Psychedelic Therapy, Women’s Wellness, and the Power of Nature with Heather Lee

In this episode of Resilience Redefined, Michael sits down with Heather Lee, a psychotherapist and expert in mind-body medicine. Heather shares her journey into therapy, the exploration of non-ordinary states of consciousness, and the role of psychedelics in healing and transformation.

We dive into the importance of integrating psychedelic experiences, the rise of feminine energy in the current psychedelic renaissance, and the concept of “saging” as a new rite of passage for women in their sixties and seventies. Heather also highlights how nature immersion, microdosing, and the rewiring potential of psychedelics are changing the landscape of mental health.

Key Takeaways:

• Psychedelics as tools for psycho-spiritual healing and trauma recovery

• The importance of integration for lasting transformation

• “Saging” as a powerful new stage of life for older women

• Nature immersion as a healing practice

• Microdosing’s benefits for brain health and cognitive function

Sound Bites:
