How do psychedelics fit into the journey of recovery? Tommy Rosen, a celebrated yoga teacher and addiction recovery expert, tackles this question head-on in the latest episode of 'In The Circle'. With a focus on the integration of psychedelic therapies, Tommy explores the delicate balance between potential benefits and risks.
