Exploring Psychedelics Meditation & Spirituality for YOUR Well-Being | Neil Markey | SCGP: 151
On the Self-Care Goddess Podcast episode #151, Neil Markey, founder of Beckley Retreats, shares insights on the integration of psychedelics, meditation, and spirituality for personal growth and healing. He reflects on his journey from military service and battling PTSD to discovering the transformative power of mindfulness and psychedelic experiences. Beckley Retreats, operating in Jamaica and the Netherlands, focuses on self-development rather than medical treatment, targeting professionals seeking deeper connection and personal transformation.
