Join Dr. Irby and Suz for a free monthly online gathering where we’ll come together for a lightly facilitated, deeply human hour for professionals exploring topics in bodywork, medical care, psychiatry, and expanded states.
Tune into Sabrina and Suz in conversation where they explore ethical presence, consent, and connection in expanded states with warmth, honesty, and a little humor, too.
Exploring & Cultivating Plants of the Solanaceae/Nightshade Family
Jane Straight will guide a lively ‘hands on’ workshop exploring the fascinating history of some magical, medicinal species of the Solanaceae/Nightshade plant family. Many are strikingly beautiful, often bearing magnificent floral displays that are intoxicatingly fragrant. Each has a unique story that will inspire as we learn how to grow them for our personal gardens. Sat, May 16, 1 pm at the Shulgin Farm.
The Heroine’s Journey and Community Integration Models
Embark on a self-paced exploration, weaving together wisdom traditions, ethical practice, and community-centered models to transform individual insights into collective well-being.
Join a supportive learning environment that honors diverse perspectives on safety, psychoactive integration, and the reweaving of our social fabric.
Live Online May 26 - What the Fascia!? Perimenopause, pain, and prescribing
Perimenopause pain is a fascia story that deserves more than a shrug. Suz Vera and Dr. Daniel Irby unpack where bodywork, mental health, and prescribing meet during this wild chapter.
Perfect for those crafting holistic care plans without platitudes.

Unwind is honored to share a new resource we co-authored with EPIC Psychedelic and Autistic Psychedelic. It’s a living document designed to support ethical, sensory-informed care for the neurodiverse, anxious, and highly sensitive.
Sensory-Affirming Resources and Checklists: A Neurodiverse-Informed Psychedelic and Altered States Preparation Guide v1.0.
Research continues to show that psychedelics can be an effective treatment option for those living with a wide range of pain conditions.
On September 27 & 28, REMAP Therapeutics and the Psychedelics & Pain Association (PPA) hosted an online Symposium that elevated the rapidly growing body of knowledge in research and pain-patient communities. Sliding scale.
