Everything optimised, and now what?

The job is going well, life is built, on paper it all adds up. And still the sense remains that something essential is missing.

This book explains why that is, and why more and more people are looking for the answer in a psychedelic experience. It follows people through guided psilocybin processes and shows what happens when patterns come loose that insight alone cannot reach. It connects the neuroscience behind it with what actually takes place in practice: in the preparation, during the session, in the months that follow.

A book about what is missing when everything is there. And about what sets a fulfilled life apart from a successful one.

What you'll find in this book

• How psilocybin works in the brain, and why the latest studies from Johns Hopkins and Imperial College London are redefining how we understand change

• Why insight alone changes no patterns, and what it takes instead

• How professional psychedelic guidance actually unfolds, from preparation through session to integration

• What risks and limits exist, and how to recognise serious, reputable guidance

• What can change after such an experience in everyday life, at work, and in relationships
