Psilocybin Entropic Brain Theory & REBUS Model
Explore mushroom research and guides on psilocybin entropic brain theory & rebus model.
The Entropic Brain: Psilocybin, Disorder, and Healing
Psilocybin causes 3x greater neural disruption than methylphenidate. Why that temporary brain disorder may aid recovery — and what the research can't yet prove.
Brain Entropy and Mental Health: Why Flexibility Heals
Brain entropy measures neural flexibility. Low entropy links to depression, OCD, and addiction. Psilocybin restores the flexibility that SSRIs cannot produce.
How Psilocybin Increases Brain Entropy (And Why It Helps)
Psilocybin causes 3x greater brain disruption than methylphenidate. Three direct entropy studies confirm the mechanism behind its antidepressant effects.
REBUS Model: How Psilocybin Relaxes the Brain's Beliefs
REBUS (Relaxed Beliefs Under pSychedelics) proposes psilocybin loosens rigid top-down beliefs. The 2025 REBAS study is the first direct empirical test of this theory.
The Entropic Brain Theory: Robin Carhart-Harris's Framework
Carhart-Harris's 2014 entropic brain theory links brain entropy to mental health. Depression is sub-critical. How the theory evolved into the REBUS model.
