Educator, and Speaker Lauren Taus. With Lauren being a sought-after psychedelic therapist, working alongside her dad, who also happens to be a pioneer in the legal psychedelic therapy space, you may think her life’s always been sunshine and rainbows-but Lauren’s no stranger to darkness. She spent her early years relentlessly striving to live up to her title as a ‘good girl,’ chasing accolades, struggling with anorexia, and feeling empty inside. Since then, she’s had many deaths, resurrections, and rebirths aided by both natural and synthetic psychedelics. Lauren explains why she chooses to embrace her entire emotional keyboard, how she’s come to love her Jewish heritage, why she strongly opposes hierarchies of any form, and why she strives always to say ‘thank you,’, especially during her most challenging moments.
In this episode of The Dojo:
- Lauren’s deaths, resurrections, and rebirths aided by psychedelics
- Transferring ancestral pain and trauma into compassion and understanding
- Lauren’s favorite Hebrew morning prayer
- How ketamine, a dissociative, actually helps us feel more
- Synthetic vs. plant-based medicines and drug hierarchies
- Lauren’s experience of tripping with, and working alongside, her dad
