In this episode, I interview Naomi Tolson. Naomi is a microdosing coach, psychedelic guide, advocate and community science researcher. She specialises in supporting parents who choose to microdose during their pregnancy and postpartum journey. Join us as we discuss how microdosing can support the pregnancy, birth and postpartum journey. You’ll hear about Naomi’s journey of discovering microdosing and how it led her to stop attending births as a doula, the benefits of microdosing, debunking myths, and how microdosing can help heal birth trauma.
Highlights of this episode include:
Naomi’s personal journey of discovering microdosing and the way pregnant and postpartum women in the eco spiritual community she visited used it as a tool for spiritual growth and transformation during their pregnancy and postpartum journeys and why she could no longer work as a birth doula in the current maternity system
The benefits of microdosing, and how mushrooms may have contributed to the evolutionary leap in human history
Dispelling common myths about microdosing
How microdosing can support the birth journey
How microdosing can help heal birth trauma
