Rachel Lovie

Rachel’s background in the arts and education, and lifelong interest in expanding awareness, led her to a doctoral inquiry that explored the myriad processes at work in transformative learning experiences. She developed a rich understanding of the interplay between the variety of ways we come to know and relate to ourselves, others, and the world through the extrarational dimensions of emotion, imagination, intuitive and embodied knowing.

Rachel is a trained wilderness rite-of-passage guide, helping people reconnect to their own wild nature through ceremony and intentional contemplative journeying in the natural environment. She has an abiding love and respect for psilocybin containing mushrooms as guides and teachers, and for revealing the deeper truth of our connection to our beloved Earth and all beings.
