Jacob Reid is a writer, health coach, and mental health renegade who utilized natural healing strategies to transmute his own condition of “paranoid schizophrenia” into a psychologically healthy state. In 2018, he transmitted the concept of Sacredphrenia, which states that “schizophrenia” is a spiritual development process we mistake for a brain disease, and began assisting fellow “sacreds” in their integrations. After developing an innovative mental health model and working intimately with sacreds in four different countries, he is now shifting his attention to the psychosis affecting humanity at large.
