Primal Nature
In-depth conversations around making life as good as it can be, with people from all walks of life dedicated to exploring, healing, expanding, or transforming the self.
We are especially focused on psychedelics, heat and cold exposure, breathwork, and other practices that take us to the limits of human experience in both body and mind, so that we can better find our selves.
Primal Nature is a podcast and center for psychedelic therapy in rural Spain.
We work primarily with people who have reached the limits of what rational analysis can offer in terms of healing or growth; our practice is centered on cultivating deeper relationships between feeling and understanding, body and mind, human and nature.
We offer therapy for individuals and couples, as well as workshops, retreats, and expeditions - in select locations throughout Europe, the Americas, and Africa.

Barak Ben Dov - Experiments with Reality
Maybe the best way to describe Barak is as a kind of phenomenon, a creative force who channels curiousity, compassion, and insight in often surprising ways. He is a keen observer and playful participant. Unique. Gentle. Sincere. Today our conversation dances around the limits of thought and emotion, feeling and intelligibility; trauma, awareness, agency, psychedelics, spirit, demons, individual uniqueness and some of the deeper substrates of what we like to call reality. This felt at times like a game of existential tag. Primal Nature is a podcast and center for psychedelic therapy in rural Spain.

Richard Whall - Physical Intelligence, Biotensegrity, Bodymind
Richard Whall is Senior Lecturer in Human Movement, thoughtfully exploring ways to develop our physical intelligence and define what it might actually mean to be physically educated. Today we talk about the biotensegrity model and how it helps us to conceptualize the bodymind as a unified whole; we talk about the difficulties faced when trying to capture the complexity of these matters in scientific language, how personal practice can inform more abstract investigation, and more.

Jason leads a nomadic life, traveling through Europe with his homemade bike and guitar; with uncommon grace he manages to balance gentle thoughtfulness and raw grit, with many other qualities besides.
