In today's episode you can listen to my interview with Dr Meghan
O'Reilly and we talk about her experiences and insights as a
doctor on dealing with psychedelics and how they can serve as a
tool to heal trauma.

Meghan has been guided by her inner feelings and feminine
intuition to do only the things that bring her joy and fulfilment
in life. She is originally from Canada, but has seen many stops
around the world along the way. From Taiwan helping with the 2004
Tsunami disaster to South Africa working for the AIDS Awareness
Foundation, she has always been able to fulfil her desire to give
back to people and the world. Her heart was always in the right
place and the right opportunities were always revealed to her
from moment to moment.

Currently, Meghan lives in the Caribbean, where she says she has
realised her long-awaited dream of becoming a naturopathic family
doctor. She is able to treat her patients in a very individual
and holistic body-mind approach and manages to combine her
medical knowledge of western diagnoses with various perspectives
on eastern philosophies that she has been able to acquire over
the years.

We also talk about her first psychedelic experience in the form
of an MDMA-assisted psychotherapy session as well as her
participation in an ayahuasca retreat in South America, where we
were then allowed to get to know each other at the end of 2019.

What was exciting for me was to understand how she is now putting
into practice the insights she has gained from psychedelic
experiences with her clients. We talk about her newly developed
understanding of working with trauma patients and how a new
definition of trauma allows you to work with it better as an
adult and to understand how our childhood experiences still shape
us decades later, without most of us even being aware of it.

After this talk, my view on this has changed fundamentally.
