Hi I'm from Peru and SP grows everywhere here... This amazing plant is like the friend and teacher everyone needs to hang out with! Unfortunately, most people here don't know it could literally change their lives. This powerful medicine made me experience the world without a filter. Thanks for sharing this content.
Thank you. This was a magnificent interview. I learned so much and really felt the sacred relationship come through Laurel Anne Sugden. It's so refreshing to experience a deviation from the clinical/medical model.
Mmm mm thank you thank you thank you San Pedro you blessed me with feeling your heart beat and revealing one never dies, I am part of Eagle bones , Azteca Warrior Woman, Petrified stone, an Elephants eye.... saw myself so sooo old....I feel it in every part of me.... my heart has been opened , touched by wisdom of our SUN, Grandfather Spirit via the almightiness of San Pedro's medicine....a gift of a life time....just forever.
My pleasure. Glad it had that impact for you :) I am actually just now trying to figure out the optimal placement of a new shelf I got to bring my cacti in the office in a permanent way! I feel like I need their energy closer to me in my daily life.
@@AdventuresThroughTheMind I can totally understand that. 😄 I hold them sometimes while meditating or put one next to my bed when I go to sleep. Just love their frequency. ❤️ I'm sure you'll find the perfect place for your beautiful cacti. ☺️
I have a few hundred in my backyard and field some of them are quite big. I started from a few hundred seeds and then small seedlings four years ago. They are one of the easiest plants to grow and make a magical atmosphere in the garden
Everyone should grow their own medicine.. But I'm totally for the propagation of wild genetics, the spreading of cuttings, not the destruction of whole wild stands to be turned into powder.. With different techniques the amount of growth you can get is exponential, you could take one tiny piece and in a year turn it into 20 footlong columns through grafting.
32:00 Another AMERICAN GUESS about Australian cacti scene. We have had cacti here since the late 1800s but the BIG collections and large importation like the well known "fields" family collection have been around since the 1920s and 1930s. 400 SPECIES in that collection and I have multiple from that gene pool. So not 50 maybe 70, more like 90-100 years FOR MOST cacti varieties here in Australia but limited amounts in the late 1800s. FYI we have no native cacti but do have native pig face. And more wattle containing DMT than you can imagine including a certain type of COMMON grass that the sheep eat. I have read we have a native cocaine bush, and DEFINITELY have a native tobacco that is quite strong but only in one area. The aboriginals used it as basically red bull by chewing, and you could walk long distances and not get hungry. They dried the long thin leaves and rolled them up and would put a few behind their ear like a pen. They traded these quite heavily. Apparently it's quite a blast of a stimulant according to how far they could walk and how long. Not a hard drug, but definitely a few cans of red bull all in 3/4" on your hand.
1:02:28 In reference to the bridge, or Sacred relationship. "When attempting right relations with all as equal, and grateful for our position in it, a re birth may occur." Mitchell Lazaroff 2022 1:19:38 Points to the diametrically opposed values of human anthropocentric materialism verses traditional animistic knowing. For some, the longest journey is from their mind to their heart. Plant medicine ceremonies are not always quick fixes, they are, in my opinion, a remedy or path, contrary to materialistic values, of humble integration back to wholeness.
I'd definitely say that peruvianus and pachanoi are two extremes of the same thing. The variations in traits and phenos is astounding. I've seen perus that looks like pachs and pachs with long spines that look like perus, like look at the huanucoensis types, they're supposed to be pachanoi but look like bridgesii on steroids. Not to mention the fact that they readily hybridize.
And I've got hybrids and strains that look like everything fixed up. Even one that grows a deep purple when young. Knuthianus has huge spikes, and there's another tiny one with long spikes and a whole ton with red spikes. Even pachanoi, the strains vary so much. I have numerous penis cacti as well. They look quite odd. And throw out tons of pups.
I’m in Australia, would you mind giving me a contact for the walk u did whilst here please. Thank you for this interview. I just bought my 1st San Pedro your video was perfect, just what I wanted to hear and more.
This was several years ago and the person who hosted it is no longer living in Australia. Sorry :( Also, I am very happy to hear you received this podcast well :)
San Pedro is pachanoi. pachanoi is more rare in Peru it’s a different climate zone Peruvianus is used in the areas that people refer to it as huachuma bridgesii is also known as huachuma because it grows in those climate zones that pachanoi doesn’t
Totally off subject, but my mind went off into a tangent when Laurel had spoke of how grounding the experience from the plant was and I had to pause the video….I thought your potted plants being physically disconnected from earth and not being grounded, us taking off our shoes and connecting to earth, electricity and how it is presented to us in a way that can be monetized……anyway there are ways to ground potted plants!
Given that other compounds in the San Pedro may be contributing to the experience, do you recommend processing the entire plant or just the outer sections without the core? Thanks for the wonderful episode!!
Excellent question. I believe they addressed this in their lecture for ESPD55, but I don't know how you would access it now. espd55.com/event/ethnopharmacology-and-phytochemical-profiling-of-huachuma/
@@AdventuresThroughTheMind Thanks for the quick reply! I will perhaps try to email Laurel with my question. I recently acquired a few cuttings to plant for the first time, and was pleased to find they were big enough that I could process some sections right away while planting the rest. Cheers!
@@AdventuresThroughTheMind Given how hardy they are, I’d love to send you a cutting as thanks for your podcast. Not sure if I can send from USA to Canada though (I think that’s where you are?)

Iv had the call to grow them about 5 years and it has been such a bless getting to bond and learn about these wonderful creations
I love her mix of scientific and spiritual background.

I am very happy to hear you found such value in this one :) Thanks for tuning in

Great video! Thanks, hope i can take care of my homies and they can take care of me for years 🌵
