He has had many years of formal scientific research experience as well as informal personal experience with both natural and synthetic psychedelic drugs. He has carefully and thoroughly explored the experience from both the psychological and the spiritual perspectives. This book summarizes his observations and conclusions regarding the benefits and the safety of the psychedelic experience including the experience provided by occasional sessions with mild legal marijuana. It also provides considerable useful structure for the experience itself and explains how it can be harnessed to work toward specific personal goals.view less
