Cannabis, Consciousness & Queerness (Epi 43)
What happens when a queer man reclaims his healing journey through plant medicine, energy work, and sacred intention?
In this transformative episode of the Mindfully Gay Podcast, Jerry Buie is joined by special guest Serjio Gutierrez, the visionary behind The Healing Lounge, to explore how queer identity, spirituality, and holistic healing intersect in powerful and personal ways.
From addiction and self-doubt to spiritual awakening and empowered purpose, Serjio shares how intentional cannabis use, Reiki, Akashic Record readings, and sacred ritual have shaped his journey. Together, Jerry and Serjio challenge the stigma around plant medicine and reframe cannabis as a spiritual tool--not just a recreational escape.
They explore:
🌱 How plant medicine like cannabis can aid in trauma healing, shadow work, and spiritual alignment
🌀 The role of queer men as energy workers, spiritual leaders, and community builders
🔮 What it means to live in balance with the divine masculine and feminine
💫 The importance of intention, ceremony, and safe spaces for LGBTQ+ healing
🧘♂️ How sacred tools can amplify the gifts queer men carry into the world
This is more than a story of personal transformation--it's a call for queer people to remember their sacred place in community, reclaim their inner wisdom, and engage in healing practices that honor body, mind, and spirit.
🎙️ Tune in to hear Serjio's story, learn about his holistic product lines and offerings, and discover how the queer community is leading a new wave of conscious healing.
