When, if you've ever met a medicine person or a shaman or a psychic, et cetera, even in the Christian space, somebody who operates in the prophetic, what makes that person not seem insane is their ability to delineate what you can handle versus what you can't handle.

There are conversations that I can have with a handful of people that there's no way I could have those conversations with the everyday person because their brain would literally melt.

Understanding who can handle what and understanding what the average person can perceive objectively versus what you're perceiving is incredibly important.

And unfortunately, many people with diagnosed schizophrenia, they can't find that delineation anymore.

That delineation also often goes away when we're talking about psychedelics, which is why I think so many people end up being irrevocably harmed by psychedelics because nobody was pre-screening for who was not a good fit for this.

And I do want to very much thank Dr. Dave Rabin for the work that he does because I believe he's really at the forefront of trying to create a very clear protocol and screening process so that the people I'm talking about are never subjected to psychedelic therapy in the first place.

I know he has a book coming out soon and he's going to join us, I think, in September.

So maybe we can bring up this conversation topic again.

But one of the things we talked about on his show was how important it is for people with personality disorders to not engage in this work.

If it's already challenging to align your awareness or your perception with the objective record, psychedelics are a terrible fit for you.

If you're somebody who has a, it's the best way to say this.

I have, this is the best way to say this.

I have a saying that I use all the time in my somatic movement practitioner certification and in break method.

And it is that you can seek truth or you can seek healing, but you can't seek both at the same time.
