humorous style it covers diverse topics such as shamanism, nutrition, psychotherapy,
meditation and protest against draconian mental health legislation.

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.
