As we continue to explore new, and innovative ideas in the world of self care, we are excited to share with you our next episode of the Elixir. In this episode we sit down with Alison Crosthwait - expert speaker, teacher and healer. We dive into the concept of microdosing and how a medicinal mushroom can become an integral part of your healing journey with Alison Crosthwait. Guest Bio: Alison is a Registered Psychotherapist in private practice in Toronto, ON. She is a Chartered Financial Analyst and spent fifteen years in trading and research in capital markets. In 2007 she went back to school to become a psychotherapist. Alison believes that healing herself is the most important part of her service and her journey of self-growth and understanding is long and varied. It was her own healing journey that got her involved in the transformation. Through a long path of healing, including grandmother ayahuasca, she found her juice again. Alison loves passing on the teachings and holding space for other people's transformations. Alison supports people in transformational processes catalyzed by microdosing psychedelic mushrooms. Her clients are self-aware; they know their patterns, love reading and learning about ways to grow, and want more for themselves. At North we believe that your healthy skin starts from within. We sit down with Alison today to discuss simple steps everyone can take to encourage healthy skin and a healthy state of mind.
