Can Psychedelics Heal The Mind? Philosophy Salon
There are growing applications of psychedelics in therapy: from trauma and anxiety, to the discovery of one's life purpose, or even one’s deeper self. At the same time, there are reasons to be skeptical: we are prone to bias, self-deception, and perhaps there is no real meaning or a self. Given that scientific research on psychedelics is still in its early stages, what conclusions can we draw right now? Do psychedelics create or shatter fantasies? What is the nature of the psychedelic experience, and how can it transform the mind?
