RSVP ✨ 4/9 at NeueHouse NYC + SF Weekend & Ecosystem News
Dear friends and colleagues,
In Western culture, healing is for the individual, with a trend to include the community since 2020. This Earth Month, how can we start to expand it to include the natural world? On April 9, join the evolution of healing with mental health pioneers, climate activists, land stewards, and facilitators convened by Psychedelics for Climate Action (PSYCA) [RSVP].
A two-part evening, from inspiring speakers to collaborative sessions, fostering your inspiration, co-creation, and calls to action. We’ll explore how regeneration is not only ecological, but also deeply personal—a path to healing ourselves, restoring balance within and around us, and renewing our connection to Earth. When we serve the planet, we serve the collective consciousness.
As global temperatures near a tipping point—and terms like “climate crisis,” “climate science,” and “clean energy” are struck from government documents—collective stewardship has never been more vital.

🌟 We are hosting a PSYCA SF Gathering on March 28, 4:30pm-6pm! RSVP to join us and feel free to invite friends! Appropriately, we will be at Pops Bar—"rumor has it that Pops ran the Clubhouse, during Prohibition where alcohol was served but the exact date can’t be confirmed. However we do have confirmation of him as a bootlegger."
