With psychedelics fast becoming an important part of 21st Century health and wellbeing, Dr Duncan Still will provide an update on the roll-out of psychedelic-assisted therapies in the US and Australia as well as exciting developments in the UK and notable increases in psychedelic use across the globe. He will go on to raise important questions about some of the risks of the so-called Psychedelic Renaissance and then look at how we can help psychedelics achieve the great promise that they hold. He highlights their clear potential to alleviate suffering for many of those caught up in the midst of our Mental Health crisis but also asks us to consider the possibility that they might provide something even deeper. Could they provide solutions for societal rifts and even planetary health?
