Martin W. Ball

Welcome to the Entheogenic Evolution Podcast, hosted by author Martin W. Ball, Ph.D. This podcast is dedicated to the discussion of the nondual and unitary nature of being as revealed by conscious entheogenic energetic awakening as well as hosting long-form conversations on diverse and broad topics in psychedelics, therapy, philosophy, science, and culture. Featuring interviews, lectures, and conversations with leading figures in psychedelic research and culture as well as those who are new to the space and just starting to articulate their public voice, this podcast is a pioneering source of diverse information and perspectives. The Entheogenic Evolution Podcast is one of the longest running podcasts on psychedelics, having been first established in 2008, and has been a leading source of information about 5-MeO-DMT since its inception. Given the long history of the podcast, guests and topics serve as indicators of where psychedelic culture is changing and growing as psychedelics become more accepted in the mainstream. In addition to interviews and talks, host, Martin Ball, also shares selections from his many audiobooks, recordings from events and conferences he's organized, and shares his own original music at the conclusion of each episode and his original art for cover images. You can support this podcast by joining up as a contributing member at Patreon.com/martinwball. Martin is also available for individual consultations, mentorship, and integration work for clients in need of reflection and support. His original books are available in paperback, ebook, and audiobooks, and focus on nonduality and 5-MeO-DMT.

My guest this week is venerated elder in the psychedelic community, Dr. Richard Louis Miller, who joins me to discuss his newest book, The Adverse Effects and Therapeutic Potential of Psychedelic Medicines - A Guide to the Risks and Rewards of Using Psychedelics in Therapy. The fundamental premise of the book is that those who promote use of psychedelics for therapy need to have honest accounting of not just the benefits, but also the risks, when using these powerful tools, and avoid painting overly-rosey pictures that are misleading and uninformed. We talk all about it and much more.

Also included is a reminder about my upcoming webinar on 5-MeO-DMT Integration as well as my training course with Mindscape Institute. The free webinar is on July 15th and class starts on Sept 9. You can register for the free event at www.martinball.net/webinar

This week I'm joined by Suzi Kalypso, founder of The Temple of Eden in southern California, which she started 5 years ago as a bufo (5-MeO-DMT) church, but has since expanded into a multi-sacrament entheogenic church and also provides facilitation training, integration, and community events and support. In this lengthy interview we learn of her struggles with addiction and her journey into psychedelic medicines as well as the move from being a minimally-trained "pipe lighter" (a common deficiency in the 5-MeO-DMT world) to being an ethically-minded priestess who focuses on her budding community in LA and beyond. Learn more about the Temple of Eden here.

Also in this episode I have a brief interview with Sarah Knapik of Altar of the Heart Church in support of my upcoming 5-MeO-DMT Integration Specialist Training course with Mindscape Institute, and additionally I announce an upcoming free Zoom webinar about my course for all who are interested in learning more about integration with 5-MeO-DMT and what the course covers.
