PRATI Reconnections Webinar Series: Spirituality in Psychedelic Healing with Joe Tafur, MD

Join us for an interactive webinar conversation on spiritual healing with Joe Tafur, MD. Through presentation, question and answer, and breakout discussion, participants will explore the intersection of spirituality, health, medicine and healing.

After his medical residency, Dr. Tafur completed a two-year Post-Doctoral Research Fellowship at the UCSD Department of Psychiatry. In 2011, he helped to found Nihue Rao Centro Espiritual, a traditional healing center in the Peruvian Upper Amazon. At Nihue Rao, Dr. Tafur underwent traditional apprenticeship in Traditional Amazonian Plant Medicine and Shipibo curanderismo. With his colleagues, he also started the non-profit Modern Spirit, dedicated to demonstrating the value of spiritual healing in modern healthcare. Dr. Tafur continues to lead journeys to Latin America to experience Traditional Amazonian Plant Medicine and Ayahuasca curanderismo. In his book, The Fellowship of the River, Joe shares stories that demonstrate the astonishing-mystical, colorful, metaphysical-effects of ayahuasca and Traditional Amazonian Plant Medicine.
