ONLINE 🌱Green Flower Guided Meditation Journey🌱 (Cannabis & Breathwork)

FAQs

• What exactly is a Green Flower Guided Meditation Journey?

  A Green Flower Guided Meditation Journey is a guided inner exploration using cannabis, breathwork, meditation, music and somatic awareness. You'll be gently guided through the experience from the comfort of your own home, with opportunities to connect more deeply with your body, emotions, intuition and inner world.

• Do I have to use cannabis to participate?

  No. Cannabis is not required to participate. You can receive many of the benefits of the experience through guided meditation, breathwork and the mindfulness journey without consuming cannabis.

• What happens during the 3 hour experience?

  We begin by creating a grounded and intentional container and exploring mindfulness and preparation practices. We'll then move into intention-setting, breathwork and the guided Green Flower Meditation journey, accompanied by a carefully curated music experience and body-based meditation. At the end, you'll have the opportunity to return gently, integrate your experience, and, if you'd like, share with the group.

• What is breathwork like?

  Breathwork is used as a tool to deepen your awareness and help you connect with your body and the present moment. Breathwork has been shown to help the body relax, return to balance and even release calming signals (including endocannabinoids - cannabinoids your body makes naturally) to bring you to a state of deep relaxation and somatic awareness. You'll be guided throughout, and you can always return to a natural, comfortable breath whenever you need to.

• Do I need to have past experience with Cannabis to participate?

  If you are choosing to interact with Cannabis for this experience then yes, it is best to have previous expereince with this legal, accessible plant medicine. The sacred circle, the guided mindfulness and meditation practices and the breathwork all increase and amplify the effects of each other, making this a powerful, deep and meaningful experience for participants. You'll be guided and supported throughout the experience, and you'll remain in control of your own journey.

• What if I don't know how much Cannabis to use?

  You will receive preparation information before the journey, including guidance around setting your intention and preparing your space. We encourage participants to approach cannabis conservatively and mindfully, and to follow the guidance provided by the facilitators and your own legal and health considerations. You can always email us before the event to ask any questions.

• Will I be expected to share my personal experience with the group?

  No. Sharing is completely optional. At the end of the journey, we offer an optional sharing and integration circle where you can speak or write about your experience if you'd like.

• Is this a therapy session?

  No. This is a guided meditation, breathwork and consciousness exploration experience. It is not psychotherapy or medical treatment. The experience is intended for personal exploration, mindfulness and self-awareness.

• How should I prepare my space for the Journey?

  Create a quiet, comfortable and private space where you won't be interrupted. You'll want enough room to lie down comfortably, and we recommend having lots of drinking water nearby, comfortable clothing and eye coverings or a T-shirt to cover your eyes. Have blankets and pillows for comfort. Consider having mementos, crystals, or other meaningful symbols that you feel would be empowering during the journey. A journal and a pen are a good idea to capture any realizations. You will also need a reliable internet connection, a computer with working audio, and Zoom.

• Do I have to keep my camera on?

  Yes. For everyone's safety, your video camera must remain on throughout the ceremony. This allows the facilitators to maintain awareness of participants and the integrity of the group container.

• Who is this expereince for?

  This experience is for adults 21+ who are curious about exploring consciousness, embodiment, meditation and cannabis plant medicine in an intentional setting. You don't need to identify as “spiritual” or have previous psychedelic experience.

• Are there circumstances where this expereince is not appropriate?

  Yes. This experience isn't suitable for everyone. Please read the Safety Terms & Conditions carefully before registering. The current event specifically excludes people with certain severe mental health conditions, including psychosis and other psychotic disorders, dissociative identity disorder and personality disorders.

• What happens if I have an intense emotional experience?

  You are never expected to force your way through an experience. You'll be given tools for resourcing yourself and “riding the waves,” and the facilitators will be present throughout the journey. Afterward, you'll have the option to join an optional integration circle, and additional online integration support is available if needed.

• Will I be able to stop the experience and take a break?

  Yes, absolutely. Your experience belongs to you. You can adjust your position, return to your natural breath, open your eyes, reduce stimulation or simply rest whenever you need to. You are in complete control of your experience.

• Can I participate if I am taking medication?

  Because individual medications and health circumstances vary, please review the event's safety requirements and consult an appropriately qualified healthcare professional if you're unsure whether cannabis or breathwork is appropriate for you.

• What might I experience in this Journey?

  Every journey is different. You might experience deep relaxation, heightened sensory awareness, emotional release, vivid imagery, expanded awareness, creative insight, a deeper connection with your body...or simply a few beautiful hours of being present with yourself. There is no “right” experience. Your journey is uniquely your own. Your body knows what it needs, even if it isn't what your mind was expecting :)

• What if I get scared or feel overwhelmed?

  This expereince has been curated to provide a safe, loving, connected and resourced journey for participants. We are not trying to achieve significant emotional releases or hasten any natural processing of stuck energies. Having previous experience with Cannabis plant medicine will also alleviate any worries about its effects. The facilitators will be right there with you. At any time, you can write in the chat or put up your hand, and the facilitators can speak with you privately in a Zoom breakout room. Consider having a loved one on site or available nearby, as you would with other psychedelic breathwork or plant medicine experiences. All participants will provide an emergency contact during registration.
