Join us for an evening of shared experiences as our speakers discuss how psychedelic experiences helped them navigate the complex journey of grief. Loss transforms us, and while grief never truly leaves, our speakers will share how their psychedelic experiences helped them find meaning and connection in the aftermath of profound loss.
Our panelists will kick off the discussion before opening it up:
Shanti O’Connor is a grief tender who studied under Sobonfu Somé. She has been professionally working with the liminal space of grief through group processes, individual counseling and co-facilitating yearly grief ceremonies. She is dedicated to creating sacred spaces for individual and collective transformation and healing.
Dianna Waller’s transformative journey through grief and healing followed the loss of her husband to suicide. By exploring the power of entheogens and alternative healing modalities, she reclaimed her life. Through her work as a writer, she shares her experiences with those seeking a pathway forward.
Dr. Emma Andre (more to come)
Howard Lipp and Ena Vie created The Integration Institute of Psychedelics & Consciousness (TIIPC) which offers online courses on integration, consciousness, healing and compassion, as well as the Psychedelic Integration Coach Certification Program.
This gathering explores how psychedelics can support us as we face one of life’s most challenging experiences. Our speakers will share candidly about their journeys, acknowledging that while grief remains a constant companion, psychedelic experiences offered new ways to carry it.
This evening is for anyone interested in understanding how psychedelics can support the grieving process, whether you’re personally experiencing loss or supporting others who are grieving.
