SUMMARY:Course: Ayahuasca Healing\, Science and Indigenous Knowledge
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \nPrice $950 \nThis course will be taught by leading experts in the field of ayahuasca research and renowned Indigenous leaders. The goal of the course is to address the current challenges and new perspectives on the use of ayahuasca in a global context\, not only from an academic standpoint but also drawing from Indigenous voices and their experience with ayahuasca. Students will be introduced to current issues on the internationalization of ayahuasca and its impacts. The course will address Amazonian traditional healing modalities; ayahuasca and Western psychotherapy\, the commodification of ayahuasca;​​therapeutic and clinical research; conservation\, environmental legislation and the legal framework of ayahuasca worldwide. This course will also be dedicated to honor the voices and experiences of Brazilian Indigenous leaders\, addressing issues that are most dear to Indigenous communities that consecrate ayahuasca. Our Indigenous professors will explore the dilemmas posed by western civilization\, such as exploitative extractivism\, cultural appropriation\, and the discredit of ancestral knowledge. They will also talk about ayahuasca shamanism and its role for the political\, spiritual and cultural resistance of Indigenous Peoples. This innovative course will bridge the gap between academic and traditional knowledge\, connecting the ceremonial use of sacred plants and psychedelic science. Following Chacruna’s tradition\, this course will unite a community of kindred people to get together and exchange notes around the most complete and up-to-date debates on ayahuasca and its challenges in current times.

SUMMARY:What Does Mindful Consumption of Cannabis Look Like?
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to invite you to Chacruna’s upcoming Community Forum\, which will explore the evolving landscape of cannabis use in today’s society. This discussion will challenge outdated models of cannabis prohibition and treatment\, and instead foster nuanced\, safety-based conversations about mindful and moderate consumption. How can we approach cannabis more like exercise – acknowledging both its benefits and its risks? In what ways has prohibition-driven “all or nothing” thinking prevented realistic dialogues about cannabis use? With a growing array of products and easier access than ever before\, how can American adults find balance and moderation amidst the marketing and normalization of consumption? Furthermore\, how do new product forms like edibles and vape pens\, and the increasing prevalence of multiple daily use\, shape our relationships with cannabis? We will also discuss how traditional substance use treatment models often fall short for cannabis users\, and why new approaches – rooted in harm reduction and the recognition that cannabis can have real benefits – are essential for addressing Cannabis Use Disorder without erasing the positive aspects of cannabis use. Join us as we hear from Amanda Reiman\, a longtime researcher\, educator – holding a PhD in Social Welfare from the University of California\, Berkeley – and founder of Personal Plants\, an educational platform dedicated to cultivating healthy\, balanced relationships with cannabis. Also joining us is Owen Wheeler\, a Master’s student in Psychoactive Pharmaceutical Investigation at UW Madison and Chacruna’s Education Program Intern. Let’s come together to rethink the story of cannabis and uncover paths to mindful\, moderate use.
