“Our world is grappling with epidemics of depression, anxiety, PTSD, and addiction that modern pharmaceutical approaches often fail to adequately address," said David Bronner, Cosmic Engagement Officer (CEO) of Dr. Bronner’s, in a press release. "Psychedelic-assisted therapy is life-saving medicine that the world needs now, especially highly traumatized populations like veterans, first responders and marginalized communities generally."
The Heal Soul! campaign is about mainstreaming the conversation around using psychedelic-assisted therapies in a rational and compassionate way—while dismantling misguided stigmas around the medicines, explained Michael Bronner, President of Dr. Bronner’s.
