Exciting update!
We are blessed and honored to be able to make a very special introduction to our Hudson Valley community as we welcome the Yawanawa-Brazilian sisters carrying the Forca Feminina known as Shavora.
We are extending our monthly HV Psychedelic Society meeting this Thursday, October 23rd to include them.
Join us for the entire event which begins at 7pm to hear Tara Samadhi speak on Bufo or if you can't make it then come at 9 to hear our esteemed guests share their sacred songs and answer questions about their culture.
Shavorã – Força Feminina is a rare and powerful concert led by three Yawanawá women — Hukena, Yawa Vana, and Naiweni — who carry the sacred songs and stories of their people.
Daughters of the Amazon, these women are guardians of tradition and pioneers of a new time. Through their music, they share the force of the feminine in its many expressions: strength and tenderness, courage and beauty, tradition and transformation.
Through their songs, the sisters carry forward the living memory of their ancestors, affirming the role of women as leaders in culture, spirituality, and community.
This is a free event. Donations are welcome to support our Nest & these very special guests as they travel far away from home and family to share with us.
We appreciate you registering in advance to save time at the door
Please bring a healthy snack to share.
Join the Hudson Valley Psychedelic Society, Forest Haven, and The N.E.S.T. for a monthly community gathering.
This event is designed to foster open dialogue, share experiences & build community support with the fascinating world of psychedelics.
In October, we welcome Tara Samadhi , who will be sharing on the topic: Bufo Alvarius and the Pure Molecule (5-MeO-DMT), Gateway to the Infinite. This offering is both devotional and informative, a bridge between science, spirit, and the deep mystery of awakening.
We will explore:
• What distinguishes Bufo Alvarius from the Pure Molecule
• How to prepare body, mind, and soul for ceremony
• The role of prayer, intention, and presence
• What to expect in the medicine space
• Integration as the art of weaving insights into daily life
• How to discern the right guide and ceremonial container
• Common fears, safety considerations, and contraindications
The final portion of the talk will open into Q&A, an invitation to bring your questions and reflections.
