Psilocybin and SSRIs: A Talk with Dr. Erica Zelfand, ND

As you saw in my last post, I am honored to be playing a role in the new Psilocybin Facilitator Training with The Leela School of Awakening in Ashland Oregon. Through collaboration and receptivity, many resources are coming my way & I want to share one in particular that I am loving.

I love the way the brain works - I have been fascinated with the workings of this organ since being diagnosed with hydrocephalus at age 17, and I was fortunate to study Neuroscience in college. With the evolving potential of psilocybin use for mental/ emotional/ physical health support and support for awakening from the trance of egoic identity, I am feeling called to understand more deeply the mystery of how the brain responds to this sacred plant medicine.

This talk by Dr. Erica Zelfand, in which she explores the interplay of psilocybin and SSRI’s, has captured my attention and fills my heart, so I wanted to share it here. I would love to know how it touches you.
