Pełna historia
At an ayahuasca retreat, Michel describes a powerful, profound first experience. Music and the sound of leaves trigger waves of sensations, colours and emotions. He describes stepping into those waves, then stepping out again.
At the retreat’s first sharing circle, Michel searches for words for this first encounter with ayahuasca. Power and depth stand out to him. He describes following inner paths, like roads opening onto other scenes. People he knows appear there in situations that seem impossible to him.
Time becomes an important part of his experience. He feels that he belongs within it, floats into it, then returns. He acknowledges that the idea is very broad and difficult to explain.
Sounds accompany those movements. Music, then the leaves used during the ceremony, seem to open waves of sensation. Colours and emotions follow one another. He also notices moving patterns. In that state, he says he feels very comfortable and does not want a second dose.
The second part of the night includes many trips to the toilet. Yet Michel describes finding a rhythm again when he returns. The experience feels enjoyable and full of emotions to take in. It is with that sense of depth, movement and sensation that he describes his first night.
