Mark your calendar Summer has been hot and
sweet and, in my opinion, way too short. As I look toward cooler weather, I crave more structure and opportunities to learn new skills. Here are some ideas for you. Somatic Psychedelic Integration Meetup at Weaverville Yoga, 3 Florida Ave., Weaverville, NC Join us on Monday, Sept 4 from 7:30 to 9 pm for an in-person Meetup group. We call it Somatic Psychedelic Integration because we believe the best way to integrate new ideas and insights happens when we include the body. Our theme for Sept. 4 is The Role of Music in Psychedelic Experiences. Countless studies showcase music's capacity to broadly engage various neural pathways, triggering plasticity and changes in the nervous system. Music touches into the deep recesses of the mind, enabling access to suppressed memories, unresolved traumas, and latent emotions–just like psychedelics.

Eddie Eddie leads a meditation class every Tuesday morning at Asheville Community Yoga from 10:45 to 11:30 am.

Psilocybin Mushroom Group Retreat in Weaverville, NC Eddie and I, along with two other facilitators will host our third group retreat on Saturday, December 2 in Weaverville, NC. This can be a powerful
way to safely engage with a macro dose of psilocybin, while supported by a community of like-minded individuals, at an affordable price. We expect this to fill up. Reply to this email if you are interested in more details.
Alcohol Misuse Disorder is hard to treat Psilocybin could be a promising new treatment A new study found that psilocybin, the psychedelic compound in magic mushrooms, could be a promising treatment for alcohol addiction. Did you know? Alcohol is more lethal than many other commonly used substances. All types of alcohol, including wine, beer and liquor, increase cancer risk. For some cancers, such as breast and esophageal, the risk starts increasing with less than one drink per day. Overall, the greater the alcohol consumption, the greater the cancer
risk. Eddie and I have mentored several clients who experienced a complete removal of their desire for alcohol and one for methamphetamines, after participating in only one therapeutically guided macro-dose psilocybin journey. This is astounding, extremely hopeful and critical for those who want to free themselves of addictive behavior and make major positive changes in their lives.
Have you heard of Cacao? Engaging with chocolate as a ritual has direct positive impact on our individual well-being as well as our global ecosystem. Cacao is where chocolate gets its start. Cacao powder, chips, and other food products that are explicitly labeled
“cacao” are made directly from the beans of the cacao/cocoa plant. Cacao ceremonies are becoming more popular, because they are spaces for people to connect with each other in new ways, and they are an opportunity to reconnect with
ancient parts of ourselves that remember the simple power of gathering together in community. We are in a time of emergence. The energy of this time is asking us to make space for inspiration that will lead to new ways of perceiving ourselves and the world.
In that expanded perception, we can take effective action and move forward in cooperation with others. GATHERING TOGETHER TO DRINK CACAO CAN CREATE HEALING, CONNECTION AND INSPIRATION.
The brand of cacao I love to drink is Ora. Ora Cacao sets the gold standard with artisanal crafted cacao discs that invite you deeper into relation with cacao. Boost your mood, elevate with gentle energy,
live with gratitude, and set clear intentions for your life. I've chatted with the company, asked questions and received quick and generous responses. Use this discount code at checkout. You will save 10% on your Ora
