The ancient psychedelics myth: ‘People tell tourists the stories they think are interesting for them’
The narrative of ancient tribes around the world regularly using ayahuasca and magic mushrooms in healing practices is a popular one. Is it true?
People often claim psychedelics have been used globally, for millennia, & in rituals of psychological healing.
In today's Guardian Long Read, I show what these stories get wrong & why the reality is far more interesting: www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

Psychedelic Ethics Beside Institutions
Published in The American Journal of Bioethics (Vol. 25, No. 1, 2025)
I recently published a short commentary on #psychedelic #ethics in AJOB. I'm so glad I got to bring insights from my #ethnographic fieldwork into this conversation. I've learned so much from my interlocutors, and I hope other #bioethicists will too!
