Today on Sense of Soul we have East Forest a multidisciplinary artist, producer, and ceremony guide. He's a pioneer figure in the psychedelic music space, and is now making his mark in the film industry with, Music for Mushrooms. The documentary documents East Forest's personal journey, blending his groundbreaking work in guided psilocybin ceremonies with his deep connection to music. A long-time collaborator of the late Ram Dass, East Forest's work seamlessly integrates shamanistic practices with guided psychedelic experiences. These experiences create safe spaces where participants can confront their pain and fears, rediscover hope, and reconnect with their inner selves. For over 15 years, East Forest (Krishna-Trevor Oswalt) has been a thought leader and a grounded voice in the wellness landscape, guiding listeners through long-form compositions that resonate in diverse settings—from community yoga classes to luxury retreats. As the cultural conversation around psychedelics shifts towards mainstream acceptance, with headlines on decriminalization and groundbreaking studies, East Forest's music has become the go-to soundtrack for this emerging era of exploration and transformation. His multidisciplinary work spans ceremonial concerts, collaborations with Johns Hopkins University's Center for Psychedelic and Consciousness Research (particularly the neuroaesthetics project), serving as faculty at Esalen, leading meditations, and speaking engagements worldwide. He is also the co-founder of JourneySpace, a platform dedicated to guided psychedelic experiences. As the entertainment industry takes note of the psychedelic renaissance, East Forest's innovative approach to combining music and sound with personal transformation is leading the way. His work offers not only meditations, retreats, and a weekly podcast (Ten Laws w/ East Forest) but also continues to push the boundaries of how art and science can intersect to create profound healing.

Since 2008, East Forest's “lush” (Rolling Stone) and “blissful” (NPR) music has blended ambient, neoclassical, electronic, and avant-pop to explore sound as a tool for inner journeys and consciousness expansion. Known for being the first musician to collaborate with Ram Dass, his latest endeavor is the feature-length film Music for Mushrooms, a narrative documentary showcasing the transformative power of psychedelics, music, and community.“If you think about psychedelic ceremonies across human history, almost all of them were guided by songs and music. The same thing is used in the background of stores, birthday parties, weddings, working out, music is everywhere. But, it is the one thing that guides a ceremony typically. It could be been dancing, it could've been you always walk, no, it's music. It's showing us the power and potential of how it's deeply connected to non-dual, to the mystery itself, it's a kind of bridge.” – East ForestAbout Marisa Radha Weppner:Marisa Radha Weppner is a mom, author, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, DJ, teacher, minister, psychedelic therapist, community organizer, life coach, podcaster, and entrepreneur.

In this episode of the Psychedelic Medicine Podcast, East Forest joins to discuss several aspects at the intersection of music and psychedelics, including how he created the music that so many have used when facilitating psychedelic journeys. East Forest's latest project, a feature length documentary film called Music For Mushrooms, follows him through the psychedelic renaissance on a mission to pair music with psychedelics to bring about transformative healing to a world in crisis. In this conversation, East Forest discusses how he first got started making music for psychedelic journeys and the considerations that go into curating the right sound to best support these types of deep inner experiences. He emphasizes the importance of avoiding music that sounds overly sentimental and lacks the depth and richness important for effective psychedelic exploration. He also discusses the importance of maintaining the container, whether in the context of psychedelic facilitation or purely music-focused ceremonies, and suggested that sternness and fortitude have an important function in this context. In closing, East Forest suggests that music is so powerful because of the way it is able to be a point of connection to integrate experiences and bring people together. In this episode you'll hear: Composing soundtracks for psychedelic journeys with different substances Integrating nature sounds into compositions Flow states and music Bringing live elements of music and sound into a psychedelic ceremony Singing as a regulating technique during a psychedelic journey The intersection of music, technology, and psychedelics Quotes: “If we look at psychedelic experiences and ceremonies from indigenous use, all of them that I know of were guided by music.” [3:16] “I think it's more the intention behind the music. I don't think there's a particular thing you have to do or not do, but I don't think you can just play any music. So I think it's the intention of the music and the intention of the room and the intention of the participants… There has to be an invitation on all of those fronts for that doorway to open.” [16:11] “I think we're looking for music and for space that is supportive of that through-line and gives us enough time to be in a process—and that's another advantage of having these longform, intentional, bespoke songs because they are probably going to give more of that time and space for these processes to occur.” [32:43] Links: East Forest's website East Forest on Instagram East Forest on Tik Tok Music for Mushrooms documentary website Music for Mushrooms Official Documentary Soundtrack Winter Solstice Retreat at Esalen Music for Psychedelic Therapy by Jon Hopkins Psychedelic Medicine Association Porangui

Talking points: music, artistry, creativity, AI, culture, spirituality, psychedelics Music has been around for thousands and thousands of years. There's a reason for that: it's a powerful, synchronizing force between peoples, places hearts, and minds. And when you add psychedelics, well, that's a recipe for incredible journeys. I'm honored to have had this convo with one of my favorite artists, and we dig into just how important music is not just for enjoyment but as a guide, mentor, and facilitator. We also cover his upcoming doc, Music For Mushrooms. Listen in, team. (00:00:00) - What role does music play in our lives that we often overlook, and how East's relationship to music has changed over the years (00:08:25) - What's worrisome about AI and music? (00:16:47) - How artists can weather the storm (00:23:05) - On initiation, and the threshold we're crossing into a vast, uncharted era (00:26:00 ) - What was it like making music with Ram Dass? (00:32:49) - How do you make music for a psychedelic journey, and how the union of music and psychedelics leads to something more (00:43:15) - How do you describe psychedelics to someone who's never done them? (00:48:21) - How music can be a mentor and a guide to turn to (00:51:55) - What sparked East's Music For Mushrooms documentary Since 2008, East Forest has used music to guide listeners through modern journeys of deep introspection. The electro-acoustic project has remained primarily a solo effort (of Krishna-Trevor Oswalt), straddling the worlds of ambient, neoclassical, electronic and indie-pop. Whether via his Music For Mushrooms: A Soundtrack For The Psychedelic Practitioner album series, his collaborative spoken word album with Ram Dass, or one of his communal “Ceremony Concerts,” East Forest's goal has always been “building bridges and creating an approach that's grounded, embodied, and unarguable.” Connect with East -Website: https://eastforest.org/ -Documentary, Music For Mushrooms: https://eastforest.org/music-for-mushrooms -Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eastforest/ -Apple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/east-forest/304982626 -Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3AWGOhO *** Pick up my book, Men's Work: A Practical Guide To Face Your Darkness, End Self-Sabotage, And Find Freedom: https://mantalks.com/mens-work-book/ Check out some free resources: How To Quit Porn | Anger Meditation | How To Lead In Your Relationship Build brotherhood with a powerful group of like-minded men from around the world.

Dr. Evans says,"Since I began working with psychedelics, I rediscovered my love for medicine and found myself actually enjoying my time in the hospital. The challenges and stress associated with caring for ICU patients, their families, the nurses, the administration, etc., can be off the charts. Because of my work with psychedelics, I found I was much more capable of handling all of those challenges, and handling them well."https://www.reunionexperience.org/psychedelic-md-program-for-physicians _______________________________________________________PATREON / GIFT - Please support the show by joining our East Forest COUNCIL on Patreon.

Dive into the transformative effects of music with renowned musician East Forest. Since 2008, East Forest has been crafting music that facilitates introspective journeys, combining genres like ambient, neoclassical, and indie pop, often inspired by guided mushroom ceremonies. The discussion covers East Forest's use of music as a tool for emotional and spiritual exploration, especially in combination with psychedelics like mushrooms and ketamine, as well as in breathwork sessions. East Forest also shares insights on several of my favorite songs, maintaining creativity, the integration of transformative experiences, and the beneficial role of meditations and breathwork practices in the listener's transformation journey.

Brad had a transformative shift that occurred with plant medicine that has led him along an incredible, challenging, and yet rewarding path. He says he has learned to live more authentically, and that his experience with plant medicine provided the opportunity for him to also accept his identity as a gay man, something he says he knew for as long as he could remember but buried deeply. For him, to live more authentically, he decided to come out. His life has changed dramatically since. He sold his company, together with my wife concluded his 25-year marriage, and he established Reunion as a not-for-profit plant medicine retreat center in Costa Rica.

At Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Katherine MacLean conducted legal clinical trials of psilocybin. She was a lead researcher and session guide on the first study to test the combined effects of high-dose psilocybin, daily meditation training and integration support.
