People often ask: can psychedelics help me to be happier? This might seem like a straightforward question, but first, we should define what we mean by “happiness.”
To better investigate the question, we’ll explore two specific types of happy feelings: joy and contentment. We’ll define the differences between them, look into the ways they’re interconnected, and explore the nuances of how we identify, define, and value our positive emotions.
In today’s communities and societies, it can feel like we’re losing touch with our joy and contentment, and we may even question our ability to foster these feelings. So let’s dig into some of the ways that intentional psychedelic use can help us to rediscover the capacities we each hold within ourselves to find, create, and hold on to more joy and contentment in our lives.
This episode is supported by North Spore, helping people explore the wellness benefits of legal functional mushrooms. If you’re interested in cognitive support, focus, immune resilience, or deepening your relationship with fungi, North Spore has tinctures, supplements, chocolates, coffee, and more.
