Resistance & Acceptance, The Mortal Dance: Date with Death Club

May 19, 2025 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm EDT
Unitarian Universalist Congregation Blacksburg

Our attitudes toward our own mortality are a dance between resistance (do not go gentle into the good night) and acceptance (no one gets out of here alive). This session will use music and reflection to explore death anxiety and the new science around the use of psilocybin (“magic mushrooms”) to help ease the fear of death in those with terminal diagnoses.

The Date with Death Club sessions are spiritual and philosophical presentations and discussions on the Third Monday of each month 6:30-8:30pm at Unitarian Universalist Congregation, 1301 Gladewood Road, Blacksburg VA 24060.
