Psychedelics For Peak Performance
Unlocking Our Potential To Do Great Work
They say excellence is by design. In this Trip To The Microverse, explore how the intentional use of psychedelics may support a mindset geared towards greatness.
Most of us have experienced the peak state of “flow” when we “become one with our work or play.” But when we need it most, many struggle to reach this high-performance “state.”
The world's top performers are different—creatives, entrepreneurs, athletes, and moguls all have routines that prepare their minds and bodies for peak performance. They can reach the flow state on demand because they have prepared their nervous systems to perform under stress.
Accomplished individuals practice effective and restorative habits that allow them to consistently improve their abilities, a fraction of a % at a time, taking them to the top of their field.
Join us on this —Trip to The Microverse, where we highlight eight extraordinary individuals who strategically use psychedelics to achieve peak performance, work with past traumas, and manage today's pressures.
