In-depth conversations around making life as good as it can be, with people from all walks of life dedicated to exploring, healing, expanding, or transforming the self. We are especially focused on psychedelics, heat and cold exposure, breathwork, and other practices that take us to the limits of human experience in both body and mind, so that we can better find our selves. Primal Nature is a podcast and center for psychedelic therapy in rural Spain. We work primarily with people who have reached the limits of what rational analysis can offer in terms of healing or growth; our practice is centered on cultivating deeper relationships between feeling and understanding, body and mind, human and nature. We offer therapy for individuals and couples, as well as workshops, retreats, and expeditions - in select locations throughout Europe, the Americas, and Africa. www.primalnature.eu Insta: @existential.hormesis
