Welcome
The
Psychedelic Society is here to provide information around the latest news,
research, and current events related to the study of psychedelics as mode of
healing, recovery, and psychotherapy.
We aim to
help build a community that can connect like-minded individuals, provide
education to those seeking answers, and to further establish grounds for
sharing resources for people professionally involved or interested in becoming
involved.
Our focus is
around exploring knowledge related to psychedelic compounds, expanded states of
consciousness as well as natural and alternative therapies, practices and
medicines to enhance the mind, body, and spirit.
About Us
We believe
consuming Psychedelics is a personal, valid choice that many South Africans
make everyday, who should be allowed access to information relating to the safe
and effective use of these powerful substances without the fear of
stigmatization or punishment. We hope this will provide a platform for a
growing conversation around psychedelics and expanding consciousness within
South Africa, and lay grounds for related talks, fun meetups, screenings,
workshops and events where we can collectively explore the works of past
luminaries, radical new ideas, alternative therapies, ancient knowledge systems
and everything in between!
This society
is not a pro-drug organization and while we advocate for decriminalization of
Psychedelics, we do not promote illegal activity. Rather this is a society that
aims to educate about a fascinating class of chemicals and plants and the
extended multidisciplinary body of knowledge surrounding them. This includes
but is not limited to psychology, chemistry, ethnobotany, philosophy,
shamanism, spirituality, neuroscience, law, medicine, pharmacology, history,
politics, alternative and holistic health, music and art.
We hope
through education we may help to reduce the possibility of negative experiences
among those who have an inclination to explore such compounds as well as help
those who have already explored various altered states find means of
integrating their experiences.
what we do
Helping everybody find the others. Inspired by similar organizations around the world, we wanted to bridge the gap between our deep inner experiences and the outer world.
Not ceremonies, but spaces where we can all come and see eachother’s faces
Keep people up to date on the latest happenings around the psychedelic world. Research, articles, media. Basically any major waves
We want to play our part in the legalization of these compounds
