Ep. 18 - Safa Roberts - Yoga, Pranic Healing, and Plant Medicine

YouTube version:

 

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 18 of the show is out. In this show, I spoke with my friend Safa. Safa is a yoga instructor, pranic healing and plant medicine practitioner who I met at the Amazon healing center The Temple of the Way of Light, where she led worked as a teacher and facilitator of ceremonies. She spent a long time living in India studying deeply yoga and pranic healing and eventually came to the Amazon to learn in-depth the traditional Shipibo lineage of working with plants. She works in the Sacred Valley of Peru with her partner Felix, who I interviewed in episode 14. Safa has a lot to share and I think you all will very much enjoy this conversation. And check out Patreon for the full interview. Best!

“Safa (Soi Kete in Shipibo) brings a wide variety of skills to the team and has been dedicated to the medicine for over twelve years. Residing in India for several years, she trained in yoga, specializing in breathwork and study of the subtle or energy body. She ran her own yoga school and lead yoga trainings worldwide from 2011-2015. Through this work she gained extensive experience facilitating groups through deeply personal and transformational experiences. 

Safa has been deeply involved in the study and practice of energetic healing for over fifteen years. Originally certified in Pranic Healing, she has since studied with many teachers of various modalities to broaden her repertoire of skills. She has been working with the Shipibo to learn energetic healing directly from the plants and brings this highly specialized work into the ceremony space.

Facilitating for various medicine centers in Peru, she has acquired a strong repertoire of emotional/mental processing tools that help to bridge western pathology and understanding with the Shipibo paradigm of healing. Honoring the Shipibo lineage, she continues to study and diet with her maestro Soi in his community of Nueva Betania.”

Ep. 16 - Marta Wanderlust - Yoga and the Path of Mind-Body-Heart

YouTube version:

 

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 16 of the show is out. In this show, I spoke with my friend Marta. Marta is a yoga instructor and plant medicine practitioner who I met at the Amazon healing center The Temple of the Way of Light, where she led workshops combining yoga and plant work. She draws on a lot of different traditions and modalities and bridges them together in a beautiful way. She is currently working on a book and offering one-on-one mentorship. I enjoyed this conversation and if you have any interest in yoga, plant medicine, and connecting the mind, body, and heart, I think you’ll enjoy this conversation as I did. And starting next episode I will begin releasing extended interviews of most of the episodes exclusively on Patreon, so check out more on that below.

“Marta Wanderlust is a space holder, spiritual mentor, a Yoga teacher and a Breathwork facilitator. Born in Poland with a history of having cities like London, Berlin or Rio de Janeiro as her home, Marta has spent the last six years living between India and Peru. She has studied across diverse traditions, devoted to understanding our human physicality and the pathways to Spirit. Her deep immersions into the realms of Advaita Vedanta, Yoga, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Plant Medicine, high-Andean and Amazonian shamanism have led her to understand that all paths are complementary, and ultimately lead to the very same realization of Unity, which she likes to refer to as 'remembering'. Marta is currently based in Europe, working on self-publishing her first book, sharing her practice with her online community, mentoring private clients, all while looking forward to the day when her greatest love, hosting of small transformative retreats internationally, will again be possible. “

Ep. 12 - Tsu-Yin Chang - Mindfulness-based Psychotherapist and MAPS Psychedelic-assisted Therapist

YouTube version:

 

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 12 of the show is out. In this show, I spoke with my friend Tsu-Yin Chang.  Tsu-Yin is a Mindfulness-Based Psychotherapist who I met working at the Amazonian plant-medicine center The Temple of the Way of Light, where she came as a guest. I found her story fascinating as she has spent a number of years studying meditation in a monastic setting. She combines her mindfulness-based training in her work as a psychotherapist. Spawned by her own experience and interest, she recently began the process of training in psychedelic-assisted therapy through the well-known organization MAPS. I always find people interesting who bring various backgrounds together to better understand the mind and to assist people in their journeys with that. I really enjoyed talking to her and I think you will enjoy listening. Cheers!

“Tsu-Yin Chang is a Mindfulness-Based Psychotherapist who integrates empirically-based Western psychological modalities with the knowledge & wisdom she’s gained through dedicated practice with mindfulness teachers in Asia, Australia and the US. 

Since 2000, she has been fortunate to be immersed in the study of therapeutic & contemplative approaches to personal & interpersonal growth, psychological healing & transformation, alongside some of the world’s most respected psychologists, therapists, and teachers. 

After completing a couple years of intensive Buddhist monastic training in Asia, the integration of spirituality into therapy became one of her passions, as well as helping others realize that the fulfillment they might be looking for on the outside can instead be found deep within. 

She has a private practice in Boston, Massachusetts, and supports clients all across the country in mindfulness meditation online. She can be found at: https://www.mindful-living-center.org/ “

Ep. 11 - Mark Flaherty - Author, Astrology, & Ayahuasca

YouTube version:

 

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 11 of the show is out. In this show, I spoke with Mark Flaherty. Mark Flaherty is a consultant astrologer with clients in over 60 countries. He has studied with Dr. Geoffrey Cornelius, former President of the Astrological Lodge of London, and Bob Mulligan of the Astrology Company, Florida. He is adept at translating the astrological symbols into simple English so that everybody can use this information to better understand themselves and live happier, more fulfilling lives.

I’m really interested in the stars, cosmology, ancient civilizations, numerology, and esoterica, so it was interesting for me to hear his knowledge about astrology. I enjoyed this conversation and I hope you will too. Cheers!

(This is a footnote and follow-up from Mark on the significance of the number 12: "Astrology is essential about the union between the masculine/feminine, yin/yang - the Sun and the Moon. 12 comes from the relationship between the Sun and the Moon. The Sun symbolically speaking is the 1 (one year is one orbit of the Earth around the Sun) and the duality/dividing of the One into the many is made by the Moon. There are roughly 12 lunar cycles (29.5 days from New Moon to New Moon) in the year. So the Sun is 1 and Moon 2 (duality), which also come together as 12. So the full circle of astrology is divided into 12 parts - the One into the many. So 12 essentially represents the Sacred symbolic marriage of the Sun and Moon. I got it from an astrologer friend, Acyuta-bhava Dasa.")
