Ep. 194 - Robert Gourlay - Structured Water and the Energy of Life

YouTube version:

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 194 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with Robert Gourlay. Robert is a scientist, in, I think, the best definition of that word, someone who is an innovator, a pioneer, a philosopher, and who looks at the world through a holistic lens. He has dedicated his life to the study of water and how structured, negatively charged water supports and helps humans and life to flourish. We spoke about his background, how an NDE helped to open him to his passion for water, what structured water is and the benefits, how to improve health through water, water on a micro and macro scale, climate science, and much more. It was a fascinating conversation, and I really think Robert is doing amazing work in the field of water and life and has much wisdom to share to help to improve people’s lives on the individual and collective levels.

Ep. 193 - Jessica Begin - Ayahuasca, Shipibo, Santo Daime, & Apprenticeship

YouTube version:

Audio version:

Hey everybody! Episode 193 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with my friend Jessica Begin. I have known Jessica for many years since we met working together at the Amazonian Shipibo ayahuasca center, The Temple of the Way of Light. Jessica has dedicated her life to a deep spiritual curiosity and calling. For many years, she has apprenticed with a well-known and respected family of Shipibo maestras, where she also helps to run their center. She has a deep and experiential knowledge of the plant medicine world, and we spoke about her journey into Santo Daime, the Shipibo lineage, the Tubu, ayahuasca, dieta, wisdom, and visions of the future. It was really a pleasure for me to reconnect with Jessica, and I know you all will gain much from her wisdom.
