Psychedelics or spoken about through indigenous communities as plant medicines, is at the core of the origin of transpersonal Psychology.  Psychiatrist Stanislov Grof was doing studies in the 1970’s on how people were accessing a psyche domain when on ancient forms of medication.  In Psychology today’s article “Why Psychedelics Are Therapy’s Next Frontier” stated “People describe ego-dissolution as a diminished sense of self and an increase in the feeling of being at one with the universe, an experience felt as enriching.”  This class will explore the healing, expanding and evolving effects of different psychoactive plants in nature that have been used for millennia.
