What we’re about
Are you looking for a place to discuss your experiences with entheogens, psychedelics, and plant medicines? Are you searching for a community to share your experiences with, and explore insights with? Are you looking for folks who understand how plants and can guide, change, and transform your life path?
This is not a place to find drugs, but a circle of support for the purpose of integration and education. In integration, we do group and individual work to discuss and explore our experiences with non-ordinary states of consciousness, in order to grow and heal.
This is a safe and inclusive space.
