14 - Psychedelics as Medicine, Therapy and Opening up the Creative Mind Part 2 MovEvolution Heal, Move & Evolve Podcast

    • Alternative Health

What’s a bad trip? When were psychedelics first used? What is the meaning behind "psychedlics" and "entheogens"?  How can certain psychedelics help with emotional trauma, PTSD and couples's therapy? Why should someone have a "guide" if considering using psychedelics? Shrooms!

In today’s podcast, we discuss the history, stigmas, and legalities around psychedelics and their uses as medicine, therapy and altering states of consciousness. I have the esteemed pleasure of speaking with Funlayo E.
