As interest in psychedelic plant medicines grows in mainstream culture\, critical ethical questions are also surfacing. How can practitioners and facilitators navigate the rich landscape of psychedelic experience with respect and reverence? What does it mean to ethically blend traditional spiritual practices with contemporary therapeutic approaches? What is the role of community in experiencing and integrating sacred plants? Geared toward anyone interested in psychedelic facilitation\, guiding or sitting\, from spiritual practitioners to psychotherapists and clinicians\, sessions will explore topics including the role and responsibilities of facilitators\, trauma and psychedelic healing\, harm reduction and psychedelic facilitation\, psychedelic care and ethics\, the role of ritual and music in psychedelic facilitation\, and fundamental psychology for psychedelic facilitators. This course does not make participants religious leaders\, shamans or facilitators\, but gives tools for them to navigate their context of use. Completing this course and receiving a certificate does not imply that Chacruna vouches for the conduct of participants outside the course nor does it guarantee an ethical and safe approach by institutions in their daily practices.

SUMMARY:Psychedelic Humanities and Knowledge Making
DESCRIPTION:October 29th\, 2025 1:00 PM CST \nREGISTER HERE \nDo you wish you got into this event for free? Become a Chacruna member and receive free or discounted access to all Community Forums\, Courses\, Workshops\, and more! Also get full access to our entire archive of past forum recordings and join our global network of psychedelic professionals and activists to dive deeper into discussion and discovery. \nChacruna is glad to invite you for a conversation exploring the intersections of humanities education and psychedelic therapy. Just as psychedelic-assisted treatments seek to transform consciousness and support healing\, the study of literature\, art\, and culture has long worked to expand imagination\, build empathy\, and help us grapple with social and political realities. This forum will examine how core methods of the humanities – such as discussion\, critical reflection\, and encounters with art and media – overlap with the aims of contemporary psychedelic practice. We’ll ask: How can a deeper grounding in the humanities help psychedelic practitioners better understand the cultural and political consequences of their work? What might a more self-aware\, ethically attuned humanities education look like\, and how could it support the wellbeing of both students and psychedelic communities? Speakers include Ramzi Fawaz\, cultural critic and professor of English at the University of Wisconsin\, Madison; Arielle Saiber\, professor of Italian Studies at Johns Hopkins University; Darieck Scott\, professor of African American Studies at UC Berkeley; Jacob Perlson\, psychiatrist and psychedelic therapist; and Nico Gusac\, Chacruna’s Development and Outreach Support\, and researcher in medical anthropology. Together\, we’ll reflect on how integrating humanities with psychedelic practice can foster more just\, ethical\, and transformative approaches. \n  \n
