The Missing Medicine: Why the Psychedelic Revolution Needs Plant Relationship
The psychedelic movement has built frameworks around set, setting, and integration. But there's a missing foundation: an embodied relationship with plants that teaches attunement, presence, and the capacity to listen to subtle intelligence.
In this talk, clinical herbalist April introduces the concept of herbal immersion—working deeply with one plant at a time—and explains why this ancient practice provides the grounding that psychedelic work requires. She'll explore how plants work with us on subtle energetic levels, how this differs from supplementation or symptom management, and why practitioners need this foundation both for themselves and their clients.
This is an introduction to a deeper conversation. You'll leave with questions, curiosity, and an invitation to explore what a real relationship with plants could mean for your work and your life.
And then the other one is:
Tea Ceremony
Come enjoy a meditative tea ceremony led by April Rameé. There are limited spots, the ceremony is held in silence, and the tea contains caffeine.
