Frontier Science
Welcome to The Castalia Foundation. We are the world's only independent laboratory for psychedelic research. We publish many popular psychedelic books including MDMA Solo. We were established in 1963 by Timothy Leary, Rosemary Woodruff and friends.
LSD Research
Are you ready to take LSD? Our free book, LSD Zen, invites you to use psychedelics within the traditions of ancient Japanese legend. This is a guide to every aspect of working with LSD for self-improvement; learning; healing and biocomputer-programming.
Empathogen Studies
Sadly, most of us living on Earth today have been subjected to severe psychological programming. Anti Ultra is a guide to dismantling systems of manipulation, and deciphering the occult power systems that seek to control us.
Psychedelic Review
First published by The Castalia Foundation in 1963, Psychedelic Review is the world's most widely-read psychedelic magazine. Through it, we seek to unite the fields of science, philosophy, and personal-experience in relation to all psychedelic medicines.
Established in 1963
We are the longest-running and most prestigious psychedelic research group in the world. Our books are published in multiple languages and have been read by over a million people worldwide. Click here to learn more about our founders.

The Castalia Foundation’s MDMA protocol is designed to empower individuals to self-heal; without the intervention of an 'authority'. Only by entering the territory of the wounded psyche alone can a trauma survivor fully reverse the damage that was once done.

LSD is the world’s most discrete and powerful tool for self- exploration. This concise guide represents an attempt to transmit to you an accurate and stunning impression of the capabilities of this remarkable medicine to transform yourself and your community.

Mind-control is the manipulation of the thought-processes of another human being, or group of humans, for the purpose of gaining power. This includes everything from ritual-abuse to ‘child-rearing’ techniques, ‘school’, the ‘news’ media, and advertising.


Psychedelics can be used to induce heightened neuro-plasticity in adults and accelerate the aquistion of new skills. Whether it's language-learning; drawing; or negotiation; learn how to harness the power of psychedelics for self-improvement and invention.

Psychedelics have been used for thousands of years by humans, it is only in our odd chapter of history that power systems have deprived us of a nutrient as essential as water. This book guides artists; engineers; and mathematicians, on their way to a partnership with LSD.

In this book, witness Frieda Haze's self-healing journey as she uses psychedelics and drawing to free herself from immeasurable trauma. This inspiring book is a complete record of all of Frieda's drawings and thoughts as she self-healed with psychedelic assistance.
