Are Psychedelics Demonic? Come to Jesus - A Skeptic's Journey part 2 of 7

In this episode, I share a very personal update on my spiritual journey and why I’m reevaluating my decades-long relationship with psychedelics. While I talk openly about the profound healing I’ve experienced through ibogaine—especially around trauma, relapse, and addiction recovery—I also wrestle with a new and much deeper concern: the spiritual consequences of opening doors that I may not fully understand. I explain why I now see this as a conversation that requires humility, discernment, and far more investigation than many of us have been willing to give it. I also reflect on the tension between psychedelic transformation and spiritual vulnerability, including my questions about demonic entity attachments, altered states, and what real protection and integration should look like for people seeking healing. Rather than telling anyone what to do, I’m inviting listeners to get curious, think more soberly about these practices, and keep the conversation going with pastors, priests, practitioners, and people with firsthand experience—especially as I continue supporting clients through ibogaine preparation and integration. ✝️ Get the 11x LOVE Masterclass for FREE https://djvalerieblove.com/11xlove ~ Join the LOVE Tribe for FREE! https://djvalerieblove.com/community ~ Thank You for Supporting the LOVE Mission! https://djvalerieblove.com/donate ~ SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@djvalerieblove WEBSITE: https://djvalerieblove.com/podcast FOUNTAIN.FM: https://fountain.fm/show/761jhxFiibErm7eZZdlt APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dj-valerie-b-love-podcast/id1441540841 SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/6kZfzFZ3wKmWiljDajrJZ5?si=a9433473b06f464b RSS: https://serve.podhome.fm/rss/4996bcea-e098-5a89-ac63-af7a3df7cb5d ~ FOLLOW DJ Valerie X: https://x.com/djvalerieblove NOSTR: https://primal.net/djvalerieblove FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/djValerieBLove INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/djvalerieblove/ LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dj-valerie-b-love/ (00:30) Why I am rethinking psychedelics (03:13) A spiritual war and the appeal of altered states (05:50) From teenage LSD use to spiritual deception (09:21) Why Ibogaine still feels different for healing (11:52) Opening doors and questioning spiritual messages (17:56) Psychics, entities, and the need for protection (22:57) Risks, family impact, and a call for caution (26:44) A closing appeal for discernment and prayer Ibogaine (PubChem): https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Ibogaine Psychedelic and Dissociative Drugs (NIDA): https://nida.nih.gov/research-topics/psychedelic-dissociative-drugs MKULTRA materials (CIA FOIA Reading Room): https://www.cia.gov/readingroom/docs/CIA-RDP86-00114R000100080003-9.pdf The Bible: https://www.bible.com/
