Comedy Central animated one of comedian Shane Mauss' DMT trip reports. Again I'm not much of a fan of trip reports, don't like to influence other people's experiences, but this is a good example of the wild possibilities when it comes to DMT. It is also another example of how far psyc...

The psychedelic community has a long history of doing this and in general I believe it can create a sort of "false narrative" about what people should expect wh...

Nice to see this story published by NPR today. The underlying research shows the excellent potential for using psychedelics to "reprogram" the mind in positive ways including treating addictions. I think the principles can be applied to other areas of life as well.
