Episode 52: Impulse Disorders and Psychedelic/Plant Medicine with Dr Richard Louis Miller
“No one is saying if you take some psilocybin mushrooms or some LSD then you’re healed, no, it’s more like these substances help you go into your internal gold mine, where everything of importance is being and you get to see what’s inside and then after the experience in the days, weeks, months and years that follow you get to examine the nuggets of gold that you took out of that mine and shine them up. That’s when the work on impulse disorders takes place.”
Dr Richard Louis Miller – Clinical Psychologist, broadcaster and host of the Mind Body Health and Politics radio programme talks about his relationship with food, impulse control disorders and laudatory work concerning psychedelic/plant medicine and healing.
This is our first episode around psychedelic/plant medicine. I believe it is an important and exciting area of research in relation to trauma: ED behaviours and mental health dis-ease. There will be more.
Richard makes an excellent starting point! Tune in.
