Summary
Early last year, Australian researchers travelled to a two-day psychedelics retreat in the Netherlands to ask attendees if they would like to take part in a study.
Many said they'd give it a go. They consumed the psilocybin (found in magic mushrooms) they'd been planning to take, and then, hours later, as the effects were waning, they put on VR headsets.
Now they were immersed in a soothing outdoor environment hung with stars like giant fireflies.
