There is a widespread belief that we have a flaw in our 'code' that makes us destined to destroy ourselves. But this is a misunderstanding. This doesn't have to be our fate unless we let it be. We have a choice. The truth is that it's not our nature to destroy ourselves. And, the truth is that there is something that we can do. This series will present a new understanding of how the mind works, will explain how we can restore our most important and most powerful abilities, and will give answers to what we can do to win the race against insanity and create a world that makes sense.

    Inquiry and Natural Intelligence

    What is the practice or the ‘doing’ of restoring your natural intelligence?

    What’s special about a practice that restores your natural intelligence?

    As we’ve been putting out the message of why it’s so important to restore, enhance, and protect our natural intelligence, these are some of the questions we still need to answer.

    In this episode, Jill Nephew speaks to these questions and more around inquiry as a practice and its relationship to natural intelligence.

    Unpacking the Unexamined Harms of Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy: Part 3

    This episode is part 3 of a series of conversations prompted by the recent Cover Story, Power Trip podcast episodes exploring the MDMA-Assisted therapy trials by MAPS and the stories of participants who went through severe negative experiences that were previously not publicly known or acknowledged. In this episode we deep dive into a series of thought experiments around the role of the therapist in psychedelic therapy and imagine into what testable mechanisms for good outcomes might look like. More show notes here.

    This episode is part 2 of a series of conversations prompted by the recent Cover Story, Power Trip podcast episodes exploring the MDMA-Assisted therapy trials by MAPS and the stories of participants who went through severe negative experiences that were previously not publicly known or acknowledged. In this episode we continue the conversation where we talk about things like the mechanisms of psychological harm, the role of psychedelics in a therapeutic process, the role of therapists or guides, and thought experiments around how psychedelics introduce new dimensions of harm and meaning, beyond existing mental health interventions.

    This episode is the first part of a series of conversations prompted by the recent Cover Story, Power Trip podcast episodes exploring the MDMA-Assisted therapy trials by MAPS and the stories of participants who went through severe negative experiences that were previously not publicly known or acknowledged. We use this as a launch point for a conversation where we talk about things like the mechanisms of psychological harm, the role of psychedelics in a therapeutic process, the role of therapists or guides, the placebo effect and psychological diagnoses, and the danger of the enhanced placebo effect in psychological interventions.

    Re-Imagining the World Through the Lens of Natural Intelligence

    Re-Imagining the World Through the Lens of Natural Intelligence

    This episode is an announcement that we’re transitioning the podcast into a new chapter, a chapter where we will be re-imaging the world through the lens of natural intelligence.

    The world we live in has been built and architected while we’ve had the wrong understanding of the mind and cognition.

    This leads to a real call to action to both modernize around our correct understanding, and restore what we lost. This is going to be a central theme of our next series.

Why so many people might be "stuck"

I believe the “stickiness” in our focused attention might be related to stored emotional trauma. I’ve been learning about the psychology of attachment in relationships, and I've observed that insecure attachment styles can cause those loops that inhibit natural intelligence.

As we form secure emotional attachments with others our coordinated natural intelligence might begin to shine, but until we heal the inner traumas our natural intelligence remains stunted.
