We have been hearing a lot about the use of psychedelics to treat mental health in recent years, but what does that actually entail? What do psychedelics actually do to our brain? What would it feel like? What would it look like if psychedelics were as easily prescribed as antidepressants? What are we currently getting wrong about mental health? 

In this episode, we bring on an expert. Paul Austin, a psychedelics coach and the founder of Third Wave to explore the future of these drugs and their history, including: 
The ancient tradition of psychedelics
Why they are so transformative for depression and PTSD 
The impact on the brain and neuroplasticity 
The groundbreaking studies on their effectiveness
The limitations and ethical considerations, and much more!
