Conscious Cannabis Circles are a ceremonial group encounter designed for exploring and communing with the plant spirit ally Cannabis Sativa. In these monthly gatherings we come together as a community to heal, grow, transform and celebrate. The event consists of a 4.5 hour workshop where you will be guided by trained and experienced facilitators on how to navigate the psychedelic realms this plant opens us up to. We provide a safe and sacred setting for this unfolding. Participants have described this work as “deeply heart-opening” and “one of the most psychedelic experiences I’ve had”. Many compare this experience to those with other plant medicines like mushrooms and ayahuasca. This ceremony format was created by Daniel McQueen and Medicinal Mindfulness in 2012 and is now being taught and extended across the united states in cities where cannabis is legal.
What the event looks like
We begin each journey by creating sacred space together as a community. We then share some guidelines in how to approach this experience in a mindful and intentional way. We imbibe as a group and then guide you through a body scan relaxation. After this we invite you to lie down and journey with our curated evocative music set. We are there with you for the entire journey. We then bring participants back to the room and do some integration and grounding accompanied by light snacks (if you have allergies or special needs please reach out to us before the ceremony). We make sure everybody is doing well before you go home.
