kinhood conscious cannabis circle
with Chase Bishov, M.A. AMFT
a season for liberation
march 31, 6-10PM - oakland, ca
join kinhood for an opportunity to commune with cannabis in an
intentional, held and healing way in a men’s group setting.
Cannabis has been used intentionally as a psychedelic medicine for thousands of years among many peoples for the healing of trauma, the gaining of personal insight and wisdom, and communing with spirits/ancestors/the Divine, among many other things.
This ceremony will focus on the themes of expansion and liberation, inviting us to look deeper into our individual capacity for growth and the contractions that we hold which may be limiting us. This ceremony will be a chance to connect with our aspirations and intentions for the coming season as we transition out of winter and go into the growth and new life of spring.
what this event looks like
The ceremony will consist of an introduction to the practice/safety guidelines/agreements, ritualistic invocation/prayer, opening check-in, imbibing of the medicine (always optional), lying down around the altar, music and breath cues guiding the ceremony, and a facilitated closing of the ceremony. Light dinner and drinks to follow.
Please note that you will be asked to complete an intake form before being allowed to participate in this event. The intake form is designed to support facilitators in providing the safest possible environment and experience for you.
The suggested price for this event is $108 dollars. This will include facilitation, materials, dinner following the circle, and a follow up integration circle 2 weeks later. Reduced rates of $72 and $36 are available for anyone who needs.
