Special Guest Marely will speak on the topic of

“ How Psychedelic Experiences Vary”:

The same way we cannot step into the same river twice- we cannot have the same psychedelic experience even if it’s with the same medicine and dosage. How interesting is it that the same psychedelic plant or substance can be administered to multiple people at the same room within the same environment and no experience is identical. And how some individuals can take a large dose of medicine, and not feel a shift while someone with a microdose can find themselves in an intense experience.

These varying manifestations of consciousness meeting psychedelic substances can bring up questions and contemplations that we will discuss under a eastern philosophical lense, personal reflections, and Marely’s 10 year experience working with medicine for her own healing, and serving others.

Marely, a devoted student of plant medicine and eastern spiritual arts, curates ceremonies, retreats, and trainings around deepening our connection to the elements, self awareness, and vitality.

She began working with plants as a child, growing up in a family of herbalists and healers - and continued her studies in college with eastern philosophy and art. Her teachers Sri Dharma Mittra & Dr. Rose Erin Vaughan + several trainings and meditation retreats over the last 12 years have deepened her knowledge on yoga, traditional Chinese medicine, and Ayurveda.

She is currently teaching the core essence of these philosophies and medicines, and also serves and treats people in group and 1-1 with plant and earth medicines.
