Higher Self by Dr. Gregor Hasler explores the healing power of psychedelics through real stories and cutting-edge research.In a world increasingly driven by abstract concepts and digital noise, we've lost touch with the immediacy of perception--and with it, the richness of life itself. As psychiatrist and psychotherapist Gregor Hasler warns, when we trade direct experience for constant mental overdrive, we sacrifice connection, complexity, and emotional vitality. In Higher Self, Hasler makes a bold and timely case for the transformative potential of psychedelics in psychotherapy. Backed by decades of clinical research and hands-on therapeutic work, this groundbreaking book explores how substances like psilocybin and MDMA can help heal the defining afflictions of our era--loneliness, anxiety, depression, trauma, and existential emptiness--and guide us back to what truly matters. Hasler weaves together neuroscience, psychology, spirituality, and ancient wisdom to reveal how psychedelics can unlock neuroplasticity, dissolve rigid mental patterns, and open the door to lasting emotional and spiritual growth. Through vivid case studies and accessible science, he demystifies the emerging "psychedelic renaissance" while addressing its risks with nuance and clarity. For therapists, scientists, spiritual seekers, and the psychedelic-curious, Higher Self offers a map back to connection, presence, and healing in an overstimulated world.
