✨ Join us this Friday, June 12, 2026, at 9:00 AM PST for Psychеdеliс Revelations, a live, interactive community conversation where science, healing, lived experience, and conscious dialogue come together.

This week, hosts Dana LJ Harvey and Wendy Perkins Shoef are joined by Gabrielle Bachand and Michael Oliver, co-founders of Kаnnа Garden, to explore one of the most intriguing plant allies gaining attention in the wellness and plant medicine world: Kanna.

Often referred to as “nature’s МDМА,” kаnnа is a psychoactive South African plant that has been used traditionally for centuries and is now attracting growing interest for its potential to support emotional wellbeing, connection, resilience, and nervous system regulation.

In this conversation, we'll explore:

🍃 What kаnnа is and what makes it different from other wellness supplements and plant mеdicinеs
🍃 The traditional roots of kаnnа and its history of use in South Africa
🍃 What happens in the body when someone takes kаnnа and why its effects feel so unique
🍃 Why kаnnа is sometimes called “nature’s МDМА” and what current science tells us about its mechanisms of action
🍃 How Gabrielle and Michael personally incorporate kаnnа into their daily lives and healing practices
🍃 Who kаnnа may be appropriate for and important considerations for responsible use

Hi Flourish Family! After last year’s success, we are back with our beloved offering: Sound Bath at the Farm: Horses, Healing, and Harmony.

I am extremely grateful to be collaborating with Lynn Moseley at River Haven Farm, which she so beautifully owns and runs.

We have talked a lot about the benefits of sound healing, but have you ever heard of equine therapy? It is a powerful healing practice where people spend time with horses in a safe and supportive environment.

For many, especially those who have experienced trauma or tend to feel stuck in their heads, connecting with a horse can create a deep sense of grounding, understanding, and peace… all without needing to say a word.

Now, imagine combining the magic of sound healing with the presence of these wise, gentle animals.

That is how this offering was born. ✨

🐴 Sound Bath at the Farm: Horses, Healing & Harmony
📍 River Haven Farm
🗓 Saturday, June 13th | 7:00 PM

We will rest, release, and reconnect in nature’s embrace, carried by music, held by community, and supported by these gentle giants.

If your soul whispered “yes” while reading this, come join us. I would be honored to have you there. 💫

Join us Friday, May 29, 2026, at 9:00 AM PST for Psychеdеliс Revelations, a live, interactive community conversation where curiosity, healing, embodiment, and conscious dialogue come together. ✨

This week, hosts Dana LJ Harvey and Wendy Perkins Shoef explore a fascinating and increasingly important topic: Micrоdоsing & Neuroplasticity: Best Practices for Lasting Change.

Micrоdоsing is often discussed in terms of dose and schedule—but what about neuroplasticity? What’s actually happening during a micrоdоse, and how might it influence the patterns, habits, and emotional responses we reinforce over time?

In this conversation, we’ll explore:

🍃 What neuroplasticity is and how micrоdоsing may interact with it
🍃 Why micrоdоsing is about more than just “taking a dose”
🍃 What to do while micrоdоsing—and what may work against the process
🍃 Micrоdоsing integration beyond journaling
🍃 How environment, relationships, nervous system regulation, and daily habits influence lasting change
🍃 Somatic practices like breathwork, sound-based experiences, and embodiment work
🍃 Differences between micrоdоsing psilоcуbin and L$D

Hi friends! 🤍 You’re warmly invited to Immersive Sound Bath & Reiki in the Garden, a rare experience I’m offering with JJ Hu next Sunday, May 31st, at the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden.

On this evening, we’ll be gathering for an immersive sound bath + Reiki experience designed to help you slow down, soften, and reconnect with yourself.

The garden will actually be closed to the public, so everyone joining will have private access to wander the pathways before we begin. It’s such a rare feeling to experience this space in stillness and quiet.

Then we’ll gather indoors for a deeply restorative journey with crystal singing bowls, Tibetan bowls, gong, meditation, Reiki, reflection, and intentional rest.

Bring your mat, blanket, pillow, cozy layers… whatever helps you feel comfortable and supported.

We’re genuinely so excited to share this one with you 🤍

This week, hosts Dana LJ Harvey and Wendy Perkins Shoef are joined by Maria Amaru (Maria Aya Pacha), founder of AYA Pacha Cacao, for a rich and heart-centered conversation: Sacred Cacao as Medicine.

Maria’s work bridges chemical science, somatic healing, menstrual therapy, mindfulness studies, shamanic practice, and ancestral plant mеdicinе traditions. Through AYA Pacha Cacao, she works with cacao as a sacred technology of the heart and a pathway for embodied healing, remembrance, and service.

In this conversation, we’ll explore:

🍃 How cacao may support hormonal balance, emotional healing, nervous system regulation, and cyclical living
🍃 Why the sourcing, cultivation, and energetic integrity of cacao matter deeply
🍃 What makes cacao a “Master Plant” within ancestral healing traditions
🍃 The role cacao may play in humanity’s collective awakening and shift in consciousness
🍃 How cacao may be intentionally and safely combined with other sacred plants and mеdicinеs

Sacred cacao has long been used as more than a ceremonial drink or wellness trend. In this conversation, we explore cacao as a living medicine for the heart, nervous system, hormonal balance, embodiment, and collective awakening — and what it truly means to work in relationship with a Master Plant...

Through crystal singing bowls, Tibetan bowls, gong, Reiki, guided reflection, and intentional stillness, this experience is designed to support deep rest, emotional release, and inner balance.

Expect:
✨ Private access to the gardens
✨ Guided meditation and intention setting
✨ Reflective journaling and optional sharing
✨ Immersive sound healing journey
✨ Individual Reiki throughout the session
✨ A deeply restorative atmosphere

Join us Friday, May 15, 2026, at 9:00 AM PST for Psychеdеliс Revelations, a live, interactive community conversation where curiosity, healing, and honest dialogue come together. ✨

This week, hosts Dana LJ Harvey and Wendy Perkins Shoef are joined by Dr. Del Potter — medical anthropologist, psychopharmacology researcher, formulation scientist, and longtime pioneer in psychеdеliс and neuropharmacological research — for a fascinating conversation: Psychеdеliсs, Peptides, and the Future of Therapy.

With more than four decades of work spanning psychеdеliс mеdicinе, ethnobotany, peptide therapeutics, neuroplasticity, and innovative drug delivery systems, Dr. Potter brings a rare and deeply interdisciplinary perspective on where the future of mental health treatment may be heading.

In this conversation, we’ll explore the emerging intersection between psychеdеliсs and bioactive peptides, the neuroscience of healing and neuroplasticity, and whether the therapeutic benefits of psychеdеliсs may one day be separated from the psychеdеliс experience itself.

Together, we’ll explore:

🍃 What bioactive peptides actually are and why researchers are paying attention
🍃 The psychеdеliс “plasticity window” and what happens in the brain after dosing
🍃 The emerging science around BDNF, TrkB receptors, and neuroplasticity
🍃 Why different psychеdеliсs may create different biological healing timelines
🍃 The concept of the “peptidergic shadow” and endogenous peptide systems
🍃 The growing interest in non-hallucinogenic psychеdеliс therapies
🍃 Whether therapeutic benefits can be separated from the psychеdеliс experience
🍃 How oral films, intranasal delivery, and transdermal technologies may increase accessibility in psychеdеliс medicine

Have you been hearing a lot about micrоdоsing lately and quietly wondering in the back of your mind:

“Hmm… maybe that could be something for me?” 👀

Or maybe you’ve already tried micrоdоsing before, or do it here and there, but you’re not really sure:

✨ if it’s working
✨ how it’s supposed to work
✨ or if you’re even doing it “right”

Or maybe you’re simply curious and want to explore micrоdоsing in a safe, intentional, supported way alongside other people who are also exploring it too.

If you fall into any of those categories, my next Micrоdоsing for Transformation group starts Monday.

We’ll spend 8 weeks together in a small, supportive group container exploring mindfulness, intentional micrоdоsing, self-awareness, integration, and transformation.

There are only a couple of spots left, and maybe this is the edge or the invitation you’ve been waiting for ✨
