Sobre el podcast
Adventures Through The Mind (ATTMind) is an interview-based podcast focusing on topics relevant and related to psychedelic cultures, psychedelic research, and psychedelic medicine. It focuses on supporting the personal and cultural integration of psychedelic experiences in a functional and healthy way; and always holding a curiosity towards immediate and valuable relevance to a person's lived life "The psychedelic experience really shines when we find a way to integrate what we've learned from it into our daily lives. My desire to help that with that integration on a personal and cultural level is why I make Adventures Through The Mind" ATTMind is hosted by Canadian author and public educator, James W. Jesso. James W. Jesso is the author of Decomposing The Shadow: Lessons From The Psilocybin Mushroom and The True Light Of Darkness, both about his experiences exploring the potentials of psychedelics.

In this Adventures Through The Mind micro, musician East Forest explains why so many of us have lost our connection with music, and how listening can bring it back.
East Forest explains how recorded music turned us from makers into consumers, and why most people have handed their own musicianship over to "professionals." We also discuss AI-generated songs, AI artists slipped into playlists, and what happens when the artist isn't human anymore. Finally, he makes the case for active listening, simply doing one thing at a time, and I share how a deep-listening circle let me hear a Nirvana song as if for the first time.

- (01:18) We consume more than we create

Jason Grechanik spent nearly a decade apprenticing in Amazonian tobacco medicine with the Shipibo in Peru.
He joins us to discuss both what the medicine of tobacco offers and what it asks of us.
What is sacred tobacco, and what isn't it? Tabaquero Jason Grechanik spent nearly a decade with the Shipibo in Peru and apprenticed in Amazonian tobacco medicine. We get into why tobacco is called the plant of the creator, what a tobacco dieta asks of you, and how Nicotiana rustica became the cigarette.
Then I push back: dependence, daily hapé, the "dizziness" that convinces people a plant told them they're ready to serve, the deaths that come from getting the dose wrong, and why "natural" doesn't mean safe.
‼️ This episode is educational. It does not recommend using tobacco or nicotine in any form. ‼️

Psychotherapist Marc Aixalà of ICEERS explains what psychedelic integration is, and what it isn't.
Marc offers some metaphors to help psychedelic integration, his seven dimensions of integration, and outlines why each of these has to be custom tailored to the needs of the individual person.
Marc also offers us his perspective as to why integration is not psychotherapy, and why it should end once the person no longer needs a practitioner. Finally, he makes the case that preparation matters even more than integration, because psychedelic healing is a process, not an event.

What is it actually like to take ibogaine? Jonathan Dickinson, CEO of Ambio Life Sciences and author of Ibogaine and the Bicameral Mind, takes us inside the flood dose: why you can't stand up for hours, why it's closer to a waking dream than a psychedelic trip, and what the people he's treated say they saw.
We also get into the book's big ideas (Lacan's "the Real" and Julian Jaynes's bicameral mind), why the benefits can arrive even when nothing seems to happen, and the real medical risk, including deaths.

Notas del episodio
Justin Townsend of MycoMeditations explains the "golden shadow" and why psychedelic facilitators need to be well-trained to hand that projection back rather than take it on. The dark shadow is the unsavory stuff we don't want to admit to: the shame, the disgust, the fear. The golden shadow, however, is the beautiful stuff about ourselves: our strengths, our creativity and our capacities for success. However, the golden shadow can get buried and projected just as much as the dark shadow.
The way it shows up is as a kind of intense admiration for someone else. Putting them up on a pedestal, viewing them with all these beautiful qualities of ourselves that we're unable to see in ourselves. This could be a retreat leader, a therapist, a celebrity, or a guru.
In this clip from episode 170, Justin walks us through how projection of the golden shadow can happen in psychedelic therapy and the problems that his can cause for both the participant and the facilitator when that facilitator is not ready and willing to refuse that projection and instead help their participant integrate it.
CHAPTERS
- (00:00) What the shadow and the golden shadow are
- (01:39) Spotting the projection, in retreats and in public
- (02:14) The facilitator's job, and how followers build a guru
- (04:31) Slow boil: how good people become the villain
- (6:54) Outro

Notas del episodio
This episode is going to explore the state of the psychedelic movement right now — the money, the policy, the ethics, and the stories that are not getting told.
Specifically, we are going to be exploring what is actually happening across the so-called psychedelic renaissance: the for-profit pharmaceutical track, city and state level decriminalization, the unregulated market selling products that mostly do not contain what they claim to, the biopiracy question that almost nobody in mainstream media will ask about, and why one of the field's most trusted journalists says psychedelics are a relationship rather than a cure. Our guest is Shelby Hartman.
What You'll Learn About:
🌊 The three waves of psychedelic research, from the 1950s through Nixon to the arrival of for-profit "corporadelic" pharma 🍄 Why almost nothing sold as a "gray market" psychedelic is legal, and what an independent lab actually found inside mushroom chocolate bars 🧭 How to vet a coach, facilitator, shaman, or space holder, and why anyone can call themselves one 🌿 Biopiracy, iboga, and the Bwiti — how plant medicine and the knowledge around it get taken without reciprocity ⚖️ Who will qualify for legal psychedelics, who can afford them, and who feels safe on a clinical couch 🔬 Whether the double-blind randomized trial is even the right design for studying psychedelics 📰 What a journalist chooses not to publish, and why not every medicine wants to be found

In this Adventures Through The Mind micro, I explain what MDMA is and why it makes us feel love.
I explain why MDMA is an entactogen rather than a classic psychedelic, and how it floods the brain with serotonin. I also discuss how it raises our sense of safety, lowers our sense of danger, and drops the emotional boundaries we normally hold, which is what made it work in couples therapy. Finally, I cover the PTSD research, and why MDMA with someone new can leave you holding an intimacy you have not earned.

Notas del episodio
This episode of the podcast is going to explore what actually happens inside psilocybin assisted therapy, from the first conversation to the last integration session.
Specifically, we are going to be walking the entire arc of a legal psilocybin therapy engagement through the lens of naturopathic medicine: preparation, the session itself, integration, the risks, and how to tell whether any of it is right for you. Our guest is Dr. JJ Pursell.
What You'll Learn About:
- 🌿 What naturopathic medicine actually is, and how its root-cause approach differs from the conventional model
- 🍄 What psilocybin is, and what "psilocybin therapy" legally means in Oregon (which is far less than you'd expect)
- 🛋️ Inside a session: the service centre, the eye shades, the music, the waves, and what a facilitator is and is not there to do
- 🔄 Why she requires every client to commit to integration work before she'll agree to work with them at all
- 💧 What "alleviating suffering" really means, why it isn't the same as feeling good, and why the hardest material is usually the most useful
- ⚠️ The real risks: the bolt response, prolonged psychosis, cardiac contraindications, HPPD, and coming out the other side feeling worse
- 🚩 How to find a facilitator you can trust, the red flags to walk away from, and how to know when it's the wrong time entirely

Is your attention being trained the same way an algorithm is trained?
In this micro, Carl Hayden Smith joins me to unpack what he calls the attention war: how algorithms and short-form media shape the brain toward ADHD-like patterns, whether you have ADHD or not. We also talk about what surfaces in the mind after a few phone-free days, and why Carl believes AI's real danger isn't sentience, but a mass hallucination of it: one that's already changing how we see ourselves.

Ibogaine is regularly categorized as a psychedelic — but that label may be misleading in ways that matter. In this micro, James offers a crash course in what ibogaine actually is: where it comes from, how its unusual pharmacology works, what it does to the mind, and why it holds a position in addiction medicine that no other drug on earth can claim. The risk profile is part of the picture too.

You can buy Lanmaoa asiatica at a food market in Yunnan. Cook it thoroughly and it's just a bolete. Undercook it, and roughly 12 to 24 hours later you may spend the next three to seven days seeing hyper-realistic miniature people moving through your environment — documented across three independent cultures, mechanism completely unknown. Ethnobotanist Colin Domnauer (Dentinger Lab, Natural History Museum of Utah) is one of the few people actively trying to understand why.
Colin and I get into what's actually documented about Lanmaoa asiatica — the three independent cultural accounts, the unusual onset and duration, and what the phenomenology of the hallucinations themselves suggests about mechanism. We talk about why this mushroom has received almost no formal scientific attention, what studying it would even look like, and what it might reveal about how psychedelic effects are produced in fungi more broadly. There's also a lot we just don't know — and we sit in that honestly.

This episode is going to be a deep dive into extended-state dimethyltryptamine, otherwise known as DMTx.
Our guests for this episode are Hayley Mann and Kevin Thorbahn, who run Dream Mind Labs one of only a handful of places in the world where DMTx is available outside of clinical trials.
They are on the show to talk about:
🧬 What DMTx is and how it works 🌀 What people experience during a DMTx session 🙋 Why people choose to undergo the experience ⏱️ How long people stay in for 💡 What people get out of the experience 🏥 Where DMTx may fit in the growing psychedelic medical and personal use landscape ⚖️ The legal situation in Colorado that allows them to legally run Dream Mind Labs ⚠️ The dangers present in undergoing DMTx 👽 The nearly universal experience of encountering and communicating with entities or aliens 🔫 The "DMT laser thing" 🎵 The role of music and sound during a DMTx session 🤯 Some of the weirder things they have experienced as facilitators
This was a super interesting interview for me, and I found Haley and Kevin very easy and joyful to talk with. It was easily one of the most at-ease and "myself" I have felt in an interview in a long time, and I look forward to sharing it with you now.
Enjoy!

Research Psychologist Jessica Corneille discusses the complex integration process that follows spontaneous spiritual experiences—particularly the disorientation, vocational tension, and identity shifts that can arise when a transformed worldview no longer aligns with one's work or social context.
The conversation explores the emergence of spiritual crisis during integration, the importance of non-hierarchical support spaces, and how connection, community, and spiritual literature (including reflections on Alan Watts) can help individuals rebuild a coherent sense of self and purpose after awakening.
