Apparently, ancient Ireland was like the Amazon, with impenetrable forests navigable only by rivers, deep mysticism, and its very own indigenous medicine, the psychedelic Liberty Cap mushrooms. Today on the show, recorded in Southern Ireland, I’m speaking with Darragh Stewart. Darragh is not only a molecular biologist and a passionate advocate of Celtic mysticism and Irish culture, but he's also the co-founder and scientific lead facilitator at Inward Bound, one of the world's first psychedelic retreats in the Netherlands.
Our conversation is particularly special as it comes after an unforgettable adventure in Ireland. Being of Irish ancestry myself and visiting Ireland for the first time, I was fortunate to have Darragh guide me through sacred sites in the southern part of the country. Join us as we share insights from our travels and how we incorporate the essence of festivals into our lives.
During the show, Darragh and I delve into the ancestral pain of the Irish and compare ancient Ireland to the Amazon. We explore the use of Liberty Cap psychedelic mushrooms as indigenous medicine in Ireland, discuss the Irish School of Shamanic Studies, and recount our journey through sacred sites. Lastly, we talk about Darragh’s work with Inward Bound psychedelic retreats.
Dr. Darragh Stewart, a Ph.D. molecular biologist, is a passionate advocate of Celtic mysticism and Irish culture. He is the Co-founder and Scientific Lead Facilitator at Inward Bound, one of the world's first legal pioneering psychedelic retreats in the Netherlands, and is deeply involved in men’s work.
