Psychedelic Revival | Free Book
For psychotherapists and inner explorers, an expansive,
multidimensional odyssey into the history, practice, and potential
of psychedelic healing
Now that the stigmas against psychedelic medicine are
finally lifting, there’s a lot of curiosity—and confusion—about
these powerful compounds.
How can psychedelics be used
safely? What are the risks? Can they truly help heal the wide
variety of conditions that has garnered such international
attention?
In Psychedelic Revival, Sean Lawlor
invites you on a deep dive into the science, spirituality, and
practice of psychedelic healing—a revival of both the first wave of
pre-1960s research and ancient healing traditions with plant
medicines.
Join this respected author and researcher to
gain a full-spectrum understanding of the possibilities and limits
of psychedelics, including:
• The Western history of
psychedelic medicine and recreational use
• The
millennium-spanning legacy of Indigenous plant medicine
traditions
• In-depth chapters on psilocybin, LSD, MDMA,
ketamine, mescaline, ibogaine, peyote, ayahuasca, DMT, and more
•
Practical insights, from microdosing to psychedelic-assisted
psychotherapy to transformative mystical experiences
• The
shadow dimensions of psychedelics—bad trips, scientific
stigmatization, inequality of access, and many other essential
topics
Informed by solid research and direct wisdom from
perceptive firsthand accounts, Lawlor guides you into the
psychedelic landscape, covering treatment methods, realistic
benefits, and the legitimate perils psychedelics can induce. Along
the way, he shares exclusive interviews with luminaries such as
Michael Pollan, Rick Doblin, Camille Barton, Carl Hart, Jim Fadiman,
Rick Strassman, Natalie Ginsberg, Sandor Iron Rope, and many
more.
Psychedelics have tremendous healing potential, yet
all evocative modalities should be handled with care. To make good
choices, we need quality information about the prospects and
pitfalls of these emerging therapeutic tools.
Psychedelic Revival is an invaluable resource for navigating
this exciting frontier in Western healing.
