Psychedelic Yoga

In this workshop, you'll learn several types of pranayama (yogic breathing).
Different forms of pranayama cultivate different aspects of consciousness, so a toolkit of pranayama is a boon for the psychedelic explorer.

The yoga of breath has been my single most important ally on psychedelic healing journeys.

I will address two questions, for each pranayama I teach:

-- How can this pranayama support various types of psychedelic work?
-- How can this pranayama be used, on its own without a substance, to cultivate psychedelic states?

I will give advice for practicing ahead of a session, and some important cautions. We'll have a chance to practice together!

If you have had important experiences with breathwork related to psychedelic experience, please share your stories and insights! The workshop will end with Q&A and a discussion.

Learn LUCID DREAMING -- for Healing and Spiritual Exploration!

• Methods from Dream Yoga, Dream Science, and Psychedelic Yoga

Lucid Dreaming is a wonderful way to cultivate creative flow, wellbeing, and spiritual exploration.

Many folks are intrigued by the possibility of becoming aware in their dreams!

When you become aware within the dream state -- "This is a dream!" -- the possibilities are endless. Dramatic, rapid progress can be made in terms of healing and spiritual growth.

There are ancient yogic practices, such as Tibetan Dream Yoga, that allow us to become more aware in our dreams and waking lives. These practices resonate with intentional psychedelic work. The techniques of Dream Yoga also benefit the psychedelic journeyer on their trips!

This workshop will focus on:
-- How to use techniques from dream science and Dream Yoga to become a lucid dreamer, and how to extract deep benefits from your lucid dreams!
-- How to apply the practices of lucid dreaming (whether or not you attain lucid dreams) to your psychedelic journeys!

No experience is necessary, only curiosity and openness!

Share your experiences!

This is the first Psychedelic Yoga meet and greet. It's a chance not only to relate your most exciting, humbling, confusing, mystical, magical or mundane experiences with psychedelics, but also to learn from others. This kind of wisdom, from genuine sharing, is priceless.

There will be an introduction where I'll provide some ground rules and optional prompts and then (depending on attendance) there will be a series of randomly assigned breakout rooms for more intimate conversations.

Bring a sense of openness and adventure. I hope to see you there!

IMPORTANT NOTE:
I will send the Zoom link via a Meetup message (email) for this event, the day before. If you RSVP, make sure you are signed up (you can find it in the settings) to receive emails from Meetup.
