We are genetically pre-programmed to convert electromagnetic waves into information we understand through our senses. We only use a small portion of the spectrum, and by definition, we miss more than we actually have. The older we get, the more we compare new data with the data already stored in our brains. This is why adults often see things as their brains already know them, making us even more selective about the things we experience. For example, if you buy a car of a certain make and model, you&#039;ll recognize it more and more often. This is because the things we pay attention to will grow in our perception of reality. Thus, our circumstances create our limited reality. These videos provide beautiful examples of illusions caused by conditioning expectations.<br><br><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"grid-md-6 about-grid\"><div class=\"gutentor-single-item-image-box\"><div class=\"gutentor-image-thumb\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"normal-image\" src=\"https:\/\/triptherapie.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/matrix-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Auditory illusions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Will This Trick Your Ears?

This is because the brain is trained to connect the dots that signify something bad, based on random information about the universe. For example, someone who is afraid of snakes is constantly trying to recognize the shape of a snake in random things. In this way, we train our brain to do even more of what it was already doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"350\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/triptherapie.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/happy-sad.avif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3132\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/triptherapie.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/happy-sad.avif 350w, https:\/\/triptherapie.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/happy-sad-150x150.avif 150w, https:\/\/triptherapie.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/happy-sad-300x300.avif 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"positiviteit-verandert-het-bewustzijn-en-de-werkelijkheid\">Positivity changes consciousness and reality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Positive thoughts change our reality. Gratitude is a good starting point for positivity. Occasionally reflecting on the things you&#039;re grateful for changes our perception of reality. The brain is then trained to increasingly recognize the good things in life. Gratitude can therefore be a starting point for reducing depression and anxiety-related symptoms because it focuses on the positive. This works well because the world is what you think it is. Positivity attracts positivity and other people, which reduces loneliness.

The reason psilocybin is so effective at this is due to its hallucinogenic properties, while psilocybin can also induce feelings of contentment, connectedness, and gratitude. During the psychedelic state, many people realize that the conditioning that negatively influences us is completely unnecessary and that things can be different. We observe ourselves from a distance, and with all the information, we can think differently.<br><br><\/p><a class=\"gutentor-button gutentor-single-item-button gutentor-icon-hide\" href=\"https:\/\/triptherapie.nl\/en\/trip-levels-psychedelics\/\"><i class=\"gutentor-button-icon fas fa-book\"><\/i><span>Which red pill?<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"grid-md-6 about-grid\"><div class=\"gutentor-single-item-image-box\"><div class=\"gutentor-image-thumb\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"normal-image\" src=\"https:\/\/triptherapie.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/blue-or-red-pill.avif\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Even more effects of psilocybin<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Psilocybin may &#039;reset&#039; the brain to help manage treatment-resistant depression\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9n3Ha0uA0OI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"de-som-der-delen\">The sum of the parts\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In trip therapy we use psilocybin sessions in the form of a <a href=\"https:\/\/triptherapie.nl\/en\/truffle-ceremony-psilocybin\/\">truffle ceremony<\/a>.

The same goes for exercise, sunlight, and social activity. If you tackle everything at once, the positive effect is greater than, for example, if you only undergo talk therapy.
