    MICRO: Why MDMA Feels Like Love (And When That Becomes a Problem), James W. Jesso

    In this Adventures Through The Mind micro, I explain what MDMA is and why it makes us feel love. I explain why MDMA is an entactogen rather than a classic psychedelic, and how it floods the brain with serotonin. I also discuss how it raises our sense of safety, lowers our sense of danger, and drops the emotional boundaries we normally hold, which is what made it work in couples therapy. Finally, I cover the PTSD research, and why MDMA with someone new can leave you holding an intimacy you have not earned. (00:00) What MDMA is, and how it works in the brain (06:25) Love with a capital L (11:02) Safety, danger, and the boundaries that drop (14:36) Why MDMA worked in couples therapy (18:14) The intimacy trap, and MDMA for PTSD (21:41) Outro This is a clip from 'Psychedelics in Research & Practice | James W.

    Psilocybin Therapy, Start To Finish | Dr. JJ Pursell ~ ATTMind 210

    This episode of the podcast is going to explore what actually happens inside psilocybin assisted therapy, from the first conversation to the last integration session. Specifically, we are going to be walking the entire arc of a legal psilocybin therapy engagement through the lens of naturopathic medicine: preparation, the session itself, integration, the risks, and how to tell whether any of it is right for you. Our guest is Dr. JJ Pursell.   What You'll Learn About: 🌿 What naturopathic medicine actually is, and how its root-cause approach differs from the conventional model 🍄 What psilocybin is, and what "psilocybin therapy" legally means in Oregon (which is far less than you'd expect) 🛋️ Inside a session: the service centre, the eye shades, the music, the waves, and what a facilitator is and is not there to do 🔄 Why she requires every client to commit to integration work before she'll agree to work with them at all 💧 What "alleviating suffering" really means, why it isn't the same as feeling good, and why the hardest material is usually the most useful ⚠️ The real risks: the bolt response, prolonged psychosis, cardiac contraindications, HPPD, and coming out the other side feeling worse 🚩 How to find a facilitator you can trust, the red flags to walk away from, and how to know when it's the wrong time entirely 🌀 Episode Show Notes and other Relevant Links   📚 Check out JJ's book Psilocybin Therapy: Understanding How to Use Nature's Psychedelics for Mental Health USA: https://bookshop.org/p/books/psilocybin-therapy-understanding-how-to-use-nature-s-psychedelics-for-mental-health-dr-jj-pursell/7796363e51a70603 CAD: https://www.indiebookstores.ca/book/9781643262000/ 🩺 Dr. Pursell's website: https://drjjpursell.com 🤝 Follow JJ: Instagram | YouTube | LinkedIn | Facebook   🍄 This episode is sponsored by Amentara.

    MiCRO:16 — The Attention War: How Screens Are Hijacking Your Consciousness | Carl Hayden Smith

    Is your attention being trained the same way an algorithm is trained? In this micro, Carl Hayden Smith joins me to unpack what he calls the attention war: how algorithms and short-form media shape the brain toward ADHD-like patterns, whether you have ADHD or not. We also talk about what surfaces in the mind after a few phone-free days, and why Carl believes AI's real danger isn't sentience, but a mass hallucination of it: one that's already changing how we see ourselves.

    MICRO:15 — Ibogaine: the one drug that stops opioid addiction in a single session, and can also kill you ~ James W. Jesso

    Ibogaine is regularly categorized as a psychedelic — but that label may be misleading in ways that matter. In this micro, James offers a crash course in what ibogaine actually is: where it comes from, how its unusual pharmacology works, what it does to the mind, and why it holds a position in addiction medicine that no other drug on earth can claim. The risk profile is part of the picture too. This is a clip from 'Psychedelics in Research & Practice | James W.

    The Food Mushroom That Makes You See Little People | Colin Domnauer ~ ATTMind 208

    You can buy Lanmaoa asiatica at a food market in Yunnan. Cook it thoroughly and it's just a bolete. Undercook it, and roughly 12 to 24 hours later you may spend the next three to seven days seeing hyper-realistic miniature people moving through your environment — documented across three independent cultures, mechanism completely unknown. Ethnobotanist Colin Domnauer (Dentinger Lab, Natural History Museum of Utah) is one of the few people actively trying to understand why. Colin and I get into what's actually documented about Lanmaoa asiatica — the three independent cultural accounts, the unusual onset and duration, and what the phenomenology of the hallucinations themselves suggests about mechanism. We talk about why this mushroom has received almost no formal scientific attention, what studying it would even look like, and what it might reveal about how psychedelic effects are produced in fungi more broadly. There's also a lot we just don't know — and we sit in that honestly.   🌀 Episode Show Notes and other Relevant Links 📚 Read Colin's Article on Lanmaoa asiatica -  The mushroom making people hallucinate dozens of tiny humans Follow Colin on Instagram: @eating_gaia — where he posts research updates and mushroom photos The Dentinger Lab at the Natural History Museum of Utah — for anyone interested in pursuing research in the field   FULL TOPICS BREAKDOWN BELOW ... 🤩 EPISODE SPONSOR AMENTARA is a credible source of legal psychoactive plants and extracts, most notably, Amanita Muscaria mushrooms—the red mushroom with white spots that shows up in folklore, Christmas imagery, and old shamanic traditions.
