Introducing Our Kits Meetups
Every Wednesday we gather as a community at The Stretch Space to connect and expand together. For these events, we invite local facilitators to join us in offering unique workshops with a different theme each week. Through these events, we seek to offer transformation, connection and peak experiences all while providing a container to connect with other like-minded people in the community.
These events are open to the public and are discounted/free for our members.
About This Week’s Workshop: Psychedelic Practitioner Circle
For this Weekly Kits Meetup, we are calling on all the facilitators in our community to come together to connect and share best practices with one another. This will be an intentionally crafted social and learning experience for those currently working in the psychedelic ecosystem as either aboveground or underground practitioners. If you are not currently a psychedelic practitioner, we kindly ask that you pass on this event.
We will spend the first half of the session rotating through the group with a dyad format, creating opportunities for connection with one another through thoughtful prompts and questions.
For the second half of the evening, we will come together in a group to discuss some of the themes that emerged and navigate towards conversation around best practices with this important work. To help guide these discussions, we will be joined by special guest Mark Haden who will be present to help co-facilitate this evening alongside Michael Oliver.
