Psychedelics and the Brain | Exploring the Therapeutic Potential of Psilocybin with Dr. Jahan Khamsehzadeh

We have a special guest on our show today, Dr. Jahan Khamsehzadeh, who is an author of a recent book called The Psilocybin Connection. We talk about plant medicine and the various modalities that are used in healing these days with Jahan, who knows quite a bit about this subject. Jahan tells about his first experience with psychedelics and an impression he received and voice he heard, which he believes was God, which has set his life on a path he didn’t anticipate earlier in his life. People who experience these types of experiences will often experience a natural regulation of the breathing that will help calm the individual and can put you into a meditative state. Sound is a very important part of the rhythm and can really help people to feel synchronized, which can be magnified through music. About Jahan 1:15Letting go of the limitations we have nurtured unconsciously 7:38Struggling with anxiety 9:10Breathing 16:05Music 21:05Shaman and its meaning 23:20The next evolutionary step 28:39Learning to love 36:25What people were missing with sex, drugs, and rock and roll 40:10Being homoluminous 45:34The brighter stars are binary 50:07Preparatory steps to consider 51:23“It’s very clear to me that psychedelics have been the most transformative methods I’ve ever come across and I’ve done a lot of meditation, a lot of therapy, a lot of every modality you can come across, and I also felt this is where I could be the most useful. We’re really missing this crucial element as a species that can really restabilize us, reintegrate us back into the planet and help us really discover who we really are as a species and as more of a larger spiritual being.” 3:39psilohealth.co
