Psychonautics

The field of study which relates to spending time exploring the universe right inside one's own head. Usually with drugs/yoga/meditation. These people are on a quest to discover the self, and usually can be considered "realists".

Psychonautics (from the Ancient Greek ψυχή psychē 'soul, spirit, mind' and ναύτης naútēs 'sailor, navigator')1 refers both to a methodology for describing and explaining the subjective effects of altered states of consciousness, including those induced by meditation or mind-altering substances, and to a research cabal in which the researcher voluntarily immerses themselves into an altered mental state in order to explore the accompanying experiences.
