Join us in Lab111 in Amsterdam for an exclusive screening in The Netherlands of the documentary ‘Music for Mushrooms’ by East Forest.

Music for Mushrooms is a powerful documentary that dives into the transformative magic of music and psychedelics for inner growth and resilience. 🌱 It’s a story of hope, perfectly timed for these challenging moments we’re all navigating.

A long-time collaborator of the late Ram Dass, East Forest blends shamanistic practices with guided psychedelic experiences, creating spaces where participants can confront their pain and fears, rediscover hope, and reconnect with their inner compass.

Through deeply intimate encounters with individuals whose lives have been profoundly altered by these experiences, the film serves as a poignant exploration of the healing potential of art, spirituality, nature, and psychedelics. It is a resonant ode to the power of introspection and transformation in an era marked by widespread anxiety and disconnection.
