Today we talk with Will Siu. Will is a Los Angeles based psychiatrist providing psychotherapy and medication management using a holistic and integrative approach. Will maintains a belief in psychedelic medicine as a tool to heal our unprocessed emotional material and open us to a greater connection to life.

Our conversation revolved around how Psychedelics is can be used to heal trauma and how we can integrate this pathway in community in a way that is supportive of individual and collective healing. We touch upon:

- The definitions of 'trauma' and 'psychedelics.'

- The 4 distinct uses of psychedelics

- How to work with psychedelics in a balanced and grounded way.

- How catharsis helps us in healing and moving through trauma 

- Psychedelics, psychiatry, western medicine and spirituality.

- Psychedelic assisted therapy - the pros and cons.

- Synchronicity. Life purpose and heart alignment.
