Dive into the rhythmic world of raves as containers for exploration with Taylor Bratches, a multifaceted DJ, writer, energy healer, and psychedelic guide from Boulder, CO.

When I attended the MAPS Psychedelic Science Convention earlier this year, I attended Taylor’s talk on Rave as Ritual and it truly sparked my interest in exploring the subject deeper since raving has been such a big part of my own healing journey.

We discuss the transformative power of raves, painting them as modern-day rituals that foster community, healing, and profound self-discovery.

Dissecting the often-misunderstood realm of "recreational" psychedelic use, we explore the need for an open and curious mindset, urging listeners to move beyond judgment and recognize the potential of raves as catalysts for spiritual growth.

Dance, as Taylor passionately describes, is more than just movement; it's a potent tool for trauma release, embodiment, and tapping into unparalleled states of joy. When combined with psychedelics, the dance floor becomes a sacred space for spiritual awakenings and profound energetic healing.

This episode not only celebrates the ecstasy of dance but also highlights how rave experiences are pioneering the evolution of new healing modalities and practices.
