M﻿ālama Mushrooms x Exploring Within x DJ Akadia presents...MYCELIATE: Movement, Music, &amp; Mushrooms. Come celebrate the medicine of movement, music, and mushrooms through an immersive silent disco connection experience in nature. Hosted on a beautiful private coffee farm Holualoa, this event was designed to inspire joy, well-being, freedom, belonging, acceptance, community, authentic expression, and deep connections to self, others, and nature. MYCELIATE is an opportunity to connect &amp; explore our wise &amp; wild nature. Join us ~on December 18th from 4:00 PM-7:00 PM~ on a beautiful outdoor dance floor in paradise, as we connect, learn, &amp; dance freely in nature with noise-canceling wireless headsets to restore our minds, bodies, and hearts with movement, music, and mushrooms and as our medicine. Beneath our feet, grows a rich underground network of fungi that allows plants to communicate called mycelium. Mycelia is a critical part of ecosystems, as these fungal connections enable plants and mushrooms who may be widely separated to support one another by sharing nutrients &amp; information. Mycelium helps plants feed each other, grow together, and flourish together. We humans are not much different. We’re all more interconnected than we think. We need each other to grow, to learn, to feel, to heal, and to thrive. By being part of a community, we elevate ourselves and those around us.

<h3>Fungi: The Final Frontier &amp; the Mushrooms of Hawai’i: Presented by Ben Lillibridge, Mālama Mushrooms &amp; the Hawai’i Fungi Project</h3>Join us for a deep dive into the fascinating world of the fungi King / Queendom, its evolution, what we know, what we don’t, and why it’s important. Did you know fungi can break down plastics &amp; other harmful pollutants to remediate polluted water &amp; soil? Or that some of the world&#x27;s most important medicines, from both traditional cultures &amp; folk medicine to clinically derived western pharmacology are fungi derived? There is a growing body of scientific studies emerging on mushrooms like Lion&#x27;s Mane for helping cognition &amp; nerve growth, and Reishi for stress &amp; immunity. However, there is still so much more we don’t know. This is especially true here in Hawaii where we know less than half the mushrooms, including many endemic &amp; endangered species. Some of which early analysis of therapeutic &amp; medicinal compounds show promising results.
