Mental health and emotional wellbeing doesn't happen only in the mind — or even only in the nervous system. We're an interconnected web of body systems, so it's inevitable that many different systems will influence our mental health.
In this workshop, we'll explore the body systems that affect mental well-being, and ways we can work with the transformative power of medicinal mushrooms and herbs to support emotional health and wellbeing.
Some of the topics we'll explore:
- The latest research on psilocybin mushrooms in depression, anxiety, and PTSD
- Can mushrooms affect mental health without a psychedelic or mind-altering experience?
- The relationship between digestion, metabolism, stress hormones, and mood or mental health
- Effective approaches for combining herbs and mushrooms
- Tips and key points for making your own mushroom extracts
