What an amazing experience!!!

Revisado: 01-30-25

This is truly a movie inside your mind—complete with music, voices, emotion, and a ton of adventure. I’m seriously considering spending the 1 credit for the dramatized third installment just because I love this version so much. The elfish music that plays from time to time? Chef’s kiss.

A Journey Through Healing

Revisado: 12-18-23

"Coming Full Circle" by Shannon Duncan is an insightful book that blends personal memoir with a guide on using psychedelics for healing trauma. The book is divided into three parts, starting with a discussion on various psychedelics like Ketamine, LSD, MDMA, and psilocybin mushrooms, examining their recreational, expansive, and medicinal uses. The second part delves into the healing process, where Duncan shares his experiences and practical tools for trauma resolution. The final part is a deeply personal account of Duncan's journey, detailing his confrontation with and understanding of his traumas.
Duncan's narration in the audiobook version adds depth, with his calm voice enhancing the memoir sections. He emphasizes the need for professional guidance in therapeutic psychedelic use, advocating for personal responsibility and informed decision-making. The book addresses sensitive topics such as child abuse and bullying, requiring reader discretion.
However, the book also raises concerns. Duncan's discussion of consuming psychedelics in combinations, particularly his admission of taking high doses, may not set the best example, especially for novices. His mention of taking 8 mg of mushrooms, significantly higher than the accepted 3 mg, brings up the issue of dosage safety and potential tolerance.
This book, while accessible to non-experts, is not a substitute for professional medical advice. It appeals to a broad audience, including trauma survivors, mental health professionals, and students in psychology and psychiatry, offering insights into the complex field of psychedelic therapy. Overall, the book earns a 4 out of 5-star rating. While it effectively serves as a memoir and guide, the intertwining of these aspects sometimes blurs the line between Duncan's personal experiences and professional advice. The book's dual nature makes it educational yet cautionary for those considering psychedelics for healing.

This is a different perspective on culture

Revisado: 03-31-22

I really appreciate this fresh perspective on what makes a person successful. While i really like the stories and while it is clear that the factors identified for sucess are part of each story the book feels like ita trying too hard to boil everything down to one or two factors for someones rise to sucess.

great writing and performance by Warren Farrel

Revisado: 10-13-18

I really enjoyed Dr Farrells writings and findings on how children, boys especially need their fathers to help them overcome the traps of modern society and avoid livingmeaning deprived lives. He is ofcourse very liberal and that seeps through his writing but i only found myself screaming at the car radio a couple of times while listening to this book.
John Gray's part of the book should be separated into a different book called 'John Gray kills your fun' or 'Stop having so much fun!' by John Gray.
If this book had only the part read by dr Farrell i would have given it 5 stars.

The morality and intuitive thinking's how to book

Revisado: 09-08-18

I loved the begining of it but i disliked the last 2 chapters which i think are veey subjective and you can feel Professor Hadit's liberal elephant leaning left. For example the part where he talks about levels of led and corelates that with increase levels of crime. The whole time i heard that i could think of nothing but his "correlation does not mean causation" chant i saw on one of his lectures on youtube.
