ATTMind is an interview-based podcast focusing on psychedelics. It is hosted by Canadian author and public educator, James W. Jesso.
“My primary goal with this podcast is to explore psychedelic cultures, research, and medicine. However, attached to that primary goal is a secondary goal: supporting the personal and cultural integration of psychedelic experiences in a functional and healthy way. I move towards that goal by exploring the psychedelic field with a curiosity for immediate and valuable relevance to a person’s lived life.
The psychedelic experience really shines when we find a way to integrate what we’ve learned from it into our daily lives. My desire to help that with that integration on a personal and cultural level is why I make Adventures Through The Mind.”
Dr. Monica Gagliano takes us on a deep dive into the results of her scientific research into plant intelligence. But also shares the profound impact of her personal encounters with the living intelligence of the natural world, and what those encounters have revealed about herself, about life, and about the murderous consequences of modern scientific training.
Ed Prideaux joins ATTMind to discuss HPPD, its symptoms, its history, its association with other mental health conditions, how widespread it seems to be, and how it isn’t necessarily a negative experience.
R. Coleman takes us through the wealth of knowledge he has earned over his 30 years of healing trauma with psychedelic psychotherapy. We discuss trauma in general, the value of psychedelic to heal it, and the nuances of working with different psychedelics, for different people, at different times, for different issues.
Rev. Danny Nemu takes us on a whirlwind adventure through the historical and pharmacological origins of Old Testament and outlines the path it took from hallucinogenic rituals by desert shamans to the dry crackers and social repression of the modern era.
People call it the God Molecule because it can, apparently, dissolve all perceivable duality from reality and suspend one’s awareness is an infinite, all-encompassing totality of being, which is often described as becoming (or realising we have always been) God.
Adventures Through The Mind is part of my mission to better the world by sharing my gifts, skills, and personality. It is a mission of love geared towards community growth. As such, it is completely funded by the community that receives value from it; by people like you. Its growth and sustainability are dependent on that support.
