I think that's a great test to live your life by, because it's about harm reduction, it's about fulfillment and joy and those types of things as well.
Imagine feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders, only to find solace in the embrace of nature. That's the heart of Benton Carroll's story in this episode of 'Nature Untold'. Hosted by Emily Holland, Benton opens up about his early life goals of reducing harm and preparing for his own mortality. He shares candidly about his physical dependence on alcohol and the societal pressures to be less emotional and achieve more.
This conversation isn't just about addiction; it's about finding a sense of self-worth without needing external validation and learning to accept mistakes rather than hide them. Benton reflects on how isolation sometimes served as a self-preservation tactic and the importance of setting boundaries. He also discusses the pivotal moment when he began questioning his relationship with alcohol, leading him to explore psychedelic therapeutic modalities.
Benton's journey highlights the significance of asking for help and letting go of childhood narratives that no longer serve us. He emphasizes the therapeutic benefits of psychedelics like ayahuasca, while also stressing the need for qualified therapists and safety protocols. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of how connecting with nature can lead to profound healing and personal growth. Benton’s story is a testament to the power of nature in fostering a life of less harm and greater joy.
