MySelf Wellness
Charles was locked in a self-destructive cycle of addiction and depression for over 25 years. Drugs, alcohol, gambling, over-eating––he went through all of it.
It was not until he began to incorporate psychedelics in a therapeutic way that he finally began to heal, and turn his life around. Through working with ketamine, the insurmountable resistance toward healthy lifestyle changes vanished. He regained control of his life in a profound new way. “There is a connection to healing our trauma and rewiring our nervous system,” he reflects. “Psychedelics can be a useful tool when done in a safe set and setting, and incorporating integrative practices to assist you in the long term. The journey is not in the medicine, but when you take what you have experienced and bring it back into daily practice.” Everyone matters, there is not one soul on this planet that is less worthy or deserving to receive these healing modalities. It is his mission to bring these healing modalities to anyone with the courage and commitment to heal.Psychedelic Institute of Los Angeles

Founder, Full Send OrgaNicks
Nick Baum, founder of Fullsend Organicks LLC, is an entrepreneur, mental health warrior, mycologist, educator, and underground cultivator who builds bridges between science, magic, and the human mind. Diagnosed at five years old with bipolar disorder, ADHD, dyslexia, chronic depression, and alexithymia — and later with PTSD — Nick was told he might never live a “normal” life. But he found a different path, guided by nature’s oldest teacher: mushrooms. Through decades of hands-on work, Nick has cultivated over 350 mushroom genetics and developed his own line of specialized strains, including Echo of Envy, Golden Meanie, WTFLC, Astro Jax, and Manic Madness — each crossed and refined for its potential to support mental clarity, emotional stability, and neurochemical balance. His work goes beyond cultivation; it’s personal research into how mycelial intelligence can inform human healing. Nick has been featured in High Times (“What Doctors Couldn’t Fix, Mushrooms Taught Me”) and Reality Sandwich (his exploration of the Enigma mutation). Known for blending technical depth with lived experience, Nick represents a new kind of educator — one grounded in truth, experimentation, and resilience. At Cannadelic Global, his talk, “Rewiring the Mind Through Mycelium,” explores how mushrooms reshaped his brain, his purpose, and his understanding of healing itself. He lives by a simple truth: if you can see it in your mind, you can build it with your hands.

I’ve always been fascinated with plant teachers. When I was younger, 13-14, I had this strange draw to the Fly Agaric (Amanita Muscaria) mushroom. Something told me that they would play a large role in my life. As I developed through the years and began experimenting more with ethnobotanicals, this feeling only grew stronger. As I was building a CBD business in 2019, I was also going through a grueling benzodiazepine withdrawal. In 2020 I found some Amanita Muscaria var. Guessowii growing at my parents’ house. There was an extremely strong allure, and I decided to pick them and begin researching. That’s when I found Amanita Dreamer. Nothing has been the same since then. Amanita Muscaria changed my life, and I will forever be grateful to the mushroom and Amanita Dreamer for supplying me with the necessary information to further this curiosity. I offer other ethnobotanical plants that have been of keen interest to me, and I hope to always be expanding my product line to offer you the most intriguing and beneficial ethnobotanicals Gaia has to offer. I hope to share with you a little MN Nice, and to help you in your journey of reconnection and self-discovery. I went to college for physics, with the goal of becoming a quantum physicist. After a year of college, I realized the rigidity of the school system wasn't something that I was interested in, and I decided to pursue a career in business. My goal has always been to have the largest positive impact that I can on the world, and I figured that business, instead of quantum mechanics, might provide me with more of an opportunity to have the impact I wanted. I started off in Real Estate when I turned 21, flipping houses, my business partner and I doing all the work ourselves. We built up a rental portfolio over a few years at which point I decided to get my Real Estate License and begin helping investors build their Real Estate portfolios. I enjoyed it but there was something missing. In 2017 I stepped out of Real Estate and took a couple years to focus on myself and figure out what I wanted to do next, which led me to get off of benzodiazepines and to finding Amanita Muscaria. I have a very strong spiritual practice and spend a lot of time meditating and reading. I like to spend as much time outside as I possibly can, and enjoy hiking, camping, canoeing, climbing, you name it. I have played music my whole life. I started with guitar and started a few punk bands in the twin cities from 16-21. At 21 I joined a metal band, playing drums, who I was for 10 years. I currently play a ton of piano and continue to write music, but much calmer music 😉 When I was 19, I moved to Portland OR for a little while with my closest friend. We spent our times hiking mountains and playing music with someone we had met our 2nd day there at a punk show. This individual's Dad was a paranoid schizophrenic, with the most severe symptoms I've ever known. One day, he came up to me, with his eyes wide and his hair jetting off in all directions in an unkempt frenzy. He had a book in his hand, The Holographic Universe: by Michael Talbot, and with an intensity I'll never forget, he told me 'They told me you need to have this.' I didn't realize how much that moment would impact me at the time, but a few weeks later, on the top of a mountain I had just climbed, staring at the sun through the clouds (which I could actually look at without it hurting my eyes), I had an epiphany that I had gotten everything I needed out of Portland and it was time to come home to Minnesota. It wasn't until a couple months later that I read the book and realized the entire reason I needed to go to Oregon was that it was the shortest, most concise path for me to take to get this book (and my cat, Spazz). That book changed the trajectory of my entire life, and I recommend anyone that is interested in spirituality, the nature of the universe, or the human potential to read it. I have many more stories that I'd like to share, and I'll continue throwing stories up here from time to time. But for now, I just really am so grateful, honored, and humbled to be where I am at and to be able to provide such beautiful, beneficial medicines to you all. You all mean so much to me and I really am indebted to you for being part of my life. With much love, and infinite gratitude, Christian Rasmussen

Pro Basketball Player Turned Psychedelic Integration & Holistic Wellness Coach
I’m a Psychedelic Integration & Holistic Wellness Coach dedicated to helping leaders, seekers, and visionaries realize their potential and purpose through plant medicine, integrative health, and soul-centered coaching.
For most of my life, I was disconnected from my body, my truth, and my purpose. Achievement and perfectionism drove me, but nothing I accomplished filled the void and emptiness inside. In this search for meaning and connection, I began my healing and self-development journey.
Although therapy, coaching, and personal development (and my Psychology degree) provided me with tools and intellectual concepts, I still knew something was missing.
Psychedelic plant medicine was the missing link.
After working with the medicine, I was finally able to identify the root causes and deep-seated beliefs that drove my patterns and behaviors. Paired with integration tools and practices, I reclaimed my power, purpose, and authentic Self. Now I support others in doing the same.
As a lifelong learner and student of life, I am honored to walk alongside as we co-create a path toward realizing your purpose and fullest potential.
