Debunking the myths of Ayahuasca
“This episode gives a whole new meaning to "What's the Tea?". Jeannie Mai is curious about the benefits of Ayahuasca so she's invited Iván, a facilitator who's been leading the ceremony all over the world, to get to the bottom of what this tea even is and what it even does. Iván will discuss how his first experience with Ayahuasca inspired him to become a facilitator and how this tea can help you explore parts of yourself that have yet to be uncovered. Jeannie's curious about who wouldn’t be a good candidate for ingesting the tea. And finally, Jeannie and her brother Dennis decide whether or not they want to try it.”
