Mindfulness Enhances Psilocybin Experience

Among 40 meditators given psilocybin on the 4th day of a meditation retreat,
"Psilocybin markedly increased the incidence and intensity of self-transcendence virtually without inducing any anxiety compared to participants who received the placebo"

The research group found that besides meditation depth, the participants' openness and optimism were conducive to a positive response to psilocybin.
