About this event
COMMUNITY · LICENSED MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS · EXCLUSIVE LOCATION
This program has been designed to enhance the therapeutic work of those who are already guiding and supporting others in the field of mental, physical, and emotional health. This includes people such as psychologists, counselors, psychiatrists, therapists, doctors, and other professionals.
The pandemic has resulted in exhaustion for so many on the front lines who have dedicated their lives to supporting others. We seek to contribute to the process of emotional growth and holistic wellness, by creating a safe space where each participant can deepen their knowledge of being and experience the expansion of consciousness, leading to a practical encounter with their inner truth.
“If we achieve to understand psychedelics beyond our belief system, the door will open before us. It is a matter of connection.»
Dr. Johnathan Flores
