Luminous: Is It The Drug Or Is It The Trip?

David Olson, a neuroscientist pioneering non-hallucinogenic treatments, joins psychiatrist Charles Raison and retired psychologist Rachel Harris to explore the dual nature of psychedelics in mental health. They debate whether profound experiences or molecular changes drive healing. The trio discusses the evolution of psychiatric practices, the potential of psychedelics versus traditional antidepressants, and the spiritual wisdom from underground healers. Engaging personal stories reveal the transformative power of psychedelics and the importance of women's voices in this burgeoning field.
