- Key takeaways from this first systematic review on psychedelic-catalysed insight: insights are ubiquitous, moderately to strongly correlated with dose, and tend to be rated as genuinely insightful even years after the experience.
- Of greatest clinical relevance, 86% of studies found insight was associated with therapeutic benefit. Notably, the relationship was often stronger than mystical-type experiences, which have received more research attention.
- Huge thank you to my primary supervisor @pliknaitzky.bsky.social and all co-authors @existwell.bsky.social @rubenlaukkonen.bsky.social and Murat Yucel .

- I've long thought that hemispheric lateralisation could be an important lens for understanding psychedelic phenomenology and sequelae. Adam Levin's recent paper finally addresses this previously neglected topic. doi.org/10.1177/0269...
