39. The Effects of Psychedelic Therapy on Personality & Spirituality


Listen Later

The effects of psychedelic therapy on personality & spirituality have been a fairly well-studied axis throughout the history of psychedelic research. Today, Nicholas and Jimmy Nguyen delve into the science behind the big five personality traits and how psychedelics impact them. 


They explore how the psychedelic experience can create space between an individual and their neuroses, leading to a shift in perspective and an increase in many personality traits. But, why does every trait experience a change, while Agreeableness remains unaffected?


Our hosts differentiate between spirituality and religion, explaining how and why psychedelics can lead to a deeper sense of spirituality for many individuals, even those who are agnostic or atheist. Before closing off, Nicholas and Jimmy share some tips for exploring spirituality and offer practical advice on integrating psychedelic experiences into your life. 


This episode is part of the Psychedelic Passage Podcast X Blog series. For an in-depth analysis of the research studies and anecdotal evidence that informed this conversation, check out “How Psychedelic Therapy Can Change Personality & Spirituality"
