Psychedelics Don't Distort Reality – They Reveal How Your Brain Constructs It
Get 30 Days of Waking Up Free → https://www.wakingup.com/makingsense Learn more → https://wakingup.com/LSD UNRAVELLING THE DREAM: A New Documentary Executive Produced by Sam Harris What you perceive as reality is a controlled hallucination your brain constructs moment by moment. And you are part of it. Unraveling the Dream explores what happens when that construction begins to fall apart – when the boundary between you and the world disintegrates, and the sense of self drops away. Revisiting Aldous Huxley’s early experiments with mescaline, examining the latest neuroscience of consciousness, and drawing on interviews with leading researchers, the film follows a central question: What are we, really, when the illusion dissolves? And once we’ve seen it, how do we live it? Featuring: Anil Seth Robin Carhart-Harris Shamil Chandaria Psychedelic medicine should only be used under the guidance of a trained professional and in accordance with local laws.
