Today we welcome to the podcast Dr. Reid Robison, who is the Chief Clinical Officer for Numinus and also has several local clinics known as Cedar Psychiatry. He has his own podcast and Instagram, and talks about this subject at great depth there, which we’re going to get into today. We talk about the world of psychedelic therapy, how music is important in what we do and how it is really having a powerful effect in the lives of people who are dealing with difficult things such as anxiety, stress, PTSD, suicidal thoughts, and all sorts of things that are widespread today. This is ancient medicine for today’s medicine and we hope this can be something that will help those who are struggling.
