In this episode, Aubrey Marcus speaks with Dr. David Spiegel, an expert in hypnosis, to explore the power of the mind and its therapeutic applications. Dr. Spiegel explains hypnosis as a natural mental state that can help tap into the subconscious to shift perception and behavior. They also discuss the effects of psilocybin and other psychedelics on the brain, emphasizing their ability to unlock new levels of consciousness and aid in therapy. Dr. Spiegel shares how clinical hypnosis has evolved, particularly in treating pain, trauma, and anxiety, and even highlights the fascinating practice of hypnosurgery, where patients undergo surgery without anesthesia using hypnosis.
Aubrey gets personally involved when he volunteers to be hypnotized, giving listeners a direct look at the process. They also talk about the potential risks of hypnosis when misused, before wrapping up with a look at future innovations like the Reverie app, which makes hypnosis more accessible for self-healing.
This conversation blends science, personal experience, and practical insights, appealing to Aubrey’s audience who are always seeking ways to expand their understanding of the mind and consciousness.
