Ronan Levy on How Psychedelics Can Heal Trauma and Addiction

What we see with certainty coming out of some of the studies with psychedelics and psychedelic-assisted therapies is that people report increased creativity, enhanced empathy, greater regard for the planet- so really characteristics and qualities that I don't think can ever be in too much supply.
Can psychedelics really help with addiction and trauma? In this eye-opening episode of The Addicted Mind Podcast, host Duane Osterlind chats with Ronan Levy, co-founder of Field Trip Health, about the surprising benefits of psychedelics in treating addiction and emotional wounds. Ronan, a former lawyer turned entrepreneur, shares his journey from the medical cannabis industry to pioneering psychedelic therapies. He passionately discusses how these substances can promote emotional resilience and proactive mental health care.
The conversation dives into the science behind psychedelics, their impact on the brain, and their potential to reverse addiction-related changes. Ronan also touches on the broader benefits people often experience, like increased creativity and empathy. This episode is a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction or trauma, offering fresh perspectives on healing.
