Description

Todays's guest on the podcast is emergency doctor and cannabis prescriber, Ian Mitchell. As an emergency doctor, he has worked a lot with Ketamine and I have him on the show to clear up some misunderstandings about ketamine and explore its clinical significance from its use as an anesthetic to its potential for treating depression. Of course, Ketamine is more than a clinical drug and is widely used in "recreational" contexts and so our discussion tackles some much-needed Harm Reduction talk as there are some significant dangers to be mindful of when it come to this drug. Somewhat spontaneously, this interview starts with a discussion about opiate dependence, overdose and policy change that may save a lot of lives.   Full Show Notes: http://bit.ly/ATTMindRadioEp15 Support The Podcast PayPal Donation Patreon Other Options (including bitcoin)

Adventures Through The Mind is an interview-based podcast hosted by Canadian author and public educator, James W. Jesso. Although the show topics range---from spirituality, mental health, and emotional maturity; to love, relationships and sexuality; to history, philosophy, and neuroscience---there are two underlying themes that intersect them all: psychedelics & the mind. James W. Jesso is the author of Decomposing The Shadow: Lessons From The Psilocybin Mushroom and The True Light Of Darkness, both about his experiences exploring the potentials of psychedelics.
