I'm kind of interested in how the world that we see and also hear and also feel is influenced by things like linguistics, things like cultural bias, things like expectation in the example I gave you there, and also, obviously, psychedelics.
Ever wondered about the real impact of psychedelics on the mind? In this episode of 'What's the Crack', Elle Wadsworth sits down with Reverend Danny Nemu, a hypnotherapist and author of 'Neuro-Apocalypse', to dive deep into the world of ayahuasca and other psychedelics. They chat about how these substances influence cognition and language, the legal grey areas they inhabit, and the ongoing tension between traditional use and scientific scrutiny.
Reverend Nemu shares fascinating insights from his book, discussing how psychedelics can unveil hidden aspects of the mind and culture. He talks about ayahuasca, a potent brew from the Amazon, which is often used in shamanic rituals. But it's not just about the mystical visions; according to Nemu, it's more about the teachings and personal growth that come from these experiences. The conversation also touches on the importance of trust and safety when considering psychedelic use.
Reverend Nemu emphasizes that if you're thinking about trying ayahuasca, it's crucial to do it with someone who genuinely cares about your well-being. This episode doesn't shy away from the tough questions either. Are those who use psychedelics more liberal? How do laws shape our behavior around these substances? And what happens when psychiatrists start using psychedelics without fully understanding their potential?
Elle and Reverend Nemu explore these questions with a mix of curiosity and caution, offering a balanced view that considers both the benefits and risks of psychedelics. Whether you're curious about the cultural significance of ayahuasca or interested in the broader implications of psychedelic use, this episode promises to be both enlightening and thought-provoking.
