The Science of Psychedelics & Nature Connectedness

This talk explores the connection between psychedelics, shamanic traditions, and ecological awareness.

Drawing from ecopsychology, ethnobotany, and related disciplines, it presents animism as a way to understand consciousness, strengthen human-nature relationships, and respond to the environmental challenges facing the planet.
