This blissful episode covers the synergies between meditation and psilocybin and features a conversation with Zen monk and entheogen devotee— Vanja Palmers. Vanja has contributed to the first, and currently only, scientific paper on the effects of psilocybin on experienced meditators. We talk about their key findings, metrics, and mechanisms. We also discuss some tips and tricks for how you can introduce psilocybin into your meditation practice, and the many benefits that this notable pair can offer.
