Episode Details

Are we healing… or just managing our pain?

In Part 2 of Episode 118, Kiran, Leela, and Cami continue exploring how substances and awakening often intertwine on the spiritual path.

Many seekers reach for psychedelics, prescriptions, or supplements hoping for relief. However, what if the real medicine lies beyond the substance itself? This episode invites you to look deeper — beneath the control, the craving, and the quiet deprivation driving your search for peace.

Through grounded stories and decades of inner work, Kiran and her co-hosts reveal how chasing healing through substances can reinforce the very patterns we’re trying to escape.

They also share how awareness, presence, and willingness to feel discomfort open a more stable path to transformation.

In this conversation:

Why deprivation habits often lead to addiction and control
The fine line between using support and relying on a crutch
How to meet fear and unworthiness without substances
Why presence is the truest form of medicine

By slowing down, listening within, and embracing what’s real, you discover that true freedom doesn’t come from substances — it comes from being fully alive in this moment.
