Join Arielle Brown for a conversation about the
intersection between psychedelics and sexuality. She’ll offer insight into the
psychology of intimacy and the longing for increasingly deep and meaningful
connections. We’ll talk about what arises when we begin to own and take
responsibility for aspects of ourselves that often stay hidden in the shadows
of our psyche.
Many of us are seeking ways and modalities for accessing
deeper levels of consciousness within ourselves. As we move forward on our
paths of awakening, we naturally feel the pull to find like-minded people to
travel with. We seek out teachers and communities who can not only guide us on
our path, but can also become part of the greater sandbox in which we play.
These communities, life all communities, are not perfect.
Power gets misused, boundaries get crosses, and people get hurt. Even when
people act with intention and care, mistakes can be made.
As we gain increasing levels of mastery with our own
power and energy, we realize that consent and boundaries penetrate deeper than
just the verbal and physical level. How we engage with people on subtle,
energetic levels, can cause just as much, if not more, harm than more obvious
actions.
People have tired of the long term and widespread abuses
of power that are coming to light. There is an outcry for leaders to take have
greater consciousness and responsibility for their impact when engaging with
people who rely on their care.
Two areas we can see this important awareness arising is
in the field of conscious sexuality, and in the field of psychedelics.
Psychedelic communities across the globe all have their
own stories of sexual misconduct, of people being manipulated and violated by
shamans, teachers, mentors, people that were supposed to be trustworthy. More
and more, we are coming to realize that simply because someone may have had an
‘enlightening’ experience, does not mean they possess empathy, or even good
moral character. We’re called to find an inner intimacy, to trust our own
boundaries, and our own intuition.
