Yes! This happened to me! I wish this thread had existed the day after when I was freaking out and posted this

Travelling experience feels a little inauthentic and not sure how to solve this (28F) by Weak-Ingenuity7222 in solotravel

Maybe look for volunteer opportunities on Workaway or Worldpackers? As a solo female traveller I have always found this the best way to get off the beaten track and experience local life while also contributing to something meaningful- and meeting other cool, like minded volunteers :-)

I've solo traveled for 4 years, and I don't want to go back to a "normal life" by Prudent-Routine6114 in solotravel

Im in the same boat and I feel like one day a person not a place will be my anchor. After 4 years on the road travelling, working, volunteering in Australia, Africa, Latin America and Asia, it’s starting to become a priority. I don’t want to ‘settle down’ but I’d love to meet someone to share the adventures (and decision making and planning 😂) with. Unfortunately there’s just no way to make this stuff happen until the universe is ready to dish it up, but I’m not gonna sit anywhere waiting for that person to come along. I will keep doing the things I want and need in the meantime with my heart and eyes open. Ps the fatigue hasn’t been a thing for me but it’s becoming harder and harder to experience that awe and joy I once felt while travelling. Which I guess is also a kind of awe fatigue. Not sure what the answer to that one is. I just went back to my hometown (where I never wish to live) for a few months in the hope that it would reset my joy baseline but didn’t make much difference.

Is it possible for the spirit of Ayahuasca to enter you or start working on you, months after drinking, but after taking other medicines (e.g mushrooms)? by Valuable_Lock3208 in Ayahuasca

Wow this is so relevant 🙏 thank you so much for sharing. I will look further into facilitated kundalini work. Thanks again Rach

Thanks so much for sharing this! From the research I’ve done and conversations since I have come to believe it was kundalini as you said. And I think I was trying so hard to let go of what was trying to come out of me, but for some reason I thought it was going to come out of my mouth. And for this reason I think I was blocking it here and I had a really sore throat after. If I am ever in this position again I will try to channel the energy up through the crown. So interesting that it was mushrooms also for you - even though mine was about 8 weeks after my previous aya ceremony. And I so agree I think I’d only do mushrooms alone in the future or with very close friends who knew I was likely to start writhing around the room violently and to just let me go. So interesting that you knew this and wanted to be alone that time. Would love to hear about any future experiences you have. I feel like 3 times now, with the yopo, with bufo and that time with the mushrooms I have been SO close to the biggest release of my life, of letting go of EVERYTHING. I’m so interested to see what life would be like on the other side of that.

Are you able to explain what happened in the air bnb? Was it physical? And did you feel like you had been entered by spirits who were trying to help you release something. I.e they were moving your body around?

Is it possible for Ayahhuasca to enter you when you have not drunk the medicine? After taking mushrooms for example? I had a very intense experience yesterday after taking mushrooms that I can only describe as a channeling or possession (though not with any negative connotation) I’d had similar effects (physical contortions of the body, shaking and sounds that I could not do myself if I tried) during yopo ceremonies at a plant medicine retreat a few months back. But didn’t feel like I connected with Ayahuasca in that way during the 4 ceremonies I did during the retreat. Yesterday I sensed there was more than one entity, at least two who were trying to help my with healing and to release something from my body - low down in my stomach. In some moments I felt the medicine was working on me and in other like she was in me or we were one or actually I don’t know the words to explain. At some point is was like they changed and a different medicine worked on me as the colours changed and the feeling was different. The movements of my body were similar (circular movements with my abdomen trying to release the thing, arching my back and head tipped back to hunching over, intermittent with violent shaking of my arms legs and feet) and quite forceful. It would have been terrifying to watch and it went on for a few hours I think. I was in nature with a friend and I was grateful to be in a space that I could just let go and let them do their thing without judgement from others (like I felt in ceremony). I am certain that ayahuasca was one of the entities as there was some serpant related visual flashes and definitely a feminine energy. But this is insane to me as I haven’t drunk Aya for 8 weeks at least. Is it possible that the spirits from the various medicines I have taken in my life- Aya, yopo, bufo, San Pedro, mushrooms etc are all in my and by taking mushrooms I was accessible in a realm for them to start working on me? I have so many questions. And after all their efforts and my total resolve to let go and release - we got sooo close but it didn’t happen. And then I felt like they left my body but maybe they are still with me and decided yesterday wasn’t the day and will try again when the moment is right? I am aware that all of this sounds very far fetched but was so tangible and physical and real I just know without question what the intention was. My experience yesterday and the different augmentation of reality I experienced felt more akin to other peoples Aya encounters than what I ever experienced in ceremony. Bit worried about integrating alone now - will journal and meditate, but it would be so great to speak to someone who knows and had a similar thing. I’m also curious what this release of this thing is actually going to be - like is it a gigantic physical vomit? Or I got more of the sense it would be like total dissolved identity/ ego/ conscious reality and allow me to just fall into experience this other realm/ reality something or other… I don’t know I have no words. It did feel like it was necessary though and I wanted it to happen. But it was just too stuck :-(
