Psychedelics: Opening the Brain's Critical Learning Window with Tania de Jong - Sarah Westall

Founder of Mind Medicine Australia and inspirational speaker Tania de Jong joins the Thrive Hour for an enlightening discussion about psychedelic medicine. She explains the remarkable critical learning period that psychedelics uniquely open—a short window of heightened neuroplasticity where the brain becomes far more adaptable (or, more simply, where the brain and body are temporarily reset back to a more youthful state, allowing them to learn, heal, grow, and expand again).  Scientists are now discovering that this unique window may become a powerful tool not only for expanding human potential, but also for helping the body heal from conditions such as PTSD, trauma, depression, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, addiction, and many other neurological and mental health disorders. We also discuss why this emerging field of research could fundamentally change the way we think about healing, recovery, and human potential.See more at taniadejong.com or mindmedicineaustralia.org.au.
