What weβre about
Hello to all the psychedelic Family we have in this Ayahuasca & Healing Plants group.πππ Please read the following as we are changing the name and focus of this group a little bit.
Lawrence and I are the moderators for the Ashevile Psychedelic Preparation and Integration Meetup and now this group will be under the same umbrella. The new name for us here will be "Asheville Cannabis, Entheogens and Healing". We will cover some of the same topics as the original Ayahuasca group but with an emphasis on Cannabis. The world of cannabis is vast and this group can help folks understand the many and varied ways of using this amazing plant...from healing on many levels to recreational uses as well.
Cannabis has historically had a stigma in our society and we are working on correcting any misinformation about it and elevating this plant to a much higher level, including using it as a psychedelic medicine. When we refer to Cannabis we are referring to the legal version(THCa), just to avoid any confusion.
For this group, we will still have an emphasis on psychedelics, in general, using Cannabis as a cheap and accessible psychedelic as well and a varied approach on the topic of healing using other medicinal plants. We would like to have guest speakers and even meet at Cannabis businesses around town. We hope this group can be very educational and help with understanding this new and complex world of Cannabis, psychedelics(entheogens) and how they can help us heal.
Thank you so much for being here and for showing up for yourself and for the community we have been building here for all of us to be able to support each other like this in these times we are living. If you have any thoughts or comments for us feel free to post them as replies here on this thread or to contact us directly. We are all in this TOGETHER! πππ
Always Grateful,

"Admittedly, I was a bit apprehensive if this was going to be a psychedelic experience; but this has totally changed my view. Prior to this event, my relationship with cannabis was recreational, like most. But the set, setting and ceremony for this circle created a VERY incredible experience. If you are looking to have a new relationship with this medicine, and a very different experience, this circle is for you." - Brian
"I really enjoyed the Conscious Cannabis Event. The guidance of the facilitators and the sound journey was quite powerful.
I valued the space that was created for the event with some light ceremonial aspects which helped focus the intention for the experience.
Having only worked with cannabis recreationally years ago, I was surprised by how powerful of an experience I had and it opened my eyes and heart to a new and more conscious way for me to work with this medicine in the future.
I would highly recommend this experience for someone looking to dive deeper into themselves with a safe and intentional space to do so."
