“I see far more success in the psychedelic sphere with people that have something to augment the experience with. If you go back to your desk on a Monday morning and are just unaware of these transformations and not making any effort to tap in, it will fade. I think it's an essential ingredient that you need to make it successful.” – Zach Leary
