Swimming in the Sacred: Wisdom From the Psychedelic Underground

Broadcast on May 10, 2023
With Rachel Harris, PhD
Hosted by Joe Tafur, MD

Rachel Harris, PhD, will report on interviews with 15 women elders who have been guiding underground journeys for 20 to 30 years (or more). The interviews were personal and extensive, exploring themes of presence, commitment to self-healing, apprenticeship, medicines as an ongoing process, relationship with medicines, clearing energy, and self-responsibility — rather than how-to instructions.

In this session, you’ll discover:

  • A sacred container for use of entheogens throughout the entire life span
  • Elders often worked on their own healing first by having mentors or apprenticing, extending their learning process to over 6-7 years
  • There's a different skill set for therapists and sitters, and we're now blending these roles
The views expressed are specific to the author/speaker and may vary from the perspectives of The Shift Network's participants, staff, or other speakers.
