Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Women's Psychedelic Book ClubDrop Thesis, Bend, OR
The current book is Merlin Stone’s classic When God Was a Woman. We will discuss a chapter at a time over a series of gatherings.
How did the shift from matriarchy to patriarchy come about? In When God Was a Woman, Merlin Stone traces the ancient Goddess traditions, where women once held property, traded, and inherited through their mothers. She documents how myths and religions were rewritten to cast the Goddess as depraved and reveals how these transformations shaped modern gender roles.
We’ll discuss the book and and how psychedelics help us reconnect with the divine feminine. This is a space for women to reflect, share, and integrate whether you’ve read the whole book or just a chapter.
We support ordering a copy from Dudley's Book Shop in Bend.

Pine and Prism offers 3-hour sessions that pair the healing potential of psilocybin with Reiki and nervous system-informed care.

A Pine & Prism Reiki Master joins you on the journey — offering energetic support not from the sidelines, but from within the experience for a shared space of reflection and presence.

- Psychedelic Book ClubDrop Thesis, Bend, OR
🥁 This month's book/topic to discuss is...Braiding Sweetgrass, available at Dudley's Book Shop in Bend.
Robin Wall Kimmerer’s Braiding Sweetgrass blends Indigenous wisdom with Western science, presenting a worldview where plants, animals, water, rocks, and other elements of nature are recognized as beings with spirit, agency, and personhood. We’ll explore how this perspective resonates with psychedelic experiences and integration, community care, and re-imagining our relationship with nature and Earth.
In the Psychedelic Book Club we explore topics related to psychedelics, consciousness, metaphysics, the paranormal and more. Each month we choose a book and/or topic of interest to dive deep into.This is a welcoming space for sharing ideas, fostering community, integrating psychedelic experiences, and forming new friendships.
