Followed by Q+A.About this EventPsychedelics are having a moment, with a research renaissance exploring their effects and potential in full swing. While these substances have been used as agents of healing and divination in a shamanic and spiritual context by some indigenous cultures for many centuries, their intersection with Western culture is much more recent. Psychedelics have a tumultuous history, with an initial wave of scientific research into their potential being cut short by a vicious countercultural backlash in the 1960’s, although scientific research is once again picking up pace.While psilocybin has taken centre stage in this modern research revival, other psychedelics such as LSD, ayahuasca, DMT and 5-MeO-DMT are also gaining increasing scientific attention. What has research revealed about how psychedelics impart their powerful effects on the human psyche? And what promise might psychedelics hold in the treatment of various mental health afflictions, and the betterment of well people?Doors open at 5pm, talk starts at 5:30pm - come down early to grab a good seat!Follow us on IG @seedtalksSam is a PhD ecologist and independent researcher.
