facts about psychedelics

I’d say the most impressive thing about psychedelics is the fact that they can change your perspective on how you see your own mind, your own body, your own thoughts, your own emotions, your own everything.

One of the effects of psychedelics is to change your mind’s perspective about the world. Some of the things that psychedelics do for you are

  1. They help you become more sensitive to things, to other people’s pain and suffering.
  2. They help you see things from a more realistic and accurate point of view.
  3. They can help you see more clearly into your own body. You can see the physical sensations that are happening in your body, even when there’s no pain, even when you don’t have any other physical symptoms.
  4. A psychedelic experience can help you gain insight into your emotional states. You see your emotions and how they relate to the things that you see in your mind.
  5. You can have breakthrough insights into the nature of your mind, your relationship to your mind. You can understand the mechanisms that make it possible for your mind to think thoughts, to feel emotions, and to be aware.
