What the organisers say about their integration circles:

This is a safe, private space to discuss and share on the topic of psychedelics. Confidentiality is protected, it's a quiet venue and a private room. You don't need to speak if you're not comfortable, being there is enough.

Everyone is welcome whether they have experience of psychedelics, or are just at the investigation stage.  We have a different theme each month to keep it interesting. Sometimes its a social evening but with the focus still on psychedelics and I line up some supportive and gentle activities to get to know each other in pairs and small groups. Other times we focus on integration techniques.

Psychedelics & Existential Crises - Navigating Psychedelic Aftershock

What the Psychedelic Society are saying about their upcoming event:

Psychedelics can offer profound, mind-opening experiences, but they can also shake our foundational ground, our sense of reality and sense of self, to its core. In a recent study we explored the experiences of 26 people who faced deep existential distress after a psychedelic journey—confusion about the meaning of life, identity, and their place in the world. These experiences affected their thoughts, emotions, relationships, and their physical well-being.

Join us for an open conversation about navigating the complexities of psychedelic experiences with care, curiosity, and connection.

The Science of Psychedelics with Dr David Luke

What Seed Talks are saying about their event:

The traditional use of psychoactive plants and fungi for spiritual and shamanic rituals has occurred for thousands of years, whereas the Western scientific research of these substances has only been explored in the last 100 years, and prohibition stalled the last 50 years of this.

In this talk you will be introduced to the science of these traditional psychedelics along with their modern counterparts first synthesized in the 20th century. Chris Timmerman will also touch upon the mental health applications for these drugs.

Now that scientific research is resuming, what do psychedelics tell us about the weirder side of human consciousness, and what can be learned from the traditional shamanic practices with these substances? Find this out and more in this enlightening talk…
