Plant Parenthood Integration Circle - January 2023
If the mind is where the psychedelic journey begins, family is where it expands and community is where it takes flight. The Plant Parenthood Integration Circle is a safe space for our community to gather, discuss experiences we’re preparing for or those we’re processing. It will also be a forum to connect with other parents, share insights we’re working into our daily lives and provide gentle accountability for our peers who are doing the same.
This group will be lightly facilitated by Rebecca and Andrew. While the group is open to all, we will be particularly focused on how psychedelics and psychedelic integration relate to parents. Themes for exploration may include:
- How to talk to kids about plant medicines and psychedelics
- Coping with stigma and shame in parent communities
- Children and adolescents use psychedelics
- Including children in our integration process
- Healing intergenerational trauma
- Talking to your parents about psychedelics
