Mind Medicine Australia (MMA) is a charitable organization that seeks to expand the treatment options available to medical practitioners in Australia and their patients suffering from mental illnesses. They focus on developing safe and effective psychedelic-assisted therapies with the help of trained MDMA and psilocybin therapists and offering a Certificate in Psychedelic Assisted Therapies (CPAT) (the first in the Southern Hemisphere).
Today on the podcast we are going to be talking about psychedelic assisted therapies that utilize MDMA and psilocybin mushrooms therapy for depression, PTSD, anxiety, end-of-life distress, dementia, anorexia, and opioid, alcohol, and smoking addictions, as well as what is next for Mind Medicine Australia.

The New York Times bestseller Johann Hari’s Lost Connections offering a radical new way of thinking about depression and anxiety.
There was a mystery haunting award-winning investigative journalist Johann Hari. He was thirty-nine years old, and almost every year he had been alive, depression and anxiety had increased in Britain and across the Western world. Why?
He had a very personal reason to ask this question. When he was a teenager, he had gone to his doctor and explained that he felt like pain was leaking out of him, and he couldn't control it or understand it. Some of the solutions his doctor offered had given him some relief-but he remained in deep pain.
So, as an adult, he went on a forty-thousand-mile journey across the world to interview the leading experts about what causes depression and anxiety, and what solves them. He learned there is scientific evidence for nine different causes of depression and anxiety and that this knowledge leads to a very different set of solutions: ones that offer real hope.
