the global health and wellness market size is expected to hit $7.6 trillion by 2030 provides a ripe opportunity for psychedelics to explode into Western wellness culture.

“It’s very similar to extreme sports. If you ask someone that’s cycling for the first time what’s the best environment for them to cycle, they’ll probably tell you a very clean, straight road, no traffic — something manageable.
