On today's episode, we have psychedelic scientist and researcher Manesh Girn (He/Him) join us for a conversation about how psychedelics affect our brain and their effectiveness in therapy. Together we talk about some of the mythology around psychedelics, your serotonin receptors, and the importance of mindfulness and meditation in creating a positive mental state.
