Former Packers QB Coach Was Asked About Aaron Rodgers’s Psychedelics Usage
Earlier this week, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers opened up about his use of ayahuasca and how it has aided in his mental health.
Ayahuasca is a psychoactive tea that contains the hallucinogenic drug DMT. It has been used for thousands of years for healing purposes in Central and South America.
“To me, one of the core tenets of your mental health is that self-love,” Rodgers said. That’s what ayahuasca did for me, was help me see how to unconditionally love myself. It’s only in that unconditional self-love, that then I’m able to truly be able to unconditionally love others. And what better way to work on my mental health than to have an experience like that?,” Rodgers added.
