I have been struggling with both depression and anxiety for years. It's been hell for me but then I got introduced to psychedelics and perception of being outside one's body. It enhanced my insight towards creativity and coming to terms with my own spirituality. Reach out to ARIA_SPOREZ on iñstägräm she gives microdosing advice and she also has good psychedelics. Microdosing is my life saver

Courtney spoke to us about the significance of NAIDOC Week, Reconciliation Action Plans, challenging our own biases, and what Brain Injury SA can be doing to create a culturally safe space.
This was an incredibly informative presentation for our staff, we are excited to implement these learnings into our practice. Thank you to Courtney for her time and expertise!
We encourage you to reflect on your own bias and explore resources to challenge your own perspective. For more information, check out: reconciliationsa.org.au/resources

Elvin can’t remember the exact date of the incident that changed his life, and left him with an acquired brain injury, but he remembers the details of his story from that moment until today with so much clarity.
He has had an incredible journey - travelling from his home country of Honduras all the way to Adelaide to continue his recovery. Read more about Elvin’s journey of independence and recovery on our website.
