In a suburb nestled outside of Denver, Colorado, sits a mental health clinic practicing psychedelic psychotherapy."I wanted to live my life without the veil of fear in front of everything that I did, and up until coming here, that's how I was living," Aimeé Kahl said.Kahl started attending psychotherapy sessions to relieve herself from living in a constant state of anxiety. She says she lived in fear that her husband might take his own life after his time in the military."Talk therapy can be helpful and useful... but only to a point. to truly heal, you have to move through it," Aimeé said.Psychedelic psychotherapy is a means of help for people living with anxiety, depression or PTSD.Instead of covering up symptoms of mental health, Clinical Director Jen Fiser says the idea is for patients to face those symptoms and learn from them.In Colorado, cannabis and prescribed ketamine are the legal drugs used in psychedelic psychotherapy to access the subconscious.Fiser says the subconscious is where we often store trauma from our childhood, and we may not be able to overcome issues related to that trauma unless it's brought forward."We have responses that feel like little kids even though we're adults. That's because those responses are actually held in us as children, but when we have access to them through the subconscious, they can get new information," Fiser said.New information like how strong we are as humans, what defenses we have, how healthy relationships work, and assurances that we aren't in danger anymore."The symptoms go away on their own, because they're no longer necessary," Fiser said."It's been totally life-changing for me coming here," Aimeé said.Aimeé says she's able to reach the complex depths of her brain by tuning into her physical body as a guide.In this type of therapy, it's known as ‘a wave’, and patients can experience multiple waves in one sitting."You have like a cold, coldness that comes over you. Usually that signifies some kind of trauma is bubbling to the surface. Then there's a surge of emotion, and that for me is usually followed by remembering where maybe I had felt that emotion before and was not able to process it. And then after that happens, it's like this ‘aha’ moment and then you get warm," Aimeé said.Aimeé says what she felt in the first session is completely different from the last. But it's not over from there."It's not like a magic thing. You have to work through still what that was for you. You have to create new patterns of how you live without that control or without those things getting in the way," Aimeé said.Though she claims the process is transformational, Aimee says she's thankful she has Fiser as her therapist to move through that space with her. Especially when dealing with an altered state of consciousness."If it's done in a therapeutic and a safe setting, it's actually something beneficial, but if it's done in a way that [the body] doesn't know what to do with that kind of emerging emotion or emerging memory, then people can get very scared and it can be destabilizing," Fiser said.Medical experts say potential side effects of psychedelics include dizziness, blurred vision, weakness and tremors while the drugs are active. They can also raise blood pressure. As Fiser mentioned, the main concern is not being able to handle distorted perceptions of time and space.Someone using a psychedelic should not drive for at least 24 hours."We require clients to get a ride home," Fiser said.Most importantly, recent research shows cannabis and ketamine aren't chemically addictive. That's one reason why the mental health practice is becoming more common.Currently, more than half of states across the country offer psychedelic therapy. Fiser believes that number will continue to grow, and there is even a possibility more hallucinogenic drugs like psilocybin, which comes from mushrooms, could be added to the mix."Oregon has an initiative where they're trying to allow psilocybin to be used therapeutically, and if that were to happen, we would be very interested in opening a clinic in Oregon because we would love to be able to use that," Fiser said.When it comes down to it, Aimeé says if psychedelic therapy is saving lives like hers, she thinks it's proven its worth."We need more research. We need all of that, absolutely. But the fact is that these things are helping people... they are. And so of course it needs to be available everywhere," Aimeé said.*************************************If you'd like to contact the journalist for this story, please email elizabeth.ruiz@scripps.com 4606

In a speech from the Senate floor Thursday, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) slammed the House's adoption of articles of impeachment as a "predetermined end" to a "partisan crusade," but did not give any specifics about the impending trial to be held in the Senate.McConnell's statement comes hours after the House of Representatives voted to impeach President Donald Trump in a vote that was largely along party lines. All but two Democrats voted in favor of the articles; no Republicans voted in favor.McConnell warned the impeachment risked "deeply damaging" institutions in the United States and claimed it could open the door for more partisan impeachments in the future."If the Senate blesses this historically low bar (of impeachment), we will invite the impeachment of every future president," McConnell said.Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-New York), responded shortly thereafter, claiming McConnell failed to offer a defense for President Trump's actions in McConnell's 30-minute speech.Schumer also slammed Trump's decision to not participate in impeachment proceedings, and said Democrats would welcome the Trump administration to offer their own defense."Why is (McConnell) so afraid of relevant witnesses and documents?" Scumer said. "...can none of the president's men come defend him under oath?"McConnell also claimed that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was "afraid" to send the articles of impeachment over to the Senate for a trial. Pelosi said Wednesday night that the House would delay sending the articles to the Senate until she could get assurances that the Senate would hold a fair trial.Last week, McConnell told news outlets that he is openly conferring with White House counsel on defenses for Trump. The comments sparked a call among Democrat lawmakers for McConnell to recuse himself during the Senate trial. 1866

In 2017, Uber unveiled a tip feature on its app to allow customers to leave their driver a tip. It turns out many customers do not leave a tip. According to a study conducted by Bharat Chandar, Uri Gneezy, John A. List, and Ian Muira with the University of Chicago, only about 16% of rides end with a tip. The study also found that 60% of Uber customers never tip, while 1% always leave a tip. List's study included 40 million trips in the cities of Chicago, Boston, San Francisco, Salt Lake City, Asheville, North Carolina, and Bloomington, Indiana.List's study found the average of those who do tip is .11, about 26% of their fare. The survey found that customers were more likely to tip between 3 to 5 a.m., as well as around 6 p.m. on Fridays; that female drivers, especially younger females, were more likely to earn tips; and that 5-star drivers were twice as likely to earn a tip as a 4.75-star driver.So should you tip? That is up to you, but know that according to the 992

Jo Cameron, a 71-year-old Scottish woman, has never needed to take painkillers after seeing the dentist and can eat spicy Scotch bonnet chilis without any discomfort.She thought little of it until she sought treatment for a hip problem at the age of 65. Doctors were astonished to find that she experienced no pain despite severe degeneration in her joint. A year later, she said she felt no pain after undergoing what's typically a very painful operation on her hand for osteoarthritis.Her doctors decided to analyze whether her lack of pain sensitivity was due to genetics and found it was caused by a mutation in a previously unidentified gene."I had no idea until a few years ago that there was anything that unusual about how little pain I feel. I just thought it was normal," Cameron said in a news release.In 828
