113. Awakening to Infinite Love with Lisa Cairns: LSD, Banana Fritters & Non-Duality - Pt. 1

In this week’s two-part series, Awakening to Infinite Love: LSD, Non-Duality, and Banana Fritters, Michaela sits down with globally renowned non-dual teacher Lisa Cairns to explore the transformative power of awakening. Lisa delves into the profound insights of non-duality, a direct experience of reality beyond thought, belief, and separation, offering practical wisdom on living an expansive, authentic life. In Part 1, the conversation focuses on how psychedelics like LSD, Ayahuasca, and mushrooms mirror the process of awakening, illuminating the unbinding from the illusion of self, time, and space. Lisa also explains the importance of shadow work, the difference between no-self and no-boundaries selflessness, and how to maintain presence while navigating relationships and challenges. Part 2, available next week, takes a deeply personal turn as Lisa shares her own awakening journey. From years spent in the Australian bush with her partner and non-dual teacher, Roger Costello, to the heartbreak that led her to Bali, Lisa recounts the life-altering experiences that shattered her concept of self and revealed infinite love. This raw, relatable conversation is an invitation to step beyond the illusions of the mind, question what’s real, and awaken to the limitless essence of Beingness. If you’ve ever felt the call to wake up, this is the episode for you.
