- Michael Pollan's new book "How To Change Your Mind" surveys the highly controversial terrain of the renaissance of both the science and popular usage of psychedelic substances. As one of our most brilliant and clear-eyed explorers of such topics as plant intelligence and how we feed ourselves, Michael will share his luminous insights from what began as investigative reportage and became a very personal interior journey into the mystery of consciousness and the nature of spirituality.
Read an excerpt from Michael Pollan's book, How To Change Your Mind, at bioneers.org/how-to-change-yo...
This keynote talk was delivered at the 2018 National Bioneers Conference.
Introduction by Kenny Ausubel, Bioneers Co-Founder and CEO.

I have been depressed for a long time, but after taking shrooms few months ago, l feel much happier and highly motivated and my ADHD gone , lost a ton of anxiousness and had a few epiphanies about how I should live my life. I decided to buy an ounce for backup, but haven’t yet felt the need to take any more since then.
I have autism, I was diagnosed with it when I was 15. I tried shrooms and it made me function so much better.
Eek I’m autistic too and might wanna try mushrooms. How do I go about it?
Yeah doc.brenttt is your guide. Man is exceptional with anything psychedelics.
Hello Can he be reached on IG?
Yes doc.Brenttt
Psilocybin mushrooms saved my life honestly. They helped me see the pure beauty in life, and made me realize how dumb it would be to take myself out.
I've been looking to try some recently, but I can't find anywhere to get them, anyone?
doc.jeanne is your guy. Got all kinds of psychedelics stuff. Guided me through my first ever experience
Is on Instgram?
Yessss
I just had my first experience with golden teachers, it was really great! I loved it.
Psychedelics have the potential to make a significant impact on mental health issues like anxiety and depression. They've been incredibly helpful for me personally.
I've been looking to try some recently, but I can't find anywhere to source.
dr.tonyshrooms is your guy. The best shrooms and psychedelics guy I know.
He's on instgram??
Yes
I had my first experience with golden teachers, it was really great.
I could remember several years ago I was diagnosed with ADHD. Also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.
Can you help me with the reliable source. I'm 64 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Greece. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
YES very sure of Dr.raymycology. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I hate that psilocybin gets grouped with drugs like cocaine and heroin. Mushrooms are a remedy, not a vice! I went on a microdose treatment for a couple of months and within the first week, every sight of a cigarette got me questioning why I was doing all that to myself. It really works.
childhood. It was relentless. I assumed it would ultimately end me somehow. About twelve years ago I randomly accepted the offer from a friend of a few doses of mushrooms. I did them two consecutive nights alone. First night was pretty mild. The second night? Wow. I saw my depression from every angle, realized much. Next day: depression totally gone. Never came back, never coming back. It's like it's a forest far away I can remember, and could probably find again with enough effort, but it has zero impact on anything in my life or mind. They honestly saved my life and improved it immensely. I never did them again, either. I wish there was a good, organized way to administer them to people who would benefit from them.
Psilocybin saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety and illicit pill addiction. Believe it or not, in a couple years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
I’ve been looking to get my hands on shrooms for my anxiety and stress levels. Any one knows where I can source?
Doctor_coxx is the best. He's been my go to for anything psychedelics and shrooms. He's very good
Yes he is.. Doctor_coxx
How can I learn where can I get it and can a psychiatrist prescribe it? I've been suffering from depression anxiety and insomnia for year
@@george.beard2409how long do I have to suX his cox for some shroms
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, dr.sporesss. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac.
He's constantly talking about killing someone.
He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Is he on instagram?
Yes he is. dr.sporesss
Psychedelics in general have done what hundreds of hours of PTSD therapy couldn't. I went from being on 31 pill daily for mental states to 0 over the course of 13 weeks. Like everything in the world.
It's not for everyone and experiences will certainly vary. Me and my friends approached it from a lens of healing and learning and it's exactly what we got out of it.
The one time I had a bad trip, ended up being a great learning experience. I took some shrooms, called ALL of my friends. They sounded excited when I told them I was on shrooms. Inevitably they would ask if they came over they could have some. I didn't have any extra, then they would say, "Oh I can't trip sit with you I'm busy". This hit me deep in the feels, causing a bad trip. So I asked myself why I had sooooo many shitty "friends". The answer? "You're a druggy and so are they. You're pretty shitty too.
You're a loser. Move away from your toxic home town and stop doing drugs". Felt excited and happy after getting this answer. I moved that same week. Best decision of my life.
As someone who has done shrooms, this is very accurate. The first time I did shrooms I started to recall childhood memories that I never, ever thought about, It was very amazing.
@@jensenbruz1029thanks for sharing,Much love.
Macro vs Micro
had success in doing a few Macro first. Allowing the mushrooms to blast you into self awareness, showing you the shadows and trauma that have been hiding under the rug. Micro dosing has helped me stay on the pulse of my shadow work, helping me remember my best self.
@@jensenbruz1029much love mate, keep the spirit alive.
Psychedelic is the answer to most severe anxiety and depression. The use of magic mushrooms completely helps one get over depression and makes you feel like yourself.
I’ve been thinking to use psychedelics for my anxiety and depression.
Anyone know where I can source them?
@@jefferywalker4834Yes, dr_derekk
I made researches and found out that shrooms are very helpful, it has really helped to reduce anxiety and depression and some other mental health issues.

Does anyone know where I can source them?
Yes, dr.larryshroommn

Sure,dr.larryshroommn
Psychedelics definitely have potential to deal with mental health, they really helped me.
By the way ;"yes,You can look in the mirror on mushrooms" I have done it during one of my trips...I was kind of scared to do that because of stories I have heard:What if I see something horrifying??? So,very slowly and carefully I have gazed myself on the mirror and wawww ....I was soooo beautiful ;my God I didn't know how beautiful I was until then...There was nothing to be afraid of...Everything was beautiful and so did I...So I say do not condition yourself and give yourself a chance to see how beautiful You truly are...
Send me the mushrooms.
Felt the same way when I experienced it after ego death.
I wish! I've done it many times and it doesn't last long before I have to look away. A few times it has been quite scary, most other times I'm just uncomfortable seeing myself as unfamiliar.
Aisha Lila I don't like looking in the mirror on shrooms, not so good
@@NabilBreda I would advise against looking in the mirror
My experience with ayahuasca was like this, I became blades of grass, mountain soil, and so many other things. The most profound experiences I’ve ever had.
Mushroom was good to me
I know, right! It's mind-blowing how psychedelic trips can be so individual and unique, even when people take the same amount at the same time.
Can he be On instgram?
Absolutely! It's incredible to see how psilocybin mushrooms and psychedelics have the potential to make a positive impact on mental health. They've shown promising results in treating depression and anxiety. It's exciting to think about the possibilities they hold for helping people.
Can he send to me in Ohio?
If anonymous delivery is something you're concerned about, he offers that option. He can provide an extra level of privacy and peace of mind. Safety and discretion.

@STRAWMAN HUMAN he always lied and Dennis admitted it.

People with depression proceed with caution.
I suffered from extreme depression and ptsd from a accident that left me burned and disfigured.
I struggled with depression for years but never suicidal.
I tried a mushroom trip as a last resort to cure my depression and what happened scared me!
The trip made me comfortable with the thought of death. Almost made me think that suicide wouldn’t be so bad, it’s ok to die.
These thoughts scared me to no end!
I didn’t have these thoughts before the trip.
Luckily I spoke with my wife throughout this process and together we worked it out.
Later on a tried micro dosing which ultimately I believed truly helped me.
The micro dosing made me more open and I was able to lay it all out and work thru things with my wife to help guide me.
So just a word of caution.
And please let your loved ones know what you are doing so they can offer help if needed.
Isn't being scared of those thoughts a sign it made you realize that you didn't want to die?
The real fear is in living... when you got to that place in your head where you didn’t fear death is where it would have been helpful to have someone guide you through and back to how it relates to living and go into that in the trip. 🤟
I was once worried that I might be a psychopath. I told this to my counselor and she said, "I definitely know you're not a psychopath." I asked her how she knew. "A psychopath wouldn't be worried about it. A psychopath wouldn't care." I dont know if that conveys what I'm trying to say, but what I'm getting at is perhaps being scared of being ok with suicide is a good thing... depression is like a living death and a lot of our thoughts while depressed are like being ok with dying like that. So perhaps that is the lesson. Well...I think I really shit the bed on that one and i dont think what I said makes any sense, but I hope you know what I mean. Being scared of beingnok with death is like being afraid of death which, for a person with a wonderful wife etc is a good thing. Kicks your ass into appreciating life.
Well i mean the suicide part probably is your utilitarian logical male energy interpreting the new information of “death is ok” and yes, i believe that deat actually is ok although i’m scared of it (also ok) and wouldn’t pre maturely inflict in on myself.
@@Gimpinalong got any mental illnesses? Some psychedelics dont mesh well with certain mental illness.
I had given up hope and began using mushroom medicine. It has transformed me from the inside out. I'm sharing my journey now too and hope that people will benefit from it. Thanks for this great content.
In the 60s I found LSD and loved it as I learned about myself. After a few years I realised I didn't need artificial drugs to open those doors of perception. I've only smoked herbs and drank beer in moderation. Now at 70 I look back and see my growth as a human who wants to be kind as I would enjoy others kindness. I can go on and on about me, but it's about all of us growing into PEACE as the caretakers of this fragile planet, not the owners. Nuff sed. Peace from California

I tried psychedelics in the form of shrooms also with some really strong weed and alcohol together. And needless to say the trip itself did not go well. However I think it was the catalyst to coming out a changed man. Afterwards i realized I was a very unhappy individual and there was a lot of dark shit buried deep within my sub-conscience. Things ive always thought if i said or expressed out loud people would hate me. My one friend who was with me while i was tripping out stood by me and to this day is probably my closest friend. Needless to say, ive come out a changed man. In 3 months I’ve eliminated all of my people-pleasing tendencies, ive sought professional help for something that happened to me in my childhood, started a new career, I even started dating. I probably won’t go out of my way to try it again but that experience has made a lot of things that i thought were impossible, VERY easy today.
Mushrooms are meant to be taken with respect. Mixing a dirty addictive drug with it like alcohol defeats the entire purpose. Making your experience not as beneficial. Psilocybin demands respect or else it will not respect you.
I can relate because my first microdose did not go well. I, too, attribute it likely to be the result of having too much "stuff" in my past that I lug around every day. I was going to not take it again but with this realization, I thought I should give it another go. Hopefully, I will find similar success.
Mixing can make a trip go wrong. Weed amplifies any paranoia, alcohol affects your thinking. I definitely drink and smoke but I’m telling you there’s something special about doing a “clean” mushroom trip. Mixing can make it go weird
In my opinion, the giant knot is fear. When fear is diminished, so is the ego.
wise
@Mike Knight It is human to fear death but those cancer patients Pollan told us had the most logical reason to even fear not so distant death. Howerver, by dissolving their ego with high-dose psilocybin, their fear disappeared to nothingness. I do really want that. We want that. So we can eventually live in this world
Glenn Reggie I could see what I would look like as an old man (I was about 18)
A world without fear is a world without hate
The way I understand this, ego is the sense of "I" in the same way that "deja vu" is the sense of "I already lived this moment", I mean, a sense, an illusion, a software that is useful for survival in this stage of life, but it is too a big problem and a potential threat to the whole human raze.
Ego is what generates fear. Once ego is dissolved there's no fear anymore.
I remember my Dad trying (and failing) to discourage me from psychedelics. "The things you see in your head, they're not real, why would you want to see that"
Because Dad, I think they're actually more real than anything in this fabricated society, and I only wish that more people would open their minds and see the true light of nature and divinity 🙏❤️
Bruh wtf are u talking about this is reality lolol tf u mean fabricated society
Drugs that alter one's conciseness are for those who need a crutch and have an inability to confront and control their minds and actions and environment. Psychedelics even what is called micro-dosing today is a bandage at best as with most drugs like this even if you keep the dose the same the effect can be drastically different and vary in intensity from one to the next.
Mark, that was beautiful my friend.
@@ericswain4177 let me guess. You've never tried them
@@Exhithronous Wrong I have ! and My girlfriend lost a dear friend to suicide from Psychedelic Psilocybin. It's not always the high that's the problem but the coming down or off the drug, believe me, I know. I can just imagine the potential of micro-dosing and one day coming down or off the Psilocybin and the unpredictable "FATAL" depression that could set in, especially for one trying to cope with depression already, it's like playing Russian roulette. All psychedelics are unpredictable, Good Luck.
i feel like psychedelics should be called sociatives because they are kind of the opposite of dissociatives in the sense that they connect your senses instead of unplugging you from them.
Reptileguy 112 but at the same time they can dissociate you from your body
They can do both, and sometimes at the same time
@@georgegrader9038 i feel that
I don’t want to come across as the grammar nazi but “associative” would be the right term because what is the opposite associating? Exactly

I greatly respect psychedelic mushrooms. They helped a lot with my depression
@@ThetennisDr Doesn't 4 aco dmt convert to psilocin in the body?
@@l.p.5499 Psychedelics are very different from weed in my opinion. The experience will let u see things from an entirely new perspective, and most of the benefits are felt after the experiences has ended
@@l.p.5499 They are completly different. I have been a heavy weed smoker for 4 years and recently gotten into psychedelics and there is a huge difference. it will help disolve your fears and PTSD with the right mindset that you want to. But not comparable at all for what you get out of it.
@@bradleymyers Well, another question I have is, will it make you all panicky and freaking out and stuff like that. The reason why I ask is because if I smoke pot it makes me freak out and think I'm dying. I don't know, my brain is probably just messed up.

Marijuana makes a lot of people paranoid. (You're not weird.)
Mirror work is one of my favorite activities, my face infinitely swirling, feeling that I'm not just one living thing, but seeing that I'm a collection of many smaller things living in harmony
Travis Evans yes I agree, looking in the mirror isn’t all that scary
I looked in thhthe mirror while on lsd and saw the face of Adolf Hitler.
Much later i heard that that house had been used by te Nazi´s for interrogation during their occupation of Europe.
In the same house,
I did a small experiment: I was not drinking any alcohol then, but my boss had given me a bottle of sherry and 2 glasses for a job well done. So i sat, meditated, and asked a question: what is alcohol? Then i drank 2 small glasses of sherry and lay down.
About 10 minutes later a carpet of all black inscts, spider like, entered the room and crawled towards me. Terrifying. I knew it was a hallucination but could do nothing to stop it. I could not utter any sound.Paralised with fear.
That was 45 years ago. Mind is a strange and tricky place.
Nowadays, i just shift focus and enter the Transcendent anytime. No need for any drugs.
@@gammaraygem: Meditation, along with, or after psychedelics is extremely valuable and those natural substances do aid and improve your meditations.
@@sandrastreifel6452 "those natural substances do aid and improve your meditations".This may be true for some, and not so much for others. In the end, even Terence McKenna did not make a lot of improvement compared to Ram Das.
With all his knowledge and experience, he still was trapped in the mind.
I see Psycheldelic users who have blown up ego´s and think they are so great, but actually horrible people.
Psyechedelics, if used correctly, may give some insight using it once or twice, and stimulate to start meditation, but i also see, that it becomes a hindrance once the level of psycvhedelics is reached "naturally", via meditation. The ego strikes back at such a point, and all advance disappears because the "body-memory" triggers the ego back into action. And then it is much harder to get rid of.
Psychedelics do nothing to evaporate the ego.
@@gammaraygem that sucks
I actually emailed Michael Pollan and he responded to me, wasn't a full on conversation, but I still really appreciated that he took the time out to respond to me after reading my rather long winded message.
Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it’s just so hard to source here
I've been microdosing on the batch of mushrooms I got from one guy online for the last few months for depression and the results have been immeasurable. The world has beauty again whereas before it was grey and painful.
Psilocybin containing mushrooms save my life. The drastically reduced my benzodiazepine withdrawal allowing me to quite illicit pill addiction after three years of heavy daily use before it would had became medically dangerous to quit
Tripping and microdosing are not really bad but find a good mycologist Who will teach you the right things you need to know
How do i get them?

Psychedelic's definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, they really helped me.
I feel like, especially these days, everybody is struggling with mental health and could benefit from careful/intentional therapeutic use of substances like these.
Psychedelics helped me a lot, they are the reason why i didn't take my life when I was at my end. I was stripped of my ego and saw the beauty of life and interconnectivity and even though i still battle anxiety and depression, l'm doing better everyday and will never think in such a self destructive way again.

If you fail to see the clever nuance he tried to make then you’re probably addicted to reality yourself
@@chrispouliot1599 probably you're right. I didn't tried to insult anyone just was curious what he meant.
Duumek kk
The way i see his comment is that prior to using psychedelics, he was too caught up with the material/superficial world
See, when you get psychedelic experiences, you start to see things as they really are and start to pick up on subtleties
Hence why i said that if you fail to see the nuance, that you were probably yourself still “addicted to reality” implying that your conditioning still makes you see things from the “material/superficial” perspective that just blocks you from seeing things from another optics
Does that make any sense or am i sounding way too much pseudo intellectual?
This is how i feel, i appreciate therapy and the access to so many sources of help but you are the only person whos going to ever truly understand you and i feel like shrooms really do give me the opportunity to heal myself because its just me with me.

Where can I get them?

Psilocybin can offer a means to reconnect to our true nature-our authentic self-and thereby help us find meaning in our lives.
Psychedelics have the potential to actually work at some root to have some healing potential that are much more growth oriented whereas current treatments seem to be more oriented towards suppressing
Shrooms are the safest recreational drug to take, it should be made available every where.

It is strange that many are afraid to look in the mirror. This is a very cool experience, I looked in the mirror many times using different dosages and it was always a fascinating experience.
You have identified the problem and offered a solution. Very well done. Unfortunately I think we have passed the point of no return.
His book is accurate and truthful. This presentation is just a beginning
Thank you .I enjoyed this very much .
I just experienced my first “bad trip”, i induced an anxiety attack about specific things troubling me in life, i came to the realization that my anxiety was about hypothetical situations that may not even happen, my overwhelming visuals were halted and all i could feel in myself was pure light and love. I had solved the biggest thing troubling me in life with the help of LSD. I can honestly say that this drug has cured my anxiety and depression about my future, my life seems so bright ahead of me. I wish all of you luck in finding your own way❤️
Come back to this comment within a year, to see if it still applies.
I don't believe a trip can clinically 'cure' anything to be honest. When you have scientific evidence besides some random fMRI scan of the same single brain on acid.
BTW feeling sad isn't the same as depression, if you didn't know that already. If you go to a psychiatrist or doctor and he gives you a diagnosis, you can call tell me you suffered from a major depressive disorder.
Depression is a lifelong illness, if you've had 3 depressive episodes, the chance of having a next one in the near or further future is almost certain.
What about anxiety ?
Hopefully this works for you. It's possible to get a mental breakthrough with or without pychedelics. I do recall everything was so beautiful when I was stoned, and so dismal when I came down.
@@kjell159: There’s compelling scientific evidence of long-lasting improvement for people with PTSD, Major Mood Disorders resistant to other treatment, and those in end of life care. Depression isn’t just sadness; anxiety isn’t just feeling nervous, but psychedelic-assisted-therapy has a very different mechanism of action from antidepressant medication, or from ECT. Those are essential medical care, but psychedelics are, too!
i hv facing SAD from last 4 years can i also try shroom for this type anxiety 😭
Wonderful book! We have to safe the Earth right now. Everybody should make a «trip» in the nature!
If only!

One of the best talks on the subject I ever heard.
His trip report from the garden is just perfect
LSD and mushrooms completely changed my whole outlook on life..I became a better version of myself.
This experience gave me a lot of confidence about myself and a bunch of bad thought/behaviour pattern were broken. One of these was pretty bad OCD that made me wash my hands alot..it gave me a lot of hope that things will be fine, this is the one thing that I heard throughout the trip. The main reason for the trip was my severe Depression and it definitely helped me. Before all I could do was lay in bed, now I am trying to rebuild my life one step at a time which wasn't possible before.
Last year, I took shrooms thinking it was going to hit like an edible or something. Shit was scary at first but amazing once you start getting deeper into your thoughts
It’s so difficult to describe depression to someone who’s never been there because it’s not sadness... Psychedelic are the reason why I didn't take my life when I was at my end.i was stripped of my ego and saw the beauty of life and interconnectivity
Psychedelic’s have ways to deal with mental health issues like anxiety and depression, but it’s just so hard to source here
I've been having this constant, unbearable anxiety because of university stress..not until I came across Myco_louiis.. he really helped me!
This whole thing is pretty new to me, can I get guidance from myco_louiis?
My life changed after reading his book. It opened so many different areas to me.Thank you for this great work.
Great presentation!!!

21:13 I love to look in the mirror while I'm on psychedelics... I feel like I'm looking deep into all of my lifetimes as I change right before my eyes...
Love the stage props 👏
Others below don't. Sometimes we must simply ignore our preferences...
hhaha
Thank you, great info 👍
Michael Pollan makes sense of a convoluted magical mind set, to open your mind to endless possibilities, to natures vision.
Yes, it's the dawn of a new horizon
Ive had a psychedelic experience, and i know the benefits, would love to get in a trial, i need some more answers
wow! i was watching that for half an hour? very amazing and eye opening talk. i might have to go for a walk
That was an excellent intro... cheers to the reader/writer of that intro :)
I also met the creator. I recognized it as my father(masculine).
I dissolved into the universe like water into dry dirt. Complete unity with the all that is.
At this moment I consider it my most important experience.
What a beautiful life changing experience you had! It's remarkable what psychedelics can do for us.
very droll Personally, and sincerely I say that we both know nothing at all. I was shown visually, and spoken to linguistically, but most importantly noticed that love is all that matters in the end. I wish you the best of it all my friend✌️😁
Jessica Safinya Absolutely!
ShotgunBilly It certainly is, love is the highest vibration. Shine bright 🙏🏻🌈☯️
@@shotgunbilly4150 Im debating of getting ahold of maybe 5 or 6g and doing the samething. I need think some shit over. Did you just do it at home or did you go somewhere in the woods?
Why do people ramble on about not looking at your reflection in the mirror while on psychedelics? I did it plenty of times and there’s nothing terrifying or mind shattering
There was a time in my life I was doing shit I wasn't proud of ...on a heavy trip I left my friends went home and looked in the mirror..I couldn't look myself in the eyes...ashamed of what I'd been doing...I used that as a lesson to stop the shady shit I was doing... That's just my personal experience...
Bravo
Congratulations.
Brave and true you are

Love this guy!
I feel so bewildered
a lot of proud psychonauts in that audience I love it lmao
You have to be able to let go enough to allow the awareness to go beyond all forms of physicality materiality.. to experience the Eternal immortal unboundedness that you are and all is
This lecture is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Really good speech! Very knowledgeable, and a great personality!!BRAVO!. Really good speech! Very knowledgeable, and a great personality!!BRAVO!.
incredible
Less than three?
Beautifully and very clearly expressed. Thank you Michael Pollan.
Best intro I’ve ever heard
Great open!
I had no idea using psychedelics could be beneficial. Thankyou for sharing this information.
So... have you tried some yet?
@@mikewazzupski exactly, wtf, you don't but one life
lmfao
Can truly help with a mental reset that is enlightening.
Yep, ancient cultures have known about it for thousands of years, Psilocybin mushrooms, Peyote, Ayuahasca etc... only now is it starting to become more accepted
Ketamine therapy did it for me. I discovered the source of my decades of anxiety and depression and was able to work thru it and let it go. And now I feel totally free. No more cravings for drugs and alcohol now either.
I had different experiences with ayahuasca and when I was listening to Mr. Pollan I thought that those experiences are so similar . Thanks for this amazing video. ❤🙏🏻love.
"I had to call my cardiologist before I did this." Not only was this educational but so engaging!
my ego really tried to scare me out of dropping acid. I took me three weeks to finally drop it and it was one of the best experiences I've ever had.
Same here, except for me it's been a few years lol...I'm taking them to get out of this anxious and occasionally depressed state of mind and be present again in a natural state of well being like I used to be.
Holy shit did I have a dissolution of ego? Same shit happened to me
My experiences have always thus far reminded me of our symbiotic relationship with not only the vast universe but everything around us . Thank you for this thoughtful message 🙏🏼
Looking into the mirror I saw light and energy in myself ..good energy it was amazing!!
Oh my lord I have listened to that exact piece by Bach on psychedelics!
I owned a book of Micheal Pollan “How to Change Your Mind”. My partner gave it to me and until now I am still amazed. Looking forward for my first psychedelic journey with him this year! 😍😍😍🥰🥰

Congratulations to you both
I think these tools are amazing. When I first tripped on mushrooms I was very anxious and started to get the sweats as you do. Then all of a sudden I felt powerful jolts of joy and love running through me all throughout my body, I then felt guilty that I felt soooo good and wished the same for everyone. After this I cried with happiness for a while, as if my body needed to release built up tension through crying which then put me at massive ease. Later when things were starting to wear off I had this urge to text my friends and family and connect with people to share the love. Such a fascinating substance, and I believe the mushrooms give you what you need not what you want. I feel it left me a stronger person mentally.
Same here. When I did shrooms I wanted to hug everyone in my family. Tell everyone I loved them… however my trip turned sour and made me feel extremely alone towards the end
On the same journey as we speak thanks for putting it in words
yep, it is a trip allright....
You can describe a trip for sure you the man
I have bi polar disorder, and I've been mircodosing mushrooms for the last month. 1 day on 2 days off. My life has never been better. It all seems possible. I was kinda sketched out taking it the first time, but it was just a mood enhancer. Psychedelics are literally life-saving, and it's sad that we haven't studied this enough for people with mood disorders.
It depends on the surroundings that moment. I did LSD few times in my life in the 80's, we used to called a trip. It was fun but dangerous too. Some ppl I knew back than never came out of it. Their spirit left their body and didn't come back.
I have great hope for this being used to treat Personality disorders, like Borderline Personality Disorder, which I have. The sense of self that I had was actually strengthened by LSD, and I have hope that psilocybin may do the same.
This was so enjoyable on 2g 🍄🤗👏
"opposite of spiritual is egotistical" great observation.
I'm tripping on shrooms now and I highly vouch what he's saying 😃! Thank you shrooms for helping me so much I owe my life to them! Good vibes to you all during the quarantine! ❤🍄✌🔮🌌🥳
😆😆😆😆😆 brilliant 🍄
Tripped last week wrote a banging dance tune ❤️
@@harryjoyce95 yooo
One love bro! Stay down?
started microdosing now I feel like all my fears have dissipated 😱
Some truffles came through the post a few months ago. Shared half with a friend so it was a small dose but still felt something. No intense visuals but I felt some mystical awareness and noticing the way the guitars were propped up at an angle making me think of pyramids from ancient times. My friend said He felt stoned although we were smoking a bit of weed too. Can't wait for the next trip hopefully, it will make lockdown thought as if everything is just fine and humanity's future is gonna be just fine.❤
Love the story so much, first time i got the balls to try it i turned into a blue macaw made of ginger bread and flew through an endless palace made of clear crystal and flew through the refracting rainbow light rays. All while being bundled in a blanket. Keep in mind im claustrophobic to the point where i cant hug for more than 5 seconds. I woke up the next day and could function in small spaces. Not perfectly, still get freaked out but i dont panic instantly. Much happy 😊
Look 🆙🆙 the contact got you covered 🔌
His first sentence made me like the video 👍
Thank you
