DMT as a tool to make changes in your mind

Migrated topic.
Isn't it that one VERY point of ethnobotanicals ?
If you are doing spice for access some information within yourself - and everything is within oneself - and ask for some behavior features or whatever to change, you are doing some internal programming which is another way to say HEALING but not only.
 
How would you go about using it in that way?

I tried one way. I was in complete darkness and wore ear plugs. Before I smoked, I took a few deep breaths and repeated the intention for the "trip" an when I felt calm and ready I smoked. I would say I did find myself extremely peaceful after, but not really sure what effects I could report.
 
I never went into a journey to change anything as per say, but more to find out what the journey has to offer.

What I did find though is that it changed me in very subtle ways, over a period of time.
 
Perhaps you should try pharmahuasca. The experience is much longer and the insights are easier to grasp and retain. Every pharmahuasca (oral DMT with MAOI) trip that I have ever had was filled with cosmic or personal or social epiphanies. Sometimes I just sit there with my mouth wide open as wisdom is literally downloaded into my head. I don't how to explain it but it seems like information is somehow channeled to me. For instance, I was reading Plato a few weeks back and he was talking about the Forms and Ideals. I didn't fully understand the concepts in the text and I soon forgot about it. On a recent trip, the basic structure of Plato's ideas appeared in my head and then they were soon filled in with a complete and thorough understanding. It was like a Plato balloon inflated in my head and it was filled with previously unknown information. I have now have a deep and full appreciation for those platonic ideas without picking up a book.

When that DMT wave hits me and it is filled with knowledge. I love it. During a pharm trip with a high enough dose and some caapi, I can expect at least five or six waves with at least two monstrous ones that completely alter my perspective on life.
 
It can change your behavior in amazing ways whether or not you want it to. But if your trying to change specific behaviors entheogens are definitely the right tools to open up some new imprinting opportunities. And yeah longer experiences with Aya, pharma, mushrooms, ect. can be very beneficial keys to big psychological changes. These things really are a miracle!

A wise man once said
new behavior = behavioral change + meta-programming substance

More than I'll ever probably realise, but the most noticable in my day to day life in that I'm using less and less other substances all the time. I didn't even want to give them up, I just did. I even gave up smoking almost without realising :) But it's not just consumption, I just seem to want less in general, but also have a better idea of what to do with my life, as a couple of years ago, I was absolutely clueless :)

The biggest change is that I now see the world, not for what it really is but for what it should be. I'm slower to judge but faster to disagree, but at the same time humility has zoomed off the top of the chart. I no longer feel as much of a need to prove myself and on more focussed on who I want to be.

But I do often wonder if DMT could have built my nice wind farm if psilocybin hadn't brought the recking ball to my nuclear plant :)
 
I think with regular practice major changes can occur. On a very basic level i feel more at ease with daily life and have a better sense of what is genuinely important in my life. I think many subtle things have changed in my mind all for the better as far as i can tell. It can become a great piece of your personal quest for understanding of yourself and the world around.

This is one of the cornerstones in the life of a dreamer. We are focusing on what could be, and then dream it into existence.

(The Nexus is getting filled with great wisdom lately. I wonder what's Antrocles doing in the backyard.)

Sure IMO I would go deep inside without any outer stimulation, letting the inner stimulation grow more and more.
I sometimes don't ask nothing, but it just happened that I realize what is superficial in my life.
As Soulfood, you may find what you don't need first, to later realize what you're really up to.
I found that diversity of medecine is greatly beneficial to me.
 
One thing about spice & SWIM is, it's quite forceful in making him understand some of his bad thought patterns and actions. Kinda like "STOP XYZ" at the beginning of the blastoff, leaving him the rest of the session to ponder the item at hand.

DMT caused ,a deep transformation of my personality´. Thank You for Your attention.
 
Since I started using psychedelics as tools... I have noticed changes in myself that I have not consciously changed myself.

I have become a better person. This is a fact.

I can handle stress and bad situations easier, don't worry as much, live for the moment, and treat other people with respect and compassion.

It is like the spice is subconsciously affecting my soul and healing all the damage that has been done by growing up in such a world!


As I said in another thread though, it has made it harder for me to relate to women. I used to just go for any girl I thought was hot, now I can't put up with them. I want to find a chill girl who is down! A soul mate so to speak...

In my current position I couldnt even imagine the spice affecting someone negatively, granted they respected it enough.



On the other hand I can see how it wouldn't work for everyone. My friend wanted to give some to his brother because his brother has drug problems and he thought it might help.

No joke his brothers words were "Theres no way a pile that small is gonna do anything to me. Just weigh me out point one!"

After that comment I just had to decide perhaps the spice is not the best substance to instigate change in everyone. If he would have done that god knows what would have happened lol.
 
Although I do not have much experience with the molecule (I'm just beginning my explorations with that one), I have used most other psychs as a tool for emotional/spiritual/mental growth. I like to think of it as my life reset button, I have never been one to use frequently, for me it's more of an every six months or so sort of thing. When I find myself swamped with negative thoughts, when conditioning has led me astray and I'm not listening to my true self, I find it appropriate to partake.
This usually involves me taking a dose and letting these substances remind me whats good in life, and what the next step is. By using I can evaluate were I'm at, figure out what I've been doing that isn't working and move on from there. In my experience mushies will especially show me what areas I've been lacking in, sometimes it can be hard to experience their scolding, but I find it very therapeutic. I like to use the allegory that I'm going to see my parents, they're going to discipline me, but it's out of their love. They've really been a kick start to in furthering my emotional IQ, I'm very grateful for all of my experiences.
