In Episode 5 of MAHA Living, Jordan Sather and Nate Prince dive into the healing powers of psychedelic compounds and challenge decades of cultural conditioning around “Schedule 1” substances. From psilocybin and ayahuasca to ibogaine and DMT, they explore the growing body of research showing real therapeutic potential for depression, PTSD, addiction, and neuroplasticity. The conversation breaks down how these compounds interact with serotonin receptors, stimulate brain-derived neurotrophic factors, and promote structural brain changes that can last months after just one to three sessions. Jordan and Nate also discuss the importance of intention, preparation, and responsible use, sharing personal experiences and lessons learned from both profound and difficult journeys. They examine the historical suppression of psychedelics, the pharmaceutical industry's resistance, and the recent shift toward decriminalization and medical research in certain states. Ultimately, this episode frames psychedelics not as party drugs, but as powerful tools—when used wisely—for rewiring the brain, confronting trauma, and fostering deep personal transformation.
“I mean, you know how it was with Michael. And when I heard that phrase, it was just... He saved my life. Like, what? He just sung a song, right? Like, but, you know, take probably one of my favorites, ‘Man in the Mirror.' Man, it still gets me. So, just from an experience standpoint, and I've done some travels in mental health and, you know, talking to people, I do understand how important music, or how powerful I should say, music is. So it absolutely feels like that being a musician, and then, I think, if you're a musician in church, it's… I've had some moments, Jodi.” – Jastin ArtisThis episode's guest is a multi-faceted artist, producer, engineer, and indie A&R who bridges creativity with leadership.

I would so appreciate that.(00:00) - How Sound Shapes Our EmotionsAs we start things off, Jastin tells us about his early musical influences, from Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin to growing up with Michael Jackson on the radio. “I would say I was probably four or five,” he recalls. “It was when the movie came out, Moonwalker, and I used to go to my mom's friend's house who was in the neighborhood every day after school and watch that movie.” We talk about the power of sound and music, and how easy it is to lose touch with our musical side as adults. “Everybody who has a guitar that's for decoration, that's sitting there,” he says. “I'm telling you, please pick it up. Play it while you're watching your favorite show, whatever. That little time adds up.”(10:45) – Harnessing the Power of MusicOur conversation focuses on the healing power of sound, and the impact it's made on Jastin's own life. “If it weren't for music,” he tells us, “I don't think I would be here… if I didn't have access to these records, if I didn't have that, just, I don't think I would be the man that I am.” He shares his perspective as producer and A&R executive, and how hard it can be to shake off that perspective sometimes when it comes to just sitting back and enjoying music. “I'm listening and I'm like, wait a minute,” he says, “what did they do, know what I mean? And then other times you're just, let me just chill.”(18:30) - The Intersection of Sound and BrandingAs the first half of our conversation wraps up, Jastin tells us more about his A&R work and what it's taught him about the sound...

With one-fifth of Americans living in chronic pain - and countless others carrying pain that is temporary, emotional, or unseen - Darcy Steinke invites us to reconsider something most of us try to avoid. She shares why she believes pain shapes not only the body, but the soul. Darcy has taught at Columbia University, NYU, Princeton, and the American University of Paris, and is the author of nine books, including This Is the Door: The Body, Pain, and Faith.
For over a decade, Jordan Sather has stood at the front lines of the digital information war — building one of the earliest independent platforms decoding Q in real time, getting banned from nearly every major platform during the censorship purge, and continuing to investigate the deeper layers of power, influence, and corruption behind stories like Epstein, intelligence blackmail networks, Pizzagate and the battle between mainstream and alternative media. In this wide-ranging and grounded conversation, Jordan walks us through his personal awakening, the rise (and infiltration) of the Q movement, the truth and distortion surrounding the Epstein files, and the psychological traps that can derail even the most sincere truth-seekers. You will not find blind allegiance or doom-fueled paranoia here — it's a sober exploration of psyops, influence operations, and the responsibility that comes with knowing. If you care about discernment in a chaotic age, this episode is essential listening.Time Stamps (00:00) Episode Teaser (00:34) Opening Conversation (04:37) Understanding Ibogaine and Its Effects (06:25) The Healing Power of Ibogaine (25:24) The Definition of Self-Love That Was Revealed (33:35) Intergenerational Healing (40:51) Reverence vs. Worship: Understanding the Difference (42:43) Yerasimos' Ayahuasca Experience (46:27) The Role of the Medicine in Personal Development (52:54) The Supplemental Dose: Processing Emotions and Ancestral Trauma (01:00:30) Integration and the Challenges of Returning to Normal Life (01:03:09) The Relationship Between Self-Betrayal and Self-Love (01:15:20) The Importance of Intent and Reverence in Medicine Work (01:22:28) Surrender and Trust: Lessons from the Divine Realm (01:27:25) Setting Intentions and Personal Reflections (01:30:09) The Impact of Social Media and Technology (01:40:37) Voluntarism and Political Philosophy (01:43:49) Personal Growth and SpiritualityGuest Linkshttps://www.jordansather.com/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links
Sunday is the fifth installment in our sermon series called "By Their Fruits You Will Know Them: 8 Core Characteristics of Authentic Followers of Jesus." This week we'll dig into what Jesus taught about the power of faith, exploring questions like: What is faith? How does it work? And is it really true that if I just have enough faith, anything can happen?
The Church Of The Souls Evolution with The Reverend Blake Rubie (Ordained Minister) Spirituality, Song, and the Metaphysics of Light Reverend Blake Ruby shares a deeply personal reflection on his life journey, blending his experiences in the military and music with a unique spiritual philosophy. He explores the transition from organized religion to "truth-seeking," emphasizing that the sun is the literal gateway to heaven and that our primary purpose is to grow our internal light through kindness and song. From Military Cadence to Spiritual Ministry Reverend Blake Ruby introduces himself as a minister with the Universal Life Church, a path he chose to pursue spiritual truth rather than the "money-making business" of traditional religion. His background is rooted in service, having joined the Army in 1982, where he discovered his vocal talent by leading cadences during basic training and PT sessions. This military foundation transitioned into a lifelong passion for singing, which he views as a spiritual practice that requires discipline and proper physical technique, such as deep diaphragm breathing. The Healing Power of Performance Ruby's singing career is extensive, ranging from cruise ship talent shows to performing the National Anthem for the WNBA's Silver Stars in front of 6,000 people. He spent six years performing for the "Wounded Warriors" at Fort Sam Houston, building a repertoire of hundreds of songs across rock, country, and spiritual genres. He believes that music is a tool for connection and healing, often performing songs by artists like Frank Sinatra, The Beatles, and Coldplay to address themes of nature and love. Cosmology and the Four Forces of Creation The core of Ruby's message is a cosmological model where the sun, located 93 million miles away, is the actual location of heaven and the birthplace of souls. He posits that all matter is made of light energy and that the universe was constructed using four specific forces: the creation of celestial bodies, plant/animal life, sentient beings, and the "infinitesimal spark" of the creator's light within the soul. He describes the creator as an all-encompassing, shape-shifting energy field that communicates telepathically and encourages all beings to "grow their light" to expand the universe. Earth as a School for Soul Evolution Ruby views life on Earth as a school where the goal is to "graduate with honors" through spiritual development. He touches upon the existence of extraterrestrials, suggesting they avoid contact because humanity remains a violent species. He advocates for political and social peace, urging listeners to recognize the inherent dignity in every human being, regardless of affiliation. Ultimately, he describes the afterlife as a "great reunion" in a world of transparent gold and "Trees of Life," where souls return to their parents of light after passing through the "River of Oblivion" at birth. Reverend Blake Ruby concludes with a message of universal brotherhood, reminding listeners that life is too short for unkindness. By recognizing the divine spark within ourselves and others, we prepare for the eventual return to the "world of light," fulfilling a journey of reincarnation and spiritual achievement

In this return conversation, Mark Gober opens up about one of the most intense and transformative experiences of his life: a guided ibogaine journey that forced him into direct confrontation with the roots of identity, self-judgment, and inherited fear. What unfolds is not psychedelic glamour or mystical escapism, but a brutal, compassionate reckoning with the architecture of the psyche — from parts work and suppressed rage to ancestral trauma and the meaning of real self-love. Mark describes communing with an intelligence that seemed to know him better than he knew himself, dismantling old narratives while demanding embodiment, responsibility, and integration. This is a raw exploration of what happens when insight becomes unavoidable, when healing moves through the body, and when love arrives in the form of truth.Time Stamps (00:00) Episode Teaser (00:34) Opening Conversation (04:37) Understanding Ibogaine and Its Effects (06:25) The Healing Power of Ibogaine (25:24) The Definition of Self-Love That Was Revealed (33:35) Intergenerational Healing (40:51) Reverence vs. Worship: Understanding the Difference (42:43) Yerasimos' Ayahuasca Experience (46:27) The Role of the Medicine in Personal Development (52:54) The Supplemental Dose: Processing Emotions and Ancestral Trauma (01:00:30) Integration and the Challenges of Returning to Normal Life (01:03:09) The Relationship Between Self-Betrayal and Self-Love (01:15:20) The Importance of Intent and Reverence in Medicine Work (01:22:28) Surrender and Trust: Lessons from the Divine Realm (01:27:25) Setting Intentions and Personal Reflections (01:30:09) The Impact of Social Media and Technology (01:40:37) Voluntarism and Political Philosophy (01:43:49) Personal Growth and SpiritualityGuest Linkshttps://www.markgober.com/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

Music is medicine. It has the power to heal us. And today's guest knows it's something we can self-prescribe, for free, whenever we want to benefit. Dr Daniel Levitin is a neuroscientist, cognitive psychologist and bestselling author. He's also a former record producer and an accomplished musician who's brought all those skills together in his latest book, Music As Medicine: How We Can Harness Its Therapeutic Power. As soon as I heard about it, I had to ask Dan onto the podcast to share his wisdom. As a lifelong musician and music fan, I know certain tracks change how I feel. But talking to Dan has opened my mind to just how profound an effect music has on the brain. It doesn't just shift our mood, it can affect our entire physiology. Dan has spent decades studying this, advising the US Government and working with the National Institutes of Health, to the point where his research is now influencing global health policy. We've all experienced the health-giving power of music, perhaps without realising. Now with that knowledge, and Dan's insights, we can start to put it to therapeutic use. Here's what fascinates me the most: music doesn't just hit one part of your brain. Different types activate different regions, in much the same way as certain medications work. And Dan shares some astounding examples of this – from the people with Parkinson's who relearn to walk, to the marathon runners who don't feel pain, to the Alzheimer's patients who can't recognise loved ones, but can recall how to play an instrument perfectly. The brain regions that process music are deeper, older and more protected. It's why music communicates emotion in ways that words can't always match. Throughout our conversation, Dan makes this case that music is our birthright. And it can flood us with feelgood, bonding hormones. So it's a tool we can turn to for overcoming trauma, processing difficult feelings, or connecting with others. But he doesn't just want us to listen. Playing an instrument, singing and songwriting all do more than you might expect – and you don't need to be an expert. The next time I'm strumming my guitar, I won't just think of it as a hobby. I'll know I'm doing something profoundly important for my health. And you can too. Whether it's learning an instrument, having a family singalong in the car, or simply switching on the radio, I'm not sure there's a simpler, more effective way to feel better.

Did you know that visiting a museum can lower your cortisol levels? Or that singing can bond a group faster than almost any other activity?

"Within society, we seem to have separated the arts out, so they're not so much a part of our daily lives. Often there's something that we feel we should do as a kind of leisure activity or hobby if we have enough time or if we have enough money to engage in them. And this is so fundamentally different to how humans engaged with the arts.

Coming up this week on Cultivating Place, host Ben Futa is in conversation with artist & activist Gardener, Tanja Hollander. Tanja works with gardens, social practice, photography, video, and installation to understand how cultural and visual relationships help us make sense of our chaotic world. Very specifically, her Mourning Flowers and Ephemera projects bring awareness, often through flowers and communal acts of gardening, to the ripple effects of trauma and fear that communities sustain after acts of violence, specifically gun violence. In these chaotic and frequently violent times, we can all use some mourning to compost trauma into healthier minds, hearts, communities - and gardens. Listen in! Cultivating Place now has a donate button! We thank you for listening over the years, and we hope you'll continue to support Cultivating Place. We can't thank you enough for making it possible for this young program to grow and engage in even more conversations like these. The show is available as a podcast on SoundCloud and iTunes.
