Episode The Larger World of Altered State Thinking (podcast)
I’ve edited and republished a piece titled “The Larger World of Altered State Thinking,” subtitled “how altered states, dreams, hypnosis, and psychedelics can expand creativity, deepen self-understanding, and reshape how we think.” This version is written to be a faster read. You can find it on psychedelic.support: https://psychedelic.support/resources/larger-world-altered-states-thinking/.
The piece explores our two common, conscious modes of rational and emotional thought. It emphasizes we are less familiar and less adept in using our associative mode of thought. Associative thought is the stream of unpremeditated thoughts and feelings that jostle for attention in the backs of our minds. Associative thought is going on more often than our conscious thought but it’s subconscious. Associations are the origins of the words we speak to ourselves.
