And the tragedy, of course, is: you're no longer interested in other pleasure-giving stimuli, like your partner, your friends, your family enjoying food. And you can only get satisfaction through that avenue.
Ever wondered how your brain shapes the way you see the world? In this fascinating episode of 'The One You Feed', host Eric Zimmer chats with James Kingsland, a seasoned science and medical journalist. With 25 years under his belt writing for big names like New Scientist and The Guardian, Kingsland brings a wealth of knowledge to the table.
They dive into his book, *Am I Dreaming: The Science of Altered States from Psychedelics to Virtual Reality and Beyond*, exploring how our brains create our reality. The conversation touches on how what we expect to see can alter what we actually perceive, and how tools like virtual reality and hypnosis can change our consciousness. Kingsland also shares his personal journey with hypnosis, including how it helped him conquer his fear of flying.
By the end of the episode, you'll have a deeper understanding of how your brain works and the incredible potential for change through altered states of consciousness. This episode is perfect for anyone curious about the mind, from those looking to overcome personal fears to those fascinated by the science of perception.
