Mystical experiences have a core set of characteristics that seem to promote mental wellbeing and flourishing. People who have mystical experiences, including psychedelic trips, report feeling a profound unity with something vast and deeply meaningful. This unity with “the divine,” (or whatever you want to call it) is accompanied by a diminished focus on ego-centric concerns.  

The minds of people who have had a mystical experience seems to be altered for the better. What can mysticism teach us about flourishing and mind management? Can we train our minds to be more open to mystical revelations?
