Zendo Principles of Psychedelic Peer Support
Madison Youth Arts Center, 1055 E Mifflin St, Madison, WI, USWe are excited to host a collaboration with the Global Psychedelic Society (GPS) -- a network of Psychedelic Societies, and the Zendo Project — a leader in psychedelic peer support education. Join us for a live training from the Zendo Project and learn how to support others through challenging psychedelic experiences with skill, presence, and care.
The training will begin at 2pm sharp, so please arrive with enough time to get comfortable. We will have chairs and tables and tea, feel free to bring comfy seating, non-intoxicating drinks or snacks, and focus toys!
This workshop will introduce the four Principles of Psychedelic Harm Reduction:
✔️Safe space
✔️Sitting, not guiding
✔️Through, not down
✔️Difficult is not necessarily badWe'll go beyond theory and practice these skills with interactive breakout groups and discussions to help ground these principles in real-world peer support.
The GPS is streaming this workshop exclusively to in-person watch party events hosted by local Psychedelic Societies like ours around the world. They will also be providing us with prompts to support continued learning after the workshop.
Whether you're interested in harm reduction, part of a sitting group, or just want to learn how to support others more effectively, this event is for you. Come learn from the psychedelic harm reduction experts and connect with your local psychedelic community!
Please help us pay for the room rental by donating $5-10 at the event.
