Welcome to The Third Wave
At The Third Wave we provide well-researched, high-quality information specific to the classic psychedelics – and how they can be used to help people like you live more vibrant lives.

“A lot of the people who are leading the movement now are 60 or 70 years old, based in academia or research,” Mr. Austin said. “But to catalyze change, you have to speak to people, get to them on an emotional level.”
“I’m trying to find answers to the questions that people are asking where the clinical research is lacking. The problem is the research is so expensive and the stuff that does come out won’t really provide a lot of the answers people are looking for.”
“Psychedelics help to accelerate a maturation process,” says Austin, “where we can see that we’re not operating within silos. Instead, we’re operating as part of a larger collective and part of a larger community.”
