Mindful Self-Compassion + Psilocybin Journey
An 8-week online Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) course followed by an in-person group psilocybin journey in Portland. The program pairs one of the most research-backed compassion training frameworks with a guided psychedelic experience designed to deepen and solidify the work.
The MSC course runs Sundays, October 4 through November 22, 2026, from 3 to 6 PM Pacific on Zoom. Over eight sessions, you'll practice meditation, experiential exercises, and group discussion focused on building the capacity to meet difficult emotions with warmth instead of criticism. The group psilocybin journey takes place December 5 in Portland, after weeks of building trust and shared intention with the same cohort.
Mike Averill is a licensed clinical social worker, trained MSC teacher, and licensed psilocybin facilitator. He's joined by co-instructors Daria Crymes and Missy McMurray, both experienced mindfulness practitioners and facilitators. The facilitation ratio means you're well-supported in a group of up to 16.
No meditation experience is required. The program also satisfies a prerequisite for anyone pursuing MSC teacher certification.
