Nation's First Psilocybin (Magic Mushroom) Clinically Informed Spiritual Wellness Center to Open in Provo, Utah: Pioneering Profound Healing for all of the Nation. 

Provo, Utah – Sept. 6th, 2023 – a groundbreaking movement of psychedelic spiritual practice, called Singularism, is proud to announce the grand opening of the nation's first clinically informed spiritual wellness center in Provo, Utah. The nonprofit group will hold its ribbon cutting ceremony on Sept. 6th, 2023. Singularism.org is the nation's first officially recognized Magic Mushroom focused wellness center. With a steadfast commitment to upholding religious freedoms, Singularism's innovative approach harnesses the transformative power of psilocybin, the hallucinogenic compound found in magic mushrooms, to help individuals experience profound spiritual and healing journeys that academics at Johns Hopkins University refer to “the mystical experience,” (Griffiths R., Richards W., Mystical-type experiences occasioned by psilocybin mediate the attribution of personal meaning and spiritual significance 14 months later, 2011, March 8).

The clinically informed spiritual wellness center plans to begin sessions Oct 1st, 2023. "Our clinically informed spiritual wellness center pioneers a profound journey of transformation through an entheogenic ceremony," says Bridger Lee Jensen, MS. and Founder of the Singularism.org movement. "We integrate clinical precision with spiritual wisdom, illuminating a path to healing that not only enriches lives but also contributes to a better world." Bridger Lee Jensen has over 6,000 hours of experience with psychedelic integration utilizing psychoanalysts with psychedelic substances, and over 20 years experience in the mental health profession. Bridger led the charge to gather thousands of petition signatures and aided in writing and introducing SB Bill 200 in Utah’s state senate in early 2023, which aimed to legalize psilocybin for therapeutic use, as it is already protected for religious purposes. Similar bills will be introduced in subsequent sessions.

Singularism is working with government officials, and invites all inquiries in the spirit of openness and transparency. Singulaism is dedicated to safety, sincerity, and is adamant of the centrality of its entheogenic ceremonies for spiritual purposes. Singularism's spiritual counseling and ceremonies, grounded in clinical expertise, are conducted in full accordance with the United States Constitution. Singulairism has retained a large and reputable law firm known as a vanguard for religious freedom. Jensen states “Our legal team stands firm in the commitment to safeguard Singularism's religious rights. Our attorneys stand fully committed to leveraging their extensive resources in order to assertively safeguard Singularism's religious rights against any entity, individual, or authority that might misinterpret Singularism's lawful, safe and sincere ceremonies as unlawful. In our unwavering commitment to upholding the religious freedoms rightfully afforded to Singularism, we are fully capable of pursuing legal freedoms actions through all necessary levels of the judicial system." Singularism maintains its entheogenic religious ceremonies are safe, sincere, and necessary according to its religious beliefs.

Hundreds of academic studies have supported Singularism’s claims of the remarkable power of psilocybin, the compound found in magic mushrooms. One of the foremost researchers in the field of psilocybin research, Dr. Roland Griffiths of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, confirms that practitioners can not separate the science from the spirituality with magic mushrooms. He stated psilocybin treatment is "characterized by a profound sense of unity, a feeling that all people and things are connected, accompanied by a feeling of sacredness, a positive mood, love, joy, and a deeply felt sense of encountering ultimate reality. These experiences are felt to be more true and more real than everyday consciousness," (Gukasyan, N. 2022, Feb. 15, Efficacy and safety of psilocybin-assisted treatment for major depressive disorder: Prospective 12-month follow-up).

Psilocybin has quickly risen as a resurrected treatment that has repeatedly proven by the world's most renowned research institutions to have enduring positive impacts on individuals facing treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, addiction, and trauma, and has shown promise in aiding smoking cessation efforts, among many other benefits. Furthermore, psilocybin can foster lasting increases in creativity and the fundamental personality trait of human "openness", which is related to phenomenological feelings of forgiveness, positive well being, and increased acceptance of other peoples life's hardships and experiences, while simultaneously diminishing fear of death and existential anguish.

The grand opening of Singularism's spiritually guided wellness center represents an extraordinary step forward in the realm of psychedelic healing and spiritual counseling. The courage and dedication of the individuals pioneering this center promise to unlock new opportunities for others to take advantage of personal growth and societal transformation. Through the healing power of psilocybin and a commitment to safeguarding religious freedoms, Singularism leadership has stated that they “invite all to join us on this incredible journey toward enlightenment, healing, and a brighter future.”

peaceful religious community is at the center of what may be a significant religious freedom case. Singularism, a small, minority faith group for whom the safe and sacramental usage of psilocybin   is a core belief, has filed a lawsuit which complains that government authorities harassed the faith, intimidated its members, and violated their  rights to free exercise of religion.

The lawsuit stems from a November 11, 2024, seizure, interrogation, and illegal detaining of the church’s spiritual center and founder, located in Provo, Utah. As stated in Singularism’s complaint, police suddenly appeared, searched the spiritual center, interrogated Singularism’s founder, and seized Singularism’s sacramental psilocybin, as well as various religious records.  This occurred despite Singularism standing invitation written to local government to engage in dialogue and to tour its spiritual center a year before. Further, the officers stated that Singularism’s founder should expect criminal charges, but released and did not arrest him. On November 12, 2024, law enforcement served a letter on the landlord for Singularism’s space, threatening that if he did not evict Singularism, the government may exercise civil forfeiture. 

These actions contrast with Singularism’s long record of safety and sincere and non-threatening religious practices. Singularism uses sacramental psilocybin tea in guided ceremonies designed to promote healing, spiritual enlightenment, and the alleviation of suffering. Strict safety and religious sincerity protocols are followed, and participants undergo rigorous screening to ensure physical, mental, and spiritual readiness. 

“This is not just an attack on our peaceful church,” said Bridger Lee Jensen, founder of Singularism. “It’s an assault on the very principles of religious liberty that this country was founded on. We are a small but resilient faith community, and we will not allow our voices to be silenced by intimidation. We plan to fight this peacefully and within the bounds of the law.”
