Psychedelics & the Whole Self: A Gathering for Womxn

DATE: Saturday, July 25
TIME: 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM PT
LOCATION: In-Person

 

What does it mean to truly know your body? Beyond the data; its cycles, its wisdom, its edges?

Join us at the historic Shulgin Farm for an intimate afternoon gathering at the intersection of women's health, hormones, and psychedelic-informed healing. This is a salon in the truest sense: part education, part conversation, part communion.

Our featured speaker, Stephanie Karzon Abrams — neuropharmacologist and founder of Beyond Consulting and co-creator of GALILEA®, a community and psychedelic-informed method. She is a leading voice in integrative women's health and will open the Salon with a 30-minute mini-course drawing on her groundbreaking framework: a psychedelic-informed, hormone-aware approach to care that honors the full complexity of the female body across every life stage.

For more insight into her work and the GALILEA® framework, Salon creator and host April Pride and Stephanie Karzon Abrams will flow into a candid conversation, followed by an open Q&A and an experiential closing with complimentary tea from Gypsy Catcher. You'll leave with new language for your body, a deeper sense of connection with the women around you, and a few tools to carry into your healing journey.

Space is limited to 50 women. Come as you are — curious, questioning, or quietly ready for something more.

A discussion between Gül Dölen, MD, PhD. and Hamilton Morris about the current state of psychedelic research and the enduring legacy of Sasha and Ann Shulgin. Presented by Shulgin Foundation in collaboration with Students for Sensible Drug Policy (SSDP).

Dr. Gül Dölen is a Professor and the Renee and Bob Parsons Endowed chair in the Department of Psychology, the Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, and the Berkeley Center for the Science of Psychedelics at the University of California, Berkeley. Additionally, Dr. Dölen maintains an adjunct professorship in Neuroscience and Neurology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, where she previously served as an Assistant and Associate Professor. Dr. Dölen earned her M.D., Ph.D. at Brown University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and completed postdoctoral training at Stanford University.

Hamilton Morris is an American journalist, documentarian, and scientific researcher. He is the creator and director of the television series Hamilton's Pharmacopeia, in which he covered the chemistry, history, and cultural impact of various psychoactive drugs, particularly psychedelics. Morris is considered to be among the world's leading psychoactive drug journalists.

Finn McGuinness is SSDPs "Listen to Scientists" Program Assistant and currently works in a psychiatric treatment center for major depressive disorder.

Big Sky

Plant Talk: Sacred Plants & Molecules of the Big Sky

DATE: Sunday, August 23
TIME: 2:00 - 4:00 PM PT
LOCATION: Shulgin Farm

 

Exploring PIHKAL's phenyl-bearing entheogenic plants and molecules, from Huachuma to Nutmeg, Sassafras, MDMA and others.

Meet the Sacred Plants and molecules (as molecular models) of the Big Sky! In this 1.5 hour interactive conversation, meet the living plants, learn about the expansive journeys and diverse traditional and post-post-modern ways of engaging with entheogenic cacti, psychoactive phenethylamines and phenyl-based aromatic spices.

In a wide-ranging, deep-diving talk by Bob Otis, MDiv (Senior Pastor at Sacred Garden Community, founding Chair of Oakland's Decrim Nature movement, Resident Entheobotanist for Opihihale and SFPS), we'll explore traditional "head-removing" Chavin Achuma (Trichocereus spp, Huachuma. Giganton, San Pedro, ...) cactus species, mixtures and brews (Cimora, Chuchuma), nutmeg, sassafras, "bliss balls" and the gently psychoactive phenyl-based spices of the "Big Sky". Learn about "substituted phenethylamines" and how phenylpropenes like safrole are extended into more powerfully psychoactive molecules in the great Shulgin tradition.

Dive deeply into beautiful living sacred plants, enjoy inspiring natural scents and explore molecular models such as mescaline, 2-CB, TMA, MDA, MDMA, LSA and other related sacred plants, molecules and practices. Bring a (legal to grow) plant home with you!
