We have a number of people in some foundations working on this question: how do we make sure that if the MDMA is authorized by the FDA, which it should be next year, that people who are in the city and people who have high ACEs scores and people who are of color and have no income, will be able to access it?” – Jeff Walker ================ Healing Through Psychedelics & Energy Work with Jeff Walker & Raghu Markus – Mindrolling Ep. 515 - https://youtu.be/VUJjbfoXhLs Raghu Markus – Mindrolling – Ep. 515 – Healing Through Psychedelics and Energy Work with Jeff Walker - https://beherenownetwork.com/raghu-markus-mindrolling-ep-515-healing-through-psychedelics-and-energy-work-with-jeff-walker ================ Make sure not to miss a single video podcast from Be Here Now Network!
