At MykoNet, we believe:--Advancements in psychedelic research can help us deeply transform social, economic, and political systems by changing individual and collective behaviour.--Psychedelics are more than just chemical catalysts; it's about mindset, worldview, and guiding principles. Goals include social justice and personal wellbeing.--Scientific breakthroughs can be galvanized by research on psychedelics, which are increasingly being recognized as tools for understanding the nature of consciousness and reality.--Now is the time to conceptualize the types of research questions that might emerge beyond the clinical domain.In the 1990s, there were no graduate programs in the study of consciousness. Instead of settling for something I did not want to do, I decided to travel the world as a digital nomad. I earned a living from the strangest freelance writing gig you could imagine. On my journeys, I met the Dalai Lama, sailed to Antarctica, took a train from Moscow to Beijing, traipsed through Tasmania, toured breweries in North Korea, lived in huts in the South Pacific and earthships in New Mexico. Now I'm channeling as much energy as possible into solving the mysteries of the universe.
