Psychedelic therapy in the media

In recent years, attention to psychedelics as an aid to therapy has grown. The growth in the number of scientific studies shows how much confidence there is in psychedelics, especially psilocybin from magic mushrooms and magic truffles. How long it will take for regular mental health care to start working with psychedelics depends on the speed of scientific research. We have previously written about these topics and our messages can be read via these hyperlinks:

Investigating psilocybin therapy

News outlets that write about psychedelics

More and more news reports about psilocybin therapy or sessions with other types of psychedelics appear. A simple search term such as psilocybin therapy today yields about 307,000 results and this was a lot less about 8 years ago when we started lifestyle coaching in combination with psilocybin truffles.

The attention for psilocybin therapy is therefore growing steadily and we are therefore often approached by Podcast makers, TV products, Youtube programs, magazines and other media outlets. The most recent is Reporters Online and it writes about trip therapy, among other things:

Completely gone psychedelic therapy never been. Therapy is still offered in the alternative circuit. At Psychedelic Therapy Netherlands, for example, that via triptherapie.nl  various types of therapy based on a tripping agent such as psilocybin (in truffles) or LSD. Initiator Marcel van der Putten worked in sports and nutrition and started Trip therapy based on the idea that a healthy body performs best when the mind is also healthy.

His approach is serious and thorough. Marcel: 'The therapy starts with the preparation. Clients receive an extensive intake and neurotransmitter test based on questions about their state of mind. For example, if someone suffers from headaches, concentration problems and worrying, this may indicate a low dose of the neurotransmitter GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid). People with a GABA deficiency can be anxious and we take that into account.'

Most of our clients suffer from depression. In addition to trip therapy, which consists of one or more psychedelic sessions at intervals of a few weeks, we also provide advice on nutrition, exercise and supplements. We see psychedelic therapy as a holistic approach where we treat the body and mind as one.'

The future of psilocybin therapy

After the final phases of the scientific studies on psilocybin have been positively completed, we can no longer ignore the fact that psilocybin must be removed from the status of hard drugs (Opium Act list 1). A possible new classification could be that it is labeled as a medicine and that means regulation. The use of the pure substance psilocybin is then probably reserved for psychiatrists and regular mental health care. The advantage of this is that health insurers will reimburse it. A disadvantage may be that if only regular care can apply it, it will become too clinical and the effect may decrease. Currently, psilocybin is not prescribed but taken voluntarily on the belief that it works. That small piece of placebo effect can evaporate by prescribing through regular care. Let's hope that psilocybin goes under the drugs and that magic truffles remain legal for the alternative approach. This way everyone can make a choice that they support themselves and that can help with the result.

Psilocybin therapy with magic truffles

Psilocybin therapy can now take place legally through the use of magic truffles with psilocybin as a component of the truffle. This is useful for people who can't or don't want to wait for the slow progress of scientific research. We offer psychedelic sessions in combination with general health advice based on an intake. Are you ready to give a psychedelic session a try?
