Accessing Altered States: Guided Psychedelic-Inspired Breathwork & Live Music Journey

Life Changing altered states have typically been confined to near-death experiences, ingesting psychedelic plant medicines or spontaneous satori moments.

However, we now know enough scientifically about what goes on within our brains to replicate these psychedelic states without the use of psychedelic drugs.

We want to offer you the opportunity to go beyond the mundane and experience an altered state of consciousness first hand, safely, legally and responsibly, using your organic human technology.

The potent combination of guided breathing exercises, incredible live music and the lion's mane mushroom will be used to take you deeper into yourself; to expand your mind, open your heart and reconnect with your true power.

It's these awakening moments that have shifted the evolutionary trajectory of humanity. Now, at this crucial junction, it is time to revitalize this exploration.

The Mushroom

The lion's mane mushroom has been used by the monks of China for thousands of years to optimize their concentration and brain power during meditation.

While perfectly legal and not psychoactive, modern science has shown that this mushroom reliably supercharges brain function.

At the Altered States Experience, it will be used to take this unique combination of breathwork and live music to the next level to create a truly profound experience!


NOTE: This is a drug and alcohol free event.
Your Hosts

Master breathwork instructor Gene Kelly will offer you the brain science and chemical understanding of the processes going on within your mind.

Musical savant Joshua Tree will provide the soundscape that will guide you into the empowered state of the mystic where you will develop a deeper connection to your expanded self.

Together, using guided breath work, live music and the lion's mane medicinal mushroom, you will be invited to open into a psychedelic inner experience!
