✨ This Month: Understanding Psychedelics: The Journey Continues — Part Two

Are you new to psychedelics, or simply curious to learn more? This is the meeting for you.

This session goes deeper. Building on Part One, we'll explore what actually happens in a psychedelic experience — from personal healing and ego death to mystical states and entity contact — and then get practical: safety protocols, contraindications, substance testing, and how to choose or vet a sitter or retreat. We'll also cover microdosing protocols, the ethics of touch and consent in ceremonial settings, how to find and grow your own medicines, and what integration really requires after the journey ends. Whether you're newly curious or already walking this path, this is an evidence-informed, judgment-free conversation for adults who want to navigate this territory wisely.

No prior knowledge is required — just curiosity and an open mind.

A Few Important Notes
The MoCo Psychedelic Society is a community space for education, connection, and advocacy — not a venue for sourcing or sales.
All information shared at this event is for educational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice or encourage the use of any illegal substance.

A note on legality: Most psychedelic substances are currently classified as Schedule I controlled substances by the DEA. Their use outside of clinical trial settings or states where they are becoming legal remains illegal in the United States. Ketamine is an exception — it is legal when administered by a licensed medical professional.
