The River Course

The River Course is a 7-week online course that explores ancestral spiritual healing and its relevance to psychedelic-assisted therapy. Taught by physician and curandero Dr. Joe Tafur, this course draws upon his book The Fellowship of the River as well as his experiential knowledge of Amazonian plant medicines.

Through weekly classes and discussions, students will examine the integration of sacred plant medicines into modern healthcare and the intersection between biology, emotion, and spirituality. Dr. Tafur will guide participants through Shipibo shamanism, psychedelic therapies, limbic healing, and epigenetic modification. Grounded in ancestral wisdom and evidence-based science, this course offers tools and knowledge for utilizing spiritual approaches to promote healing and transformation.
