Join us for a discussion of Pollan’s book (also a Netflix series) which explores altered states of consciousness, how LSD and psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms) might be used to treat people with conditions such as anxiety and depression, and how psychedelic therapists are practicing. We’ll use the book to explore questions such as “what is consciousness?” and “what (if any) are the mental health benefits of entheogens?”

Come with curiosity and questions!
