The field of psychedelics is growing rapidly and finding ever greater acceptance. Thousands of the people making up this burgeoning movement are mothers, fathers, and caregivers to children.
Despite this, the needs, particularities, and contributions of this group are rarely discussed, and the topic of psychedelic parenthood is often seen as taboo.
This is disheartening considering the many ways psychedelic healing supports parents and caregivers in dealing with the challenging realities associated with child rearing, such as post-partum depression and parental stress.
Talking about this neglected topic is now more important than ever if we want to truly ensure the field is diverse, inclusive, and safe for everyone.
It is also a path through which we may learn from the indigenous forefathers and mothers of psychedelic medicine practices for whom familial and communal concerns have always been central, and whose rituals have always made space for children and families, and honoured pre- and post-natal processes.
Indigenous wisdom and our own experiences show us that educating children in a psychedelic community is also a chance to build a better, more inclusive society.
What We Do/Offer
We bring together parents from diverse settings and cultures across psychedelic medicine spaces to connect, share knowledge and experience, and communicate and collaborate through our community forum and events.

We publish articles sharing ancestral wisdom, anthropological and scientific research, and psychedelic parenthood experiences.
We advocate for parents and caregivers across society and within the psychedelic field, giving voice to our varied perspectives and enabling our presence in psychedelic conferences and community spaces.
