Psychedelic therapy is on the verge of reshaping mental health, trauma healing, and human consciousness. This episode reveals what's really happening behind the scenes at the FDA, inside pharmaceutical companies, and within the global movement to legalize MDMA-assisted therapy. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Rick Doblin, PhD, the legendary founder of MAPS and one of the most influential figures in psychedelic science. With nearly 40 years leading clinical research on MDMA, psilocybin, and trauma healing, Rick brings unmatched insight into how these compounds are transforming functional medicine, emotional resilience, and neuroplasticity. They break down the regulatory battle over MDMA therapy, the clash between pharmaceutical profit and public benefit, and the urgent need to combine pharmacology with therapy for real results. You'll also learn how psychedelics impact neurohacking, epigenetics, and the default mode network—and why the next frontier of self-transformation may be couples therapy with MDMA. This episode offers critical knowledge for anyone serious about biohacking, trauma release, mental performance, and accessing deeper states of healing. This podcast channel dives into the intersections of psychedelics with fasting, ketosis, cold therapy, and self-quantification—and how altered states can unlock more energy, better relationships, and lasting change. You'll Learn: • Why separating therapy from psychedelics is the most dangerous path forward • How MAPS evolved into a public benefit pharma company—and what went wrong • The real story behind the FDA's rejection of MDMA therapy in 2024 • How MDMA affects neuroplasticity, mitochondria, and trauma recovery • Why group therapy and couples therapy are the future of psychedelic healing • The dangers of overusing ketamine—and how it's being exploited by profit-driven clinics • What the Psychedelic Science 2025 conference will reveal about the future of medicine, spirituality, and consciousness hacking • How psychedelics could reverse epigenetic trauma passed down through generations • The role of default mode network suppression in spiritual experiences and trauma resolution • Why the war on drugs was never about safety—and what a post-drug-war world might look like Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade is the top podcast for people who want to take control of their biology, extend their longevity, and optimize every system in the body and mind. Each episode features cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, neurohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living.

Join us for a mind-bending conversation with the co-authors of The Illustrated Field Guide to DMT Entities, David Jay Brown and Sara Phinn Huntley. Are these beings interdimensional ambassadors, cosmic deceivers, or mere hallucinations? From AI's role in visualizing hyperspace to the deep state's fascination with the spirit molecule, we explore the risks and revelations of this oracle-like guide. Is it a bridge to the divine or a trapdoor to something sinister? Buckle up—this trip redefines reality. GUESTS: David Jay Brown, holding a master's in psychobiology from NYU, is a pioneering author blending science and mysticism. His works, like The New Science of Psychedelics, explore DMT's enigmatic entities. A leading voice in consciousness research, Brown bridges rigorous science with the mysteries of hyperspace. Sara Phinn Huntley, a visionary artist, uses AI to craft haunting illustrations for The Illustrated Field Guide to DMT Entities. Merging fine arts with technology, her work captures the surreal essence of machine elves and mantis beings, redefining how we visualize the unseen.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaRev. Dr. Jessica Rochester: In an age where plant medicines are paraded like commoditiesand sacred sacraments are filtered through the sterile lens of profit and protocol,there stands a bridge—woven not from theory,but from decades of devotion,grit, and grace.Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester is that bridge.Madrinha. President. Torchbearer.Founder of Céu do Montréal, the Santo Daime Church she brought into being in 1997—not as a rebellion,but as a restoration of sacred memoryto the North.A transpersonal counselor forged in the crucibles of Assagioli and Grof,she speaks the languages of the soul and the somatic,guiding seekers not around, but through the sacred fire of self-confrontation.She walked the bureaucratic labyrinth from 2000 to 2017,securing a Section 56 Exemption—not for fame,but to protect the sacrament of Santo Daime from the cold fists of the state.She is an ordained Interfaith Minister,a Doctor of Divinity,and an author whose two-volume opus—Ayahuasca Awakening—is less a book and more a mapfor those ready to take off their masksand meet the jaguar within.For over four decades she has led workshops,held private practice,stood at the crossroads of consciousness and culture,teaching not how to escape,but how to embodythe radical act of spiritual adulthood.And today,while the psychedelic renaissance sells peak experiences,Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester whispers of something older,quieter,stronger—The long walk home.The humble medicine of self-care,self-mastery,and sacred discipline.So if you came for a keynote speaker,step aside.If you came for a true guidebetween the seen and unseen,prepare your heart.Because the Madrinha is not here to entertain you.She is here to remind you who you werebefore the world told you who to be.https://www.revdrjessicarochester.com/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima
Segment 1 • Antisemitism rises, misgendering becomes criminal, and colleges now teach “adulting” classes. • Todd presents a cultural “train wreck” and asks: which story screams "sign of the times" to you? • Moral confusion and soft totalitarianism are growing fast—can you spot the symptoms? Segment 2 • Emergency contraception at gas stations and cannabis replacing alcohol—what could go wrong? • Porn companies block France over age laws—are they protecting kids or profits? • Cultural boundaries are evaporating. Are you ready to raise your kids in this world? Segment 3 • Preaching isn't just explaining—it's exalting Christ with urgency and clarity. • Many pulpits today sound more like seminary lectures than soul-stirring sermons. • Want transformation, not just information? The Bible must be preached with purpose. Segment 4 • Psychedelic drugs are trending in Silicon Valley as faux spiritual awakenings. • Divorce leaves a wake—5 million kids show long-term damage in new study. • The culture offers altered states and broken homes—how should the Church respond? ___ Thanks for listening!

Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 748 Are your unresolved childhood wounds hijacking your relationships and keeping you stuck in depression or anxiety? Neuro-Rewiring Expert Mike Zeller joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 748, to share how healing your protector parts can transform conflict into deeper connection and trust, why psychedelics can reopen critical social learning periods and give you access to the hidden programming of your mind, and how to move from fear-driven protector parts into authentic flow state. "Our core longing as human beings is connection and love. We think that the wounded, victim, angry self is who we are because that part is in the driver's seat, and we're identified with that feeling. When we do the neuro-rewiring work, we separate that enmeshment. And because of that separation, we can now recognize the patterns and awareness instead of being in it so much that we can't see." - Mike Zeller

Send us a textKetamine has been in the news a lot lately and there are a lot of misconceptions about how this medicine is used for the treatment of mental health conditions. Is it safe and effective?

In today's episode of the Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers podcast, we discuss the history and clinical applications of these two medicines as we attempt to answer these important questions.For those of you who are new to the show, welcome!

As the state allows its first psilocybin healing centers, a church in Colorado Springs is finding connection through psychedelics. We visit the church with "The Trip: CPR's coverage of Colorado's psychedelic journey." Then, Colorado led the nation for police accountability reform in response to the Black Lives Matter movement. We find out how it's working five years later and what's still to be done, with Purplish. Plus, for Pride Month, we re-share a conversation about how Scouting America became inclusive for all young people.

For the first time, ex-Mossad agents who led the exploding pager and walkie-talkie plot against Hezbollah, which garnered worldwide attention in September, detail their 10-year undercover op in an interview with correspondent Lesley Stahl. Meeting in Israel, the agents, who recently retired from service, share never-before-known details that caught Hezbollah fighters by surprise and ultimately spurred change across the region from Lebanon to Syria to Iran. Last year, the Veterans Administration announced it would begin funding clinical trials to explore the use of psychedelic drugs for treating post-traumatic stress disorder, depression and addiction. However, these trials are small, and even if successful, it will likely be years before veterans can access psychedelics at the VA. Many U.S. veterans struggling with PTSD aren't waiting. Thousands of them are traveling overseas seeking relief at psychedelic retreats where these substances are legal to use, mostly in indigenous ceremonies. Correspondent Anderson Cooper follows nine veterans on a psychedelic journey to the west coast of Mexico, where they hope to find healing. Correspondent Jon Wertheim goes behind the scenes as George Clooney makes his Broadway debut, starring in an adaptation of the 2005 Oscar-nominated movie “Good Night, and Good Luck.” Clooney co-wrote both the original screenplay and this play, which tell the story of pioneering journalist Edward R. Murrow, who took on Senator Joseph McCarthy. Clooney calls it a fight for the ages and says the plot, which revolves around themes of truth, intimidation and courage in corporate media, resonates today. Now 64, the actor tells Wertheim why he finally feels ready to take on the role of Murrow himself.

What happens when you've spent 22 years walking a sober path—only to realize there are still parts of your soul left unacknowledged and unhealed?In this deeply personal conversation with Zach Leary, I reflect on how I redefined sobriety through the lens of trauma healing, psychedelics, and self-trust.For two decades, I'd stayed clean and sober and done the work. But some pieces—especially around sexuality and relationships—stubbornly persisted. Funny as it might sound, it was my first ayahuasca ceremony that actually brought me to a whole new level of recovery and authenticity.The truth is, the 12 Steps were always meant to bring about a spiritual experience. Psychedelics just gave me a different door into that same house. They helped me see the trauma I didn't even know I was still carrying. And ironically, it was those decades of practicing rigorous surrender that allowed me to yield even deeper to the medicine work and broaden what my spiritual awakening could look like.
I had the distinct pleasure of speaking with Wade Richardson about his book "The Psychedelic Mindmeld: Telepathically Exploring Shared Consciousness", telepathy, the complexity of merging, surrendering the ego, astral smoke, the intimacy of mindmelding, the Telepathy Tapes, connecting to the Akashic Field, connecting to one's future self, and mucho more!!

He's led teams, advised startups, burned through playbooks, and emerged on the other side with only one message:“If you're still measuring success in metrics, you're already dead.”This ain't about products.This is about prophets.This is about dismantling the assembly line of your life, and replacing it with a playground of the possible.This is about ROI becoming R.O.I.—Return On Inner-fucking-anarchy.So light a match, kiss your five-year plan goodbye, and let Sabba take you somewhere your HR department doesn't have a policy for.This is the conversation at the end of the world.And you're late for the bus.http://linkedin.com/in/sabbanazhandhttps://www.joinsafar.com/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

On this episode, we check in with "Something Offbeat" host Mike Rogers' "Other Side of the News" reports and get a preview of our next Something Offbeat on degrees in psychedelics.
This week's guest makes me just want to have fun. No, it's not Cyndi Lauper. But he did play with her for years. Welcome multi-instrumentalist Knox Chandler to the show. He moved around a lot as a kid, so music really meant a lot to him. His parents told him that he used to hug the stereo speakers when he was a toddler. He studied guitar and upright bass in college. But his cello playing got him just as much work as anything else. The funny part about that is he never technically learned how to formally play the cello. It began on a whim from Richard Butler of The Psychedelic Furs. From that, we'll call it a suggestion, Knox learned how to play the cello night after night, live in front of thousands of Psychedelic Furs fans. That turned into playing cello for R.E.M. on Automatic For The People, among other amazing credits. Knox also tells a hilarious story about how he met Cyndi Lauper in the studio and then got heckled by her at a live show that night. He's got a bunch of projects in the works and one that he just completed. It's his multi-media release called The Sound. It's a beautiful, instrumental album that was inspired by friends, tech, and fly-fishing. Check it out on all the streaming platforms or buy the multi-media version from knoxchandlermusic.com or Bandcamp. His website also has links to his socials. Follow us @PerformanceAnx on socials.

Just Asking, hosted by Saroja Coelho, takes audience questions about major news and trends, then invites experts to give you the answers needed to make better decisions in your life.In this episode: Drugs like ketamine, MDMA and psilocybin are being looked at as possible treatments for depression, anxiety and PTSD. And while there's a growing appetite from patients to explore these options, the research is still ongoing about why they work the way they do, and which patients are best suited for them. Where does the research currently stand? And what risks should patients be aware of? Just Asking brings on two experts to help answer those questions.

In this deeply moving episode of The Big Fish Cares Podcast, host Benny Fisher sits down with tech entrepreneur, coach, and global keynote speaker Manuj Aggarwal, a man whose life journey is nothing short of extraordinary. Manuj takes us from his childhood in a small Indian town, working 12-hour shifts for $2 a day, to battling depression and surviving a suicide attempt at just 15. Through raw vulnerability, he shares how early feelings of inadequacy, pressure from his family, and a need for validation led him to the edge, and how discovering computers gave him a reason to live, learn, and lead. Today, Manuj works with Fortune 500 companies, speaks to global audiences, and helps others turn their pain into purpose. In this episode, he opens up about what success really means, how pain can be a path to self-awareness, and why freedom, not money, is the true definition of wealth.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaAlex DetmeringTonight, we do not summon a guest—we invoke a storm, a feral force birthed at the crossroads where Blake's mad visions meet Watts' cosmic riddles,and the ferryman waits with a crooked grin, oar dripping with psychedelic fire.Alex Detmering is the alchemist who turns market logic into molten rebellion,who feeds fried locusts to his insatiable hunger for truth,and tears through the polite fabric of civilization like a wolf at the throat of empire.He doesn't just strategize—he conjures sacred chaos,crafting exquisite designs in the shadows of collapsing pyramids,while whispering Shakespeare's ghosts into the ears of gods and madmen alike.His mind is a battleground where character dissolves into myth,where every word is a lightning bolt aimed at the heart of the mundane,shattering the glass temple of conformity with a grin sharp enough to draw blood.Alex stands at the edge of reason and madness,where the Upanishads bleed into the wild hymns of the night,and Rumi's spinning dance becomes a war danceto unmake the dead world and birth a new dawn soaked in fire and blood.He is the fierce ferryman rowing us through the psychedelic abyss,where intellect and intuition collide in savage harmony—where every whiteboard is a battlefield, every idea a weapon forged in truth's flame.So brace yourself. Tonight's journey is not for the faint.We're stepping through the rupture,into a tempest where thought becomes thunder and silence screams.Alex Detmering isn't just your guide—he's the rebellion incarnate, the sacred wildfire burning down the old worldso the new can rise from its ashes, screaming and free.http://alexdetmering.com/http://linkedin.com/in/alex-detmering Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Paul F. Austin, founder of Third Wave and Psychedelic Coaching Institute, coaches elite leaders - CEOs, founders, and executives - on integrating psychedelics with conscious leadership for peak performance, problem solving, and tangible transformation. Top3 Value Bombs 1. The biggest opportunities are found in not playing by the rules but in rewriting them and that success is not only about personal achievement but about serving something bigger and that true fulfilment comes from aligning your work to a deeper mission that creates true impact in families, communities and the world. Finding the intersection of these things defines what success is. 2. Microdosing is not a magic pill that anyone can take to fix things. Yes it helps in neuroplasticity but its not just about taking the drug that matters, what really matters is integration. 3. The best leaders just don't grow their business, they grow themselves first and Psychedelic coaching accelerate that evolution.

Send us a textIn today's episode of the Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers podcast, we're talking with Zen Master, Genpo Roshi. Roshi has been one of the pioneers of Zen throughout the U.S. and Europe. He's known for his development of the Big Mind process, a method that combines Zen practice with Western psychological principles to facilitate personal transformation and insight. We discuss his early life experiences that set him on this path, the concepts of awakening and enlightenment, the nature of the mind, human being vs. doing, the judicious use of psychedelic tools, and the differences between Big Mind and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Roshi also takes Reid and me through a short practice that we found very helpful. You can learn more about Roshi's teachings at https://bigmind.org/For those of you who are new to the show, welcome!

Mark has also created over 2,000 commercials for top brands including McDonald's, Honda, AT&T, and Carnival Cruise Lines, earning numerous Addy and Telly Awards along the way. But behind the scenes, Mark faced a profound personal battle. At the height of his success, he lost everything to severe depression, anxiety, and alcoholism. His path to healing came through the powerful therapeutic use of Ayahuasca and psilocybin, which opened new dimensions of consciousness and helped him rediscover his purpose. Today, Mark is not only a celebrated DGA director but also the founder of Frequency House, a wellness and consciousness center in Topanga Canyon dedicated to helping others heal through plant medicine, intention, and spiritual connection. His story is one of remarkable transformation, a journey from Hollywood to healing, now inspiring others to awaken to their own potential. We discuss: How psychedelics strip away illusion and reveal deeper personal and universal truths. Why living with integrity is essential for cultivating love, trust, and self-respect. The power of community in supporting both personal transformation and collective healing. How past trauma can be reframed as preparation for purpose and future alignment. The role of sound, frequency, and group intention in deepening healing and shifting consciousness.

We love to hear from our listeners. Send us a message. On this week's episode, Dr. Srinivas Rao, co-founder and CEO at atai Life Sciences, explains how his engineering background led him to the development of psychedelic compounds for treating depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders. Internal drug development efforts at atai are focused on short-duration psychedelics that can work within existing healthcare infrastructure, with the potential to transform the treatment of mental health disorders. Rao also talks about atai's hub and spoke model for investing in other psychedelic companies, what MAPS/Lykos Therapeutics got wrong in the run-up to FDA's review of Lykos's MDMA candidate for PTSD, and whether psychedelic therapies need the "trip" to catalyze network disruption and neuroplasticity in the brain.

In this episode, Amanda Anguish and Dr. Daniel Binus have a conversation on psychedelic drugs and whether or not they are an effective method of therapy treatment.__
What if the path to healing trauma isn't just through talk therapy, but through carefully guided psychedelic experiences? In this episode of The Practice of Therapy Podcast, I sit down with Dori, an experienced therapist and psychedelic facilitator, who shares her deeply informed perspective on the nuanced, responsible, and transformational use of medicines like ketamine, MDMA, and psilocybin mushrooms. Dori doesn't just follow trends—she's been on the frontlines, participating in research, working underground before legalization, and now helping clients access inner healing intelligence in a grounded, therapeutic way. If you're curious about how psychedelics actually fit into trauma work, when they're appropriate, and why they're not a one-size-fits-all miracle, this conversation will challenge your thinking and expand your clinical toolkit. Tune in to discover how seasoned therapists like Dori are bridging science, soul, and therapy to help clients heal in ways traditional methods sometimes can't reach. Are you ready to explore the real story behind the hype? Let's dive in.

With over a decade of clinical experience, Dori blends transpersonal psychology, depth work, and psychedelic-assisted therapy within a model that centers the therapeutic relationship. To date, she has stewarded nearly 100 ketamine therapy sessions and countless more individual and group ceremonies. She has also been trained and mentored in shamanic ritual, which has helped her bridge traditional counseling practice with transpersonal and existential realms—spaces that can hold incredible meaning and connection for clients. As an educator and trainer, Dori has delivered numerous talks to the professional psychedelic community through the Nowak Society and other guest lectures. In 2022, she spoke on the importance of psychedelic facilitator ethics through the lens of existential shadow work as a main stage speaker at the Emergence Festival. She co-teaches introductory psychedelic therapy workshops and served as a core lead faculty member with the Psychedelic Research and Training Institute (PRATI) from 2020 to 2023, where she specialized in training new and experienced clinicians on topics like set and setting, ethical ceremony, cultural appropriation in spiritual practices, and ritual in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. As interest in psychedelic medicine grows, Dori believes it is the responsibility of those with a voice in professional and psychedelic communities to stay informed—and to intercept and challenge disinformation and questionable ethical practices emerging in the public arena.
