Self-professed “psychonaut” Matt Zemon discusses his book “Psychedelics for Everyone: A Beginner's Guide to these Powerful Medicines for Anxiety, Depression, Addiction, PTSD, and Expanding Consciousness." Removing the stigma around psychedelics—emerging science is demonstrating their utility for a variety of psychiatric conditions. Psilocybin, ayahuasca, ketamine, ibogaine, peyote and others are regaining currency among innovative health professionals. Zemon describes how these might work—by opening new avenues of consciousness and rejiggering neurotransmitters. We discuss safety and optimal guidelines for use. Unfortunately, prescribing is limited by draconian and antiquated drug laws. Zemon maintains what's needed are legal avenues for obtaining properly regulated medications delivered in ideal settings.

In his work, Neil is helping those with PTSD, depression, and anxiety find relief using therapy and psychedelics.

Conversations with Phil Gerbyshak - Aligning your mindset, skill set and tool set for peak performance

In this engaging episode of "The Cult of Overachievement," Phil Gerbyshak sits down with Matt Zemon to delve into the transformative potential of psychedelics and how they can impact one's journey to happiness and fulfillment. Matt, an advocate for psychedelics and the author of "Psychedelics for Everyone," shares his personal experiences and the scientific underpinnings of these substances. Here's a summary of their insightful discussion, punctuated with memorable quotes from Matt.The Road to HappinessMatt opens the conversation with his definition of happiness: "Happiness is feeling comfortable with who I am and where I'm going." This sentiment resonates deeply with Phil, who acknowledges the importance of self-acceptance and direction in life. Matt explains that his journey to this state of contentment wasn't straightforward. "I think I've spent a lot of time in my life not really being comfortable with who I am and just providing," he confesses, illustrating how his prior achievements, while impressive, didn't bring true satisfaction.The Catalyst: A Psychedelic ExperienceMatt's transition towards a happier life began in 2019 with a psychedelic experience involving magic mushrooms (psilocybin). He describes a profound six-hour session where he reconnected with his mother and felt an overwhelming sense of safety and love. This moment was a stark contrast to his everyday feelings. "I realized I felt incredibly safe and loved in that moment and then realized, wait a minute, I don't feel incredibly safe and loved in my everyday life," he recounts. This realization spurred an exploration of psychedelics under the guidance of spiritual leaders and medical professionals, ultimately leading to a broader understanding of self-worth and love.From Personal Experience to Public AdvocacyThis transformative journey inspired Matt to curate and edit his book, "Psychedelics for Everyone." His aim was to compile scientific and personal insights on psychedelics to educate a wider audience. He returned to school to obtain a master's degree in Psychology and Neuroscience, ensuring that his book was grounded in scientific literature. "I went to people who were smarter than me about different topics and asked them to contribute to this book," he explains. The book offers a comprehensive overview of various psychedelics, their legal and ethical ramifications, and practical information for those interested in exploring these substances.Challenging the Overachievement MentalityPhil and Matt explore the concept of overachievement, questioning whether psychedelics can help individuals achieve more. Matt believes that psychedelics meet people where they are, facilitating a journey within that can lead to significant personal growth. "I think what's powerful about these medicines is that it meets people wherever they are," he says. Rather than driving traditional metrics of success like sales or accolades, psychedelics encourage a broader view of achievement—one focused on living a full, balanced life.The Science Behind PsychedelicsMatt outlines the scientific mechanisms by which psychedelics affect the brain. These substances quiet the default mode network, reducing the inner narrative that often fuels anxiety and self-doubt. "The first thing it's going to do is it's going to quiet down your default mode network," Matt explains. This leads to increased neuroplasticity, allowing the brain to form new connections and facilitating a period of rapid learning and personal growth. Additionally, many users report profound spiritual experiences, gaining a deeper understanding of their place in the world.Practical Considerations and AccessibilityAccessing psychedelics in a responsible manner is crucial. Matt outlines three primary ways people can access these substances: medical models, decriminalization movements, and psychedelic churches. Each path has its own advantages and challenges, from cost considerations to the level of support provided during the experience. He emphasizes the importance of preparation and integration, suggesting resources like his book "Beyond the Trip" for those embarking on their psychedelic journey.Final ThoughtsAs the episode concludes, Matt encourages listeners who are curious about psychedelics to explore these tools with an open mind. "If you're still listening to this podcast or this stream and now you're 30 minutes in, my instinct is you're looking for permission," he observes. He reassures listeners that they are not alone and offers his support through his website, inviting them to book a call for personalized guidance.Pull Quotes1.

It's your job to take your most empowered approach and become the conductor of your life – however you get there.I'll also take you through a personal revelation sparked by an emotional exchange with my mom, showcasing the importance of feeling our emotions, even if they're painful, to cultivate a more compassionate existence.This journey isn't just for the psychedelic-curious—it's for anyone seeking to live a life filled with mindfulness and authentic creation. Practices like meditation and breathwork will help you untether in the same way magic mushrooms will. At the end of this episode, I guide you through a gentle breathing exercise to deepen your connection with your body and the inherent magic of your being.

Angela talks to author and psychedelics expert Matt Zemon, about psychedelics and their potential for personal growth and healing. Matt shares his personal journey with psychedelics, including his first experience and the profound insights he gained. They discuss the importance of intention, set, and setting when using psychedelics, as well as the different types of psychedelics and their effects. Matt emphasises the role of integration in harnessing the transformative power of these substances and how they can help individuals connect with their true selves and experience a sense of interconnectedness   KEY TAKEAWAYS Psychedelics can be a catalyst for personal growth and self-discovery, but they are not a cure-all and should be approached with caution. The three key factors for reducing risk when using psychedelics are source (knowing where the medicine comes from), set (having the right mindset and intention), and setting (creating a safe and supportive physical environment). Different psychedelics have different effects and purposes. For example, MDMA can be used for treating PTSD, psilocybin can facilitate deep introspection, and DMT can provide profound spiritual experiences. Integration work is crucial after a psychedelic experience to incorporate the insights and lessons into everyday life. Psychedelics can also be beneficial for end-of-life care, helping individuals and their families navigate the process with more peace and acceptance. BEST MOMENTS "The first thing they're going to do is quiet down your default mode network. So that's that inner narrator that is constantly telling you you're not enough, you need to do more, you're not worthy." "It's a catalyst for remembering and with that quick vantage point of 'oh, I see I don't have to feel the way I've been feeling, I don't have to think the way I've been thinking, I can then move into the integration period after the psychedelic is off." "I think that combination of three medicines over a few days is really a powerful arc." "It's so interesting what you're saying. So interesting. I remember being with my father when he passed away and just realizing in those final moments, the just how much human touch could make a difference."

Everyone seems to have an opinion about psychedelics these days.   Doctors and therapists see them as potential treatments for things like anxiety, depression and PTSD. Spiritual communities believe they open us up to the divine. Politicians debate whether they should be legal or illegal.    I have to admit that when I first heard people talking about them, I was scared.   I'm not a big fan of substance use of any kind, and the idea of a “drug” becoming mainstream concerned me.   But when some respected psychologists and colleagues of mine started talking about the healing power of psychedelics — people who were far from the 1960s “Summer of Love” stereotype — I knew the topic at least deserved my honest research.   As I dug deeper into the science behind psychedelics and understood how they worked in the mind, I began to realize they weren't about escaping but about going deeper into oneself by quieting the ego and opening the door to new parts of our consciousness.    But, I wanted to make sure my opinion was backed up by accurate, science-based, factual research. And there are few people who I've found better informed on this topic than Matt Zemon.   Matt was once a fellow skeptic like me who also became convinced through research and experience that psychedelics can play a positive role in therapeutic and medical settings.   He is one of the most grounded, scientific voices I've heard on this topic — perfect for anyone who simply wants to learn more and see what you think for yourself — and I am thrilled to have him share his wealth of knowledge in this episode.   Listen to discover: Matt's story of opening his mind to psychedelics – and how they changed his life Safety considerations for psychedelic use  Whether or not psychedelics are addictive (and how they can help treat addiction) The different types of psychedelics and how they work in the mind How and why psychedelics can help us change our thought patterns The importance of therapeutic integration after a psychedelic experience Resources for doing your own research and safe psychedelic use The choice to have a psychedelic experience is very personal, and I would never tell someone they should or should not try a powerful substance like these.    But I do think we should all do our due diligence to research new breakthroughs in healing with an open mind — which I hope this episode helps you do.    Because whether you get there through a psychedelic or not, allowing yourself to see new perspectives and change your mind is how you grow as a human…and that's always a path worth pursuing.   "In that first six- or seven-hour [psychedelic] journey, the entire way I look and interact with the world shifted." - Matt Zemon   "Physically, these substances are relatively safe." - Matt Zemon   "Not all psychedelics are the same, and you don't want to be on certain medications and taking a psychedelic." - Matt Zemon   "The psychedelic process can help us remember a way that we used to think, maybe before we had adopted those behaviors...and from that rememberance, we can then start to take the steps to change our life." - Matt Zemon   "It's not so much that [psychedelics are] a cure...they're really catalysts for change." - Matt Zemon   "It's not a magic pill. None of them are a magic pill." - Michelle Chalfant   "I felt like I was sitting with God each and every time. It was the most beautiful thing I've ever done." - Michelle Chalfant   "The most important thing was the integration. What do you do after you've had this experience and then how do you integrate that into your life?" - Michelle Chalfant   "In the psychedelic experience, a few things are going to happen. Your default mode network...is going to quiet down...Neurons fire together that haven't fired together in a long time...In this process, it's common that you will then feel connected to all things and all people. You'll feel loved. You'll feel enough. And that is, in my opinion, the reclaiming of your true self." - Matt Zemon   "When you know you're enough and you know you're loved, you're starting to take away the masks you've put on and have been put on you." - Matt Zemon   LINKS & RESOURCES   Join the 30-Day Journaling Challenge  https://theadultchair.com/30days    Tanasi  https://tanasi.com/  Use code ADULT to get 25% off your first order   Matt Zemon Website https://mattzemon.com/   "Psychedelics for Everyone" (Matt Zemon Book) https://www.amazon.com/Psychedelics-Everyone-Beginners-Depression-Consciousness/dp/B0BCS7NM9H    Matt Zemon Instagram https://www.instagram.com/matt.zemon/    "How to Change Your Mind" Book https://www.amazon.com/Change-Your-Mind-Consciousness-Transcendence/dp/0735224153    Spirit Pharmacist Psychedelic Consultations/Education https://www.spiritpharmacist.com/    "A Really Good Day" Book https://www.amazon.com/Really-Good-Day-Microdosing-Difference-ebook/dp/B01FPH0IUO/    Safe Drug Testing https://drugsdata.org/  https://dancesafe.org/    MORE ADULT CHAIR   The Adult Chair® Website https://theadultchair.com      The Adult Chair® Coaching Certification - Join the 2024 Waitlist!  https://theadultchair.com/certification    STAY CONNECTED   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themichellechalfant    Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheMichelleChalfant/    The Adult Chair® Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theadultchair/    YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Michellechalfant

It's clear by now the stigma that once surrounded psychedelics has lost some of its power. With the use of psychedelics like Psilocybin, Ayahuasca, and even LSD becoming much more mainstream through personalities like Joe Rogan and all we hear about “plant-medicine,” from some of the most influential people today, it's time we all start taking a closer look at the ins and outs, pros and cons, and features and setbacks of the world of psychedelics. Today I am joined by Matt Zemon, a Master in Medical Science in both psychology and neuroscience, and author of his latest book, Psychedelics for Everyone. I am naturally a bit of a skeptic so I took that approach on a topic I admittedly don't know a whole lot about. We discuss why the stigma around psychedelics and how did that come to be, the use of psychedelics to treat shame, blame, and guilt and other symptoms of “treatment resistant PTSD,” how psychedelics have been used to help people overcome crippling alcohol and drug addiction, the spiritual journey one may discover on his exploration into these medicines, side effects to consider, and how many men are using psychedelics to expand their consciousness.   SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:   Psychedelics is a technology The psychedelic journey is often a top 5 experience Is there a benefit to shame, blame, and guilt Defining PTSD Psychedelics are not for everyone There's more to it than just “trust the science” What is a psychedelic?
