"That psychedelics have been time tested for thousands of years, and being revered across cultures and continents, speaks to their deep history of beneficial influence. Modern science is now validating what our ancestors knew: psychedelics are essential for mental and spiritual well being."
- Paul Stamets
"Psychedelic plants, fungi and compounds are tools for learning; they place in our hands the keys to learn how to become better humans."
- Dennis McKenna

PAC Book Club: Mothership: A Memoir of Wonder and Crisis (Author Greg Wrenn in attendance)
A dazzling, evidence-based account of one man’s quest to heal from complex PTSD by turning to endangered coral reefs and psychedelic plants after traditional therapies failed—and his awakening to the need for us to heal the planet as well.
Professor Greg Wrenn likes to tell his nature-writing students, “The ecological is personal, and the personal is ecological.” What he’s never told them is how he’s lived out those correspondences to heal from childhood abuse at the hands of his mother.
Weaving together memoir and cutting-edge science, Mothership is not just a queer coming-of-age story. It’s a deeply researched account of how coral reefs and a psychedelic tea called ayahuasca helped Greg heal from complex PTSD—a disorder of trust, which makes the very act of bonding with someone else panic-inducing. From the tide pools in Florida where he grew up, to Indonesia’s Raja Ampat archipelago and the Amazon rainforest, this is his search for wholeness when talk therapy and pharmaceuticals did little to help. Along the way, as his ecological conscience wakes up, he takes readers underwater to the last pristine reefs on earth, and into the psyche.
Written with prophetic urgency, Mothership ultimately asks if doses of nature will be enough to save us before it’s too late.

Building the Future: Saving the Past
The Mazatec tradition and historical use of plant & fungal medicines is integral to the international renaissance of interest in psychedelic medicines. The knowledge of Mazatec wisdom keepers and healers along with cultural aspects of life in the Oaxacan region are being preserved for future generations by dedicated volunteers in the Historias Mazatecas Archive.
To prevent this archive from being lost to weathering and age, Vuelta Sur and Fungi Foundation are collaborating on fundraising efforts to secure the funds to construct a museum to safely house these cultural artifacts, and rich heritage of the Mazatec people.
Join the PAC as we have the unique opportunity to discuss these fundraising efforts with Giuliana Furci of Fungi Foundation and Inti Garcia Flores, whose life work is the preservation of the Mazatecas Archive.
Learn why this preservation effort is so important to the worldwide psychedelic community and how you can help in the preservation effort.
Your donation is integral to bring this important project to completion. Offer your financial support today!
