Description

What if every aspect of your life was suddenly disrupted? You can’t go to your job, you can’t see your friends and family, you can’t go home. For refugees and immigrants, such challenges compound with a lack of access to safe and inclusive healing modalities—including psychedelics. Enter Malek Asfeer, whose dedication to humanitarian causes includes organizing psychedelic retreats for refugees and immigrants, aiming to transform consciousness and promote healing in the Middle East. He reminds us that to truly heal, community support and integration are crucial. So, how do you show up for those in need? Asfeer has some suggestions to help you get started.
