In this summer's "The Best of MBM" series we replay our episode from January 2024 about psychedelic assisted therapy and a groundbreaking clinical trial of the use of psilocybin for cancer patients at the Sunstone Therapies Clinic in Maryland. Guest and clinical trial participant, Alice Grasset was a client of therapist Dr. Brian Richards. Brian and his father Dr. Bill Richards are featured in a recent Netflix show, How to Change Your Mind hosted by Michael Pollan. Bill Richards was a pioneer in the research of the use of psychedelics in health care from 1967 to 1977.
Alice describes her psilocybin experience, the dissolution of the ego and the realization that she is part of something larger. Alice left the corporate world and launched the Sparkles of Grace program for breast cancer survivors that utilizes yoga, meditation, and coaching.
After the interview MindBody Matters co-hosts Greg Rennie and Rob Wreford discuss how they are now convinced that the use of psychedelics can help people struggling with a cancer diagnosis, depression and PTSD. Greg, who is a Psychotherapist considers using providing psychedelic assisted therapy.
