system. Presenting clear information in a humorous style it covers diverse topics
such as shamanism, nutrition, psychotherapy, meditation and protest against draconian
mental health legislation.
Produced by Undercurrents & Melissa Gunasena,
Evolving Minds explores the connection between psychosis and spiritual experience
and provides techniques for people to explore and take control of their own minds.
An invaluable resource that will educate, empower and inform.
Includes exclusive
footage of British army experiments with LSD.

film is timely and fascinating exploration into the very nature of "madness'
