EP 153 ANCESTRAL HEALING, REDEFINING FAMILY, AND FINDING YOUR TRIBE

Family healing is one of the most challenging and rewarding paths of working with plant medicine. For me, it has included learning to find gratitude for my own family of origin. Finding peace and compassion for my father well after his death. Healing ancestral wounds of scarcity, self-sacrifice, and addiction. Radical acceptance without understanding. Willingness to be authentic and set boundaries, even when it means I am misunderstood and not liked. And redefining family as a chosen resonance that has little to do with bloodline, and everything to do with love.

What does family mean to you?
Do you believe you can choose your family?
How do you hide your true self out of fear of not being loved or accepted?
What beauty could be on the other side of changing your understanding of family and relationships?

At some point on this path, you may find yourself in a place of sacred solitude. When the old relationships are falling away or changing, but the new ones haven’t started to sprout yet. This can be a lonely place of feeling like you don’t belong. That there is something wrong with you. That you will never find your people.

That’s simply not true.

Feeling bad because you don’t fit into a monoculture society with no connection quantum reality is a painful way to live. It’s that pain that drives most people to seek out plant medicine in the first place. This knowing that something is missing. The desire for a more true path. To feel deeply and experience life fully.

The path that opens up asks you to say,”This ends with me.” You decide you’re the one who is going to do the ancestral healing for yourself and humanity. You start to grow and change and evolve.

The only person who can make this choice is you. And it is 100% a choice.

Do you want to”fit in”or do you want to belong? Belonging is a state of being that comes from within. In order to belong, you have to free yourself from the thoughts and beliefs that are telling you that you are supposed to be”normal” like everyone else. Being free isn’t easy, that’s why most people aren’t going to do it.

Psychedelics are about deprogramming you from the layers and layers of beliefs and societal dogma that has been handed down through the generations. Medicine breaks down the barriers inside the psyche and reveal a new truth. That everything you believe is meant to be questioned, examined, and changed to what feels the most beneficial and beautiful.

You can come to peace with your origin family, even if your relationships change. You can choose your family by embodying the values and vibration you want and attracting from that place of magnetism. It is not hard to make friends when you are confident and present in your authentic self.

You can only elevate our relationships with others when you come to peace and love in relationship with yourself. When you face and feel the feelings handed down to you by our grandparents and your parents and everyone who came before.

When you stop separating yourself from Nature and Spirit, and look in the mirror and see that God has been here inside and all around you the whole time. When we decide to believe a new truth.

On this week’s show, I’m sharing about healing the wounds of family. Deciding you can choose your family. And learning how to let go of limiting beliefs about the world and what matters through authentic, honest relationship. Healing the wounds of our ancestors, finding your tribe, and the power of love to outlast time and space.

Love,
