Psychedelics are often associated with disconnecting from reality, but a recent neuroimaging study found that psilocybin can actually make our brain activity more attuned to the world around us.

As I understand the effects from previous papers I've read, it has an immediate change to neuroplasticity which allows you to be present for a time after dosing. So I thought this went without saying. But, glad for any codification that might help relieve anhedonia, depression or even PTSD in some cases (though Ketamine seems to still have better results for PTSD).
