There are moments in life when the soul whispers, “It’s time.”
To surrender.
To remember.
To come home to what’s real.
One such moment met me gently—through sacred mushrooms and the invitation of a mycelial family known as Fungi Academy. What began as a curiosity became a deep and sacred unfolding, guided by their Psychedelic Journeywork Cohort—a 7-week online container of integrity, reverence, and real transformation.
A Living Education Rooted in the Sacred
Fungi Academy isn’t just a school—it’s a global community of visionaries, mycophiles, teachers, and seekers devoted to reconnecting humans with the wisdom of fungi. Their offerings blend ancient entheogenic traditions with the best of modern research and harm reduction practices.
Through the Journeywork course, I entered into a space that honored the mushroom as both sacred ally and wise teacher. The curriculum was practical, grounded, and infused with the spirit of reciprocity. We explored everything from safety and preparation to music, set and setting, integration, and ceremony. But more than that—we were invited to listen, to feel, and to walk with humility.
The Journey Inward: Psychedelic as Soul Work
No substance has ever met me with such loving intensity as psilocybin. This sacred teacher has the capacity to pull back the veil—on trauma, illusion, and separation—and usher us gently (or not so gently) into the truth of who we are.
The course reminded me that true journeywork is less about escape and more about return. Return to presence. To Earth. To body. To the parts of ourselves we’ve abandoned.
During our time together, we weren’t just learning—we were remembering. Through journaling prompts, somatic practices, and community calls, we were asked to engage not just intellectually, but soulfully.
“This uncommon weaving of sacred reverence and grounded knowledge is what makes Fungi Academy shine so uniquely in the world of psychedelic education”.
Mushrooms as Medicine for a World in Crisis
Sacred mushrooms carry a profound intelligence—one that speaks to the deep places in us where words fall short.
I’ve witnessed—and experienced—how they can dissolve layers of trauma, crack open old patterns, awaken creativity, and bring deep clarity and peace. These journeys, when approached with reverence, can feel like soul initiations—powerful rites of passage that help us remember who we are and why we’re here.
They don’t just offer healing—they offer wholeness.
Why I Stand With Fungi Academy
In a time when psychedelic spaces are growing fast—sometimes faster than the wisdom required to steward them—I trust Fungi Academy. Their work is woven with ethics, community care, and deep ecological awareness.
They’re not selling you salvation. They’re inviting you to remember what you already are.
That’s why I’ve chosen to partner with them as an affiliate through Sage Center for Wholeness & Health. Their mission aligns with ours: to heal, to empower, and to awaken the sacred within and around us.
Your Invitation
If you feel the call—whether faint or thunderous—to work with sacred mushrooms in a grounded, intentional, and supported way, I wholeheartedly recommend starting with Fungi Academy’s Psychedelic Journeywork Course.
This course is not just education—it’s initiation.
It’s community.
It’s a portal to healing that ripples outward, from your own heart to the collective.
I leave you with these words from the course:
“The mushroom is the teacher. All shall be well. Relax and let go.”
May your path be blessed, brave, and beautifully your own.
