Kwasi Adusei - Psychedelic Month of Service

Download Kwasi Adusei of the Psychedelic Society of Western New York joins us to talk about the Global Psychedelic Month of Service campaign. This is a wonderful campaign to help encourage members of the psychedelic community to become more involved in their communities. About The Global Psychedelic Month of Service Still hiding in the psychedelic closet? Looking for an opportunity to join the movement? This November, find a need in your community, gather your friends, and participate in the Global Psychedelic Month of Service. In the month of November, the global psychedelic community invites you to take on a need in your community in the name of psychedelics. Psychedelic groups all over the world are joining the cause by giving back. At the core of the psychedelic movement is a mission of social activism. So take part in seeing this mission through by volunteering at your local soup kitchen, food pantry, or doing a community clean up. The integration of a psychedelic experience is as important as the experience itself. Transform the feelings of connectedness induced by the psychedelic experience, into actions of connectedness. How to get involved 1. Find a local service organization 2. Reach out to find volunteer opportunities in the month of November 3. Find psychedelic friends to volunteer with 4. Volunteer and send in pictures and number of hours completed What to join the cause? Email [email protected] with your name and location so we can add you to the list of participating individuals.
