Natural Highs

[School Councils UK <Jess...>]

Dear all,

I am running a session at our Limmud conference (a bit like your CAJE) in a
couple of weeks entitled:-

"Natural Highs - Essential Life skills drugs education fails to teach".

Based more recently on intense Hava Nashira experiences, I get frustrated
with the limited approach of 'Harm reduction' presently used by youth
workers here in the U.K. ie, you use drugs so our goal is helping you
reduce the risk in this use. I feel adults educating young people have a
responsibility to show how the body creates its own ecstatic drugs
stimulated by being in a familiar friendly group, singing, dancing etc.

Any comments or suggestions?
