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.
