Psychedelic Tu Bishvat: Plants as Allies for Inner Transformation (In Person in Marin,. CA)
Celebrate Tu Bishvat, the New Year of the trees, while exploring the connection between the plant world and ourselves, through a psychedelic lens. We’ll explore and honor various (non-psychoactive) plant teachers in a multisensory experience with Shefa and the Osher Marin JCC.
Throughout the evening, we will engage in enlightening discussions, participate in guided meditations, enjoy some light plant based foods and be led through eye opening perspectives on the way that plants can impact our lives and our souls.
Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to deepen your understanding of psychedelic plants and their role in inner transformation and in the Jewish tradition.
This event is for everyone 18+, regardless of your Jewish or psychedelic background. While the focus will be exploring the plant world through a broadly psychedelic lens, to be clear we will not be taking any psychedelics.
Please bring: Special item for altar. It could be a plant, twig from garden, special stone, etc.
