Conducted on 28 participants, this placebo-controlled study found that psilocybin improved cognitive flexibility, psychological insight, and well-being even a month after the dose. Using brain scans, researchers saw decreased connectivity in certain brain regions, which interestingly correlated with higher well-being. Join us as we unpack the science behind how psychedelics might just be rewiring our minds for the better.REFERENCE:Human brain changes after first psilocybin use2024-10-1708 minThe Human Upgrade: Biohacking for Longevity & PerformanceThe Human Upgrade: Biohacking for Longevity & Performance4 Experts Share Tips to Boost Brain Health, Focus, and ThinkingIn this special episode of The Human Upgrade, you will gain insights from four experts on brain health, memory, attention, and cognitive enhancement. Dr. Daniel Amen, a renowned psychiatrist and brain health expert, discusses the importance of daily practices for brain and mental health.
