Psychedelic Leadership

Excellent new research showing the transformative effects of psilocybin for mental health. It's critical for anyone in a leadership position to live a life filled with meaning and connectedness. To show up with purpose and power, your inner life must be functioning and thriving. #leadership #psychedelic #thriving #mentalhealth

If it wasn't for psychedelics, I don't know what amount of therapy could have ever really shed light on  my subconscious beliefs, my limiting beliefs, my triggers. The stuff that happened in my childhood that I never really knew affected me, and I was completely functional. I wasn't depressed. I didn't have PTSD. I didn't have any of these significant problems in my life, but I also I didn't have: the joy, the lightness, the freedom, the understanding of the beauty of life that I have now. Now, I know that psychedelics are really scary to a lot of people, and that's okay. They alter your consciousness. So I understand I was scared, too, but then I read a lot, I did the research, and sometimes you just gotta go for it! But if you do, I always say this, you have to go for it with a guide, with somebody who knows what they're doing so that they can walk you through it. Be safe. Be intention. But also, be brave! #WPD #620 #psychedelic #psychedelictherapy #worldpsychedelicsday

MDMA therapy has had a tremendous impact on my personal and professional life. After seeing incredible breakthroughs in my personal growth, I even went through training with the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) to fully understand how MDMA can be used to help others. I’m deeply saddened that the F.D.A. advisory panel has taken this stance. While the vote is not binding on the F.D.A., the agency often follows the recommendations of its advisory panels. A final decision by the agency is expected in mid-August. 🔴Now what do you guys think? Should MDMA be approved as a treatment for PTSD? #psychedelicleadership #psychedelicpower #psychedelics #ptsd

Happy "Bicycle" Day! 🚲 Today, we celebrate the transformative discovery of LSD by Albert Hofmann in 1943. Bicycle Day symbolizes the journey of exploration and discovery. Just as Hofmann embarked on his fateful bicycle ride, let's pedal into the realms of curiosity, innovation, and self-discovery. Embrace the ride and seek inspiration from the unconventional paths ahead. #BicycleDay #ExploreTheUnknown #Psychedelics

Psychedelic alone isn't enough. While substances like magic mushrooms or LSD can’t fully cure chronic depression, they do kickstart a healing process. Skilled therapists, however, can’t solve it alone. That’s where psychedelic integration therapy comes in - it combines science with profound experiences, illuminating a path toward wholeness🌿 #mentalhealth #psychedelictrip #psychedelicpower #psychedelics

Many people wonder about the experience of psychedelic therapy. It may sound intriguing, but what actually happens?🤔 Well, it begins with taking a substance and then waiting⏱️ This waiting period, often around 30 to 40 minutes, feels like an articulate silence. You're quiet, perhaps listening to music, yet there's an underlying anticipation. It's like the scene from the movie "The Matrix" where you choose between the blue pill and the white pill, knowing that your decision will change everything. Psychedelics elevate your consciousness to a new level, and once you've experienced it, there's no going back💡 This transformation is not only profound for your personal growth but also vital for your professional journey.
