“I felt an overwhelming sense of calm and peace. The world was moving so slowly that I was forgetting to breathe. The visions were fading, and a black fog was seeping into my mind; leaving me in the darkness. At one point I remember thinking that this was it; this was how I was going to die… and strangely I felt at peace with that. And then I took a breath, all the light returned in bursts of rainbows flowing off the tails of macaws as they soared through the jungle. And I was back, swimming through this other dimension – conscious, but not present.”
