About the event
Psychedelic Professionals Meetup Groups are in Boulder and Denver! Let's keep Colorado on the leading edge of psychedelic medicine work by coming together in community to learn, share, and grow. Each Psychedelic Professionals Meetup Group starts with an informative topic relevant to research, practice, policy, or activism around psychedelic medicines, followed by open discussion and an opportunity to connect with like-minded others.
Our community is based on the values of open-source/open-access knowledge, authentic empowerment, right relationship with medicines and drugs, and showing up for the people and causes important to our lives.
The BOULDER group will meet on the last Sunday of each month, 5-6:30pm, including:
Feb: ketamine assisted therapy
March: the future of MDMA
April: psychedelic guidework
May: plant medicines
June: summer fun at Betasso Preserve
July: Micro dosing
August: professionalizing and credentialing
September: Spirituality and Psychedelics
October: Psychedelics and the Conscious Dying Movement
Our topic for our October gathering is: Psychedelics and the Conscious Dying Movement. Explore some of the ways to comfort the departing and bereaved using transcendent experiences that enhance serenity in facing new possibilities.
