The post covers the main dose categories used in clinical research and retreat practice, what the Johns Hopkins studies found about mystical experience as a predictor of lasting change, why individual variability means the same dose lands differently in different people, how dosage decisions are made in a guided ceremony, and why the container — set, setting, and integration support — is as pharmacologically relevant as the dose itself.
