THREE STEPS

01

Leave the body

Virtual reality, combined with sensory illusions, can create a strong identification with a virtual avatar and trigger a profound out-of-body experience.

02

Shift the Self

Psychedelics enable sensory inputs to form new unexpected realities and open up the rigid self-model.

03

Anchor and Repeat

VR can shape what happens next. Letting you float, making your new self colourful and radiant. Anchors can be designed so that the same states can be reached without the drug

For everybody

For patients. We begin with depression, among the conditions least helped by current treatments, and broaden from there to others rooted in a disturbed self.


For everyone. We envision self-shifting states open to anyone. Loosening everyday cravings and dopamine loops safely and repeatably, building resilience and insight. And eventually changing the way we look at life and death.
