Monthly, donation based, virtual circle for folks who identify as QTBIPOC (2SLGBTQIA+ and Black, Indigenous, People of Color) to engage in psychedelic integration work.

Integration is a vital component of the entheogenic experience, bridging the ineffable elements of the medicine experience with one’s daily life. In this space, we begin with establishing space agreements, share a brief grounding practice (somatic, visualization and/or guided meditation), go in a round of introductions, and then invite participants to share their experiences in a peer-supported environment and a lightly facilitated container.  

Registration is offered on a donation basis, suggested donation is $7-20.

Facilitators:

Kulkiran Nakai (they/them)

Kulkiran Nakai is a licensed clinical psychologist who is a fat, neurodivergent, Desi-American queer femme that practices therapeutic, spiritual healing work with individuals of marginalized, intersecting identities on Anishinaabe territory in Ypsilanti, Michigan. They have a passion for inner-child and ancestral healing while dismantling injected systems of oppression through the use of psychodramatic group practices and the support of plant-medicines. 

Preston Lopez (he/they)

Preston Lopez is a queer therapist of color residing on the ancestral and unceded land of the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe, also known as Oakland, CA. As an activist, Preston has spent time organizing for environmental justice, sharing in the work of a just transition to a sustainable, equitable society. As a therapist, Preston supports folks in exploring, healing, and liberating themselves from the internalization of oppressive systems as well as supports folks through preparation and integration of intentional psychedelic use. As a poet, he channels the experience of being queer and brown into words and rhythm as a means to connect and resonate with his community. The intentional use of psychedelics has been an integral part of Preston's personal liberation, particularly from the effects of religious trauma, anti-queer discrimination, and the experience of "conversion therapy". He eagerly supports those wanting to heal from their own experiences of marginalization and oppression.
