Description
"As the legalization of psilocybin in clinical/therapeutic settings spreads across the country, people who have tried other hallucinogenic drugs like MDMA, ketamine, LSD, and opium to treat depression, anxiety, etc. or who have used magic mushrooms on their own or in ceremonial contexts are likely to be curious about what the clinical expectations and benefits from psilocybin are. What does the science say are benefits of psilocybin, and for what conditions is it most promising and/or counterindicated? What should you expect from a session with a psychedelic therapist or a psychedelic sitter? How can you find/choose a reputable practitioner? How do you microdose? Are there risks associated with psilocybin? With a base in the most recent scientific research, bolstered by actual case studies and with historical sacred use/lore peppered in, this will be a powerful and useful volume for to introduce people to psilocybin the next frontier in psychedelic medicine as a mainstream therapeutic treatment"--,Provided by publisher.
