Black Mental Health & Psychedelic Therapeutic Potential

Black Mental Health & Psychedelic Therapeutic Potential

Psychedelics have long played a significant role in various African cultures, particularly in the realm of healing and spirituality. These mind-altering substances, derived from plants such as iboga and psilocybin mushrooms, have been employed by African communities for centuries to open the doorway for deep introspection, facilitate communication with ancestors, and confront physical and psychological ailments.

Educator and researcher Darren Le Baron is a keen mushroom cultivator and has been growing gourmet and medicinal mushrooms for over ten years. Darren is a knowledgeable and dynamic speaker who is passionate about sharing his research and findings on ancient African plant medicines, the history and various applications.
