TEDxMarin Salon on Psychedelic Science and Medicine

A very special TEDx Salon

We’ll explore the types of psychedelic therapies and their role in the future of mental health care

* Saturday, June 10, 7:30 pm

Psychedelics produce powerful mental effects, including intensifying thoughts, feelings, and perceptions while loosening psychological defenses.  As chemicals, psychedelics probe connections between brain physiology and consciousness, among contemporary science’s most intriguing arenas.

However, the widespread recreational use of some of these substances and political realities in the 1960s contributed to strict legal regulation, halting research and most public discussion.

The good news is that easing legal restrictions on psychedelics has allowed for a long-awaited renaissance in researching these Plant medicines.  Interest in psychedelic research has mushroomed (pun intended) and has now returned to mainstream science, with peer-reviewed results for mental health issues proving to be extraordinary.  Psychedelic-assisted therapy is becoming a first-line treatment for many hard-to-treat illnesses like addiction, bipolar disorder, depression, PTSD, and in end-of-life care.  And it is just getting started.

On June 10th we will bring together experts and clinicians to share the latest science on the therapeutic breakthroughs of psychedelics.  We will explore the types of psychedelic therapies and their role in the future of mental health care; we will explore the moral rights to these substances, what’s legal and what isn’t, and the cultural implications of this emerging field, including micro-dosing.  And we will explore how these medicines might inform our understanding of the nature of “mind” and “consciousness.”

This will be a not-to-be-missed event for anyone interested in cutting-edge psychedelic science, mental health therapy, and a curiosity about the nature of consciousness.

We expect the show to sell out. This will be live and in person only. Pick your actual seat.
