“The proposition that psilocybin impacts cognition and stimulates hippocampal neurogenesis is based on extensive evidence that serotonin (5- hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT) acting on specific 5-HT receptor sub-types (most likely the 5-HT2A receptor) is involved in the regulation of neurogenesis in hippocampus. The in vitro and in vivo animal data is compelling enough to explore whether psilocybin will enhance neurogenesis and result in measurable improvements in learning.” – Juan R. Sanchez-Ramos HOW PSYCHEDELICS FUNCTION THERAPEUTICALLY The classic psychedelics temporarily down regulate a system in the brain called the Default Mode Network (DMN). This system is managing how areas of our brain are communicating with each other. This is connected to what we call the ego (our identity, idea of self, how we label and categorize). When this system is less active different areas of the brain are more free to communicate with each other. The most important communication that happens here is the communication between the deeper emotional parts of our brain and the higher level functioning prefrontal cortex parts of our brain. This increase in communication allows new pathways and new ways of processing ourselves and our lives. It allows our emotional side to form new ways of connecting to our ego. This is why these medicines are so powerful. The ego is there helping us go through life in a comfortable routine sort of way. It is also preventing us from moving through and beyond past traumas and negative learned behaviour. The psychedelics disrupt this process and open the door for healing and growth. #healing #neuroscience #mentalhealth #neuroplasticity #traumahealing #depression #mushrooms #selfexploration

Sleep is not just as a passive state, but as a vital, active process essential for life and health. Sleep is a biological necessity, just as essential as food and water. Neglecting sleep damages every major organ system, and improving sleep is one of the most powerful levers for health, performance, and longevity. Research shows that sleep is foundational, not optional and its benefits span the brain, body, and emotional well-being. This is a guide of science-based protocols to optimize sleep by aligning with your neurobiology and circadian rhythm. Now available on Level 3 😎
