    226: The Power of Music in Psychedelic Journeys with East Forest

    In this transformative episode, we dive deep into the healing power of music in psychedelic journeys with renowned musician and sound healer East Forest. For centuries, music has been a key component in spiritual rituals and ceremonies, serving as a guide to unlock deeper emotional, mental, and even mystical experiences. But when it comes to psychedelic therapy, the role of music becomes even more profound. East Forest, known for his meditative and therapeutic soundscapes, shares his insights on how music can shape, support, and enhance the psychedelic experience. Drawing from his years of experience working with plant medicine ceremonies, he explains how the right frequencies and melodies can help individuals navigate the unpredictable nature of altered states of consciousness. His work, which blends ethereal soundscapes, binaural beats, and indigenous-inspired rhythms, offers a grounding yet expansive soundtrack that can be both a refuge and a mirror during challenging moments of a psychedelic journey. During the conversation, we explore how music can deepen emotional processing, open pathways to hidden memories, and facilitate states of surrender, allowing individuals to let go of their ego-driven defenses. Music, East Forest explains, acts as a bridge between the conscious mind and the deeper realms of the psyche, helping participants access insights and healing that might otherwise be inaccessible. The discussion delves into the importance of intentionality when choosing music for psychedelic therapy and how certain tones and instruments resonate with specific chakras, influencing energy flow and emotional release. East Forest also touches on the psychological and neurological impact of music in these expanded states of awareness. The role of rhythm, harmony, and silence are discussed as essential tools for guiding the psychedelic process. The importance of ceremonial intention and presence, along with the power of surrender to the flow of sound, are highlighted as keys to fully benefiting from the experience. Listeners will gain a better understanding of how carefully curated music can act as a guide, amplifying the therapeutic potential of a psychedelic journey. East Forest offers personal stories from his own experiences and collaborations with others in the field, discussing the mystical and scientific aspects of sound healing. Whether you’re a seasoned psychonaut, a curious explorer, or someone interested in the intersection of sound therapy and psychedelics, this episode will inspire a deeper appreciation for the role of music in healing. Tune in as East Forest shares his wisdom on the alchemy of sound and psychedelics, offering a fresh perspective on how music can lead us into altered states of consciousness, self-discovery, and emotional healing. Join us for a mesmerizing journey through sound, where music becomes not just background noise but an active, transformative force in your psychedelic experience.

    225: Shaping Reality: The Impact of Body-Mind Maturation on Your Identity

    "A real master knows that we're always a student and we're always learning and you'll never there, whatever there is." In this episode of the Onkens World Podcast, I am thrilled to welcome Nicky Clinch, a master maturation coach with over 16 years of experience in training and facilitating body-mind maturation. We dive deep into the concept of body-mind maturation, a unique body of knowledge that Nikki has developed, which emphasizes the importance of maturation over mere transformation. Nicky explains that while transformation suggests a sudden change into a new version of oneself, maturation is a continuous process of outgrowing old identities and ways of being. This process is essential for our evolution as human beings, and it is intricately linked to ontology, the science and nature of being. We discuss how our experiences shape our identities and how many of us are trapped in repetitive patterns of suffering due to our unawareness of these mechanisms. Throughout our conversation, Nicky shares her personal journey from a troubled past marked by addiction and bulimia to becoming a coach dedicated to helping others. She emphasizes that true healing and change come from understanding the deeper roots of our suffering and recognizing the universal structures that govern our experiences as human beings. We also explore the concept of identity, particularly how it is formed during childhood and how it can become a blind spot that limits our perception of ourselves. Nicky highlights the importance of consciousness and self-responsibility in breaking free from these limitations. She provides insights into how we can begin to recognize and address our blind spots, especially when we find ourselves in spirals of negative thought patterns. As we shift the conversation towards business, Nicky discusses how body-mind maturation principles apply to entrepreneurship. She explains that our businesses are reflections of our inner worlds and that the challenges we face in our professional lives often mirror our personal struggles. By taking ownership of our experiences and understanding the resonance we emit, we can create more authentic and successful businesses. Nicky shares her own transformative journey over the past year, including significant shifts in her health and business. She candidly discusses the impact of shedding physical weight as a manifestation of her internal changes and how this has led to greater success and fulfillment in her work. This episode is a profound exploration of the interconnectedness of our inner and outer worlds, the importance of maturation in our personal and professional lives, and the power of consciousness in creating meaningful change. Join us for this enlightening conversation that challenges conventional notions of identity and transformation, offering a fresh perspective on personal growth and business success.
