Novelty enhancement

From PsychonautWiki
Jump to: navigation, search

Novelty enhancement can be described as feelings of fascination, importance and awe attributed to specific parts or the entirety of one's external environment. It can be considered as a defining feature of many hallucinogenic experiences and results in a new-found child-like sense of wonder which forces those who are experiencing it to acknowledge, consider and appreciate the things around them in a level of detail and intensity which remains unparalleled by experiences throughout normal sober living. This gives the overwhelming impression that everything around oneself is profound, interesting, important and worthy of reverence-- be it nature, aspects of nature, life, the universe or even common events and household objects.
