In this powerful conversation, Atira Tan shares her deeply personal and transformational journey—from early psychedelic experiences where she first connected with the divine within, to her decades of work creating trauma-informed spaces for healing and empowerment.

We explore the many layers of trauma and why embodiment and aligned action are at the heart of true transformation. Atira opens up about the wisdom of slowing down, the importance of honoring the body’s pace, and how cultural differences shape our relationship with rest and devotion.

Together, we dive into:

  • Atira’s early experiences with psychedelics and connecting with the divine
  • The key role of embodiment and action in personal transformation
  • Lessons from her trauma-informed temple and somatic plant medicine work
  • Why honoring the body’s pace and process leads to deeper healing
  • How other parts of the world resist the rush of modern life—and what we can learn from them
  • The meaning of Karma Yoga, devotion, and connection to the earth
  • Red flags to look for in spiritual and plant medicine spaces

This conversation will leave you feeling inspired to slow down, connect to your body, and walk the path of transformation with presence and devotion.
