In our Autumn 2020 issue, we were pleased to share a short feature on THRIVE II, a documentary that puts forward many revolutionary suggestions for problems in our world. Since that issue went to print, we have had the pleasure of interviewing the filmmakers, and we will be featuring a four-page special feature on the documentary in our upcoming Winter issue. Read on to enjoy the piece from our Autumn 2020 issue!
We Recommend: Online Pranic Healing Course With Joan Hunt
If you’ve ever been curious about Pranic Healing, now is your chance to learn more about it! We are great fans of healer Joan Hunt, of the Institute of Pranic Healing UK & Ireland, so we were excited to learn that she is offering a short course in Pranic Healing. This course will specifically focus on how this modality can be used to bring about healing of the self. The eight-hour course will take place over two days, via Zoom.
In our Autumn 2020 issue, our resident meditation expert Sandy Newbigging provided us with a great reflection on the challenges and gifts of being a truth seeker. We previously published a sneak peek of this article to our website, and today, we’re sharing the whole thing. Read it below.

Positive Nights: The Promise and Challenges of Psychedelic Therapy
During this very special Positive Nights event, we will be joined by Rob Coffey and Dr Darragh Stewart (Phd), co- founders of Inwardbound Psilocybin Retreats in the Netherlands, to talk about the promise and challenges facing the emerging field of psychedelic therapy.
We will be looking at some maps of consciousness associated with psychedelic therapy, how psychedelics can be used in a therapeutic way, and some of the risks associated with psychedelic therapy.
Rob Coffey is a psychotherapist (IACP pre-accredited), and since 2013 has been training as a Transpersonal Therapist at the Irish Centre for Shamanic Studies (Dunderry Park).
Dr Darragh Stewart has a Phd in plant genetics and is a co-founder of Inwardbound.
This event will take place over Zoom on Wednesday November 25th at 7.30 p.m. Irish time. If you are located outside Ireland, please check what this time will be in your local time zone. The link and login details will be sent to all ticket holders the day beforehand.
