Psychedelic's Anti-Therapeutic Promise (podcast

Psychedelics are quickly becoming a new drug of promise, not for what psychedelics can do, but for what mental health practitioners want.People want various things. Certainly, some do want healing, and some want entertainment, but some also want liberation from the normality that psychology aims to restore.I support the renaissance in mind-altering drugs. They will help those people whose mental realities are stuck. Some of these people are labeled mentally ill, others are labeled psychologists, but most of these are just normal people.“Most things in the world are hype. Most things in the world are oversold and under-delivered. But, in my experience, sex, music, and psychedelics deliver. They are actually ‘better than advertised.’ ” ― Terrace McKennaFor a written, illustrated version or to subscribe to the blog, visit the mindstrengthbalance.com website. This is a public episode.
