Plant Teachers: A Psychedelic Seder for Shvat (Digital Download)
As a farewell to the month of Shvat, join us for a "psychedelic seder" with Jewish space holders, practitioners, wisdom-keepers, activists and artists who know something about a particular plant teacher and can share what it means to them and what it has taught them personally, what it has taught others, and how best to keep it sacred and safe. As an organization dedicated to supporting Jewish psychedelic experiences, we're inspired by the ritual of the Tu Bishvat seder, and our deep gratitude for the plants and fungi we consider to be teachers of experiencing layers of our own soul – and by extension, the living soul of the universe.
Speakers include Alan Levin, Maxi Cohen, Jay Waxenberg, and Miriam Volat. Learn more about each speaker below. This is event is sponsored by Plant Medicine Law Group.
