Join us for an enlightening evening conversation on “Psychedelics Through the Wisdom of the Divine Feminine” with Carla Detchon and Jen Christian at our monthly Psychedelic First Friday in downtown Santa Cruz.
We're honored to have Carla, coach, transformational guide and creator of the Psychedelic Divas Podcast in conversation with Jen Christian a Transpersonal & Somatic Psychotherapist. They'll be sharing with us on how invoking divine feminine energies, we can restore the balance lost to patriarchal dominance. The term "Divas" honors the feminine divine, guiding us to equilibrium. They invite people of all genders to embrace traits like intuition, creativity, compassion, and nurturing to bring balance to ourselves and the world.
"The gift of psychedelics is that they connect us to our personal and shared divinity. They invite a deep remembrance that we are all one." - Carla Detchon
