Come to this free webinar this Friday at Fluence, a conversation between Ingmar Gorman and myself about how to develop a better safety net for the psychedelic culture / industry. fluencetraining.com/training/blind…

Step in right direction, I appreciate this effort by Johns Hopkins to communicate risks of psychedelics, including risks of extended difficulties. youtube.com/watch?v=xUS2I8…

Once demonized, now overhyped, we have yet to find a balanced way to talk about psychedelics and their risks. Jules Evans and Kristin Nash join me to discuss how policymakers and public health officials can get the message right. mentaldisorder.ca/p/jules-evans-…

Matias who I interviewed a year ago and who suffered from post-psychedelic derealization for four years says his symptoms abated. What helped? 'Acupuncture, diet (particularly Keto), and focusing the mind on 'mundane' things (job, friends & family, etc)' ecstaticintegration.org/p/dmt-derealiz…

And psychedelics...

Good question for those working on psychedelic therapy - where would you refer people if they experienced extended difficulties?

If a therapist suggested a client might be demonically-possessed, would that be unethical? Would it be against the code of ethics of any state licensure bodies?

Taking part in a webinar with Fluence 's Ingmar Gorman next week to discuss extended difficulties and what might help people avoid or cope with them. fluencetraining.com/training/blind…

'Senator Mastriano made headlines recently when he floated legislation that would ban chemtrails, which aren’t real and only exist in the minds of unhinged conspiracy theorists. It was modeled after a similar bill that recently passed in Tennessee.'

The influence of Claudio Naranjo over Gestalt in the Spanish-speaking world is mind-boggling. Many if not most founders of the 150 or so Gestalt schools in Spain and Lat Am, and many Gestalt therapists, seem to have gone through Naranjo's Seekers After Truth (SAT) courses.

Is there any research or good articles on whether people from cultures that believe in spirits (eg, specifically Muslims, angels and djinns) are more or less likely to encounter them during psychedelic experiences?
