Jerónimo Mazarrasa - What comes after the Psychedelic Renaissance? A vision for the future

Indigenous knowledge and sustainable technologies offer a necessary alternative to current clinical psychedelic models focused solely on individual self-actualization. Traditional practices emphasize the preservation of both the land and the people, shifting the focus towards community well-being and long-term cultural continuity. This perspective moves beyond personal healing to consider the broader systemic and ecological impact of psychedelic use. Psychedelic integration should prioritize these communal and political dimensions rather than commodification within a medicalized system. Collaborative efforts between scientists and indigenous lineage holders can foster more sustainable practices that treat substances as elements of a living culture rather than isolated medical tools. Meaningful, prosocial results depend on grounding these experiences within a supportive community framework.
