Robin Daly's 'Yes to Life Show' takes a deep dive into the world of cancer, addressing some of the most pressing questions about this pervasive illness. In this episode, Robin chats with Anne Hamilton, a trailblazer in the field of integrative oncology, who shares her journey from cancer diagnosis to founding a non-profit dedicated to providing safe access to psychedelics for cancer survivors.
Anne opens up about her own battle with stage 3c breast cancer and the transformative role psychedelics played in her healing process. With a legal background and personal experience, she is uniquely positioned to discuss the benefits and challenges of integrating psychedelics into cancer care. The conversation explores the spiritual dimension of serious illness and the potential of psilocybin to offer profound healing.
Anne describes the retreats she organises, designed to provide a safe environment for survivors to explore these therapies. These retreats include medical screenings, group preparation sessions, and somatic healing practices like Qigong and narrative therapy. The aim is to help participants reconnect with their bodies and find peace in their journey.
Robin and Anne discuss the broader implications of using psychedelics in cancer care and how they can help survivors navigate the emotional and spiritual challenges that come with a diagnosis. With humour and honesty, they tackle the stigma around psychedelics and highlight their potential as a powerful tool for healing. If you're curious about how psychedelics might fit into cancer treatment, or just looking for a fresh perspective on healing, this episode is a must-listen.
