Neil Gehani - Psychedelics, Crypto, CO-OP's, DAO's, Meaning in Business & Life

Neil Gehani is an entrepreneur and software engineer; he is also a visionary in the midst of existential transformation. He is the driving force behind MindLumen, a nascent non-profit project that aspires to provide the psychedelic renaissance with the tools it needs to develop a rigorously ethical and financially viable alternative to the current pharmaceutical model that threatens to take hold of plant medicine in the US and worldwide. We talk about facilitating the connection between guides and explorers, the promise of cryptocurrencies, the trials and tribulations of developing ethical certification protocols, Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAO’s), and various cooperative business models in the US and Basque Country, as well as the real bottom line: how do we find value or meaning in (work)life, how does the psychedelic experience contribute to that, and how can we organize ourselves - as individuals, as businesses, and as communities - to be more in line with the most profound lessons we’ve learned from our plant medicine journeys?If you want to learn more or contribute to the MindLumen project, you can contact Neil here:Twitter: @MindlumenWeb: www.mindlumen.org--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.

Jonas Masetti - Enlightenment, Vedanta, Spiritual Therapy

Jonas Masetti is a highly skilled and innovative teacher in the Vedanta tradition, recently recognized by the Indian Prime Minister as an ambassador of this ancient path toward enlightenment. As opposed to other traditions that rely on meditation, breath, movement, or other techniques to provide discrete experiences of what we might call awakening, Vedanta is a process of philosophical and psychological inquiry that Jonas likens to “spiritual therapy.” He is a teacher, but also an author, podcast host, father, and the founder of many non-profit projects benefitting vulnerable populations in Brazil, where he lives. He is currently in the process of building a new Gurukulam, a residential retreat center for learning and growth in the Vedanta tradition.Together we explore Vedanta as a path to enlightenment, his personal journey out of convention and into himself; fatherhood, native Brazilian traditions, the enrichment of ancient practices with innovations from psychology, the Wim Hof Method, and more.You can find him on Instagram: @jonasmasettiand on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/JonasMasetti108/featured--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.
