Activating stewards of collective liberation with sacred earth medicines and ancestral reconnection.

We engage at the intersection of healing, expanded consciousness, and social change through trainings, community circles, and embodied retreats.

We are more than educators and medicine carriers—we are bridge-builders constructing opportunities for connection between ancient wisdom and contemporary community-care practices. We honor decolonization education, ancestral knowledge, and psychedelic exploration as pillars of healing personal and collective trauma. Whether you are a clinician, a lineage-healer, or a seeker, our offerings are brought forth to support you as you reconnect with ancestral knowledge and safely harness the power of Sacred Earth Medicines for deep personal transformation.

Why we gather:

Coming together around the fire to share wisdom, songs, and prayers is a simple practice that connects all lineages.

Part of our shared liberation requires that we recreate these moments of ritual that bond our communities in order to heal. Join us as we begin to gather in intentional circles around the world.

To be of service to one, is to be of service to all.

PLT Value

Free Monthly Integration Circle:

Our monthly Kindred Circles are inclusive spaces for beings of Black, Brown, and Indigenous descent to be in community, to explore, to be curious and to practice tools that can support their experiences with expanded states of consciousness and entheogenic substances. This is a place where we honor the unknown, make space for the mystery, and allow what needs to be awakened to come alive.
