Since experiencing a life-defining psychedelic rebirth in 2008, Ehren has pursued the mindful study & use of sacramental entheogenic compounds as a cornerstone of self-actualization, spiritual growth, peak performance & servant leadership. Over the past 14 years, this path of inner discovery has evolved through a life devoted to ceremonial practice, high performance training, transformational event curation, and psychedelic facilitation. To date, Ehren has facilitated over 125 high dose 1 on 1 ceremonial journeys and served as lead facilitator in 10 psychedelic retreats throughout the world. He specializes in facilitating holotropic experiences for treatment resistant mental health challenges & spiritual rites of passage.
After a decade as an award winning producer & high performance team builder, netting over $100M in gross regional income through festivals & events, in early 2021 Ehren founded The SpArc: A groundbreaking coaching approach that utilizes rites of passage immersive experiences to dramatically elevate awareness, embodiment and impact.
The SpArc currently serves as the SouthEast regional service provider for the Nation's first harm reduction psychedelic facilitation service Psychedelic Passage. In late 2022, the SpArc achieved the immense fortune of welcomed two new highly experienced facilitators Salix Lavine and Nathan Taylor with plans for continual expansion. In Fall of 2023, the SpArc will be launching the "Communitas Sanctuary" retreat center. Located just 20 min north of Asheville, NC on 11 acres of beautiful mountain forest, the Communitas Sanctuary will form an epicenter for Rites of Passage ceremonial work offering boutique lodging for 15 guests with sacred sound & movement facilities, botanical orchards & gardens, ceremonial immersive temple spaces and an expansive offering of holistic wellness offerings & services.
