Participating in psychedelic ceremonies with shamans from the Amazon. Diving headfirst into rituals at Burning Man. Flying across the world to work with spiritual gurus in Bali. These were never on Doug Cartwrightâs radar as âmust-haveâ experiences, but when youâre a twentysomething ex-Mormon ex-millionaire living deeply unfulfilled after doing everything you were âsupposed to,â you start searching for a normal reality far from your original version.
This book is Dougâs story, a psychedelic journey into meditation, silent retreats, astrophysics, neuroscience, philosophy, and all forms of self-healing. Itâs how he found the purpose of life, realized his mistakes, and built a new reality. Dougâs story is how he shifted his perspective on lifeâand itâs how you can learn to shift yours.
In Holy Sh!t Weâre Alive, Doug shows you how to live with intention, trust yourself, and show up every day for a meaningful life. Youâll learn mind-blowing facts and important clues to understand your existence and unique contributions. Self-love can be your superpower. No matter who you are or where youâve been, this book gives you permissionâand motivationâto do the work and throw out the garbage holding you back so you, too, can maximize your human experience.
