Fireside Chat: Can Psychedelics Foster Human Development In The Face Of Dying? with Ira Byock, MD and Tony Bossis, PhD

At every stage in human life, personal growth is commonly engendered by a developmental crisis. If dying is seen through a developmental lens, are there opportunities for healing and growth within the processes of life completion and closure? Join palliative care physician and author, Ira Byock, and clinical psychologist and psychedelics researcher, Anthony Bossis, for a lively discussion of how skillfully guided psychedelic experiences assist people to grow through the difficult, but normal, final stage of life.
