What do we do?
We create events to engage members with each other; host speakers, hold workshops, and explore nature. Events we host broaden our members’ understanding of what is possible whilst retaining the importance of safe practices and wellbeing. We incorporate a practice of play and encourage social engagement, creativity, curiosity, and neuroplasticity - in the spirit of psychedelics.
'Synergy Sessions' Regular casual community meet-up: at these gatherings, members feel free to unwind, ask questions or share experiences. Topics may be brought forward as a lead for us to talk about.
Special guest/collaborative events: we host talks, hold workshops, explore nature. In the past we've collaborated with various researches, artists, musicians, healers. Past events listed below.
