What we’re about
A Big Tent Community round All things Cannabis & Psychedelic. Welcome!
------------------
We wish to acknowledge the history of this community which was founded by Dee Dussault around 2009 to support the of Cannabis-Enhanced Yoga, popularly know as Ganja Yoga, which is also the name of Dee's book. She's been a community leader and steward to this movement for many years.
Around 2020, one of her students, Javi K, picked up the baton and continued offering Ganja Yoga around the Bay. Eventually she expanded her work to include Conscious Cannabis Ceremonies offered together with Seba through Green Magic Yoga, in the lineage of Medicinal Mindfulness. They've been integrating practices and stewarding this community through 2024.
As decriminalization and legalization of Cannabis has progressed across the US and globe, so have the communities and practices around this sacred plant medicine. In 2025 the Cannabis Psychedelic Society has founded as a Big Tent Cannabis and Psychedelics Community. Our intention is to make space for learning and sharing around practices such as Ganja Yoga, Cannabis Circles, Dance, movement, therapies, ritual and ceremony around safe and sacred Cannabis use.
Currently we are in the group formation period and inviting seasoned practitioners, community leaders and passionate psychonauts to help us put together a solid Board of Directors. If you feel called to this or perhaps volunteering in other tasks such as: event programming, website design, fundraising, activism, education, outreach, community partnerships, etc.. please send a message to Seba at seba@greenmagicyoga.com
Public Event posting is available at no cost, but must align with our community values and any legal frameworks in your region. Have an event? send it our way!
