What It's Like to Take Ayahuasca at a Psychedelic Healing Retreat

The drug ayahuasca gives the same trip as LSD and is considered therapeutic.

We visit a weekend retreat in the Tarragona province in Spain where shamans lead participants on a spiritual journey on the drug ayahuasca. Ayahuasca gives people a similar trip to LSD or mushrooms but is said to have healing powers. We see what really happens during these therapeutic retreats and the effects ayahuasca has on participants.
