HAM Episode 61 - Magic Mushrooms with Truffle Therapy's Chi Amsterdam

Chi starts off with his colourful background and how he pivoted into overseeing numerous psilocybin sessions today. From his particular experience playing professional poker Chi learned how the poker scene provided lessons about how not to act, which lead him to reorientate himself and begin his journey of self exploration. Seibo and Chi start off about their introduction to products such as cannabis, acid, and psilocybin. Chi then describes his own journey about how he was initially introduced to mushrooms by his friend, and subsequently this first positive experience encouraged him to continue exploring the world of psilocybin. The pair then disclose advice to those wanting to begin using psilocybin and the importance of priming the individual. Factors such as a good environment, positive mindset, and being honest with yourself about your preparedness can heavily determine the outcome of your first session. Chi also provides sound advice about the need for a good support system and dosing before attempting psilocybin, as well as the qualities of a good trip-sitter. Seibo moves into the final leg of the podcast about how changing terminologies can make unfamiliar topics more palatable for public consumption; being a conduit may also allow people to be more open to the idea of more stigmatized products such as psilocybin. The pair then transition to Asian culture and its perceived inability to address repressed emotions, how Asian cultures may benefit from psilocybin use and how it could potentially be introduced. Finally, the podcast closes out about how we can face our own sense of self and how psilocybin sessions could facilitate self awareness and individual growth.
