When I finished the manuscript for my book, ELDEREVOLUTION – Psychedelics and the New Counterculture of Aging, and delivered it to the publisher, the excitement soon gave way to a deep emptiness. Who am I if not a writer? And aren’t I happiest researching and writing about the topic that fascinates me most?
The book may be finished, but the field of psychedelics as it relates to older life continues to evolve. I decided to create a newsletter where I can cover these new developments as they unfold.
In weekly posts I’ll be covering everything from scientific studies related to psychedelics and aging, to policy developments to expert perspectives on safe and meaningful journeying in older life. My intention is that these collected posts will serve as a resource to help psychedelically-curious older adults understand and navigate this complex and nuanced field.
You can read the first issue of the ELDEREVOLUTION newsletter here. There is no cost to subscribe.
I decided not to automatically switch subscribers of my blog to the newsletter, so if you are a blog subscriber and want to continue hearing from me, I encourage you to subscribe directly in the newsletter.
I hope you’ll join me in this new forum. While there are many newsletters about psychedelics, this is the only one focused through the lens of aging. And what a fascinating topic it is!
As always, I love to hear from readers. Feel free to reach out to me at abbieros at gmail dot com with questions, comments, thoughts!
