John is a retired US Army Ranger who served almost 10 years in the military. He returned home with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and eventually found help through a very intense experience with ayahuasca in Peru. We talk about his time in Iraq, the stress of returning home, and the eventual breaking point he reached in Las Vegas.
We talk about a lot more, including gun control, cannabis (marijuana) for stress relief, sleep, and a possible alternative for others with PTSD who turn to alcohol.
John makes gun holsters which can be found at 101holsters.com, and check out his podcast at www.kydexwars.com

Serge believes psychedelic drugs can help induce states of flow, which involve a heightened mind-body connection and the ability to react intelligently completely spontaneously. He also talks about experiencing a shared state of flow with sexual partners.
We go into much detail on both of these topics, and much more. From playing soccer to Conor McGregor and UFC fighting, as well as schizophrenia and living well. Serge points to tryptamines specifically as the psychedelics that can induce states of flow, and so we talk about psilocybin and DMT and the states of perception they offer.
