Psychedelics & Nature Connectedness

A growing body of research is showing that psychedelics can influence people’s connection to nature. What makes psychedelics such as psilocybin promising agents for enhancing nature connectedness, and what are the potential implications of this at a time of growing mental health and ecological crises? What overlap is there between the mechanisms underpinning how psychedelics and contact with nature can confer benefits to our mental well-being? And how might we maximise this synergy between nature and psychedelics to improve mental health?
