71-year-old Charley Wininger’s “Listening to Ecstasy, the Transformational Power of MDMA” is a personal testimonial, discussing an infrequently amplified message: “psychedelics aren’t just for the young and folly.” “Listening to Ecstasy” aims to demystify the previously vilified misconceptions that have clouded productive dialogue around this otherwise misunderstood underground party drug – known as MDMA. Charley Wininger discusses pertinent topics regarding the safe and responsible use of MDMA for personal, social, and even sexual and relationship benefits across the entire adult lifespan.
MDMA has remained a taboo subject but has been thrust into the mainstream lexicon due to recent clinical trials that have indicated beneficial therapeutic uses. Who better to destigmatize and unpack the wonders of this “love drug” (Wininger calls MDMA “super glue for relationships”) than an accredited expert with 50 years of first-hand experience with psychedelics?
In his book, Charley reveals how MDMA has revitalized his marriage, both erotically and emotionally, and describes how pleasure, fun, and joy can be profound bonding and transformative experiences. Revealing MDMA’s versatility in bringing lasting renewal, enjoyment, and inspiration to one’s life, Wininger shows that recognizing the transformative power of happiness-inducing experiences is a tool for both healing and aging with grace.

With MDMA research trials currently in their third and final phase, some early results show tremendous promise for beneficial therapeutic uses of MDMA.

His book also discusses how MDMA can help healthy people feel more connected to one another.
