A documentary exploring our connection to nature and sacred plant medicine. Awakening the Soul takes the audience through a visionary journey exploring the wisdom teachings, guidance, integration, psychology and integrity required to steward such a powerful experience. This cinematic journey is directed by Samuel Austin, partly narrated by Terrence Mckenna and Alan Watts, and includes beautiful medicine music from Danit and Peia.

Synopsis
Our civilization is at a crossroads.
With the threat of self-extinction looming and mental health issues surging, it
begs the question, what are we overlooking?
Awakening the Soul is a journey
into the heart of Nature. Follow Samuel and Kash Khan as they dive into the Hero’s journey Ayahuasca takes one through and explore how this ancient brew could be an antidote to a
global spiritual sickness. The documentary seeks to unravel questions such as:

— How does Ayahuasca and plant medicine differ from western medicine?
— Why is Ayahuasca so profoundly effective at healing root causes of trauma, addiction and mental health issues?
— Why is preparation and integration of plant medicine so important?
— What is the importance of our relationship to these plants and the natural world?
— How is the indigenous shamanic perspective and approach to illness different?
— How does Ayahuasca help heal trauma and why is that so life-changing?
— How important is respect and integrity around Ayahuasca and the indigenous stewarding cultures?
