"Personal Use" Community Workshop Series
Event Details:
June 14, 2023 | Family Matters in Psychedelic Medicine
Guest Speaker - Dr. Adele Lafrance
While significant attention has been paid to the intersection of mind-body-spirit in the context of medicine work, the impact of medicine work on relationships throughout the healing process has received insufficient attention. This workshop will introduce the ethical, brain-based and psychological rationales for attention paid to family matters in psychedelic medicine. Tools and techniques to maximize positive outcomes and minimize distress within the system will also be shared. Clinicians and non-clinicians are welcome. Register here.
August 9, 2023 | Preparation and Integration for your Psiloycbin Journey
Guest Speakers - Dori Lewis, MA, LPC-S and Dylan Rivard, LPC
Learn the essential knowledge and skills for your self-guided mushroom journey. Explore what matters in terms of mindset, your own sense of readiness to build a relationship with psilocybin, the physical and energetic space for your journey, and useful tips to meet the mushroom with openness. We will also offer simple ways to think about integration and how you might engage that process in order to maximize the potential of your self-guided work with mushrooms to make positive impacts in your life.
Proceeds from this workshop are shared with The Trevor Project. Register here.
September 13, 2023 | Micro Dosing Education and Access
Guest Speakers - Reilly Capps and Travis Tyler Fluck
Personal use of mushrooms is now legal in Colorado. Microdosing is an easy and low-risk way for people to take their first steps. Microdosing is taking 1/10th or 1/20th of a typical dose of mushrooms. Some research dismisses microdosing as a placebo effect. Yet many users report a range of benefits—from reduction in anxiety to better focus to a connection to nature. Who can benefit? Who should steer clear? We'll give folks competency with microdosing, give resources about integration, and we'll provide resources to actually get the mushrooms and make the microdoses. We believe humans are tribal. Community and nature are our birthright. Register here.
