  • What I discovered at a 10 day Vipassana (silent meditation) - EP 55

    Vipassana is an ancient Buddhist meditation technique that changes lives by simply getting you to observe sensations in the body and the breath but not try to change anything. It teaches us detachment because nothing is permanent. Have a listen.

  • Investigating Psychedelics for Mental Health with Dr Kathryn Ledden - EP 53

    Kathryn (Kat) is a Clinical Research Fellow at Trinity College Dublin, and part of a Psychedelic Science Research Group including Dr John Kelly and Prof. Andrew Harkin. Kat is also a Director of PsyCare Ireland, Welfare and Harm Reduction, and Irish Doctors for Psychedelic Assisted Therapy (IDPAT), who will be holding Ireland's first psychedelic science conference in TCD on 25th October. Day-to-day, Kat primarily investigates the use of psychedelics for specific mental health conditions that haven’t responded to typical treatments, such as depression, anorexia nervosa, and post-traumatic stress disorder.  Kat has a background in Psychology and Social Care, and has a keen interest in the promotion of health through holistic means such as social connection, music, meditation and spiritual practice, and ceremonial cacao.  On this episode, Kat talks about their work, the wider social and political context around psilocybin, safety in psychedelic use, altered states of consciousness as well as a new way that we can look at "bad trips".
