Send us a textIn this episode of the Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers podcast, Dr. Steve Thayer and Dr. Reid Robison discuss how to make changes in life that stick. We’ve all had the unpleasant experience of trying and failing to make changes. It could a habit you’re trying to break or form, a career or business you want to start or grow, a skill you want to develop, a relationship dynamic you want to shift, or something else. You try and try again, but nothing changes. In this episode they discuss why that happens and how to make satisfying changes that are durable.  Learn more about our podcast at https://numinusnetwork.com/learn/podcast/Learn more about psychedelic therapy training opportunities at https://numinusnetwork.com/training/Learn more about our clinical trials at https://www.numinusnetwork.com/researchLearn more about Numinus at https://numinusnetwork.com/Email us at ptfpodcast@numinus.com Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drstevethayer/https://www.instagram.com/innerspacedoctor/https://www.instagram.com/numinushealth/
