The Psychedelic Yoga Research Collective develops and refines methods that support psychedelic healing, creativity and spiritual growth, through direct experience and rigorous practice. We are a Brooklyn-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Science-adjacent, pseudoscience-free.
Psychedelic healing has two established homes. Clinical research is rigorous but slow; traditional ceremony is ancient but culturally specific. The PYRC works in the ground between them. We develop body-mind practices for every stage of a psychedelic journey: preparation, the journey itself, and integration. We teach them to clinicians and healers, who pass them on to their clients, and to anyone who wants to practice.
Psychedelic yoga is a collection of practices drawn from many yogic traditions and curated for the psychedelic experience. Some are familiar; some are esoteric, like Tibetan Dream Yoga, which turns out to be highly relevant here.
