“Where Is My Mind?” — Public Discussion Explores Psychedelics and the Frontiers of Consciousness Featured
Written by JorgeOn March 25, 2025, the Coliseu do Porto Ageas hosted “Where Is My Mind? Psychedelics at the Frontier of Personal, Social, and Environmental Consciousness,” a public conversation examining how psychedelics influence perception, collective well-being, and our relationship with the planet.
The discussion brought together João Costa Ribeiro (psychiatrist), Maria Carmo Carvalho (psychologist and Boom Festival coordinator), and Pedro Teixeira (researcher at the University of Lisbon), under the moderation of Susana Peralta (economist and columnist).
The event formed part of the Mantras 2025 cultural program and aimed to bridge scientific, therapeutic, and ecological perspectives on the expanding field of psychedelic research and practice. Participants reflected on the social and ethical implications of consciousness-expanding experiences, as well as their potential role in promoting individual and collective transformation.
