概要
In this episode of Minds on Mushrooms, I sit down with psychotherapist and relationship expert Jonathan Robinson, who has explored MDMA both personally and professionally for more than 50 years.
Together we explore how MDMA works in the brain and body, why it’s often described as a heart-opening medicine, and how thoughtful set, setting, and emotional safety can create powerful opportunities for connection and healing between partners.
We talk about the science, the emotional openness this medicine can create, and the relational possibilities that emerge when defenses lower and compassion rises.
In this conversation, we explore: • How MDMA affects fear and trust in the brain • Why the medicine can increase empathy and emotional connection • The importance of preparation, intention, and environment • How couples can create supportive spaces for deeper conversations • What decades of experience reveal about MDMA and relationships
If you're curious about MDMA-assisted therapy, psychedelic science, or new approaches to relationship healing, this conversation offers a thoughtful and grounded perspective.
