About the Book

• Explores how to work ethically, skillfully, and responsibly with psychedelics and plant spirits

• Shares the author’s transformative psychedelic experiences and how they helped him discover his life’s purpose

• Provides shamanic practices to develop your capacity as a Wisdom Warrior, heal personal and collective trauma, and connect with infinite cosmic love

Taking us through his more than 50 years of immersion in psychedelic shamanism, Tom Soloway Pinkson shares profound Indigenous teachings, plant teacher wisdom, and his own transformative experiences on the psychedelic Wisdom Warrior path.

Pinkson shares his journey of awakening through childhood trauma to a revelatory connection with nature. He describes his mentorship with Indigenous medicine peoples around the world, including an eleven-year initiatory apprenticeship with Guadalupe de la Cruz, a renowned Huichol shaman. Through his experiences with death and dying and with LSD, peyote, and ayahuasca, he forged a cosmology based on the interconnectedness of all beings and dedicated to shifting a fear-based world to a love-based one.

Presenting a map for others to follow the Wisdom Warrior path of psychedelic shamanism, the author explores how to work ethically, skillfully, and responsibly with psychedelics and plant spirits. He also shares shamanic practices to develop your capacity to connect with the infinite cosmic love that is the essence of our being as well as shows how to restore the sacred in everyday life and discover your role in helping to heal and transform our world.

Review :
“Tom Pinkson is one of the most brilliant spiritual teachers and leaders I’ve encountered, and The Psychedelic Shaman is a treasure. Tom provides a wealth of teachings on awakening and practical guidance for the journey. I know readers will feel inspired to walk a path that brings us all and the planet to receive the goodness of life. A timely and beautiful book.” “Tomás has been a beacon of hope and a compassionate guide for others seeking to follow the path of warrior wisdom. He shows up always as a humble learner, a fellow traveler ever open to the marvelous mystery of being. Brother Tomás has much to teach us, and we all have much to learn.” “For more than half a century, Tom Pinkson has been building bridges between the shamanic and the psychotherapeutic; between East and West, North and South; between the beauty of the natural world and the wonders of the supernatural. In The Psychedelic Shaman, this seasoned psychedelic elder provides skillful suggestions as to how we may cross those bridges with him as he recounts the heartfelt story of a life well lived.” “Tom Pinkson has woven a brilliant tapestry of practical wisdom. This clear and concise book offers insight into how to prepare for safe and fruitful psychedelic experiences. As you read this book, you will be inspired to live a more luminous, open-hearted, and awakened life.” “Tom Pinkson ran away from home as a teenager, but he did not get very far. Just as well, because his parents’ apprehension launched him on a lifelong quest for wisdom, eloquently described in this incredible book. But be forewarned: reading The Psychedelic Shaman may make you run away too—away from those in power who attempt to stultify your quest as you try to access your Wisdom Warrior and the rituals that can expand your consciousness.” “Tom Pinkson offers a compelling vision of how psychedelic experiences, when approached with reverence and proper guidance, can be profound catalysts for personal and collective transformation. Drawing on more than 50 years of immersion in Indigenous wisdom traditions, Pinkson provides a much-needed roadmap for working with plant medicines in a way that honors their sacred power.” “Tom Pinkson weaves an insightful and profound exploration of psychedelic shamanism based on his 50 years of direct experience with Indigenous shamans. The book invites you to transform into your version of the Warrior and delves into the ethical and responsible use of psychedelics. It offers invaluable guidance on healing trauma and connecting with cosmic love." “There are those who talk—and those who walk the talk—who strive to follow a path of their own creation that is relevant and uplifting to all who come to share in their presence. I have great gratitude for Tom’s continued generosity of spirit and wisdom as he gives us that opportunity and offers a profound enrichment of consciousness, soul, and leads us to the sources.” “Tom Pinkson’s knowledge flows from a heart/mind attuned to Mother Earth and the stars and with an authenticity that comes from being comfortable with his humanity. This book is a gateway to all of that.” “In this deeply spiritual memoir, Tom beautifully weaves the poignancy of his very human life with brilliant depictions of his psychedelic initiations. He’s both wise and relatable, pointing us to what is possible if we commit to creating a life full of love, kindness, caring, and heartfelt connection. I love the descriptions of the LSD trips—Beautiful.” “Tom Pinkson has developed a practical and transformative approach to fruitful aging. His insights on ways to focus our intentions and attention in creating a new vision for aging is very potent. I am so pleased that his work is now available to all through this book.” “I have not experienced visions through herbal medicine. Although I have experienced Tom's healing songs that released me from trapped post-operative constrictions, and I have been blessed by the author’s generosity of spirit and wisdom for so many years. I can recommend to you, dear reader, a visit with Tom in his new book as a way to brighten your star connection and have a greater connection with Mother Earth’s blessings for you.” “Out of all the books I’ve read on this subject, Tom Pinkson’s The Psychedelic Shaman has been the most impactful for me. If you have read a lot of books on conscious aging, reading Tom’s book will not be redundant. If you are new to this exploration, what an inspiring way to begin!” “Tom directs us to go inside ourselves to our deeper wisdom and our connection with all life, all that is. What was most profound was my self-discovery that happened simply from reading The Psychedelic Shaman, not ingesting any psychedelic substance to get there. Thank you Tom Pinkson for your life, your love, your journey, and opening me to more of why I am here. Why we all are here.”
