Episode #177 Bonus: Mantra, Tantra, Ayahusaca | Christine Marie Mason

What if the longing many of us feel for freedom, belonging, and ecstasy is really a call to return to the holiness of our own bodies?

In this special bonus episode, Christine Marie Mason offers an intimate preview of her new book, Mantra, Tantra, and Ayahuasca: Ecstasy, Devotion, and the Return of the Holy Body.

Drawing from her own journey through exhaustion, loss, and profound spiritual opening, Christine reads from the book’s introduction and shares how practices like Mantra and Kirtan, Tantra as a fully embodied spiritual worldview, entheogenic medicines such as Ayahuasca, and breathwork can reconnect us to ecstasy, belonging, and our innate holiness—without bypassing the hard work of healing.

This episode is an invitation to listen to the preview and feel into whether this path and these stories resonate with your own freedom journey, to pre-order the book to support its launch and help bring these conversations to more people, and to leave a review once you’ve read it so others can discover the work
