What if the life-map you inherited is really a maze with no exit? What if the mess you're running from is the doorway to raw freedom?

After 35 years of psychedelic initiations in the Amazon and street-level soul work across five continents, shaman-writer Rudá Iandê rips the plastic wrap off modern spirituality—then sets it on fire.

This isn't a bedtime story. It's a flamethrower. Inside you'll find:

  • Sledgehammer questions that shatter cultural hypnosis, family programming, and your inner control freak
  • Psychedelic field notes—from ayahuasca visions to boardroom battles—with zero sacred-cow censorship
  • Rogue rituals for turning anxiety into fuel, perfectionism into play, and chaos into a dance partner
  • Street-tested wisdom on reclaiming your voice, your beast, and your beautifully human contradictions

Forget enlightenment as a trophy. This book hands you the keys to your untamed, unapologetic self—and dares you to hit the gas.

If you're a rebel seeker, a misfit mystic, or anyone who secretly hates sitting "mindfully" while your life burns down, Laughing in the Face of Chaos is your permission slip to torch the rulebook and howl at the moon.

Rudá Iandê is an Amazonian shaman and visionary who fuses ancestral ritual with modern psychology to spark raw, real-world change. For 35 years he's guided artists, entrepreneurs, and change-makers to break their chains, laugh at chaos, and live ferociously human.
