Review for Multidisciplinary Association For Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), San Jose, CA, USA
My favorite things about maps is that they are pioneers in virtually unchartered territory. Well psychedelic territory has been chartered by those that have experienced psychedelics, but what maps does is distills the very best that the experience has to offer and harvest it's scientific benefits. Many experimental users of psychedelics have understood that their is much potential , psychologically, socailly, spiritually etc from these states of being, and MAPS takes a scientific approach to understanding what these benefits are and how they can be obtained.
