A potent alchemizer of grief

I lost both my parents within two years. I had purchased Soul Cybin’s Ceremonial Chocolates and kept them in the freezer until I felt guided to take one…on a rainy and cold spring equinox, I looked up the Soul Cybin ceremonial guide, grabbed a chocolate from the freezer, and stomped off into the woods, feeling terrible about everything. I found my tree friend Grandmother Pine and sat at her base to eat my chocolate. It was unexpectedly delicious.
Within about 20 minutes, I felt an overpowering presence seemingly ejecting grief from my body. I cried more than I can ever remember crying. After a period of time, I laid back against Grandmother Pine, and the other mushroom teachers came to me one by one, showing me that it’s okay to be angry and sad, and that behind the veil of grief is an endless summer, pure presence, and pure peace.
This ceremony experience was incredibly intense, from start to finish. The mushrooms taught me how to access still presence in my mind and brain stem/spinal cord, to relax into that space of pure presence behind the veil. I was able to even teach the technique to my partner! Life hasn’t been perfect since then, but I’ve leveled up into a greater experience of surrender, compassion for myself and others, and gratitude for each moment I live and breathe. The people at Soul Cybin are doing God’s work. Thank you.
