Welcome to the Hurt to Healing podcast with me, Pandora Morris. I’ve been fighting an uphill battle with my mental health for years and it’s only now that I’ve started to see some glimmers of light. It’s almost unbelievable to think I am starting this podcast considering my incessant compulsions would normally try to talk me out of it. But here I am, continuing to fight my invisible bullies one day at a time. As part of my own recovery, I’ve made it my mission to support as many of you as possible on your own healing journey. I’ll be speaking to wonderful people from all walks of life who will open up about their own invisible struggles in the hope that it will provide a bit of solace and comfort for some of you. I’ll also be speaking to leading experts and doctors about different disorders and therapies that might help each of you expand your knowledge on the world of mental health. Visit my website www.hurttohealing.co.uk to learn more about me and the work that I do.Produced by Rutherford Productions Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

HEALING 101: The stigma behind psychedelics with Rayyan Zafar
On today’s HEALING 101, I am speaking to Rayyan Zafar - a Neuropsychopharmacologist at Imperial College Centre for Psychedelic research where he explores the neurobiology of drugs and addiction and how psychedelics may be used to treat individuals with mental health conditions. Rayyan also works as a research officer for Drug Science, conducting policy and scientific work in the area of drug policy and also appeared in a documentary looking at the impact of medical cannabis for children with epilepsy. I’m talking to him today all about addiction and how psychedelics might begin to play a more vital part in treatment.
