About the event
The Synchronicity Speaker Series pairs the most important and timely topics in psychedelics with facilitated community dialogue–and dinner!
This second SSS will explore the potential psychedelics carry to enhance intimacy among friends and partners. Can MDMA therapy really save a marriage, as this NYT article asks? Can insights occasioned by psychedelics help us examine prejudices about things like monogamy and polyamory, as this Chacruna article suggests?
We’re honored to be hosting Eva Dillon, Leah O'Donnell, Ehren Ekhause and Jorge Arias as our speakers/guides, with BPS's director of community Patrick Doerksen moderating. Together, we will explore topics such as:
How couples might safely and fruitfully journey together with or without a guide
Creating spaces to see and relate to each outside codependency and attachment
Working with parts that keep us locked in shame about ourselves
