Hi all… hope I can post this here.

As a child, maybe 4yrs old, I found white mushrooms growing in my front yard. Utah, USA. I was so excited over such a find that I ate some and shared the rest with my neighborhood friends then went inside and told my mother about the find. After a quick call to poison control and a tall glass of something, ipecac, I was quickly emptying the contents of my stomach into the neighbors yard, along with all the friends I had shared with. This happened over 30yrs ago and to say I feared ALL mushrooms is an understatement, if it wasn’t hidden in my food, I was picking them out.

When I was pregnant with my 2nd, my craving was for fresh white mushrooms dipped in ranch dressing… no I didn’t give into that craving.

After I turned 40, my husband asked me to take a journey with him… we have since gone on many together, we use PE and GT, but they have to be in pill form and I get the worst stomach aches usually at the end of the journey.

The last 2, I did with great intent. I spoke to my parts and I assured them this was safe and this is what I wanted, I also spoke to the mushrooms and gave them permission to heal this part of me. With that in mind, the last journey went great and I didn’t have any stomach issues.

This. This is why I am taking the Ecology & the Cultivation classes. I do plan to add journey work class later. I love what I’ve learned and want to learn so much more.
