About Us
A grounded approach to psychedelics for healing that ripples beyond the trip.
Psygaia is an independent nonprofit studying how psychedelics reconnect us to the living systems we belong to, and what it takes to practice with them well. What began as graduate research now runs through education, guidance, and community, with professional training taking shape.

The Psygaia Framework
An ecological theory of psychedelics.
Developed through graduate research at the University of Ottawa. No mystical shortcuts. A rigorous, interdisciplinary account of what actually happens when humans meet psychedelics.
Explore the framework →Systems & Gaia Theory
Psychedelics disrupt the boundary between organism and environment, activating a felt sense of embeddedness in living systems.
Enactive Cognition
Consciousness is not inside the brain. Psychedelics make the relational, embodied nature of mind undeniable.
Biosemiotics
Meaning-making is not uniquely human. Psychedelics may attune us to the signals and significance woven through the living world.
