Soulocast #1 - Seeking Brotherhood and Tales of Plant Medicine Ceremonies

Greetings great world! In this first Soulocast I share parts of my recent experience to the Ice and Iron Men's Retreat in Vermont. This retreat was an epic time filled with brotherhood, healthy lifestyle practices, nature excursions into Appalachia, powerful breathwork sessions, uncontrollable laughter, uncomfortable situations leading to growth, and profound experiences sitting with Earth Medicines! I am super stoked to share this with the world!

In this episode I dive into what Soul Mountain is and what Soul means to me. Our Soul can be interpreted in every which way, this is one aspect of what it means to me. What does Soul mean to you?

I arrived in Vermont with 15 other men who were complete strangers and after a week I left with 15 brothers I know will be there for me as I adventure through the rest of my life. I talk about my quest for brotherhood and the importance of brotherhood in todays society and why its needed. To have brothers, I must first be a brother.

I express my experiences sitting with some powerful Earth Medicines such as Cannabis and Mushrooms and the lessons that came through. I share how I am stepping away from Cannabis for a while to recalibrate my relationship with this deeply profound plant and why I feel called to do so.

Life is such a journey and to share these experiences with the world is intimate and vulnerable for me. I hope that you enjoy the message and find presence in your breath.

I am deeply grateful for all that listen and encourage you to reach out to share your thoughts with me and to share this with a friend if it feels right.

Our Soul is our highest potential and together we will find our way home. Lets climb mountains and conquer our minds in the process!

So much love and gratitude - Ryan Witherspoon
