About us
Welcome to the Southwest Psychedelic Society
We are Kari and Andrea, co-hosts of the Southwest Psychedelic Society, and we’re deeply honored to welcome you into this sacred community. This is a space devoted to connection, education, and conscious exploration within the ever-evolving world of psychedelics—a gathering place for like-minded souls to learn, grow, and remember together.
Through virtual and in-person events, community gatherings, and immersive retreats, we create opportunities to celebrate the beauty of life, each other, and the greater mysteries of existence. With ceremony, shared intention, and embodied presence, we seek to elevate our lived experience and deepen our understanding of self, spirit, and healing.
At the heart of our work is a reverence for the transformative potential of entheogens. We hold sacred the process of integration—weaving the insights and healing from psychedelic experiences into the fabric of daily life. Our vision is to nurture a supportive, inclusive environment where curiosity is welcomed, healing is honored, and community thrives.
Whether you're just beginning your journey with psychedelics or have been walking this path for many years, we’re grateful to walk beside you.
