In this episode, Kyle interviews Tommy Aceto: former Navy Seal and trauma medic, and now, ambassador for the Veteran Mental Health Leadership Coalition and advisor at Beond Ibogaine.

He talks about how much the psychedelic space focuses on healing and mental health, but doesn’t talk enough about the overall wellness that can come from a consistent practice: that the more you become aware of your body, emotions, and breath, the more robust your neural pathways will become – and that you can actually change your neurochemistry and build a more energetically powerful system. With these pathways being opened, fewer psychedelic experiences are necessary, and with practice, these mind states can be achieved simply through meditation or breathwork. The idea of surrender and entering a state of receivership is scary, but he believes the most important skill to begin that transformation is to learn how to truly let go.

He also talks about:

  • What the psychedelic scene is like in Nashville and the south
  • His work with the Kentucky Opioid Abatement Advisory Commission and what happened with the bill to grant 42 million for ibogaine research
  • His most powerful 5-MeO-DMT experience and how it reconnected him with the divine
  • The science and practice of gratitude: how reframing painful experiences can actually rewire the brain
  • How cold exposure (notably ice baths) can prepare your system for a psychedelic experience

and more! Happy New Year from all of us at Psychedelics Today. Let's hope for big psychedelic wins in 2025!
