#psychedelics
Learn about catalytic communities and a new funding model to sustain #consciousness stewards and builders. We all know the #mentalhealth and particularly #psychedelic funding model for companies including #research is broken. Once your financial survival needs taken care, can focus on the mission!
It's how I first started thinking about almost 2 years ago and yes, initially, I was thinking of a decentralized community built on the blockchain where giving rather than taking was rewarded where money didn't count as votes - that's still our philosophy. The focus is on #ethics within #capitalism.
Ethical is not binary. Why it's a score 😊. Everyone can continually improve. It's like the B Lab model. Yes, it proves that they scored well but we don't have a provider conflicts of interest. The score is annual. The criteria, scoring, and weighting system gets updated continually w/random audits.
It's time to level up the #ethics of everyone operating in the #psychedelic space. #Ethics does not have to be in conflict with capitalism but only way to ensure that is through the ethics reputation score and certification seal badge for individuals, institutions, organizations in this space.
It is about elevating the most ethical and reputable providers. There are many that are already great, certification just proves it so you have a unique and observable measure of their #ethics and reputation. 🔍✨

This is not a meal, it entrusting your #MIND to someone
Over 26? Ready for an inward therapeutic journey? Scan the QR on a #Ethics Seal badge to confirm your provider’s status before first contact 🚀🛡️.

Each one should have an #ethics reputation score and the certified seal. Ask for it.
The Ethics Certification Seal = independent, nonprofit vetting with zero provider conflict. We are here to ensure that we have a safe and ethical ecosystem so every seeker regardless of where in the world they seek #psychedelic care.

For each provider type: e.g. A #Ketamine Clinic or #facilitator
You are not choosing a restaurant. Before you trust anyone with your mind— #clinic, #facilitator, #retreat or #app, ask one question: “Do you have the "Mind Lumen Ethics Certification Seal?”

We need more #ethical people in the #psychedelic industry both above and underground. It's not just an underground problem. bsky.app/profile/mind...
Pilot program launching soon. DM me if you want to get #ethics certified. Free for a limited number of people/entities during the pilot.

Modeled after B Lab #Bcorp program, just way less expensive and focused on #mentalhealth #psychedelics

FWIW, I don't think the @nytimes.com article was a "hit piece". All humans have their biases. On balance, the article was more objective than yours or psymposia. I think bad actors should absolutely be called out. We focus on observable and measurable #ethics. #Decriminalize with recourse is key ☮️
Also, the dismissal of psymposia investigation seemed disingenuous. I have no conflicts of interest. I don't think MAPS did everything right. I also think your/psymposia attack is not objective. Our focus is seekers who need safe access to these substances with #ethical facilitators - it helped me!
@neselsd.bsky.social - I read your response and watched the video interview. While I am sympathetic to your personal situation, I felt that refusal to provide your funders seemed unethical if you are going to judge MAPS based on their funders. Systemic doesn't make it systematic as you also admit.
I got accepted at this year's @harvard.edu #psychedelic bootcamp. I am looking forward to learn, participate, and contribute to moving the dialog on #policy forward with other leaders in the industry.
Lumara (lumara.life) is rethinking what it means to grow.

Not through frequency using traditional capitalistic metrics of "users", "clients", "patients", "customers", but through longevity and trust per seeker of care.

If one is using traditional digital #software metrics, it is unlikely they are going to be ethical in care. In most tech products, success is measured by DAUs, MAUs, etc. Learn more - www.instagram.com/p/DI4OfCJvscC/
