    Luke Jensen S3E113

    Luke Jensen is a veteran, neuroscience researcher, and plant medicine practitioner. Returning disenchanted and lost after a deployment to Afghanistan, Jensen shares how his search for healing led to him living in Peru’s beautiful Sacred Valley and now offering retreats rooted in indigenous spiritual wisdom, the healing properties of ayahuasca and other plant medicines, and the modern science of brain mapping and neurofeedback. Luke Jensen lives and works at the intersection of neuroscience, anthropology, and the mystical realm of plant medicines. A veteran of the Marine Corps and National Guard, Jensen experienced PTSD and other negative consequences from his deployment to Afghanistan. In 2014, Jensen began to find healing in the Amazon basin learning about shamanic spiritual practices, indigenous wisdom, and the healing properties of ayahuasca and other plant medicines. In collaboration with his mentor, Dr. Richard Soutar, Jensen began field research in Peru of the effects of ritual practice and plant medicines using neurofeedback and QEEG brain mapping resulting in two published academic papers. Through his organization, Tiwaz Awakening, Jensen now offers healing retreats in the Peruvian Sacred Valley that combine the healing properties of plant medicine, the embodied practice of Brazilian jui jitsu, and the modern technology of QEEG brain mapping and neurofeedback. These retreats are the subject of a new documentary, “Crossed Paths: Ancient Wisdom and Modern Science.”
