Session Two: Psychedelics for Palliative, End of Life & Hospice Care

About the Session:
At the intersection of neuroscience, spirituality, and compassion lies a powerful and emerging tool in palliative care: psychedelics. Ketamine, Psilocybin, LSD, and MDMA are being studied—and praised—for their ability to reduce end-of-life pain, anxiety, ease existential distress, and deepen emotional and spiritual connection.
Presented by Elisabeth & Sherri Mack, nurse educators and integrative care advocates, this session will explore the science, history, and healing potential of psychedelics in palliative and hospice care. We’ll discuss how these powerful plant and compound allies may support terminal patients in achieving emotional resolution, spiritual insight, and a peaceful transition.
You’ll Learn:
- An overview on the therapeutic use of psychedelics
- An overview on the many types of psychedelics and their mechanism of action
- What landmark clinical studies at Johns Hopkins, NYU, and Imperial College London reveal about psilocybin’s impact on terminal patients
- How guided psychedelic experiences can foster connection, acceptance, and presence at the end of life
- The current ethical and legal landscape for psychedelic therapy
- Where research, advocacy, and access are headed next
This isn’t about tripping—it’s about processing emotion around the death and dying experience and transforming how we meet the final stages of life.
