Waves of Grief (#227)

Send us Fan MailMike and Doug talk about grief. After the sudden loss of a close friend, the conversation turns to the strange waves that follow death—the contractions of sadness, memory, anger, and love that move through the body if you let them. They reflect on childhood encounters with death, the different ways people grieve, and how tools like therapy, psychedelics, meditation, and music have changed their relationship to loss. Rather than something to avoid or numb, grief becomes something to ride—painful, yes, but also strangely beautiful. A conversation about loss, the people we carry with us, and the quiet trust that life keeps moving, even after death. Ex-Mormons on Psychedelics Panel Discussion - Wed, March 18 @ 12pm MTA free online event discussing the rise of psychedelics in Utah, especially among ex-Mormons, and the benefits and risks of this phenomenonThis is a Psychedelic Safety Seminar organized by the Challenging Psychedelic Experiences ProjectThis 90-minute seminar will explore the topic of psychedelic usage among Mormons, ex-Mormons and others in Utah.
