SUMMARY:PIR - The Bridge Within
DESCRIPTION:Psychedelics in Recovery (PIR) The Bridge Within meets every Thursday from 5-6PM. PIR is a 12-step fellowship of people from all 12-step programs and other paths of recovery who share our experience\, strength and hope with each other. Our primary purpose is to pursue recovery and help others do the same\, as defined by the individual. As our third tradition states: “The only requirement for membership is an interest in psychedelics and/or plant medicines as an aid to our recovery process.” The Bridge Within explores the bridges necessary for profound healing—both inside ourselves and between each other.  This meeting focuses on integrating the profound insights from our psychedelic experiences with the practical\, daily work of our 12-step recovery.

DESCRIPTION:Join BiRequest's Social and Discussion group for ALL who self identify as Bisexual+\, Biromantic+\, MSpec (Multi-gender Attraction Spectrum) and otherwise Queer-identified or Questioning regardless of Labels or the Lack of them … for ALL folx of every Gender & Gender Presentation including but not limited to Cis\, Genderfluid\, Intersex\, Nonbinary\, Trans\, and more at our regular Manhattan-based Meetings held Thursday\, November 17th from 6-8pm. The meetings are Moderated and focused on a Discussion Topic that is generated with input from the folks around the circle (nb. we do also hold space for folks who might need to deal with an issue in the moment). We work hard to foster a safe space for non-judgemental peer support while actively valuing racial and gender diversity\, sex- and body-positivity\, as well as the litany of intersecting identities that folks walk into the room embracing. We welcome spouses and allies to join us at our meetings to discuss a topic around issues related to our lived experiences as “the silenced majority” in the LGBTQ+ realm. CW: Please note that BiRequest discussions can involve sensitive topics. For anyone who is triggered by anything in the discussion or needs to discuss a personal matter\, multiple BiRequest facilitators will be available at the meetings. Please talk to one of us.
