Hey everybody! Episode 189 of the show is out. This episode is a podcast I was interviewed on called Ayahuasca Podcast hosted by Sam Believ. Sam runs an ayahuasca center in Colombia and we’ve gotten to know each-other and I was happy to come on his podcast for an interview. We spoke about a lot of topics in this plant medicine world such as my time in Peru working at an ayahuasca center, my work with tobacco, the idea of cosmovisión, and what the path of apprenticeship entails. Sam did a great job with questions and I hope you gain some insight from this interview.

Ep. 187 - Dr. Nathan Bryan - Nitric Oxide: A Molecule for Human Health

YouTube version:

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 187 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with Dr. Nathan Bryan. Dr. Bryan is a doctor who has spent much of his life studying the effects and benefits of the molecule nitric oxide and its relationship to health. We spoke about how he first came to know it, the correlation and potential causation of a lack of nitric oxide in various health conditions, ways to improve endogenous production, the role of the oral microbiome in health, and holistic health in general. It’s a fascinating subject, and Dr. Bryan is doing really good work illuminating this little-known molecule.

“Dr. Hartman’s interest in integrative & functional medicine first began after he and his wife Rebekah adopted their first daughter Anna in 2007. The medical system didn’t offer much hope for Anna’s medical condition and they were forced to explore alternative treatments. Over time, Aaron began to apply the new concepts and treatment modalities he was learning to his clinic patients as well as his own family. In 2012 he formalized his commitment to exploring new and advanced treatment opportunities through his membership with the American Board of Integrative and Holistic Medicine and then the Institute for Functional Medicine. In 2015 he received his second board certification in Integrative and Holistic Medicine through the American Board of Physician Specialties and in 2016 earned the recognition as a Certified Practitioner in Functional Medicine from the Institute for Functional Medicine.

In 2012, Aaron and Rebekah’s commitment to their family’s health led them to move to a little farm outside of Richmond Virginia. While researching how to care for their land, animals, and livestock, Aaron and Rebekah learned about the intricate connections between their health, that of the land they cultivate, the animals they care for, and the food they eat. This led to Dr. Hartman’s intense interest in nutritional medicine as well as ecological medicine and toxicology.

Dr. Hartman opened Richmond Integrative & Functional Medicine in 2017. His mission at RIFM is to apply the sum total of his scientific research, medical knowledge, clinical experience and continuing studies to his patients in an individualized manner. This new field of medicine has been called Functional Medicine, Integrative Medicine, Systems Biology Medicine and Root Cause Medicine. At its core is the application of the sum total of current and ongoing scientific knowledge in the context of modern medicine, allowing for the appropriate integration of other healing traditions as appropriate, in an individualized manner.”

Ep. 184 - Jason Grechanik - Iboga, Tobacco, & Plant Medicines

YouTube version:

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 184 of the show is out. This episode is a podcast I was interviewed on called Beyond the Courage hosted by Robert Canis. Robert has a really good podcast about holistic healing and I was happy to join him. We spoke about a lot of different aspects of my path and he also really focused on iboga which is not something I speak much about. It was a good interview and Robert did a great job of picking my mind and going into some subjects I rarely speak about. Consider supporting his work if you can.
