The inner healer phenomenon of psyche-delics can be explained or depends- in part- on the diffusion principle.

Do you believe psyche-delics contain an intrinsic healing mechanism or an ‘inner healer’ ? 🍄

“[I]n this shadow there is a veil, so that one does not see the Truth which is in him…
But when the perfect light appears, the veil will be lifted, and the truth will be revealed.”

Enjoying learning about Gnosticism. 🤓

This principle of play and inquiry is something that truly motivates me in what I do 🔬 Science is a method, a way of scrutinizing the world. We shouldn’t take it too seriously; it is a discipline, but it is also playful. 🍄✨

What are people's views on genetic contributions to differential responses to psychedelics e.g., psilocybin specifically?
August 9, 2025 at 6:19 PM
Like how Schrödinger proposed that genes are like an "aperiodic crystal"—a stable yet complex molecule capable of encoding vast amounts of information, could the same inspiration apply to consciousness and the brain?

Can you think of a really good description of the psychedelic experience that resonates with the idea of brain activity becoming entropic/ disordered/ chaotic under the drug?

New study just dropped in @nature.com NPJ Aging and the results are interesting:

🍄 +57% lifespan in mice cells
🧬 Preserved telomeres
🧯 Reduced oxidative stress
🐭 80% survival in aged mice (vs 50%)
🐾 Better fur, less gray hair
🧪 Boosted SIRT1, protected DNA

Been digging this: Plotinus and the One. In the Enneads, Plotinus describes how: "The One" (or "The Good") is the ultimate source of all reality,
and from it, all things emanate — first Nous (Divine Mind), then Psyche (World Soul), and so on. The “multiplicity flows from an original unity” vibe. 🌀

Important study by Leor Roseman, which became even more relevant in recent years.

Do you believe #psychedelics could help us move toward #peace? ☮️

Spent some quality time with Phil Wolfson, K*tamine assisted therapy expert. 🍄✨

What do you think of ket assisted therapy? #psychedelics

Will be giving this talk at #PS25 at #maps, featuring the working title of my forthcoming book... and... my lab’s new logo!

What do you think of the new logo?

I find this work deeply inspiring and exciting! Exploring ultraweak photon emissions as optical markers of brain activity. 🧠✨

A new study led by Hayley Casey and colleagues explored ultraweak photon emissions — tiny flashes of light produced by your brain’s cells as they work.

Without philanthropy, there’s no lab, no studies, no story. And no movement. 🫡
