Mind Medicine Australia really pulling out all the desperation-marketing tactics for their “once in a lifetime opportunity“ to be trained by Francois Bourzat et al.

I don’t expect any psychedelics conferences to cut ties with Deepak Chopra over Epstein — they already chose to ignore his victims and reams of other evidence, decades old, for why should have nothing to do with teaching people about psychedelic therapy or anything at all

Deepak Chopra happy to see a civil lawsuit re: sexual abuse of 13yr old girl dropped against his good friend Jeffrey Epstein

Question answered: *no* proceeds from The Tell went to @mapsorg.bsky.social -- appreciate the follow-up (= I was suspicious and wrong).

Where are the proceeds being donated? I don't know. I find it odd anyone needs to ask -- why wouldn't they just be transparent about it?

In Keezelman's 127pg. memoir about recovering repressed memories, "Kate", the pseudonym for her psychologist, comes up 259 times.

There is no dispute about her misrepresentation

@mja.com.au I sent you an email yesterday about an article by "medical practitioner" Cathy Keezelman - she is not a medical practitioner and I've reported her to AHPRA, along with the "facts" on repressed memories the Blue Knot Foundation promotes. I hope you'll consider removing her article.

I've emailed Rick and @mapsorg.bsky.social before and have always really appreciated that they are open and responsive. Makes it extra weird that the first time I'm getting no response from anyone is when I'm asking a very simple question about whether any proceeds from The Tell were donated to MAPS

I also think its questionable to set-up a binary of trained/untrained as representing whether clinicians will be competent/ethical. If I didn't know anything about current research, I would feel mislead to find out some of the biggest research was retracted and "trained" unethical guides are rampant

Not a passing mention of risks from guru-ism/unscrupulous/exploitative actors in either above/underground settings in JHU's new $75 coursera intro to psychedelic medicines.

Co-author of Consciousness Medicine, Kristina Hunter, is extremely clear about no longer endorsing Bourzat and yet Bessel van der Kolk, Gabor Mate, Bill Richards, Rick Doblin, David Nutt etc. are all fine with teaching alongside her for Mind Medicine Australia. www.kristinahunter.com/consciousnes...

There is a spiritual-not-religious white woman from Boston on this season of Survivor which means theres a non-0 chance that breathwork and/or psychedelic therapy/repressed memories will come up at some point. let’s see what happens…
