This book was very well structured and easy for someone who has never read much about this topic to follow along and understand. The book was approachable and I learned a lot about this topic that I didn't know much about when I first started to read it. I love finding books about new topics and reading about it and this book is great for people who are curious about the topic and wants to learn more about it.

Psychedelics and the Soul is an insightful read about the archetypal journey of psychedelics and the mythological themes that arise as one meets their soul through drug induced experiences. This book was fascinating on many levels, from the myths the author used as gateways into the depths of psychedelic healing, to the case studies of participants in psychedelic healing. The archetypal journey of healing is not specific to mind altering substances but to any deep psychological work as the archetypes are found embedded in the collective unconscious and spans most cultures understanding of mind, body, and soul.

This is an interesting read, recommended for those interested in Jungian Depth Psychology, alternative healing, and for those curious about the growing popularity of psychedelic therapy.

This book looks at myths and the archetypal realms that psychedelic medicine may take one to. It is beautifully written and somewhat trance inducing in and of itself… a useful resource for psychedelic facilitators and a valuable addition to this growing field of study.

This book felt a little disjointed in places, the connections between the long italicised myths and the information about psychedelics didn't always flow well. However, there were some introspective parts and made for an interesting read.

The long italicised myths are hard to read (font wise and length).
The book can feel a bit dense sometimes so that does affect readability.
I did find it interesting overall, especially the tips that directly pertained to the how’s of tripping and even how to facilitate others.
