Intro To Transformational Journeying (Brooklyn Psychedelic Society)

Are you new to the world of psychedelics or looking to brush up on best practices for transformational journeying? Or are you looking to build community with fellow psychonauts and the psychedelic curious?

In this crash course, facilitator Patrick Doerksen will be our guide to cut through the noise that surrounds these powerful substances and get right into it: how to use psychedelics to support an ongoing journey into greater self-awareness, balance, creativity, and health. Through a live presentation, interactive exercises, and Q&A, this class offers a safe and supportive environment to learn about consciousness expansion. 

● Clarify your motivations, hopes and fears for exploring this path

● Explore what distinguishes intentional psychedelic journeywork from other kinds of use

● Learn how to navigate challenging experiences

● Question preconceptions about what transformational journeying looks like

● Talk frankly about sourcing, dosing, testing, finding guides, and psychological and behavior risks
