For a few years now, the tech mecca has been Silicon Valley<\/strong><\/a> completely under the spell of hallucinogens.<\/p>\n

Lifehacker and author of the international bestseller \"The 4-hour Workweek,\" Tim Ferriss, is a role model within the tech world. He **claims<\/a>**even that virtually all the billionaires he knows use hallucinogens on a regular basis to become more creative.<\/p>\n

Especially in the tech world, the following creative idea can be worth billions<\/strong><\/a> are. Thus, anything that seems to help in this regard is completely hyped.<\/p>\n

Despite there being quite a taboo on speaking out about something like hallucinogens, there are many more prominent figures who are openly enthusiastic about them. Consider Joe Rogan<\/strong><\/a> (the stand-up comedian and martial artist who managed to sell his podcast to Spotify for $100 million) who looked like it in his shows multiple times<\/strong><\/a> talks about.<\/p>\n

Bill Wilson, founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, has considered the use of hallucinogens within the AA programs<\/strong><\/a>, because it addiction<\/strong><\/a> would counteract. Even biochemist and Nobel laureate Kary Mullis attributed his Nobel Prize-worthy invention to the use of the hallucinogenic drugs<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Steve Jobs, who died in 2011, was the founder and creative brain behind Apple. He, too, is said to owe much of his creativity to his many hallucinogenic trips. High on psychedelics, he came up with the most creative ideas and solutions. For example, the name Apple was coined during a trip on an **[apple farm](https:\/\/money.cnn.com\/2015\/01\/25\/technology\/kottke-lsd-steve-jobs\/#:~:text=Jobs has been quoted as,another fellow tripper from Reed.)**<\/a>.<\/p>\n

By now, then, the Silicon Valley hype is transcended<\/strong><\/a>. Worldwide the interest<\/strong><\/a> into the benefits of psychedelia. Also in the business<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

And in particular, a special method. In fact, a method where you are not supposed to hallucinate at all: microdosing. Simply put; where with tripping you go for a life-changing experience of a few hours, with microdosing you use a tenth of the amount so that you remain fully aware of everything around you.<\/p>\n

At most, you experience more energy, a more positive mindset<\/strong><\/a>, higher concentration and more creativity. Moreover, it seems that it could be a new remedy in the treatment of depression<\/strong><\/a>, PTSD<\/strong><\/a> and mitigation of suffering at terminal<\/strong><\/a> patients<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Concrete scientific research is as yet scarce<\/strong><\/a>, because hallucinogens (for now)<\/strong><\/a> are illegal almost everywhere. But interest is also rising sharply in science toe<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Indeed, one of the first international scientific studies on the positive effects of the microdosing on our creativity<\/strong><\/a> comes from Leiden University (what a small country isn't big on anyway). In it, psychology professor Bernard Hommel shows that microdosing with psychedelics can indeed increase our creativity.<\/p>\n

For science, this is merely an indication that further research is warranted. A growing number of **experiencers<\/a>**worldwide, however, is fully convinced that psychedelics can make a valuable contribution to innovation within society, business and your own personal development<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

If even the infamous boxer Mike Tyson<\/strong><\/a> on his knees, calmed down and influenced positively, then it might be worth a try.<\/p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
