Psychedelics are to the brain are what Waze is to traffic. A recent research shows how. In doing so it reveals a fundamental truth about the human experience.
Fantastic breakdown of the Cornell study. The shift from cellular to systems-level understanding mirrors broader shifts happening in medicine. The sensory vs narrative distinction you pull out is really what makes this research significant beyond just psychedelics. Experienced this personally after a facilitated session, where returning to embodied experience felt like remebering something that was there all along.
This article helps make so much sense of my experience with psilocybin and lifelong-depression and trauma. For me, the medicine has truly been like using Waze in a traffic jam and has helped in ways that antidepressants never have.

Thank you for your comment. 100%
The sensory vs narrative distinction has huge as it touches on the very foundation of the human conditions and its implications are far and wide.

For you and countless others, as shown over decades of research. and yet somehow, psilocybin is still federally a schedule 1. 🤯 There’s that.
Thank you for restacking!! ❤️
