Psychedelic Psychiatry&Cosmic Connections W/ Dr. David Rabin #284 - a podcast by Luke Storey

from 2020-06-02T10:00

Hello, cosmic cowboys and cowgirls. Are you ready to venture inwards?

Because we have a fantastic new episode with Dr. David Rabin, a board-certified psychiatrist and translational neuroscientist who co-founded Apollo Neuroscience and one of the vanguards leading the revolution of wellness.

Dr. Rabin co-invented the Apollo, the first scientifically-validated wearable system to improve HRV, focus, sleep, and access to meditative states by delivering gentle layered vibrations to the skin. It sounds pretty crazy, but I use it pretty much every day and the results are remarkable. And in this episode, you’ll learn all about the science behind why it works. If you want to try out an Apollo after listening to this episode, you can use code LUKE15 for 15% off at apolloneuro.com.

But that’s not all. Dr. Rabin is also helping to organize the world’s largest controlled study of psychedelic medicines, and we really get into how psychedelic therapies can help treat things like addiction, trauma, and a variety of mental illnesses.

This is a glimpse at a new paradigm of psychiatric care that is safer, more effective, and longer-lasting than our current pharmaceutical-driven system. 

As someone who’s had a lot of experience with these issues in the past, and as someone who has had a lot of success healing with some of the modalities that Dr. Rabin brings to light, it brings me extreme pleasure to be able to share this information with all of you.

 

07:10 — Dr. Rabin’s exploration of what it means to be alive today, what it means to be well, and how he’s helping others achieve that ideal

  • Taking a step back, as a doctor, to examine how well the treatment options available are working
  • Why Dr. Rabin first became interested in treatment-resistant PTSD,  depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders
  • My personal experience with psychiatric medicine

 

15:45 — The clinical use of psychedelics

  • Psychedelic means “mind manifesting”
  • When we talk about mental illness, we’re talking about patterns of behavior that we develop to cope with trauma or stress over time
  • Looking at the brain on psychedelics using fMRI
  • Luke’s experience with addiction
  • Disrupting the neural pathways of addiction
  • How shame and trauma lead us into addiction

 

33:20 — Getting to the root causes of addiction

  • Getting sober isn’t the thing that’s going to make you happy, which is hard to deal with when you first get sober
  • Hope is the most powerful medicine, although we give it a lot of different names
  • We need a radically accepting and radically nonjudgemental clinical environment
  • Human beings are the most adaptable creatures on this planet (that we’re aware of)
  • The Four Pillars
  • Using gratitude as a tool

 

56:05 — Using the Apollo

  • We’re both using the “social and open” setting during this interview
  • What it’s like to wear one of these devices
  • There’s a lot of misinformation in the wearable device space
  • Most of the things I try don’t actually seem to do anything
  • How Apollo works
  • My “junk drawer” for tech
  • Tips for stress during this time

THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:

FOUR SIGMATIC. 64% of the U.S. population is already drinking coffee, but 100% of us should be drinking Four Sigmatic coffee — because it’s more than just coffee! It has Lion's Mane, which is my favorite medicinal mushroom because it helps with focus, productivity, and creativity. It’s just like a little biohacking bomb for your brain! And what I love most about Four Sigmatic is that you can get all of that in an instant coffee, which is great for when you’re busy or on the go or just don’t want to make a cup of coffee. And of course we have a special offer for the  Life Stylist podcast audience. You will get 15% off your Four Sigmatic order when you use the code LUKESTOREY at foursigmatic.com/LUKESTOREY.

JUST THRIVE. Imagine this: a probiotic that actually does what it is supposed to do! I’ve tried so many different supplements, and when you find the right one — the one that really works — it’s like winning the lottery. So I was psyched when I tried Just Thrive Probiotic, the first and only spore-based probiotics and antioxidants. Their products have been the subject of groundbreaking clinical studies and demonstrated incomparable effects on the gut, even healing leaky gut. It’s super simple and it just works. You can use code ‘luke15’ for 15% off at JustThriveHealth.com.

BLUBLOX. BLUblox offers a complete range of evidence-backed blue light blocking glasses to suit every need (and, as a rad bonus, you won’t look like a tool while you’re wearing them). Plus, they even do prescription and reading glasses now, as well as an epic send-your-own frame service, both using the same world-renowned blue light blocking lenses. I’ve also been digging their new REMedy Sleep Mask, which blocks out 100% of the light while you’re sleeping. And it’s not just great for better sleep — it can also be used for meditation, deep touch pressure therapy, air travel, and migraine relief! You can get all of this epicness and more by using the code LIFESTYLIST for 15% off at BLUblox.com.
