End of Life & Psilocybin Therapy - Thomas Hartle

Today we meet with Thomas Hartle, who was granted a federal exemption to use psilocybin mushrooms as a therapy for anxiety surrounding his Stage 4 colon cancer. Thomas has exhibited profound benefit from a session with psilocybin, which was legally facilitated by a company called TheraPsil. We have the honor to sit down with him to hear about his journey before, during and after the therapy. .Thomas Hartle is a 52-year-old father of two based in Saskatoon.
