In this episode, Joe Moore talks with Megan Portnoy, a doctoral candidate in clinical psychology at Antioch University New England, about how ontological design can reshape the environments used in psychedelic-assisted therapy. Megan explains how physical space is not just a backdrop but an active participant in the therapeutic process, influencing emotion, cognition, and healing. She recently won an award for her presentation on this topic at PsychedelX. They explore how design principles that foster awe, play, and flexibility can deepen integration and expand what's possible in clinical settings. The conversation also examines how psychedelic communities can balance openness with discernment, apply more psychological rigor, and avoid falling into ungrounded or high-demand group dynamics. This rich discussion bridges psychology, philosophy, design, and culture—inviting us to think critically about not only how we use psychedelics, but the spaces, systems, and stories that shape our collective evolution.  

How can Internal Family Systems help us prepare for, experience, and integrate psychedelic journeys in a truly Self-led way? And what if Self itself can be the journey, without medicine at all? In this episode, I talk with Nick Brüss, an IFS practitioner and licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in psychedelic-assisted therapy. What I loved about this conversation is how grounded and humble Nick is about the work. He reminds us that psychedelics can open the door, but Self is what does the healing.  Why listen: Many people are curious about how psychedelics and IFS intersect. This conversation goes deeper into integration, humility, and what it really means to let Self lead before, during, and after expanded states. In this conversation, we explore: How IFS can guide and ground psychedelic experiences through Self Energy Why integration, not the journey itself, is where true healing happens How to meet expanded states with curiosity, consent, and care for all parts How to partner with the medicine to turn toward what needs our attention, bringing the same kind of compassion and curiosity we bring to our parts The nervous system and trauma dynamics that often surface after psychedelic experiences How Self can open the same sense of connection and wonder that psychedelics reveal The risks of spiritual bypass and how to stay Self-led  What an ethical, Self-led approach to psychedelic healing looks like Favorite Quotes: “The real question is, are we partnering with the medicine, or are we giving it all the power?” — Nick Brüss “Psychedelics don't heal anyone. They open a window. What heals is the relationship with Self.” — Nick Brüss Connect with Nick at www.apracticeoffreedom.com Episode Sponsor Pisgah Coaching Institute: Founded by IFS-trained master coach Brian Jaudon, a pioneer in the integration of IFS and coaching for more than two decades.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik sits down with speculative fiction author and trained psychedelic facilitator Diana Colleen to unpack trauma recovery, the realities and limits of psychedelic-assisted therapy (without naming specific medicines), and her provocative debut novel They Could Be Saviors—which reframes “billionaireism” as a social sickness. This direct, no-fluff conversation explores set & setting, integration, consent, safety, wealth inequality, climate accountability, and the difference between recreational use and therapeutic containers. If you care about mental health, trauma healing, leadership ethics, wealth concentration, or climate responsibility, this episode gives you a grounded lens you can use—today.   About the Guest  : Diana Colleen is a speculative fiction author and trained psychedelic facilitator. Her debut novel, They Could Be Saviors, challenges cultural blind spots around extreme wealth and power while drawing from her personal healing journey with psychedelic-assisted therapy in professional, regulated settings.   Key Takeaways  : Psychedelic-assisted therapy is a container, not a shortcut: outcomes depend on set (mindset/intentions), setting (safety/support), and integration after sessions. Not recreational: therapy work is distinct from concerts/party contexts; trained facilitators and screening reduce risk and support trauma processing. Hope is a catalyst: one properly supported session can interrupt suicidal ideation; long-term change still requires consistent integration and support. Ethics of wealth: framing billionaireism as hoarding surfaces social and environmental costs; calling it an “illness” invites accountability without dehumanization. Climate and power: a small number of companies drive a disproportionate share of emissions; leadership choices have cascading public-health impacts. Nuance over extremes: billionaires aren't heroes or villains by default—human backstories and trauma shape choices; responsibility for impact remains. Regulation vs. capture: therapeutic use should be regulated for safety without turning into extractive, monopolized pharma pipelines. Culture change through story: fiction can challenge blind spots and make complex debates discussable without shutting people down.   How to Connect with the Guest   Website: https://www.dianacolleenauthor.com/ Newsletter & book info: via her site's Connect page Ask for reviews: Listeners are invited to read the novel and leave an honest review.   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

In this talk, he combines insights from psychedelic experiences with an intriguing view put forward by Spinoza: that the mind can enter a rare state of eternity, not as a spirit enduring beyond the corpse, but as a mind collapsing into the eternal.Don't hesitate to email us at podcast@iai.tv with your thoughts or questions on the episode!To witness such debates live buy tickets for our upcoming festival: https://howthelightgetsin.org/festivals/And visit our website for many more articles, videos, and podcasts like this one: https://iai.tv/You can find everything we referenced here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Why has America struggled so much to effectively manage the opioid use crisis? One of the answers, as you'll learn in this eye-opening episode of Raise the Line, is rooted in laws and attitudes from the early 20th century that removed addiction from the realm of medicine and defined it as a moral failing.  “The federal Harrison Act of 1914 forbade any physician from prescribing opioids to people with addiction, so it became more the purview of law enforcement or behavioral health or religion,” says Dr. Melody Glenn, who regularly confronts the consequences of this history during shifts in the emergency department at Banner-University Medical Center in Tucson, Arizona. And as Glenn explains to host Caleb Furnas, the resulting stigma associated with addiction has extended to the treatments for it as well, especially methadone, despite its effectiveness. Drawing on her dual expertise in emergency and addiction medicine, Glenn dispels misconceptions that medication-assisted treatment merely replaces one addiction with another, and emphasizes that harm reduction is critical to saving lives. Her desire to break prevailing stigmas led her to discover the story of Dr. Marie Nyswander, who pioneered methadone maintenance therapy in the 1960s and is featured in Dr. Glenn's new book, Mother of Methadone: A Doctor's Quest, a Forgotten History, and a Modern-Day Crisis. You'll leave this instructive interview understanding the roots of our flawed approach to addiction treatment, meeting an overlooked pioneer in the field, and admiring a devoted and compassionate physician who is following in her footsteps.  Mentioned in this episode:Banner-University Medical CenterMother of Methadone book If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Today, we'll be talking about psychedelics and addiction psychiatry, what they are, how they work, and what the research actually tells us. CME: Take the CME Post-Test for this EpisodePublished On: 10/13/2025Duration: 23 minutes, 38 secondsNoah Capurso, MD, MHS, and Snehal Bhatt, MD, have disclosed no relevant financial or other interests in any commercial companies pertaining to this educational activity.

Dr. K breaks down how psychedelics actually work not from hype or hearsay, but through neuroscience, psychiatry, and lived experience. He explains that psychedelics don't “heal” you by themselves; they temporarily put the brain into edit mode, a state of heightened neuroplasticity where your thoughts, emotions, and physiology can be rewritten for better or worse. Through a detailed look at serotonin receptors, brain connectivity, and decades of clinical research, Dr. K shows how substances like psilocybin, LSD, DMT, ayahuasca, and MDMA can rewire the brain and why they can just as easily cause harm if used without structure, safety, or integration. The episode also explores why guided psychedelic therapy — in a clinical or spiritual context — can lead to long-term healing, while unsupervised trips can lock trauma in even deeper. Dr. K ties it all together by connecting ego death to meditation and Vedic philosophy, revealing how both psychedelics and deep meditative practice dissolve the sense of self — and why that dissolution is often the real mechanism of healing. Topics include: The serotonin 2A receptor and why psychedelics increase neuroplasticity and neurogenesis How “edit mode” rewires your brain and how it can backfire Why integration therapy is critical after a psychedelic experience Set and setting: the real difference between healing and harm Which psychedelics work best for depression, PTSD, and addiction Why microdosing feels good but may not create long-term change The role of ego death and why it mirrors advanced meditation experiences Psychedelics vs. antidepressants - what the data actually says about efficacy and risk This episode is a deep dive into the science, safety, and spirituality of psychedelics offering clarity in a space often clouded by hype, myth, and misinformation.

Connor Beaton, founder of ManTalks, joins MTM. He in a transformative conversation about shadow work and its profound impact on personal choices and mental well-being. Throughout the discussion, Connor delves deep into the concept of the "shadow self," exploring how acknowledging and integrating the hidden, often suppressed aspects of our personalities leads to greater self-awareness and genuine change. We candidly address the role of shame in our lives—how it can serve as both a motivator and a destructive force—and why many people unconsciously use shame-based narratives as a way to push themselves, often resulting in cycles of self-sabotage and emotional stagnation. Connor illustrates how confronting shadow elements like guilt, regret, and self-doubt enables us to break free from repeating negative patterns. Listeners will learn actionable strategies for revealing and working through feelings of shame, while gaining tools for healthier inner dialogue and compassionate self-reflection.You'll learn how self-compassion, accepting past mistakes, and building more authentic relationships—cornerstones of Connor's approach to men's emotional growth and healing.Feeling stuck?

Kim Meka shares her journey from narcissistic abuse to healing through plant medicine and radical self-discovery. After escaping a controlling marriage that stripped away her identity, Kim found restoration through ketamine, ayahuasca, and psilocybin therapies. She also discovered her ruptured breast implants were contributing to systemic inflammation, leading to their removal and a profound shift in her relationship with self-image and authenticity. 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Narcissistic abuse is about control, not ego - True narcissism is a personality disorder where abusers systematically isolate victims from support systems, control finances, and erode self-worth through manipulation and gaslighting. Plant medicine can reset the nervous system - Kim's PTSD and trauma were effectively treated through ketamine (for depression), ayahuasca (for self-love and inner child healing), and psilocybin (for complete PTSD resolution). Physical and mental trauma are interconnected - Kim's ruptured breast implants went undetected for years, contributing to systemic inflammation that mirrored her emotional state during trauma. Healing requires integration work - While plant medicine provided breakthroughs, lasting healing came from daily practices: journaling, meditation, exercise, and surrounding herself with authentic relationships. Rock bottom can be a foundation for transformation - Losing everything—money, possessions, identity—forced Kim to rebuild authentically, leading to deeper fulfillment than her previous "perfect" life ever provided. FEATURED PRODUCT Bliss - Kim's journey highlights how trauma creates chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation. Bliss supports adrenal function and helps regulate cortisol levels—essential for recovering from trauma and managing the daily stress of healing work discussed in this episode.

It's about personal growth.Joel gets real about the shadows behind success—depression, marriage struggles, and what happens when achievement isn't enough—and how a single psychedelic journey cracked him wide open. We go there: the messy middle of building a company, the healing work that saved his marriage, and why true leadership always starts within.We talk about:⚡ How he built a multimillion-dollar company while still in college⚡ Why employee-first culture is his secret weapon⚡ The spiritual awakening that changed his life—and his marriage⚡ The role psychedelics can play in healing trauma and addiction⚡ Why “marriage coaching” might just be your next power moveThis one's deep, funny, and brutally honest—the kind of conversation that reminds you success means nothing if you don't know yourself.

Family healing is one of the most challenging and rewarding paths of working with plant medicine. At some point on this path, you may find yourself in a place of sacred solitude. When old relationships are falling away or changing, but new ones haven't started to sprout yet. This can be a lonely place of feeling like you don't belong. That there is something wrong with you. That you will never find your people. That's simply not true. You can come to peace with your origin family, even if your relationships change. You can choose your family by embodying the values and vibration you want and attracting from that place of magnetism. It is not hard to make friends when you are confident and present in your authentic self. You can only elevate your relationships with others when you come to peace and love in relationship with yourself. When you face and feel the feelings handed down to you by your grandparents and your parents and everyone who came before. When you stop separating yourself from Nature and Spirit, and look in the mirror and see that God has been here inside and all around you the whole time. When you decide to believe a new truth. On this week's show, I'm sharing about healing the wounds of family. Deciding you can choose your family. And learning how to let go of limiting beliefs about the world and what matters through authentic, honest relationship. Healing the wounds of our ancestors, finding your tribe, and the power of love to outlast time and space.

The Mind-at-Large Project is a three-year, multidisciplinary initiative exploring consciousness and its role in reality. Mind-at-Large seeks to expand this paradigm - investigating the mind's presence across scales, from quantum systems and living organisms to ecosystems and the cosmos itself. This series examines ideas such as panpsychism, pantheism, idealism, 4E cognition, animism, perspectivism, and non-human intelligence, while also engaging with extraordinary phenomenologies found in psychedelic experiences, mystical states, and anomalous consciousness.TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) – Introduction: The Mind-at-Large Project – Consciousness Beyond the Brain(02:30) – Setting the Stage: Bridging Science, Philosophy & Mysticism(06:10) – What Does “Mind-at-Large” Mean?

Interviewers: Joe Moore & Anne Philippi Guests: TK Wonder & Cipriana Quann (The Quann Sisters) Recorded: June 18 during MAPS PS 2025 Content note: This episode discusses childhood sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, suicidal ideation, disordered eating, and recovery. Identical twins, writers, and culture-shapers TK Wonder and Cipriana Quann join Joe and Anne for a frank, generous conversation about identity, resilience, and the long arc of healing. Cipriana recounts launching Urban Bush Babes in 2011 to center women of color in beauty and fashion—work that led to a Vogue “day-in-the-life” feature and collaborations with couture houses. TK shares the parallel path of her music career (opening for artists from Sting and Nas to Erykah Badu and Queens of the Stone Age) and the sisters' ongoing writing, public speaking, and mental-health advocacy. They reflect on the fashion industry's policing of natural hair, how those daily microaggressions erode self-worth, and why legal protections like the CROWN Act matter. The heart of the episode is their survival story: a decade of abuse by their father, endured separately yet witnessed together. Seeing one another live through it—“a physical manifestation of survival,” as they put it—kept them alive. As adults, daily check-ins remain their core practice. Psychedelics entered their lives years later. With careful set and setting, education, and professional support, psychedelic sessions—especially ibogaine—helped surface grief, release shame, and reframe entrenched coping strategies. Cipriana's first extended session unlocked tears she'd been forced to suppress as a child; TK describes a transformative ibogaine experience that catalyzed a decisive shift away from refined sugar and ultra-processed foods toward sustained movement, earlier mornings, and mindful nourishment. Both emphasize that psychedelics are not “magic pills” in isolation: integration, therapy, community, and lifestyle design make insights durable. The conversation also tackles safety and access. The sisters stress working with experienced facilitators and medical oversight, naming that these modalities aren't for everyone. They call for more affordability and BIPOC representation in a field that can still feel exclusionary, while holding a wide tent vision—everyone deserves the chance to heal. They note how narratives are changing (from early-2000s panic to mainstream book-club conversations), and how stories alongside science move culture and policy. Highlights Fashion, hair politics, and the CROWN Act's importance. Sisterhood as lifeline; daily check-ins as grown-up therapy. First sessions: somatic release, grief, and reframing shame. Ibogaine's role in behavior change; why integration is the bridge. Safety, access, and representation: making healing containers truly welcoming. If you're exploring this work: educate deeply, choose qualified support, prioritize integration, and remember—your past is a chapter, not your whole story.

Curt Kearney joins today to share his personal story of turning to psychedelics as a last resort and how that decision changed the entire trajectory of his life.This is a deeply grounded conversation about trauma, treatment-resistant depression, and the inner parts we exile to survive. Curt breaks down how Internal Family Systems (IFS) and psychedelic-assisted therapy can work together to bring those parts back into relationship, sometimes for the first time in decades. This is not a conversation about quick fixes. It's about safety, trust, and the power of showing up for the parts of ourselves we were taught to bury.This Episode Covers:Curt's first experience with LSD at 17 and how it altered his mental health journey.The difference between exiles and protectors in IFS.How psychedelics can amplify self-compassion and internal clarity.The importance of preparation and consent in psychedelic work.A powerful case study of MDMA-assisted therapy for PTSD.Why “bad trips” often come from neglected parts not feeling safe.The role of integration and ongoing relationship with inner parts.What happens when the monster inside turns out to be you.Connect with Curt:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/curt-kearney-39824643/Website - https://www.curtkearney.com/Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.Mad love!The podcast is now on YouTube!

“We don't view a person with chronic pain as someone who has a chronic illness and the effect of that is we can't follow patients continuously over prolonged periods of time,” says Dr. Jacob Hascalovici, a neurologist and pain specialist based in New York City.  In co-founding Bliss Health, Dr. Jacob, as he is known, has set out to create a continuous care model for chronic pain treatment that matches the approach taken for patients with diabetes or high blood pressure. The Bliss Health formula includes an initial meeting with a physician that produces a care plan; remote therapeutic monitoring on an ongoing basis; and a monthly meeting with a nurse to review data and determine next steps, including additional appointments with physicians as needed.  All of this occurs via a digital platform which provides a welcome option for patients with mobility issues and can fill gaps in access to specialists, especially in rural areas. Dr. Jacob is also hoping to make chronic pain patents feel respected, which is not always the case in their encounters with the healthcare system. “Because pain is not something that can be seen or measured, oftentimes patients feel marginalized, dismissed and disempowered by providers.” Join Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith for a valuable conversation that also touches on policy changes that could strengthen telemedicine, and has details on the first non-opioid based pain medication to receive FDA approval in over 20 years.Mentioned in this episode:Bliss Health If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In another powerful episode of the Bare Knuckle Recovery Podcast, hosts Tommy Streeter and Nate Moellering welcome special guest Warren Gumpel, a leading voice and educator on ketamine and psychedelic-assisted therapy.Warren shares his deeply personal journey, including his struggle with depression, anxiety, and substance use issues which eventually led him to a life-saving discovery: ketamine treatment. Ten years ago, after a couple of treatments, his depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts were gone.Inside the ConversationThe Power of Neuroplasticity: Warren breaks down a critical concept: ketamine is not a "silver bullet". Instead, it acts as a powerful catalyst and provides a window of heightened neuroplasticity —the brain's ability to build new thought patterns and neurons —allowing a person to implement the necessary behavioral changes in their daily life.Dissociation and Trauma: The discussion dives into the dissociative aspect of ketamine, explaining how it temporarily shuts off the brain's "default mode network" (the inner ego and narrative). This process allows an individual to gain a critical distance from traumatic memories, enabling them to re-examine and recontextualize them without the overwhelming physiological "fight or flight" response; an effect that works synergistically with therapies like EMDR.Best Practices and Safety: The conversation covers the difference between outpatient and inpatient care with inpatient facilities like Allendale Treatment offering the optimal environment for building durable habits away from triggers. Warren stresses the importance of a multidisciplinary screening approach and cautions against recreational use, emphasizing that these medicines must be used as part of a therapeutic process with medical supervision.The Psychedelic Horizon: Warren gives an exciting look at the future of mental health treatment, touching on the efficacy of MDMA for PTSD (especially for veterans) and psilocybin for treatment-resistant depression.A Story of Redemption: Hear the incredible story behind the documentary "Lamar Odom Reborn", where Warren helped the NBA star through his own ketamine and Ibogaine treatments following a near-fatal overdose. This moving example showcases the incredible hope and transformation possible for those struggling with trauma and addiction.Don't miss this crucial conversation about innovation, hope, and the critical work being done to change the landscape of mental health and addiction recovery.Discover more episodes and watch the video version of this episode on YouTube or at www.bareknucklerecovery.comWatch this episode here: https://www.bareknucklerecovery.com/

Episode 25 with Marsha Rosenbaum, PhD, is a journey back through the psychedelic time machine. Marsha started her medicine journey back in the 1970s, both as an underground explorer of psychedelics and an above-ground researcher for the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). For nearly 20 years, she was the Principal Investigator on grants from NIDA to study women heroin addicts, cocaine, methadone maintenance treatment, and MDMA. She then moved to drug policy and education at the Drug Policy Alliance in San Francisco (where she is Director Emerita) where she founded the Safety First drug education project. Back when Marsha, got her start, the general view was that all drugs were bad, which then led to the creation of the war on drugs and all its devastating impacts. Marsha is one of the many voices that has helped our society to come to the new understanding that some drugs can actually be very beneficial and that the drug war did more damage than any drug ever did. Join us for a trip through the psychedelic decades as we explore the amazing contribution of Marsha Rosenbaum to the evolution of drug research, policy and education.   Learn More About Marsha Rosenbaum, PhD Drug Policy Alliance: drugpolicy.org Safety First Program: https://drugpolicy.org/resource/safety-first/ Before You Trip: beforeyoutrip.org Coalition for Psychedelic Safety and  Education: https://www.coalitionforpsychedelicsafety.org   Connect with Carla If you're inspired by this episode and want to stay connected, follow Carla and Psychedelic Divas on social media or visit the website to get your Psychedelic Safety Guide Including What to Do When Things Go Wrong: ·        Website: PsychedelicDivas.com ·        Carla's Coaching: CarlaDetchon.com ·        Instagram: @psychedelicdivas ·        YouTube: @carladetchon  ·        Subscribe & Review: If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review Psychedelic Divas.

After two deployments and a solid run in the Marine Corps, Susannah Stokes did what a lot of vets do-she took her leadership skills into the corporate world. But even with a great job at Facebook and everything looking good on paper, something still felt off. This episode talks about what happens when the structure goes away, and you're left trying to figure out who you are. Susannah opens up about feeling undervalued, disconnected, and stuck in roles that didn't reflect what she was capable of. She talks about the identity crash after service, the limits of traditional therapy, and how psychedelics helped her see things differently, without numbing out. We also get into how she's helping others now and what legal psychedelic support can look like.

In recent months, public health advocates in the United States have raised concerns about proposed changes to vaccine policy, cuts to food assistance programs, rollbacks of environmental protections and reductions in public health staffing. Chief among them has been Dr. Georges Benjamin who, as executive director of the American Public Health Association (APHA) since 2002, has led national efforts to create a healthier America. Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith recently sat down with Dr. Benjamin to understand more about the current state of public health and explore the path forward, and learned that a top priority for APHA is battling the misinformation that Dr. Benjamin believes is fueling support for many of these changes. “The challenge we have right now is that as a society, we've gone into our little corners and live in our own ecosystems. More people are getting their information from a single source and they're not validating that information to make sure that it's true.” Tune into this thoughtful and timely conversation to hear Dr. Benjamin's advice for curbing the spread of misinformation, how APHA is trying to help people understand the value of public health initiatives, and what the U.S. can learn from other countries about improving public health. Mentioned in this episode:American Public Health Association If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In this episode of The Psychedelic Podcast, Paul F. Austin sits down with meditation teacher and social entrepreneur Dr. Fleet Maull to explore how Neuro-Somatic Mindfulness (NSM) intersects with psychedelic therapy. Find full show notes and links here: https://thethirdwave.co/podcast/episode-324/?ref=278  Fleet shares his journey from a 14-year federal prison sentence—where he founded the first prison hospice program and led daily meditation groups—to developing NSM, a radically embodied, neuroscience- and trauma-informed approach to practice. He explains how NSM trains five key brain networks, why embodiment quiets a noisy mind more reliably than “thinking about” the breath, and how pairing NSM with ketamine or psilocybin can help shift insights from state to trait. The conversation offers a grounded roadmap for practitioners and seekers who want deeper stability, safety, and integration in expanded-state work. Fleet Maull, PhD, CMT-P is an author, meditation teacher, mindset coach, and social entrepreneur working at the intersection of personal and social transformation. He is the founder & CEO of Heart Mind Institute, which integrates Western science with contemplative wisdom across trauma healing, resilience, psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, and conscious entrepreneurship. While serving a 14-year federal sentence (1985–1999), he founded Prison Mindfulness Institute and National Prison Hospice Association, catalyzing national movements in contemplative rehabilitation and end-of-life care. A senior Dharma teacher in Tibetan Buddhism and a Zen Roshi, Dr. Maull developed Neuro-Somatic Mindfulness (NSM), a deeply embodied, trauma-informed practice for healing and awakening. *This October 14–19, 2025, Paul will also co-host Heart Mind Institute's free online Microdosing & Psychedelic Retreats Summit, featuring 35+ global leaders including Paul Stamets, Deepak Chopra, and James Fadiman.

Are Aliens Just an Extension of Our Consciousness? Are psychedelics the only way to tap into a higher state of consciousness? Dr. James B. Glattfelder on the Transcendental Multiverse, Psychedelics, and the Fight for Meaning What if communicating with aliens isn't “out there”, but deep within? In this mind-expanding episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. James B. Glattfelder, complexity scientist, metaphysical idealist, former quant, and author, dives deep into the true nature of consciousness, the limits of traditional physics, and the emergence of meaning in our increasingly fractured world. From psychedelic dimensions and the “transcendental multiverse” to the hidden role of identity in societal collapse, Dr. Glattfelder explores: - Why modern physics hits a wall when explaining consciousness, and why the pendulum is swinging back toward spiritual and philosophical truth - Whether alien contact during DMT trips is actually us tapping into a wider field of consciousness - Why he believes we live in a transcendental multiverse, and how you can train yourself to explore it - His personal experiences with psychedelics, and why he thinks they should be a last resort for accessing higher states - Natural ways to stimulate DMT production without substances - Potential mental health benefits of THC - Alternative modalities that lead to non-dual states and expanded awareness - Dangers of cosmic nihilism in today's spiritual seeking - Why identity is at the root of our collective dysfunction - Whether everyone should have access to higher consciousness, or if it's best left to the few - Why exploring your consciousness has the radical power to transform your life - Delicate balance between intuition, metaphysical signs, and grounded presence - Neuroscience vs philosophy: Why brain damage sometimes unlocks new genius abilities - How religion served humanity before it was weaponized, and what's next - Why we suffer, even if there's a loving intelligence behind everything - The real cure for our crisis of meaning? A return to re-enchantment with reality - Why so many plants have psychedelic properties, and what that says about consciousness itself This conversation will shake the foundations of what you believe is real!
