Lee Davy's '1000 Days Sober Podcast' takes a bold look at the world of plant medicine and alcohol, challenging listeners to reconsider what it means to truly live an alcohol-free life. In this episode, Lee explores the intriguing idea that substances like ayahuasca might just be another form of escape, much like alcohol. Drawing on insights from his mentor Preston Smiles, Lee questions whether people are swapping one illusion for another in their quest for relief and transformation.
Lee shares a fascinating story about a young man he coached who tried various drugs, including ayahuasca and alcohol, with the intention of discovering their benefits. This tale serves as a springboard for deeper reflection on how intention plays a crucial role in substance use. Are you reaching for ayahuasca or alcohol from a place of self-awareness or out of fear and desperation?
Through personal anecdotes and reflections, Lee emphasises that it's not the substance itself but the state you're in when you choose it that matters. He encourages listeners to examine their motivations and to question whether they're using substances as tools for genuine self-discovery or as a means to avoid confronting deeper issues.
The episode is a call to reflect on your relationship with substances and to consider if you're truly living from a place of self-energy or if you're being led by parts that seek shortcuts. With a mix of humour and sincerity, Lee invites you to think critically about your choices and to strive towards living a self-led life.
If you're curious about how plant medicine compares to alcohol in terms of intention and effect, this episode is definitely worth a listen.
