Psilocybin & Meditation Study Making Progress

The researchers at Johns Hopkins have finally accumulated their target of 40 long term meditators not previously exposed to psilocybin.

“There was a participant in the study who had had an extensive, extensive practice, like tens of thousands of hours of meditation, which is an incredibly extreme amount,” said Frederick Barrett, PhD at the Johns Hopkins Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. “And she indicated after her psilocybin session that she relived all of the peak experiences she had ever had meditating. Wow.”
