The Renaissance of Relationship
Jeronimo Mazarrasa in conversation with Jeremy Narby
What if we looked at psychedelics not in terms of molecules but in terms of relationships? The key to collective healing might lie not in a psychedelic renaissance but in a renaissance of relationships - with ourselves, with each other, with our environment, and with Life itself. What kind of relations do we envision? Can modern psychedelic medicine learn any lessons from ceremonial plant work? In this public talk we explore the vision of a future where psychoactive plant practices are a valued and integrated part of our culture.
