Alcohol, Drug, & Smoke-free Zone
We do not teach, promote, or sell any products and/or services that advise others in the use of any kind of mind-altering substances ie. hallucinogens (psychedelics): psilocybin (mushrooms), cannabis, ayahuasca, PCP, LSD, mescaline… etc. This list also includes but is not limited to artificial light flickering and Holotropic breathing techniques.
With great respect for the many cultures of our planet and their respective spiritual practices, it is in our professional experience and opinion that the use of the products mentioned above are not at any time necessary for one to receive a “spiritual” experience, awakening, spiritual growth, or development.
Spiritual development is not something that can be “fast tracked” or speeded up. This is an inner journey and is a connection to your soul-self. Only you have the key to unlock your truth; the authentic self. Your life experiences have gotten you this far and no one else can do the work for you and should never claim that they are able to do so.
