Unlike our contemporary society, cannabis and psychedelics were viewed as beneficial and necessary for the wellbeing of the individual and community-at-large.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s5\">Luckily, the laws surrounding medical cannabis and psychedelics are changing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s5\">However, you must wonder why lawmakers and voters are changing their minds about cannabis and psychedelics. For starters, there&#8217;s an immense amount of research that points towards cannabis and psychedelics as <span class=\"s4\">breakthrough<\/span> medicinal treatments for a myriad of mental and physical illnesses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s5\">Thus far, 35 states in the US allow the use of medical marijuana \u2014 and counting. Even more surprising is the recent shift towards the acceptance of psychedelics.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s5\">Psychedelics, such as magic mushrooms and mescaline, have recently gained a foothold in Oregon, Colorado, and Washington, D.C. Most importantly, the recent elections have proved to be a <span class=\"s4\">tipping point<\/span> for the medicinal use of psychedelics in the United States.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s9\"><a name=\"_r4gdqrfrfd0v\"><\/a><strong><span class=\"s8\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">Oregon&#8217;s New Psychedelic Reform<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"s5\">Oregon already made headlines by legalizing both medical marijuana and recreational cannabis. Now, however, Oregon is pushing the envelope with newly passed legislation \u2014 Measure 109.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s5\">Measure 109 is historic because it makes Oregon the first state to <span class=\"s4\">legalize<\/span> psilocybin \u2014 the primary psychedelic compound in magic mushrooms. Although Oregonians cannot walk into a store and buy shrooms, it will be available as a mental health treatment in a supervised setting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s9\"><a name=\"_w82sjlpq08c1\"><\/a><strong><span class=\"s8\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">Washington D.C.&#8217;s Psychedelic Renaissance<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"s5\">Similar to Oregon, Washington D.C. already legalized medical and recreational cannabis. Unlike Oregon, Washington D.C. voted to <span class=\"s4\">decriminalize<\/span> psychedelics through Initiative 81. Initiative 81, also known as the Entheogenic Plants and Fungus Policy Act of 2020, is the first of its kind and encompasses:<\/p>\n<div class=\"s11\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span class=\"s10\">\u25cf <\/span>Magic mushrooms<\/div>\n<div class=\"s12\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span class=\"s10\">\u25cf <\/span>DMT<\/div>\n<div class=\"s12\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span class=\"s10\">\u25cf <\/span>Ibogaine<\/div>\n<div class=\"s13\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span class=\"s10\">\u25cf <\/span>Mescaline<\/div>\n<p class=\"s5\">Initiative 81 does not mean psychedelics are legal. It does mean, however, that individuals caught with small quantities will not face prosecution. Overall, Initiative 81 is a significant step forward for the psychedelic renaissance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s5\">As more states ponder the benefits of medicinal psychedelics and marijuana, it&#8217;s only a matter of time until these compounds are regulated and available to those in need of effective medical treatments outside the scope of conventional medicine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s7\"><a

chronic pain to depression, cannabis and psychedelics are effective at promoting a sense of wellness. For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5367557\/\"><span class=\"s14\">research<\/span><\/a> shows that psilocybin <span class=\"s4\">drastically<\/span> reduces depression and anxiety in terminally-ill cancer patients.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s5\">Ayahuasca, the entheogenic drink made from the Amazon\u2019s <span class=\"s4\">caapi<\/span> vine, contains a substantial amount of DMT and ibogaine. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4773875\/\"><span class=\"s14\">Research<\/span><\/a> shows that DMT can increase antiviral and anti-tumor cells. Additionally, DMT is known to protect neurons and cells from degradation, leading researchers to believe that DMT can fight against neurological diseases.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s5\">Mescaline, the psychedelic compound found in <span class=\"s4\">peyote<\/span>, is known to provide an abundance of therapeutic effects in small doses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s7\"><a name=\"_c30b2pmanbcx\"><\/a><span class=\"s6\"><span class=\"bumpedFont15\">\u00a0<strong>Traditional Medicine Coming Full-Circle<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"s5\">From the first humans who explored the benefits of cannabis and psychedelics to our current era, the fact remains \u2014 the plants and fungi that produce cannabis and psychedelics have <span class=\"s4\">never<\/span>changed. Instead, it is <span class=\"s4\">we<\/span> who have changed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s5\">From prohibition to a booming industry, cannabis and psychedelics have <span class=\"s4\">always<\/span> offered a helping hand.
