BERKELEY, Calif. — Helping someone taking magic mushrooms have a “good trip” can mean keeping them hydrated or playing Grateful Dead records to safely enjoy the ride.

The UC Berkeley Center for the Science of Psychedelics has started training doctors, nurses, social workers, psychologists and chaplains how to safely and effectively facilitate mind-bending hallucinogenic experiences to help heal and care for patients in a new certificate program.
