  • Cutting Out Cluster Headaches w/ Bob Wold
    Aug 14 2023

    ⁠Webinar on 8/26/23⁠

    Today’s episode of chronic pain rewired is one for the books! I had a great conversation with Bob Wold, the founder of an organization called Clusterbusters, an advocacy group for people suffering from cluster headaches. If you’ve never heard of cluster headaches before, stay tuned because it’s the first thing we talk about, and you’re going to want to hear about this bafflingly devastating condition commonly referred to as “suicide headaches.”


    Bob is 70 years old and he was diagnosed with Cluster Headaches approximately 45 years ago, which eventually led to his founding Clusterbusters in 2002. Clusterbusters was founded upon the principles of the need for psychedelic research proving its benefits as a safe and effective treatment for cluster headaches, one of the most devastatingly painful conditions known to mankind.

  • Processing Pain and Trauma with Payam
    Aug 4 2023

    As you probably know by now, the techniques I use for tackling chronic pain with psychedelics revolve mostly around combining this experience with posture therapy. And while I see great results with my techniques, they are by no means the only way to target pain using psychedelics. There are most certainly other ways to go about it, and in this episode I had the pleasure of talking with someone who does just that. When it comes to pain that is firmly rooted in emotional trauma, the techniques we discuss here might be even better suited for the task than what I do!

    Payam is a Psychedelic Somatic Internal Family Systems Practitioner and Medicine Carrier who interfaces with various traditional and non-traditional psychedelic compounds in the treatment of trauma and chronic pain.

  • Meet a Mushroom Maestro - Eric Osborne w/ Psanctuary
    Jul 26 2023

    Meet a Mushroom Maestro

    Many people seeking healing find that spirituality and mysticism are a fundamental aspect of the psychedelic experience with psilocybin mushrooms. Indigenous peoples across the world have since time immemorial considered these mushrooms to be a sacrament that allows for direct communion with the divine aspects of reality. Those traditions are being reinvigorated and reinvented in the United States in modern form as a result of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which allows spiritual communities to operate using psilocybin mushrooms responsibly as a sacrament, and with considerable legal protection.

    Today's guest on Chronic Pain Rewired can speak to this better than anyone I know. He is one of the most highly experienced psilocybin facilitators in the entire world, having legally administered over 3,000 doses of psilocybin. I’m talking of course about Eric Osborne. For more than 20 years Eric has been an outspoken advocate for the healing potential of psilocybin mushrooms.

  • Modeling Reality & The Posturedelic Hypothesis
    Jul 10 2023
    How do our brains process pain? We tend to think that something happens in the body, like stubbing a toe, the nervous system sends signals to the brain, and we feel the pain. But as it turns out, this is an extremely overly simplistic model. When we get into the areas of anticipated pain, chronic pain, and phantom limb pain things get flat out WEIRD! Today we’re talking about the fact that our conscious experiences of reality and the way that our brains construct those experiences are two WILDLY different things. Specifically, we’re going to apply these concepts to the ways that our brains process pain. We’ll also discuss some other studies that tie into this topic. All studies mentioned are cited and/or linked below. This will all lead up to something I call the Posturedelic Hypothesis, as well as a model for how this hypothesis could be tested. But there’s LOTS to discuss before we get there. Chapters: Introduction 00:08 Is Pain "All in Your Head?"
