Over much of 2009-2010, I was involved in the production of an episode of The Nature of Things on the psycho-therapeutic use of the highly potent psychedelic Amazonian plant mixture known as Ayahuasca.  This documentary follows a Vancouver doctor Gabor Mate as he explores the use of this ancient jungle medicine for his skid-row patients back home in the lower east side of Vancouver.  The CBC information page on this episode can be found here and you will be able to watch the episode online if you can’t see it on tv by following the links on The Nature of Things webpage here. Lastly, I have a description of this documentary on my website here.
