Our January online gathering is a supportive, heart-centered space to explore how experiences with 5-MeO-DMT have impacted your life in meaningful and positive ways.

Together, we’ll gently reflect on shifts in identity and worldview, including moments that may have felt destabilizing, and share practical ways to work with and integrate these changes over time.

Whether you’ve had a recent experience and are seeking clarity, are still integrating an earlier journey, or feel called to share your story with others who understand, you are warmly welcome.

Even if you haven’t had a 5-MeO-DMT experience yourself, you’re invited to listen, learn, and ask questions in a respectful and open environment.

This free gathering is open to anyone drawn to grounding and integrating expanded states of consciousness in a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental community setting.

Facilitators:
Co-hosted by Henry Passot, Co-Founder of Psychedelic Advocacy Network, and Peter Schubert, an end-of-life doula and enthusiastic participant in plant medicine practices.

We’re deeply grateful to welcome Will Duncan for this special talk and discussion as he shares his insight on long retreat and the Buddhist understanding of orienting amidst unstable and disorienting experiences.” Will has a unique gift for making deep spiritual wisdom accessible, practical, and relevant to modern life.

For those who have used psychedelics—or are considering them—you may have experienced moments of ego dissolution, deep interconnectedness, or a sense that reality is far less solid than it once seemed. Buddhist wisdom can offer a powerful framework for understanding and integrating these experiences.

In this conversation, we’ll explore a secular approach to the concept of refuge in Buddhism. We’ll discuss how this teaching can help loosen mental and emotional patterns, bring clarity to mystical or non-ordinary experiences, and support deeper peace, compassion, and understanding in everyday life.

Come with an open heart and mind as we bridge ancient wisdom with modern experience.

Bio:
Will Duncan has taught throughout the world, including Asia, Europe, Eastern Europe, South America, and throughout the United States. He has worked as a hospice chaplain and presently is a lecturer, meditation teacher, consultant, and lavender farmer.

At the age of 14 began a 23-year apprenticeship with his root teacher Murray Rogers, the founder of Jyotiniketan Ashram. Will began his formal Buddhist training in 1987 under John Daido Lori at Zen Mountain Monastery. In 1993, he went on to study in the Tibetan tradition under many beautiful traditional Tibetan lamas.

In 2010, Will completed a formal 7-year training in the open and higher teachings of the Gelugpa lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. Upon completion, he entered a traditional 3-year silent and solitary meditation retreat. Known for his down-to-earth humor and ease, Will teaches by way of inquiry and lively discussion, pushing students to think clearly for themselves and to uncover their own insights.
