Originally titled: Psilocybin, Healing, and The Examined Life
In an era where medical interventions, neurobiological research, occult magick, and high-dose psychonautic exploration are taking the psychedelic centre stage, what about psychedelics as a part of the simple quest to live an examined life and become a more mature person?
In this talk I look at the role psilocybin can play in our lives as an agent of insight and how it can help us mature and develop into whole people, trustworthy partners, and healthy citizens.
