• Ep. 171 - Dr. Stephen Hussey MS, DC - The Physical and Spiritual Role of the Heart

  Hey everybody! Episode 171 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with Dr. Stephen Hussey. Stephen has a fascinating story of having survived a widow-maker heart attack in his 30s’ He went on to deeply research the role of the heart and how to optimize its health. It led him on journey to question many of the fundamental assumption of what the heart its, it’s role in the human organism, and how to keep it healthy. We speak about some of these fundamental assumptions, the role of structured water, infrared light, and the deeper meaning behind a purely physical model of the heart. This was a really fascinating conversation and I think Stephen has a lot of wisdom to share and you will gain much from his insights.

  Hey everybody! Episode 170 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with Tricia Eastman. I recently came across Tricia’s work and was really impressed with all she has been doing. It seemed we had a similar journey. I was happy to sit down and learn more about her and as she shared was very impressed with her presence and wisdom. We spoke about her journey with ayahuasca, her time working in an ibogaine clinic, her Bwiti initiations with iboga, ancestral lineages she has studied with, and some of the wisdom of this work she has learned along the way.

• Ep. 169 - Adrian Freedman - Music, Plant Medicines, Buddhism, & Shakuhachi

  Hey everybody! In this episode, I spoke with Adrian Freedman. Adrian recently came into my radar as he was performing in a festival that I knew about. We delayed our talk unit we could meet in person and I’m glad we did. Adrian has a really deep presence and we spoke about his journey being trained in classical music, his learning the Japanese shakuhachi flute and buddhism, his encounter with Santo Daime and ayahuasca, and what he has learned in many decades walking this path. We went over three hours and I really enjoyed speaking with Adrian and trust you all will get a lot out of the depth, wisdom, and clarity of Adrian. Note I had some difficulties with the audio and needed to use voice enhancement so there is some distortion in our voices from time to time, apologies!
