Judaism is Psychedelic with Madison Margolin (A Four-Part Jewish Psychedelic Series)
Judaism is Psychedelic: Exploring Judaism as a Container + Catalyst for Expanded Consciousness will explore how Judaism can serve as a framework for preparing, navigating, and integrating psychedelic experiences. We’ll learn about utilizing rituals, holidays, and spiritual practices as grounding tools, and incorporating Jewish wisdom from blessings and breathwork to ritual and reflection to expanded consciousness. Madison will be incorporating teachings from luminaries like Rebbe Nachman and the Baal Shem Tov to find meaning and direction in altered states
Course Outline:
Session 1- Introduction - defining key terms; Judaism is the set and setting; it is the framework for navigating altered states through the calendar, chagim, and shabbos
Session 2- Preparation - including brachos, practices to incorporate before your journey; questions of mystical relationship, ego death, breathwork, movement, dance
Session 3- Navigation - how do you use Jewish ritual to ground the journey (candle lighting, tikun haklali, tefillin, ktoret, niggunim, 3-part Baal Shem Tov process for getting through a bad trip)
Session 4- integration - what Jewish wisdom do we have to hold on to after in order to make sense of the experience; what do we "do" with it (what is the action that takes place after the being)
Each session will feature elements of text study, group discussion, and guidance on practical application.
Sessions will take place at 9:00 am PT | 12:00 pm ET | 7:00pm Israel. Sessions are 90 minutes each.
Cost: $120 Early Bird- $100 until December 3
