What if getting older could open the door to something new?Join Portland Psychedelic Society for a lively, thoughtful—and yes, fun—conversation about psychedelics, aging, and the many ways we might reimagine what it means to grow older.
Older adults are increasingly becoming part of the psychedelic conversation. So what’s behind that growing curiosity? What might psychedelic experiences have to offer as we navigate life’s later chapters? And could psychedelics change the way we think about aging itself?
We’ve gathered three fascinating voices for the conversation:
Abbie Rosner is a baby boomer and writer focused on how older adults are exploring the drugs of our youth in ways that enhance how we age. Her new book, Psychedelics and the Counterculture of Aging (Park Street Press) is the first to document the emerging trend of older adults using psychedelics for individual and collective transformation. Abbie also writes on Substack: The ELDEREVOLUTION Newsletter on Psychedelics in Older Life. Her work has been featured in the MAPS Newsletter, Forbes, Next Avenue, Double Blind and other publications.
Phyllis Moses, Dedicated to assisting individuals to discover their own resources for growth and healing
Steve Rosonke MD, is the founder of Rainfall Medicine, a ketamine center for consciousness and healing. He has also trained with indigenous healers throughout the globe.
Come hear their perspectives, ask questions, and explore a topic that is moving well beyond the margins and into the conversation about aging, health, meaning, and possibility.
