Podcasts about rythmia

We dive into a raw and honest conversation about my first ayahuasca ceremony in Costa Rica. Despite expecting profound visions, the experience was unexpectedly subtle. Yet, it led to deep reflections on ego, masculinity, and the journey of reconnecting with the soul.We explore the challenges of spiritual awakening, the illusions of the ego, and the path to authentic living. This isn't just about plant medicine it's about the courage to face oneself and embrace transformation.If you're seeking truth, healing, and a deeper understanding of self, this conversation is for you.

If you haven't done the emotional work to clear suppressed trauma, it can crack you wide open in ways you aren't ready for.Elly breaks down the four-night ceremony, the profound realizations she had, and the moment the medicine told her she's moving to Costa Rica (!!!)Some of the big themes:- The voice of Aya sounding just like her Higher Self- Experiencing Universal Oneness and how it was not what she expected- The hardest night of her life and what non-attachment really looks like- Healing deep wounds—including intergenerational trauma- The exact moment she fully stepped into her purpose and realized she's meant to become a shamanVeronica also shares her perspective—why she's feeling resistant to plant medicine right now and the tools she's using instead to connect with wholeness and Oneness.This is raw, powerful, and full of insights that go way beyond just plant medicine. It's about trust, surrender, and doing the deep inner work that opens you up to the next level of your life.You're not ready for this one. But listen anyway.

Today, Michael welcomes back conscious entrepreneur, Gerard Powell. Gerard is the founder and CEO of Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Costa Rica, the "go-to" program for spiritual awakening and personal transformation where 98% of attendees report having a life-changing miracle during their stay. After surviving a violent childhood and an early stint as a gun and drug trafficker, Gerard became mired in a life of drug, sex, and alcohol addiction despite becoming a rich and successful entrepreneur. Through rehab, years of spiritual counseling with Agape ministers, and experiencing an ayahuasca healing ceremony, over time, Gerard was able to completely transform his life mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. This experience inspired him to create Rythmia as a “one-stop” center to assist others in doing the same.   During their time together, Michael and Gerard discuss: -Gerard's spiritual journey and the healing modalities he found most helpful -The key signs or experiences one has while going through a profound transformation and how one can maintain their spiritual connection and continuing evolution after their initial awakening -What inspired Gerard to create a “one-stop” holistic healing space with an on-site medical center in Costa Rica and how Rythmia caters to those seeking spiritual and emotional healing and enlightenment -Michael's upcoming “The Answer Is You” course at Rythmia, January 12 - 19, 2025, and so much more!  Next, Michael leads a guided meditation.

Let's talk about Spiritual Warfare. I know.. such a heavy topic right? But a while back on Instagram, I asked all of you if this was something you believed in and wanted more information on. The response I got was astounding. The majority of you were craving an episode on this topic so here we are! EP327: Plant Medicine, Spiritual Warfare & Mental Health Spiritual Warfare is a concept that has gotten a lot of popularity over the last few years. It's based on the idea that there is an energy far greater than us in our field that is trying to control us and keep us in fear as humans. I know it's a crazy intense thing to talk about, but I felt like it was time I spoke about it with all of you. In today's episode, we are exploring:  - What exactly Spiritual Warfare is and how it shows up in our global, political, and societal programming - How the news, media, corporations, and the government play a role in keeping us small, afraid, and controlled - What Spiritual Warfare does to our psyche and how to rewrite our relationship with fear - The ways in which we are conditioned to be distracted, fearful, and in argument with one another - How to gain sovereignty during these times and the ways to unplug from the fear-based belief system.  Plus I share my strong belief systems around this concept and how to keep your mental health clean, clear, and grounded in a world that is constantly full of distraction. I share some of my tips for keeping yourself in a healthy state of mind and the way I take care of my own mental health. Also - in this episode, I share a little bit more about my trip to Costa Rica!

You've got the business, the car, the boat, the house. You're blessed with a great family, friends, access to more than your wildest dreams. But something is missing. Something is gnawing at you. If this sounds familiar, you may be in need of “soul fulfillment,” which is what Host Chris Schembra's guest on this episode of Gratitude Through Hard Times has provided thousands of people. At his Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Costa Rica, Founder & CEO Gerry Powell offers comprehensive plant-based medicine retreats. The modalities work at a deep level to help remove shame, fear, trauma and the anger that fuels – and is a downfall for – so many hyper-successful people. You'll learn about Gerry's transformational journey and how he stepped away from the multimillion-dollar serial IPO lifestyle he thought would bring him happiness – but that instead left him profoundly empty and suicidal. Working with plant-based shamanic techniques opens up new pathways to self-acceptance and compassion. It's a journey that 97% of Rythmia participants describe as nothing short of a “miracle,” a source of relief and revelation that transcends our ingratitude, confusion and old, unhealed wounding. Most of all, says Gerry, people leave his one-week retreats with an entirely new regard for life: “I made it out of sheer perseverance and brutality, but there are so many other ways to do it and feel different.” You're invited to explore and see your soul's fulfillment in a completely new way!More information about the medically licensed plant medicine and transformational retreat experience offered at Rythmia is available at this link, along with a video about Gerry's very personal journey to wellness (here).If you'd like to learn more about Chris and his 7:47 Virtual Gratitude Experience or subscribe to our newsletter, please visit this link.Click hereto hear more fascinating conversations with Fortune 500 CEOs, professional athletes and entertainerswho have shared their human stories on Gratitude Through Hard Times. KEY TOPICS:When the Bucket Doesn't Feel Full: Why Gerry wants to reach out to successful entrepreneurs who very often feel something missing and don't understand what or why.If you could give credit or thanks to one person in your life that you don't give enough credit or thanks to – or that you've never thought to thank – who would that be? So many people, but Shaman Gina was pivotal.The Gift of Perspective: How plant medicine can help reveal to us the ways in which even those who hurt us are of help in our lives – even when we don't see it.Sections in Chris's book that are relevant to plant medicine:Connect the Dots Backwards: About gratitude as a link to our past.Struggles into Benefits: About the science behind “grateful processing.”Feeling the Feelings: How a lifetime of numbing and other corrosive emotional coping mechanisms turned around only after Gerry was able to embrace a shamanic experience with plant-based medicine.Repairing the Fraction: Gerry turned his life over to healing, creating a unique retreat space at @Rythmia in Costa Rica, changing the lives of more than 14,000 seekers.Coming from Ingratitude: How a hypervigilant “brute” approach to the pursuit of goals yields only more anger, shame, guilt, regret.Plant Medicine: It's a conduit to compassion, self-love, wisdom and generosity that enables us to be collaborative, empathetic, curious leaders.Knowing When You're Ready: Plant medicine comes into focus when we are ready to put the pieces together and open ourselves to transformation.The Comeback Story: Rythmia is about taking people out of their hole, to the brink and back from despair to a “miracle.”Joining the Tribe: Why plant medicine work of the type Gerry practices offers hyper-achievers a place to reconnect, work through shame and guilt and find wholeness in a safe community environment. QUOTABLE“It's the perfect time to be in this work as the world is waking up that there is a greater human potential out there.” (Chris) “There are people who help pull you towards your higher self and people who hurt you who keep pushing you towards your higher self.” (Gerry) “Gratitude is about looking into the past and being grateful for all the steps that took you to where you are today – the good and the bad.” (Chris) “Once you die you can actually live life without the fear of death, which makes you really want to be more than anything a beneficial presence here on earth.” (Gerry) “The secret to success and happiness is not necessarily a new go-to-market strategy, not a higher intellect or new network … It's actually to look inside yourself and be at peace with who you are.” (Chris) “Very few of us who are hyper-successful were raised in the right way. There's a reason those folks are in the one-tenth of one percent. And it's not because everything was nice and tidy.” (Gerry) “Guilt and shame and regret are extremely lonely emotions and the thing you think you should do is not talk about it. But it's actually the opposite: Confront it, talk about it and forgive yourself. Plant medicine really helps you do that.” (Chris) “The obstacles you've overcome – the shame, guilt and trauma you feel right now – are the best parts about you because true human connection and belonging do not occur when our lives appear to be perfect.” (Chris) LINKS/FURTHER RESOURCES:More about the global leadership community YPO at this link.About "Grateful Processing," a concept developed by Prof. Phillip Watkins of Eastern Washington University."The Magic of Thinking Big," by David J.

And I said to the shaman, "I can just die happy now." And he said, "you did. " "I might not even drink the Ayahuasca tomorrow, because what more could there be for me? This is it. This is what I came here for. This was why I came here." "You'll drink. You'll drink tomorrow." And I laughed. I said, "I surrender to that." I thought it couldn't get any more powerful. Spirit gave me this so I can move along on my mission and continue with my work and rise higher without the weight of this. And not from bypassing it, not from erasing it, not from repressing it, but from truly processing it in alchemy.

Today's episode is a story of healing, specifically with plant medicine. If you're one of our many loyal listeners you know that a small group from the Neurohacker team recently went to Rythmia, a beautiful medically-licensed plant medicine center in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. In a previous episode we interviewed Dr. Jeff McNairy, Chief Medical Officer at Rythmia. Today we speak with Rythmia's founder, Gerard (Gerry) Powell. Gerry speaks in very transparent terms about the fact that even though he was successful from a secular standpoint, inside he was empty and in desperate need of healing. He credits plant medicine with his ability to transcend from a life of addiction and depression to one of purpose and contentment. Gerry's story is told with much heart, vulnerability, and passion. We're excited to bring it to you. Listen in now.

This episode is one that's close to our heart. A small group from the Neurohacker team recently went to Rythmia, a beautiful medically-licensed plant medicine center in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. Our goal was to better understand and experience for ourselves how fusing ancient wisdom and modern techniques, with a focus on shamanic plant medicine, can help us heal and live a life led by love to better show up in the world. While at Rythmia, we interviewed Dr. Jeff McNairy, Chief Medical Officer at Rythmia. He shared with us an in depth view of the science associated with healing through plant medicine. We also discussed: The history and origin of the ancient medicinal brew ayahuasca How ayahuasca compounds affect the brain Exactly what to expect during an ayahuasca ceremony Who shouldn't use ayahuasca And much, much more. We're excited to share this very special interview with you. Join us by listening in now.

Josh Trent, founder of https://wellnessforce.com/ (Wellness Force) Media and host of https://wellnessforce.com/podcast (Wellness Force Radio), has gone through a lot in his life — like every one of us — but he's also done the work to acknowledge his trauma and make it work for him, which is a step that we can all benefit from but not a lot of us are willing to or know how to take. Luckily, Josh has a knack for breaking this stuff down and making the choice to change feel accessible. It isn't easy. It will require you to live more intentionally and consciously every day, for the rest of your life. But the rewards are incomparable. What Brett asks: [2:30] What's your origin story? [6:25] What did you learn from past-life regression and how did you go about doing it? [16:00] How did your father's generational trauma show up in your childhood? Your mother's? [24:00] How did your generational trauma start manifesting as a teenager? [29:40] What pulled you into observer mode so that you could see the unconscious way you were living? [37:25] How did you move into the work you're doing now? [45:00] What is Rythmia and how did it affect you? [52:20] How are you using all of the experiences that led up to now, good and bad? [1:02:40] Tell us about BTFA (Belief, Thought, Feeling, Action).

This week Ben brings Rythmia Life Advancement Center's Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Jeff McNairy, Psy.D., M.P.H. onto the show.  Jeff has been working in the health care field for 25 years. He has worked in a variety of medical environments and seen the struggle individuals have when actually trying to heal. The current Western system of heath care is deficient in healing the population. It is more concerned with managing symptoms and using external sources for “change.” Through Dr. McNairy's intense experience with the most desperate patient populations (addiction, acute mental health, and trauma), he has seen that the only real healing can come from within.Rythmia: https://rythmia.com Website:https://www.jeffmcnairy.com/ Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/rythmia_/https://www.instagram.com/drjeffmcnairy/Press:https://finance.yahoo.com/news/rythmia-points-societys-plant-medicine-160000005.htmlhttps://onken.co/dr-jeff-mcnairy-plant-medicine/Book a trip to Rythmia October 9th - 16th hosted by Ben Decker:https://rythmia.link/deckerevent Ben Decker, The Unplug App & The Modern Spirituality Podcast in The New York Times: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/03/30/well/guided-meditations.html Develop Your Meditation Practice with books by Ben Decker: Modern Spirituality: A Guide to the Heart of Mindfulness, Meditation, and the Art of Healing https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1647398150/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tpbk_p1_i2 Practical Meditation for Beginners: 10 Days to a Happier, Calmer Youhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1641520256/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tpbk_p1_i0 Daily Mindfulness: 365 Exercises to Deepen Your Practice and Find Peacehttps://www.amazon.com/Daily-Mindfulness-Exercises-Deepen-Practice/dp/164739192X/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= Meditations on Christ: A 5-Minute Guided Journal for Christianshttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1646118065/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tpbk_p1_i3Affiliate of The Modern Spirituality Podcast:

Join host Ben Decker in a metaphysical conversation with friend Marianne Williamson. Marianne is best known for her 13+ bestselling books, and her 2020 campaign for president. She was the first ever spiritual teacher to make it to the televised Democratic Presidential Debates, and was the most Googled candidate after the second debates. Marianne initiated a global about face, as the intriguing freshness of her candidacy resulted in millions of people being exposed to a deeper, more spiritual and heart-centered approach to politics.In this episode, hear Ben share his unique understanding of the importance of Marianne's role in today's mainstream society, even going so far as to refer to Marianne as an "avatar, synthesizing spirituality and politics." While Marianne did not accept this assertion, she says that "an avatar is someone who has gotten there 24/7, and I haven't gotten there 24/7." Ben replied, "I don't need you to get it right 24/7, I just need you to get it right when it matters. You get it right when it matters.”Receive inspiration from Marianne's sage wisdom; especially on claiming one's power and ushering in a new  political and spiritual era. Marianne Williamson is a bestselling author, political activist and spiritual thought leader.For over three decades Marianne has been a leader in spiritual and religiously progressive circles. She is the author of 14 books, four of which have been #1 New York Times best sellers. A quote from the mega best seller A Return to Love, “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure…” is considered an anthem for a contemporary generation of seekers.Williamson founded Project Angel Food, a non-profit that has delivered more than 13 million meals to ill and dying homebound patients since 1989. The group was created to help people suffering from the ravages of HIV/AIDS. She has also worked throughout her career on poverty, anti-hunger and racial reconciliation issues. In 2004, she co-founded The Peace Alliance and supports the creation of a U.S. Department of Peace.

Spiritually Transformative Experiences can come in a number of different forms: near death experiences, psychedelic visions, alien abductions, and ceremonial ordinance or initiatory ritual. They can also take the form of a traumatic event or spontaneous realization. When we have the opportunity to consciously prepare ourselves, we are of course much better off. But what about the times when we don't have the preparation necessary?Integration is the phase that happens immediately following the Spiritually Transformative Experience. This is perhaps the most crucial phase. If we don't effectively integrate our experience, at best, the experience ends up meaning very little for us - and at worst, it can actually serve as something that takes us further away from our true path, our higher nature, and our purpose.For the last ten years, Ben Decker has been supporting clients and students in the preparation, facilitation, and integration of spiritually transformative experiences. Even before that, as a teen, Ben had his first formal initiation into metaphysics through training as a Shamanic Reiki Practitioner, Healer, and Master. Today, he is a 3rd Degree Shamanic Reiki Master and offering his first ever Shamanic Reiki Transmission to the public. Listen as he further explains the two lineages of Shamanism and Reiki, and how they correlate to support the effective development of psychic abilities, intuition, and the ability to cultivate and direct life force energy for healing on multiple levels.Learn why he has taken so long to come out publicly about his work with the Amazonian shaman who changed his life, and the 70+ ayahuasca plant medicine ceremonies that have amplified his gifts as a healer, and initiated him into great natural and cosmic wisdom.Explore how you can develop your own abilities as a healer to heal yourself, make sense of your past, integrate your experiences, and become a part of the great spiritual awakening (and healing) sweeping the globe.Show Notes:Shamanic Reiki TherapyDevelop your intuition, learn to interpret the meaning behind your dreams, heal yourself, and others by joining Decker's community of Shamanic Reiki Practitioners.

A spiritual awakening  is an experience that opens our hearts and minds to a radically different way of engaging with the world. Spiritual awakenings often result in major life changes; like relationships ending (or new ones beginning), moving to a new city, leaving a job in pursuit of something more authentic, letting go of old vices or addictions, the experiment and implementation of new practices like yoga, prayer, and meditation.In this episode, host Ben Decker is joined by best-selling author and spiritual advisor Sah D'Simone. Sah and Ben first came into contact early in both of their careers as meditation teachers. Later, their first books were published by the same publishers. For those of you already familiar with the work of this radical spiritual guide, you may be surprised to learn of the unexpected professional background that set the stage for his spiritual awakening. Before Sah became the internationally recognized transformational speaker that he is today, he was the Creative Director for widely known fashion magazine, producing photoshoots with some of today's biggest entertainment industry celebrities. Hear about Sah's spiritual awakening, taking refuge in the Buddha through Vajrayana Buddhism, his encounter with the Dalai Lama, and the journey that brought him out of depression and anxiety, and into liberation and joy.  Be inspired by Sah's journey of forgiveness (of self and other), and the surprising nuances between shame, guilt, and remorse. You'll also get to hear about Sah's newest tattoo.Learn also the parallel Ben Decker has drawn between to The Three Jewels of Buddhism: the Buddha, the dharma, and the sangha; and three keys to Christianity: the Christ, the gospel, and the church. Explore how this comparison can deepen one's understanding of the other, in relationship to one another. In his book, Modern Spirituality, Ben draws yet another parallel for The Three Jewels of Buddhism, and removes religious context altogether. He posits that for the optimal results of ongoing spiritual development, the modern spiritual practitioner should apply the three aspects of modern spirituality, inspired by these three jewels. These three aspects of modern spirituality will be expanded upon in Episode 5: The Three Jewels of Modern Spirituality.Show Notes:Chopra Global Certifications with Deepak ChopraBecome a  Meditation Teacher or an Ayurvedic Health Coach with a prestigious  certification through Deepak Chopra's Chopra Global at Chopra.com/certifications.TRANSFORM with Marianne Williamson Become part of the global spiritual political awakening by subscribing to the new Substack newsletter with spiritual teacher and political activist Marianne Williamson.
