Scenario

When psychedelic spiritual practices divide friend groups

My closest friends and I started doing ayahuasca ceremonies together but one person had a difficult experience that shook their faith in everything and now they're angry at those of us who want to continue exploring. We care about each other but we don't know how to honor both their trauma and our sense that this path is opening something sacred for us.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Powerful medicines can create divergent spiritual experiences that challenge friendship when one person's revelation becomes another's spiritual emergency.
