Spiritus Contra Spiritum – The Role of Psychedelics in Healing Addiction with Lauren Cabaldon Celebrating Women in Psychedelics

    • Mental Health

Since as early as the 1950’s, psychedelics like LSD were showing real benefits in the treatment of alcoholism and other disorders.

Currently, there are several psychedelic trials being conducted in leading institutions around the world, further proving the effectiveness of psychedelic-assisted therapy for smoking cessation, alcohol and drug dependency and other substance abuse disorders.

In this episode, we’re going to examine:


The fascinating history and current ways in which psychedelics are being used to treat substance abuse disorders
The connection between AA and psychedelics, and why founder Bill W wanted to include psychedelic therapy as one of the official 12 steps
The specific benefits – as well as the limitations of this innovative treatment for people in recovery
Some important tips to keep in mind if you want to introduce psychedelic-assisted therapy to friends or family members you feel can benefit from these treatments

And you’ll also hear how one specific real life “bad trip” led to a life-changing breakthrough of my guest.

Although this is a new area under a lot of study, the potential for psychedelic-assisted therapy to help people suffering from addiction is extremely promising, and one of the most interesting application of clinical trials and psychedelic research being conducted in the psychedelic sector.
