SUMMARY:Course: Roots of Psychedelic Therapy: Shamanism\, Ritual and Traditional Uses of Sacred Plants
DESCRIPTION:This course will be composed of a series of independent lectures taught by the Chacruna Institute’s team and affiliates. It will lay out the foundation of the use of sacred plants through historical\, cultural\, indigenous\, ‘traditional’ and contemporary lenses. We will explore topics such as shamanism in Amazonia\, peyote use among the Wixárika\, psilocybin use among the Mazatec\, iboga in Africa\, and many other cultural practices amongst other groups. We will discuss and analyze critical social issues such as globalization\, tourism\, cultural appropriation\, commodification\, patents\, reciprocity\, conservation\, legality\, ethics\, sexual abuse\, practitioner’s training and more. The course will create bridges between the worlds of ceremonies and psychedelic therapies. Students will learn how to incorporate this knowledge into their professional practices – either clinical or social science research\, work clients or ceremonial circles – as well as their personal lives. Through multiple perspectives and the rich histories and cultures of psychedelic plant medicines\, students will be able to deepen their understanding of the expanding future of psychedelic plant medicines in ways that are equitable\, safe\, and just\, and ways we can give back to and honor the cultures from which these practices stem. The course will be taught from an anthropological viewpoint that considers different cultures and peoples worthy of respect and considers their own perspective and values.

SUMMARY:Workshop: Ecology\, Spirituality and Psychedelics
DESCRIPTION:Professional spiritual health practitioners hold expertise in psychology\, spirituality\, religion\, metaphysics\, theology\, existential care\, and meaning-making. They represent diverse religious\, spiritual and humanist traditions. Ecologically-based spiritual care affirms a view of spirituality that includes reciprocity\, planetary healing\, adaptation to climate change\, indigenous reciprocity\, and ecological grief. \nAn ecologically-integrated approach to psychedelic therapies includes: \nSupport for climate anxiety and grief.\nEarth-based rituals and ceremonies for life transitions.\nNature-based psychedelic care for PTSD\, end-of-life anxiety\, and other mental health challenges.\nCrisis care for climate change disasters and support for eco-justice initiatives and indigenous communities.\nExploration of ecological identity as a core psychological factor in well-being.\nSpiritual support that emphasizes nature connection.\nStewarding and caring for plants\, animals\, land\, and every aspect of the eco-system as a network of relations rather than resources to be exploited.\nThis workshop is for professional spiritual health practitioners\, eco-chaplains\, psychedelic therapists\, scholars and anyone interested in the intersection of spirituality\, ecological consciousness\, and psychedelic care

SUMMARY:The Collapse of Soul Quest: What Happened?
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, October 2nd\, 2024 from 12:00-1:30pm PST. $10 \nHow did a well-known ayahuasca church\, Soul Quest\, unravel\, and what does it say about the state of the psychedelic movement today? We will discuss the rise and fall of this church\, what the DEA review process revealed\, the dramatic recent developments\, and how the events surrounding it can potentially impact the broader psychedelic movement in the U.S. Where does plant medicine fit in the spiritual landscape moving forward? What lessons can be learned from this story? We will feature personal reflections and expert insights from Ron McNutt\, who is steward of the Litigation and Advocacy Committee of the Psychedelic Bar Association; Mattha Busby\, who is a journalist specializing in drug policy and the history of drugs based in Vancouver\, Canada; and Rob Heffernan\, who and independent researcher in the ayahuasca field and part of the Sacred Plant Alliance’s board\, and Martha J. Hartney\, who is a private practice attorney in Colorado and member of Chacruna’s Council for the Protection of Sacred Plants. This forum will be a space for open conversation on balancing growth with responsibility in the evolving psychedelic ecosystem. Join us for this timely and critical discussion to inform and inspire action!
