Ketamine normalizes hyperactivity in key brain region of depressed patients

There is no shortage of psychological and pharmacological therapies to combat the world’s most widespread mental health issue, major depressive disorder (MDD). However, a significant portion of the affected population fail to respond to many of these traditional therapies. For this reason, new drugs must be tested and validated. One promising candidate is ketamine –famously but somewhat improperly known as a horse tranquilizer.

However, the manner by which ketamine acts is not well known, meaning that clinicians are still circumspect regarding its use in treating MDD. Recently, researchers in New York look at how ketamine affects the subgenual anterior cingulate cortex (sgACC), a region of the brain whose hyperactivity has proven ties to MDD. The recent study, which appeared in Neuropsychopharmacology, helps bridge this gap in the literature.

Psychedelic experience may not be required for psilocybin's antidepressant-like benefits

University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) researchers have shown that psilocybin—the active chemical in 'magic mushrooms'— still works its antidepressant-like actions, at least in mice, even when the psychedelic experience is blocked. The new findings suggest that psychedelic drugs work in multiple ways in the brain and it may be possible to deliver the fast-acting antidepressant therapeutic benefit without requiring daylong guided therapy sessions. A version of the drug without, or with less of, the psychedelic effects could loosen restrictions on who could receive the therapy, and lower costs, making the benefits of psilocybin more available to more people in need.

If there is to be any kind of social change, there must be a different kind of education so that children are not brought up to conform

There is no end to education. It is not that you read a book, pass an examination, and finish with education. The whole of life, from the moment you are born to the moment you die, is a process of learning.

- Jiddu Krishnamurti

A testimony of being out of touch with your body, spirit, and soul?

The biggest oxymoron: yoga teachers, spiritual leaders/teachers, somatic/embodiment therapists/teachers, healers, energy workers, bodyworkers/massage therapists, and anyone in the "wellness industry" taking the j[a]b. It couldn't be more of a testimony of being out of touch with your body, spirit, and soul. True colors revealed. The ultimate litmus test for embodied [self]awareness. 5-10 years from now they will see what they have done and the truth will reveal itself more and more and it is not going to be a pretty picture. For now, they laugh at us, gaslight us, and ridicule us with their ad hominem "conspiracy theorist" attack [logical fallacy] and socially conditioned virtue signaling. May God have mercy on their soul for they do not know what they do, programmed like lambs to the slaughter.

The once reluctant mystic

Going through my bookhoard is like going through past lives, I leaf through my own leaves of grass. Whisperings of so many interests unpursued; so many possibilities and pathways. Many chances I had at living out my personality in the old world, a career I might have had or a book I could have written but I didn't. 

Why not then if all these subjects are so interesting and worth looking into? 

They all wither in the face of my awakening. They all fall short in the light of my transition. Even the deeper layers of personality and preference feel shallow and even pitiful as my consciousness returns from other dimensions. We are in a spiritual war, this is a prison planet.

Yet here they remain, remnants of my identity on which I can comfortingly reminisce. 

Everything academic has been reduced to hollow pretense, what once seemed so worthy now subtracted from what really matters. Aware I am of how mechanical this density has become to me. The inner voice becomes louder each day and now I can proudly say: I am not of the world although I am still in it.

I heard the call, many trumpets in the sky. 

A population of slaves who do not have to be coerced because they love their servitude

“A really efficient totalitarian state would be one in which the all-powerful executive of political bosses and their army of managers control a population of slaves who do not have to be coerced because they love their servitude.”

― Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
