This gathering is designed for individuals who are new and curious or have had transformative experiences with psychedelics and are seeking guidance, support, and connection as they navigate the psychedelic process. Whether you've recently embarked on a psychedelic journey or have been exploring these realms for some time, our circle offers a space for reflection, healing, and growth.

During our time together, we'll engage in meaningful discussions, share personal insights and challenges, and explore various practices to help incorporate the wisdom gained from our journeys into our daily lives. Our circle will be facilitated by experienced guides who are committed to creating a safe and inclusive space for all participants.
Key topics of discussion may include:

• Reflecting on the meaning and significance of psychedelic experiences
• Navigating challenges and insights that arise during journeys and integration
• Cultivating mindfulness, self-awareness, and emotional resilience
• Exploring creative expression, movement, and other integration practices
• Building supportive connections and community
• Psychology, philosophy, and microdosing Q&A

Whether you're seeking guidance on navigating the psychedelic options, integrating profound insights, staying up-to-date with latest psychedelic research and news, or simply connecting with like-minded individuals on a similar journey, our Ventura Psychedelic Integration Circle offers a welcoming space for exploration and healing.
