What happens psychologically when someone takes a psychedelic? Neuroscientist Dr. Robin Carhart-Harris explains.
How can active coping using psychedelics be more healing than passive coping with SSRI antidepressants? Robin Carhart-Harris is of the school of thought that to actively improve your mental health, you need to make a personal commitment towards your mental well-being and do the work. By working through the shadows in your psychedelic trip with the right support, you can heal.
Psychedelics seem to be intelligent in the way that they seek out traumas and complexes, showing you what’s need to move towards healing. Neuroscientist and Synthesis Advisor Dr. Robin Carhart-Harris shares how we have to be mindful of this ‘magic bullet’ mentality. Psychedelics aren’t for everyone, but they can be therapeutically useful for many. That’s why safe environments and trained facilitators are key to feeling supported in your journey.
