Catalyzing Insights with Conscious & Psychedelic Practices

Mar 8, 2025

2:30pm – 3:30pm CT

Throughout history, extraordinary altered states of consciousness created great art, world-changing inventions, and enabled humans to survive and thrive. Dr. Damer and Dr. Doss will share the latest scientific research and cultures of practice showing that combining endogenous practice (e.g. meditation) and exogenous catalysts (e.g. psychedelics) can supercharge the creative mindset. Intention, set, setting, and intellectual setup can invite creative downloads. Discoveries, products, or companies can result, marking steps in a conscious psychedelic innovator's journey.
