What is consciousness and what can psychedelics teach us about the nature of conscious awareness?
Episode description
What is consciousness? Is it unique to humans? Is a bat, a tree, or an AI agent conscious? What does it mean for something to be subconscious or unconscious? What does altering consciousness with psychedelic compounds teach us about its nature? How does understanding consciousness help us improve our mental health?
In today’s episode of the Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers podcast, we discuss these questions and more as we explore the nature of conscious awareness.
