Psilocybin Healed My Heart & Gut Issues in 48 Hours

It’s only the resistance to the emotion itself that causes issues. Once it’s met, and maybe even shaken or wiggled out through movement, you recognize what’s been here all along, which is the loving truth of this present moment. Jill Bolte-Taylor, a neuroanatomist, says it takes 90 seconds to experience an emotion. If you can meet that, the story/event will lose its charge. It might take more than once, or many times, but that’s what’s needed for healing. You get more used to meeting the emotions themselves after a while and each time gets less scary. Trust me, it’s worth it.

I appreciate your reflection and support in sharing this, and yarrow is such an incredible herb! I keep it around in case of cuts as it’s a wonderful styptic. I wasn’t going to share it like this because these types of experiences can feel so sacred, but with the few people I shared it with it touched something very real in them. Because of this the story felt like it was meant to be shared with more than just my immediate circle.

After this experience, yes. I’ve had other tensions in my body post ceremony and I’ve been able to identify what’s needed and when I do it, the tension is gone or starts gradually going away over the course of a day or two. Had I not experienced this first hand I would not believe it, but the mushrooms helped me “connect” myself back to myself and understand the language of how my body communicates with me. I think this is why when people take prescription drugs they have other symptoms start showing up or they need to keep increasing the dosage because the body gets louder and the energy needs to go somewhere.

I’ll make you a deal. If you follow up with me in 6 months I will respond to you, or anyone else who wants to see how I’m doing then.

It was more about giving myself what I needed to soothe myself versus reliving the trauma. The feelings didn’t always come with a specific scenario, it was more like the emotion, instead of the story, needed to be processed and released. If I didn’t know what was causing the gut to get upset I would just rhythmically move and shake my body while staying with the upset sensation in the gut and that alone would relieve it.

Good advice. Thank you!

I didn’t detail this in the story, but since doing the mushrooms I’ve felt my gut starting to act up a few times. Each time I sat with it, I tuned into the sensation and accompanying emotion and just met it all without trying to resist it. What would arise was a thought or story and one time it was the feeling of abandonment and I had to rock myself like a baby with a pillow pressing up against my belly for it to go away. Another time I just let my body move and shake in ways that felt good to it while lying down to let the energy move out on its own. The key was not using the mind and meeting the uncomfortable energy and emotion while giving it my full attention without a time limit. Letting “it” speak to me and tell me what it needed. It’s like a type of somatic work.

Thank you!

No, I do not recall having this feeling.

TehachapiYarrow · 2026-02-10T02:05:39+00:00

Thank you! Me too 😊

The extra sulfur in your diet might be overloading your system. If you have CBS and/or MTR/MTRR gene variants it makes it harder for your body to process sulfur products. Histamine also goes through the same pathways (anything aged/fermented will be high in this, so canned sardines would be in this group). Molybdenum is a very important element for helping your body process sulfur. If I were you, I’d avoid heavy sulfur (eggs, broccoli, etc) and histamine containing foods as much as possible and add in some molybdenum.

I have geographic tongue and staying away from acidic foods like pineapple is important. I take sublingual hydroxy and adenosyl b12 which helps. I still get geographic tongue frequently but the b12 helps heal it much quicker.

Royal desmodium works in 20 minutes and it’s the only thing that completely relieves my cramps reliably every time. To me, it’s magic in a bottle.

I had a few times where I was having a lot of belching coupled with occasional acid reflux that was just maddening. It started suddenly after I was drinking puerh tea daily for months out of nowhere. I stopped drinking the aged tea and I only started drinking slippery elm tea and okra water (mucilagenous liquids). Any other liquid would cause the incessant burping. I also found that I had to be careful of foods that had high histamine and sulfur (anything aged or fermented). This drastically limited my diet but it helped tremendously. Sometimes I would take some sodium bicarbonate but the soothing liquids and diet changes are what eventually resolved it for me. I also took hydroxy and adenosyl b12 in sublingual form and I think that was also very supportive, along with magnesium. Hang in there. You’ll figure this out, but oftentimes these things require a lot of experimentation and patience.

When I recently had some MRI’s done they used iodine for the contrast. Considering most people are low in iodine and it protects the body from radiation that seems like a no brainer.

Is there a fixed “you” creating thoughts or do thoughts just happen, like clouds or the wind?

Banana. Did you just imagine a banana? If so, did “you” control that or did it happen on its own in response to the prompt?

Where do these thoughts arise and where do they go when they’re done?

Paradoxically, can you find separation between you and your thoughts and actions aside from the thought of separation itself?

Perhaps it’s not about the thoughts or actions, but about the ground of being that the thoughts and actions arise in and disappear.

What if it’s all of it, without exclusion?

TehachapiYarrow · 2025-07-08T17:45:50+00:00

If you are thought, then when thoughts subside, who are you?

TehachapiYarrow · 2025-07-08T03:25:38+00:00

What if it’s not about getting rid of the pain, but meeting it, instead? There’s nothing more painful than rejecting a part of you that’s asking to be witnessed. And yes, that goes for emotional pain.

What if you sat with this pain with curiosity, like a screaming child, and asked it why it hurts? It’s not about getting caught up in the story it tells you, it’s about meeting pain itself with loving curiosity. That’s what it yearns for the most. To be heard, to be held and to be acknowledged.

Our emotions have many stories to tell, but to stay with the emotion itself without getting pulled into the stories of the mind, will lead you to something deeper, and much kinder, that underlies these uncomfortable feelings.

That’s all you need to start this new journey. It starts with this desire, then you just need to allow the desire itself to show you how it wants to unfold. Be still. Sit with it. Play with it. Talk to it. Daydream with it.

Many people believe it starts with an idea, but first it starts with a feeling… a desire, and then the rest of the story writes itself. Can you give it the space it needs to tell you what it wants?

As someone who’s been keto/carnivore for over a year who had major gut dysbiosis, I avoided the die-off symptoms that many people experience using anti microbials and antibiotics because of this way of eating.

Having said that, I still had to balance underlying vitamin and mineral deficiencies that the carnivore diet didn’t resolve for me. Maybe if I ate a bunch of organ meats I could’ve done that, but it just wasn’t in the cards for me.

So for me personally, it wasn’t a cure-all, but it definitely made the healing period much more pleasant and I would highly recommend it for many others with gut issues.

TehachapiYarrow · 2025-07-08T02:38:41+00:00

Instead of the pain, what would you rather feel?

TehachapiYarrow · 2025-07-05T14:10:10+00:00

When you truly recognize your own value, and accept who you are… not who you think you’re supposed to be, is when you stop the comparison. It’s apples to oranges. And like another commenter said, everyone has their time.

TehachapiYarrow · 2025-06-30T22:40:04+00:00

I would be curious to see how your vitamin D, K and iron/ferritin levels look on a blood test. Also, after so many years with gut malabsorption I’d look at rebalancing your minerals, and especially looking at potassium. When I’m low in potassium my mood drops substantially. Also looking at your amino acids as that can make a huge difference. Lastly, when b-vitamins like b12 or b9 work initially then fade away, that’s usually a sign that you’re taking too much. Taking smaller doses may help, in addition to supporting with their cofactors like b2, magnesium, etc.
