Happy Pride Month! Before jumping into all of June's celebrations and commemorations — with plenty of queer magick mixed in — take a look back at our #RealConvo video series, where we interviewed Assemblage members about the personal, spiritual, and societal issues surrounding mental health awareness.
A week of free coworking, as easy as taking a walk through the Park
Our third House, The Assemblage Park, is now open! We want you to join the celebration: book a tour with the code PARKWELCOME and you’ll receive a pass for a complimentary week in our beautiful new space.
Having a #RealConvo with...
DEEPAK CHOPRA
"The more you transcend everyday reality, which is a human construct, the more you get in touch with your deepest level of awareness, which spiritual traditions call the soul."
"Literally the most simple and brilliant shift in the conversation around mental health is that people are talking about it. Often the smallest things do really add up."
"In the beginning, I really felt that sharing anything was a weakness, a flaw, a sign of me not being strong enough, or man enough. And I've started to realize that's actually completely false."
"If we start telling people that they can't make mistakes, that they can't grow…that's really dangerous, and we're entering into a deep stage of shame culture that's scary and harmful.
Want to help spark a mental health revolution? Join us next Thursday night at The Assemblage John Street for Assembling a Psychedelic Therapy Clinic, a benefit for the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), featuring MAPS founder and executive director Rick Doblin, Ph.D.
