In this episode of Sacred Psychedelics, Xochitl engages in a profound conversation with Janell Flores Bolte, a soul coach and author. Janell shares her exceptional journey of personal transformation and healing, deeply rooted in her connection with nature, ancestors, and her late husband, John. The dialogue highlights the impactful role of sacred plant medicines and psychedelics in her life, particularly during John's six-year battle with terminal cancer. Throughout her experiences, Janell provides insights into the somatic experience of grief, the use of psilocybin in personal growth, and the spiritual messages received through dreams and rituals. The episode includes practical advice for those mourning loved ones and emphasizes the importance of symbolisms, spirit communication, and connecting with nature for healing.
Janell Flores Bolte communicates daily with nature, her ancestors, and her dead husband. She is a Soul Coach and a certified Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) instructor through the University of Massachusetts Medical Center. She also serves at the Northern California VA teaching mindfulness and brain health practices. She is a graduate of the Alma Institute and the creator of numerous online and in person courses and workshops.
