Dr. Robin Carhart-Harris, a distinguished professor of neurology and psychiatry at the University of California, San Francisco joins WHOOP VP of Performance Science, Principal Scientist, Kristen Holmes on this episode. Dr. Carhart-Harris is one of the leading researchers in the study of how psychedelics such as psilocybin, LSD, and DMT can change the human brain and in doing so, be used to successfully treat various mental health challenges such as major depression, anorexia, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and addiction. Kristen and Robin discuss the etymology of psychedelics, researching altered states and altered consciousness, recreational use of psychedelics, how attitudes around psychedelics are changing, the most promising and exciting aspects of psychedelic research, physiological markers impacted by psychedelics, the optimal time to explore psychedelic treatment, what it means to biologically “let go”, the performance-enhancing possibilities of psychedelics, legality in the U.S., what Robin is obsessing over, and the biggest benefits of psychedelics.
