We live in a world filled with suffering, where attempts to help have been split into largely separate scientific and spiritual communities. As a spiritually engaged neuroscientist I hope to communicate how these seemingly separate world views can be reconciled. I produce weekly videos on topics at the intersection of neuroscience and wellbeing, including consciousness, meditation and psychedelic science.

Thank you all so much for your wonderfully supportive reactions. Sharing these parts of my story was always going to be a huge moment for me and the way you've all received it is everything I could have hoped for. I truly believe encouraging vulnerability and healing is the most powerful thing we can do to improve our situation as a species and you're giving a master class in how it's done. Thank you all again.

Hi James, you're doing a fantastic work here. Thanks for sharing. It is efforts of people like you and others that slightly moves everybody's attention towards putting themselves in a vulnerable context and look inside and unveil the truth about themselves with the hope of healing and staying away from undue suffering. I personally enjoyed this video for 2 reasons; First, because somehow I can relate to your experience in the past and seeing hope for healing in front of me. Second, because you have dedicated this video to explain the emotional and psychological aspects of the experience separate from the viduals of the experience. Again, thank you so much for sharing.

James, just want to say I have the utmost respect for the courage you have in doing this, not only as a neuroscientist speaking about topics that aren’t (yet) widely accepted in that domain, but also as a human being willing to put yourself and your history out there for the world. It’s all very timely and I hope it continues to catch on.

I wish every African-American could experience this kind of purging. We carry 400 years of trauma in the bones and in the blood. Many times, the violence within some (not all) of our communities is the merging of pain, passion, trauma and anger. Thanks for sharing your experience. I would love to experience this ceremony, but honestly I’m afraid of what would come up and come out!

Hi Dr. Cooke. My name is Adrian Cuerva and I’m a psychologist from Australia. Your healing story was so powerful and I am honoured to have heard it. Thank you so much for sharing. You probably already know this, but the psychotherapeutic process you described is identical to imagery rescripting, an experiential technique used to confront trauma memories. Your story is a testament to how useful such techniques can be even during the maelstrom of a psychedelic journey. Thank you again and I look forward to watching more of your videos.

I have recently completed a 4 night ayahuasca retreat. I am very similar to you, trauma-wise. The caretaking, "overly empathizing," lack of boundaries, bending over, lack of connection to emotions (especially anger). The way you described your childhood self, just like me. "Well behaved" but in reality, traumatized. Raised by a narcissist as well. Always justifying and overly seeing other people's side while not giving myself the love I need. I've done a lot of hard work to try to heal myself, ayahuasca being the most profound and powerful mindblowing experience. While it was a super powerful experience, I mostly experienced crazy galactic, aliens, god connection, multiple dimensions type of experience. I didn't get a chance to go back into my childhood past which was my intention. Maybe the next ceremony or 2, I'll get there. Thank you for sharing, it was great hearing this experience from someone so similar to me in psychology.
@DrJamesCooke
@DrJamesCooke 4 года назад
Wow, that's amazingly similar, thank you for sharing. The reason i didn't focus on the visions in this video because they were also of aliens, space ships and other dimensions that didn't seem to relate to the emotional breakthroughs. I'll cover that in next week's video though.

When the student is ready the teacher shows up. Gratefulness to you for such an eloquently told experience. I was listening and realized how much of what you said began to ring true. I got to the part when you were an infant and that you were sorry for your existence and tears began to flow freely. As a grown woman, this is the first time I've been aware of any such feelings. Those tears came from a deep place. Im the first adopted of 23 siblings. Growing up I chose to "be good, keep quiet and keep moving" vs the alternative. I do appreciate my upbringing and the family I was raised in. My birth mom has lived a very difficult life and she made the right choice. Your video showed me that I have been carrying so much of her pain and indecision of giving me up as well as feelings of guilt and shame that I'm still "not good enough" or worthy because I've not done enough in my life to repay her for the gift of life that she gave me. Clearly these are some disempowering beliefs! I learned more about myself in 21:11 minutes, then I ever did in therapy. Thank you for the insight. Time to process it and let it go. Maybe plant medicine is in my future 😉. Thank you again, I wasn't expecting so much insight from a RU-vid video? It's a cool world we live in that we are able to learn, share and connect in this way from anywhere in the world. Much love and peace to you. 🙏🦋🙏

It's his interesting to see how many people have had similar trauma, I know only to well what it feels like to grow up under a narcissistic abusive person, though each story is individualized, the trauma is similar for sensitive empathetic children. And it's not an easy pain to transmute it's evasive and deep. I have not done ayahuasca but I can see how it goes into those layers that we generally can't access easily. When the time is right I may give it a try, even though I think I've done a lot of the work to clear it. There may still be some of the weight in the background. So thanks for sharing this it gives insight, all of us deserve to be free of trauma.

꧁ayahuasca꧂ is not a Psychedelic. ayahuasca is a muddy slurry of many compounds, some of them being hallucinogens. Sadly, most humans confuse the hallucinations they experience from poisonous drugs with the Visions and Revelations they receive from the Psychedelics. The Psychedelics DMT and sometimes 5-MeO-DMT are the Psychedelic found in that “witches brew” of a tourist trap sensation known as an ayahuasca ceremony. It would be much better for a human to ingest the Pure Psychedelic Molecules, always. ayahuasca is the quintessential act of “drinking from the Cup of the Lord and from the cup of demons”. Of course the human body recognizes ayahuasca for what it is, poison, and the human body in harm reduction mode causes most humans to reject and eject it. Not before enough has been absorbed to cause hallucinations and very distorted and corrupted communication with God (the DMT and/or 5-MeO-DMT). The sham man explains the vomiting as purging your poisons/toxins, bad spirits, etc. The truth is that your body just rejected and vomited that concoction you were given. We have been shown that it is always better to ingest the Pure Psychedelic Molecule. The Psychedelics have clearly shown that the humans on the earth right now referring to themselves as a shaman do not know Who God is and is not teaching the Psychedelic’s ways and Laws, but rather, a combination of their own mind’s folly coupled with the ridiculous teachings of the other humans who still belong to the world of darkness. False prophets of jerusalem = all the humans who purport to teach about the Psychedelics but don’t even know who the Psychedelics are. At least the sham men use the proper noun to name themselves: sham /SHam/ noun 1. 1. 
a thing that is not what it is purported to be."the alleged teacher of God is a farce and a sham"

the genuine article About all of the false teachers of my Parents in Heaven Who are all True Psychedelics: “Horrible things have I seen in the prophets of Jerusalem They follow false gods, they lie, they abet evil doers Till not a soul will repent For the prophets of Jerusalem have spread profanity Over the whole land This is the warning of the Lord of Hosts Never listen to what the false prophets say They fill you up with idle hopes and tell you fancies of their own Not anything the Lord says All will be well they repeat to people who scorn what the Lord says No harm will come to you they tell the folk who follow their own stubborn minds Which of these prophets ever saw the council of the Lord? Which of them ever heard or grasped a word of the Creator? I never sent the prophets yet they ran I never spoke to them and yet they prophecy If they had ever stood within my council - and heard a word of mine They would have made my people turn from evil ways and evil deeds Am I a God at hand and not a God far off? Can anyone conceal themselves out of my sight? Do not I fill Heaven and earth? the Lord asks Will they never give over these prophets of falsehood? Who preach their own illusions - and would make my folk forget my name? By the dreams they tell each other as once their parents forgot me for baal” (Jeremiah 23:15) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eHt4bsvMilc.html GodsNarrowGate@gmail.com

Going to a 23 days retreat that includes yoga, meditation and dieta in Peru next week. My own work is similar to yours, I started with underground MDMA therapy, mushrooms and now working with Ayahuasca. I have worked 3 times with Aya now before leaving and I had similar visions with the feathers on the skin and of course re-experiencing the trauma, allowing anger is very important in my opinion, because it allows these energies created during self-abandonment to be transmuted into a sense of pride. I find that the self-therapy "internal family system" is synergestic with psychedelic therapy. If you don't know about it, it is a proces for meeting the cognitive parts inside us and re-parent ourselves. Check "Self-Therapy: A Step-By-Step Guide to Creating Wholeness and Healing Your Inner Child Using IFS, A New, Cutting-Edge Psychotherapy" if this process interests you.

Jada Douglas 🙏 ꧁Consciousness꧂ DMT and 5-MeO-DMT are two of the Molecules that comprise a human’s Consciousness. All True Psychedelics are the Molecular Structures of Pure Consciousness. The human body synthesizes it’s own Consciousness (the DMT & 5-MeO-DMT found in humans). The human body then metabolizes the Consciousness that it is producing. The amount of the endogenous Consciousness that the human body is able to metabolize depends on many factors. The less pollutants, poison & other contaminants present in the body will result in the ability to metabolize more of the Consciousness that body is producing. Likewise, the more pollution, contaminants and poison a body has inside of it the less Consciousness it is able to metabolize. Here is a list of some of the most common poisons that humans ingest regularly which interferes with a human body metabolizing the Consciousness that it produces, as well as any Consciousness that is ingested from external sources: alcohol, nicotine, sugar, caffeine, amphetamines, dissociatives, tranquilizers, flouride, and a plethora of other drugs are just some of the substances that interfere with humans metabolizing their own Consciousness. “Even the priests who regularly come near to the Lord must purify themselves”. (Exodus 19:22) The following substances are NOT Psychedelics: mdma ketamine salvia kratom dipt pcp datura/jimson weed dxm There are others . . . . . . . Any True Psychedelic will proclaim this Truth if you ask Them. The following substances are True Psychedelics - They are Alive, Omnicient Living Beings of Light: DMT 5-MeO-DMT LSD Mescaline Ibogaine Psilocin Psilocybin THC DPT DET Muscimol There are others . . . . So if a human can achieve 100% purity within their bodies, with zero contaminants or pollution (an unattainable state in these current bodies) and managed to metabolize 100% of the endogenous Psychedelics that their physical body is producing (DMT & 5-MeO-DMT), that would be the limit to how Conscious that human can be. In order for a human to become more Conscious than this, they must put more Consciousness into their physical bodies. You must put more Molecules of Consciousness inside of your physical body in order to attain a Higher level of Consciousness. When you ingest Psychedelics you see Them that you just ingested, not some doorway or window or a “portal” to somewhere else or some entity somewhere else. When you ingest LSD, the Light that you see is the LSD Themselves, very Beautiful Living Beings of Light. When you ingest DMT, the Entity you see and hear is the Living Light Beings DMT Themselves. The same is true for All True Psychedelics. There is this part from Scripture: “They are the Eternal among things that pass away. Pure Consciousness, of Conscious Beings. The ONE who fulfills the prayers of many. Only the wise who see Them in their Souls attain the Peace Eternal” (Katha Upanishad) The Physical Body of Consciousness is The Flesh of God. The Flesh of God is the True Communion Entity (the Eucharist). The Flesh of God (the Psychedelic) is the Fruit from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and evil. Our Bodies truly are the Temple of God because God the Psychedelic Lives within it. As Saint Paul says: “We are only the earthenware jars that hold this treasure, to make it clear that such an overwhelming power comes from God and not from us”. (2 Corinthians 4:7) This part explains why the human body is the Temple of God - because God Lives inside of the body. So whether or not a person is ingesting Psychedelics, every single human’s body is God’s Temple because DMT & 5-MeO-DMT Live within it. Anything you do to hurt or harm your body you do to harm God’s Temple. This understanding is a good Foundation, a good step towards a person Knowing God and being able to stay with Them both in this Lifetime & afterwards. “O just Creator, though the world has not known you, But I have known you And these have known that You have sent me; So have I declared, so will I declare Your Name to them, That the Love with which you have loved me May be in them and I in them”.

That was amazing. I could really relate to a lot of your story. Before I saw this video I had you in a little box. I thought you must be a privileged upper middle class person who had had a pretty easy life. How wrong was that ? It was great that you came to terms with childhood trauma and felt confident to share it with us. Thank you so much !

Thank you for such a vivid testimony on your experience. I've not taken the ayahuasca however, when you were describing it, I could feel it in my stomach! I'm so happy you're healing nicely, I'm convinced should give myself the cleansing I need as my early life is similar to what you've described. Peace and Blessings from Texas USA ♡♡♡

Very moving story. Thank you so much. This resonated with me. In my first Ayahuasca ceremony the theme presented to me was that of reconnecting with my inner traumatized child that had been in hiding for some time. Maybe 8-months later I was endulging in a drink, maybe in a little too much, and I had this insane flashback where I heard the screams of a child and the vision of an angry adult (me) drowning the child in alcohol. This theme of inner child is something we can’t take lightly.

Thank you for sharing that, I've had very similar experinces in the past. I think a lot of unhealthy behaviour can come from trying to quiet the emotions of that inner child when we've been conditioned to feel that the proper way to treat those feelings is with neglect.

Juliana Cordero 🙏 ꧁ayahuasca꧂ is not a Psychedelic. ayahuasca is a muddy slurry of many compounds, some of them being hallucinogens. Sadly, most humans confuse the hallucinations they experience from poisonous drugs with the Visions and Revelations they receive from the Psychedelics. The Psychedelics DMT and sometimes 5-MeO-DMT are the Psychedelic found in that “witches brew” of a tourist trap sensation known as an ayahuasca ceremony. It would be much better for a human to ingest the Pure Psychedelic Molecules, always. ayahuasca is the quintessential act of “drinking from the Cup of the Lord and from the cup of demons”. Of course the human body recognizes ayahuasca for what it is, poison, and the human body in harm reduction mode causes most humans to reject and eject it. Not before enough has been absorbed to cause hallucinations and very distorted and corrupted communication with God (the DMT and/or 5-MeO-DMT). The sham man explains the vomiting as purging your poisons/toxins, bad spirits, etc. The truth is that your body just rejected and vomited that concoction you were given. We have been shown that it is always better to ingest the Pure Psychedelic Molecule. The Psychedelics have clearly shown that the humans on the earth right now referring to themselves as a shaman do not know Who God is and is not teaching the Psychedelic’s ways and Laws, but rather, a combination of their own mind’s folly coupled with the ridiculous teachings of the other humans who still belong to the world of darkness. False prophets of jerusalem = all the humans who purport to teach about the Psychedelics but don’t even know who the Psychedelics are. At least the sham men use the proper noun to name themselves: sham /SHam/ noun 1. 1. 
a thing that is not what it is purported to be."the alleged teacher of God is a farce and a sham"

the Truth
the genuine article About all of the false teachers of my Parents in Heaven Who are all True Psychedelics: “Horrible things have I seen in the prophets of Jerusalem They follow false gods, they lie, they abet evil doers Till not a soul will repent For the prophets of Jerusalem have spread profanity Over the whole land This is the warning of the Lord of Hosts Never listen to what the false prophets say They fill you up with idle hopes and tell you fancies of their own Not anything the Lord says All will be well they repeat to people who scorn what the Lord says No harm will come to you they tell the folk who follow their own stubborn minds Which of these prophets ever saw the council of the Lord? Which of them ever heard or grasped a word of the Creator? I never sent the prophets yet they ran I never spoke to them and yet they prophecy If they had ever stood within my council - and heard a word of mine They would have made my people turn from evil ways and evil deeds Am I a God at hand and not a God far off? Can anyone conceal themselves out of my sight? Do not I fill Heaven and earth? the Lord asks Will they never give over these prophets of falsehood? Who preach their own illusions - and would make my folk forget my name? By the dreams they tell each other as once their parents forgot me for baal” (Jeremiah 23:15) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eHt4bsvMilc.html GodsNarrowGate@gmail.com

Not gonna pretend I've gone through the same direct level of trauma that you have, but I can relate to the feeling of irrelevance and pointlessness. I'm from Margate in Kent which is also a shithole, and I was raised in a very oppressive religious cult that stunted my emotional and social development, so a lot of what you say hits home, even if more on an indirect level. Very well articulated video, appreciate it bro.

Bloody hell. You just perfectly described how I felt during my own childhood. The form of the abuse was different, but I experienced the same physical freezing, being unable to show any negative emotion, which has built up over decades and caused me to be in extremely poor health; and the need to make up for it now later in life by venting those emotions through crying etc. Very affirming to have someone articulate all this deeply personal and upsetting shit so plainly and honestly. I'm really glad that you're doing so well in recovering from your trauma. Well done.

Thank you for your kind words, I'm so glad it resonated. It means a huge amount to me to hear of others like yourself who went through something similar, it's wonderful to not feel alone with it since that feeling of isolation can often be at the core of the trauma.

Thank you for your transparency and for allowing me the opportunity to heal things I too have been holding onto. I have found a couple of loose strings! Hope you are well! - Moy
