Sex and drugs are two of the most powerful tools we can use to alter our consciousness. Separately, they hold the power of transformation and healing. Because of this, they’re hotly-debated, steeped in stigmas and assumptions, and heavily regulated. So if sex and psychedelics can shake up the status quo on their own, what happens when we combine them? How can we do so with intention?

Exercise:

What’s your ideal set and setting? 

If you’re exploring sex and psychedelics with a partner, do you and the other person have compatible intentions? 

Have you explicitly communicated what your intentions are?

Shane Heath (@somanypossibilities) is MUD\WTR's founder & CEO. He's also my boss. So, I'd like to take a moment to talk about his biceps. They're like pythons, or wet rope. And lately he's been looking extra youthful, like a baby. A super-jacked baby with vision. I think it's because of his new hyperbaric chamber, which we discuss in this episode. It almost killed him because he didn't read the directions before climbing inside. We talk about that too. Please tell Shane how much you loved this episode so I can keep my job.—Kyle

Chris Keener is one of my favorite creative collaborators in the whole wild world. He’s the head of MUD\FILMS, and I get to write scripts with him by day, then philosophize with him by night: To be, or not to be? Are we alone in the universe? Vanilla or chocolate milkshake at In-n-Out? He's a breathwork coach and every Wednesday leads our team through a lil' guided breathwork session. A master storyteller, Chris has worked with National Geographic, Discovery Channel, ESPN and the Travel Channel. He produced the five-part docuseries We Speak Dance for Netflix. But now MUD\WTR gets all of his attention, which we are all very happy about.

Ben Horton (@benhortonphoto) has based his career on being able to go places that other people either cannot—or don’t want to—go. From thousands of feet underwater to the most remote regions in the arctic, Ben’s passion is to use photography as a means to inspire people to take stewardship of the planet. Ben started his career with National Geographic by telling the story of the sharks of Cocos Island. He traced the illegal fishing industry from Costa Rica to China, and as a result of his work helped to increase the park boundaries and protection of two of Costa Rica’s national parks. He was awarded the National Geographic Society’s first-ever Young Explorer Grant for his work, and he has since moved on to receive a number of other National Geographic grants and assignments, and recently starred in a documentary for National Geographic featuring his work in Thailand. Ben is based in Southern California, where he works primarily on adventure campaigns.
