Description
Join Visionary Artist and XR Developer Jose Montemayor Alba and Clinical Psychologist Dr.Tamara Russell as they dialogue a roadmap for the use of cyberdelics to generate mental wealth.
In a world where the unchecked development and use of technology has been blamed for the rise in mental health problems, can intentional, contextualized and ethical application of cyberdelic technologies be used to generate mental well-being and reap the benefits of the bio-psycho-social-spiritual model? Can the poison be the cure?
This salon-style discussion will share the rationale for the timeliness, indeed urgency, of this work, and suggest how this technologically-mediated approach changes consciousness in beneficial ways from a neurocognitive perspective.
On the cusp of the next psychedelic renaissance, could this non-pharmacological alternative provide a safer route to self-transformation and healing? Are we living the realization of Terence McKenna’s prophecy that “The drugs of the future will be computers. The computers of the future will be drugs?”.
Thoughts, objections, observations and experiences to be shared....

Studies show that at this time of year (often considered the most mentally and emotionally challenging time of year) we need more daylight and outdoor time as well as good human connection time to keep mental and physical stressors from our system.
Wild Winter Wellness contains gatherings, talks and breakthrough physical challenges to transform our physical, mental and emotional quality of life.
