We believe that true healing requires us to shift our approach: to mental health, and to our relationship with ourselves, to each other, to the world, and to how we live life itself. Our work is focused on supporting the emergence and integration of psychedelics and other transformational medicines, so that new ways of thinking, being, and healing can emerge.
The Work
Reconsider Initiatives
Reconsider engages communities of diverse voices and disciplines. We support emerging programs — including research, training, education, and policies — necessary to enable individual and systemic change.
Regranting
We catalyze support and awareness of partners. We know that it takes a community. We bring together philanthropists and community members to catalyze support and awareness for partners including Chacruna, SPORE, the Yorenka Tasorentsi Institute and the World Indegenous Ayahuasca Conference, the Treeangle Foundation, Right to Try, MAPS, IPN, and more. We do this through a regranting program as well as a fiscal sponsorship program where appropriate.
Community Building
In our disconnected, challenging world, community has never been more important. It’s how we are meant to live, and how we are meant to thrive. See how you can be involved!
We believe that our societal challenges emanate from our individual realities and choices, so all systemic and collective transformation must begin with individual healing and connection.
Our Approach
We bring people together for transformative programs, convenings, and forums.
We deepen learning into transformational medicines including psychedelics, educating and exchanging knowledge with others through our programs and media.
We work with gatekeepers such as medical providers and policymakers to promote a change in attitude around medicines such as MDMA, psilocybin and ayahuasca where research has confirmed their significant potential.
Get Involved
Together As One
At Reconsider, we are building a community of inquiry, learning, service and practice; where we value the importance of hard conversations, finding commonality and creating shared understanding.
“We don’t accomplish anything in this world alone… and whatever happens is the result of the whole tapestry of one’s life and all the weavings of individual threads from one to another that creates something.”—Sandra Day O’Connor
Great ways to get involved
Reconsider brings together visionaries from multiple disciplines and perspectives, top researchers, medical professionals, elders, facilitators, practitioners, philanthropists, journalists, creatives, business and organizational leaders and other community members supporting the emergence of transformational medicines.
Proposed Groups
We bring together different affinity groups, to share, to learn, and to inspire. By working within communities of interest or practice, we can dream together and support both individuals, as well as systemic change and transformation.
These include among others:
