Psychedelics in Brain Change: The 8 Circuit Model in Neuroscience, Psychology, and Meta-programming
With the recent resurgence of interest and research into psychedelics and the influence of non-ordinary states of consciousness in mental wellness, we will explore the realm of conscious brain and thought pattern change. This will be looked at within the context of the 8 circuit model, originally developed by Dr. Timothy Leary, as a functional framework for these states of consciousness and personal development in the realm of neuroscience and mental health.
