Brandon Lee and Dr. Sue Sisley explore how microdosing psychedelics could revolutionize trauma healing and addiction recovery in 'Escaping Rock Bottom'.
Healing Trauma with Psychedelics: A Conversation with Dr. Sue Sisley
The only way we can reprocess trauma is to get past the frontal lobe, which is why we need to be open to microdosing, whether it's LSD, shrooms, or other medicines, to help a patient crack the code of the frontal lobe and get back to the lower part.
Can psychedelics play a role in healing trauma? Brandon Lee tackles this question head-on in a compelling episode of 'Escaping Rock Bottom'. This time, he sits down with Dr. Sue Sisley, a pioneering researcher in the field of microdosing psychedelics. Dr. Sisley, who was once the leading researcher on cannabis, now holds DEA approval to study the effects of mushrooms on veterans who have endured severe trauma. Her work could pave the way for groundbreaking treatments in addiction recovery.
The episode dives deep into how microdosing psychedelics might help reprocess trauma by targeting the frontal lobe. Dr. Sisley shares her insights on the science behind this approach and discusses the importance of post-treatment integration work. For anyone curious about the potential of psychedelic-assisted therapy to revolutionize addiction recovery, this episode offers a fascinating glimpse into cutting-edge research.
