“For most of my life, I felt anxious about many situations. I hid it well most of the time, but it often left me feeling stuck and unable to move forward, followed by periods of depression that became longer as I got older. For many years, I smoked tobacco obsessively to mask the discomfort.

I tried many therapies to alleviate those feelings. I also travelled to the Peruvian Amazon for Ayahuasca, to the Peruvian Andes for San Pedro, attended magic mushroom ceremonies and explored many other inward journeys with shamans and guides.

Out of all the therapists and spiritual people I encountered, Veronica was the only one who was able to consistently show me the way by challenging my identification with the mind and ego.

It took some undoing and some short, sharp wake-ups, and it remains an ongoing process of self-practice and observation.”
