Here is a simple advice I like to remind myself of daily and never forget about it. Follow your guts My work with plants, meditation, and the Sundance has done many things for me, but an essential one is to learn to listen to incoming messages. I learned weird things I have started to write about in my stories (
Thank you for your always powerful insights Loïc. I’ve been following you under the role of entrepreneur for years as I was studying marketing. When you started your spiritual journey, I was in a place where I could understand the quest but not feel the call. I had the honor to be introduced to the Medicine last weekend and I’m sure it would not have been the same without your generous testimonies and writing or the PAUA community.
So I’m very grateful for this.
Everyday, thanks to you and the community, I can remain on the path that seems to be the right one, through the readings and the sources you share (Jung, Jodo, Casteñada...), the very impactful threads on the PAUA canal, the energy it creates. It’s like a spider web where connections are multiplying as the community is growing.
Following your guts is definitely the best advice one can follow, though it could be difficult to understand the signals.
Merci encore d’avoir le courage d’outrepasser les opinions du tout un chacun et de nous partager ton cheminement.
I came here because I was curious to read what you've written. So much of what I see is people trying to teach others how to live which seems like popular thing now but not backed up by any real experience. It's rare to actually get a perspective that has some depth and insight to it which I appreciated.
Thank you, Loic! I’ve been following you for many years, but I truly connected with you when you opened up about your experiences with medicines and Amazon. You inspired me to explore my spiritual side, which had been dormant. Thanks for all you do and for being a steward of Mother Earth!

That Jodorowsky image is fantastic! Now you see it, now you don't...

Love it that you are wing foiling Loic. It is Zen for me too.
Thank you for the ascending descending cartoon.
Reminds me of the Sai Weng Shi Ma story... It's a comment on the flipping of good and bad (climbing or falling).
