In this conversation, Reverend Bodhi Be discusses the evolution of his work in conscious dying and the establishment of the Ram Dass Institute of Psychedelic Studies. He emphasizes the importance of community care in the dying process, the role of death doulas, and the integration of psychedelics as a tool for end-of-life care. The discussion also touches on cultural appropriation in the use of sacred medicines and the need for a community-centered approach to dying. The upcoming event in Maui aims to bring together various practitioners to explore these themes further.
This video explores the intersection of end of life care and the use of psychedelics in managing anxiety and fear. It highlights the importance of health care and support during the death and dying process, emphasizing community care and how hospice care teams can provide comfort.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
