An upcoming book lifts the lid on Aaron Rodgers’ decision to take a psychedelic trip that he later described as life-changing.
The NFL quarterback tried the traditional Amazon Rainforest drink ayahuasca during a visit to Peru with his then-girlfriend, race car driver Danica Patrick, just before the COVID pandemic hit in 2020, author Ian O’Connor writes in Out of Darkness: The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers.
The brew, prepared by a shaman or healer from ingredients with hallucinogenic properties, was recommended to Rodgers during a golf game by his friend Jordan Russell, who visited the Temple of the Way of Light healing center in Iquitos, Peru, the previous year.
