About the Event
Recreational Tripping: Therapeutic Play
Do you like tripping for fun? Are you interested in trying psychedelics but aren’t looking for a deep dive experience? Do you find value in playing with your friends under the influence of psychedelics?
Here at Altered States Integration - “Recreational is not a dirty word!” Rather, we prefer to reclaim the word ‘recreational’ instead of eliminating the term because of its sometimes negative connotation. It’s essential to recognize that fun and recreation have an important role in facilitating healing and growth.
In this month's themed integration circle, we will take a fun approach to processing psychedelic experiences. Let’s talk about all the ways that healing can be part of a playful and fun view on life. Sometimes, it's a vacation from ordinary life we need, while for others, it's the social connection that is the medicine. We would love to hear about all your playful, healing, psychedelic stories. Check out this blog to learn more about how recreational psychedelics can be healing.
*Due to the sensitive nature of integration circles, NO RECORDING is available.
**Please try to be on time as you may not be able to get in after our icebreaker because we are busy or we are waiting until a sensetive share is over.
Integration Circle Rules
After our ICE-BREAKER, we will open up the circle 1st to people who would like to integrate a specific experience. Shares are given up to 5 min. We will then ask if the person would like to receive reflections. If desired, we will open the floor for 2-3 reflections. At that point we will then move to the next share.
If no one feels called to share a personal experience we will open the circle to questions and general conversations. Please limit shared times to allow responses.
We are also going to ask everyone to:
- Speak from personal perspective
- No Advice Giving. Use 'I' statements.
- Bring an open mind
- Confidentiality “what happens in Zoom, stays in Zoom”
- No Recording of ANY kind
- Silence all electronic devices
- Avoid distractive behavior: eating, multitasking, driving
- Mute mic when not talking
- avoid crosstalk
- Participation! We request that everyone participates on some level. That can look like: just turning on your camera, or participating in the check in verbally or via the chat. This is for the comfort of the group and everyone who is showing up and sharing vulnerably.
- No Solicitation of Substances or Promotion of Retreats (see disclaimer)
