I’m delighted to offer you an interview with a beautiful multidisciplinary artist, producer, and ceremony guide, East Forest. He has just released "Music for Mushrooms," a feature-length narrative documentary showcasing the transformative power of psychedelics, music, and community. 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.
East Forest’s approach promotes non-religious, accessible spirituality. He's a faculty member at the Esalen Institute and has collaborated with institutions across social justice, mental health, science, music, and creative fields, including Google, Johns Hopkins, UCSF, Stanford, and TED.
In this episode, we discuss the power of music and mushrooms in the process of maturation and evolving as human beings. We also invite you to sign up and watch “Music for Mushrooms” online on December 12th, as well as to listen to the” Official Documentary Soundtrack” on your favorite streaming platform.
What is Covered:
- East Forest’s background as an artist and consciousness explorer
- Building spiritual resilience at the time of collapse and learning to sit with uncomfort
- The story behind the creation of the “Music for Mushrooms” documentary
- The transformational power of music as a bridge to higher consciousness space
- Why the potential of music has been overlooked today when it’s all-present everywhere
- East Forests relationship with psychedelics and what he has learned from it
- Being in the driver’s seat as opposed to surrendering to the flow of life
- When and where you can see “Music for Mushrooms”

Currently, I’m going through a major transition in life. My old world is in the process of dissolving and completing, while simultaneously birthing the new one. In this phase of in-between, we are still with one foot in the old world that no longer fits, and one foot in the new world and the future. The experience is uncomfortable and awkward, but it is one that all of us have to go through multiple times during our lifetime.
So in this episode, I’m going to unpack a little this state of in-between, why it is necessary in order to create a new future, what learning and awareness we can gain from it, and how we can get closer to honesty and alignment with the truth of our heart.
What is Covered:
-The transition that is currently happening in my life
-Why the in-between phase is the only way to create new reality
-The necessary work of completion of the old before we fully step into the new
-Why is it that we don’t tell ourselves the truth?
-The power of the survival mind and why we perceive freedom as threatening
-Understanding the heart as the home to truth
-The process of maturing from the original heartbreak to returning to the heart
-A journaling exercise to explore your untold truths

The quality of communication is a fundamentally important piece to having nourishing, safe, conscious and present relationships. Whether that is in love, in friendships, with family members, co-workers or teachers, the quality of our relationships is what brings us the most fulfilment in life.
But why is it that we struggle so much with relationships? And why is communication the number one problem in failing relationships, a piece that breaks down trust, intimacy and connection?
Let's dedicate this episode to the power of communication. We're going to dive deep into conscious listening, conscious speaking, and how we can get better at it to allow ourselves to experience more love, more compassion, connection and peace in our relationships.
What is Covered:
-What we are doing when we are communicating
-The most common problems we experience in our relationships
-Why most people have no idea how to listen to another person
-How our past experiences shape what we hear when we’re listening
-What conscious, present listening is
-What makes us say what we say when we are speaking
-A journaling exercise to help you bring more consciousness to your listening and speaking patterns

I cannot tell you how many people say to me:
“I'm ready for divine love. Why do I keep ending up in relationships that are disappointing, with people who betray me, are narcissists, don't see me, where I feel unloved and unwanted? Why do I keep repeating the same old stuff no matter what I do, when I'm so ready for my divine love?”
And my answer to that declaration is, are you REALLY ready? In this episode, we’re going to dive into the source of patterns that keep repeating in our relationships. And we’re going to learn why taking 100% responsibility for our complaints is the only way that will bring us closer to the love we seek.
What is Covered:
-Recognising the familiar repeating complaints in our relationships
-Recognising the common element of all the complaints
-Why we so often identify with our suffering and pain
-What happens when we take 100% responsibility for our repeating patterns
-How to overcome the fear of detaching from our patterns
-Journaling prompts to help you work through your relationship patterns

Today, I’m going to share with you all about my journey with my body transformation. Since October last year to today, I have lost almost 40 pounds, and I am only 5’3”, so that’s a lot of weight that I was carrying as a very small Asian woman.
Although I have worked really intentionally to get here, I’ve hesitated to share this story. One of the reasons is because I don't want to feed any part of the human psyche that obsesses with external perfection, believing that if we achieve it, then we'll finally be free of the unworthiness that we feel. I also don't want to say that the solution to that is to just put on loads of weight and tell ourselves that we're still lovable and worthwhile, and that we don't need to shape ourselves.
I actually want to go way deeper into this story and share, from an ontological context, how and why I got overweight in the first place, and what kind of transformation has taken place in order to release that weight and everything that I carried with it.
What is Covered:
-How I got 40 pounds overweight
-The connection between our external and internal shape
-What kind of emotional weight our external weight may be hiding
-Why my weight persisted even though I ate healthy and exercised regularly
-The events that led me onto the journey of my body transformation
-The moment when the weight actually started dropping off my body
-How releasing the weight created more space for love and light to enter my BodyMind

The level of chaos on our planet right now is extreme. There are intense levels of chaos happening between countries, between political parties, between religions, between parents and their children. And let's not forget the chaos that is happening inside our own selves.
So chaos is very prevalent, but is somehow eradicating it from our lives the only way we can have peace? Or if we are addicted to chaos, can we feel alive at all without it? In this episode, I want to talk about how we can transcend our current old paradigm of relationship to chaos, so that we don't have to live a life free of chaos, but that we can be with chaos and be free.
What is Covered:
-Why chaos is perceived as a threat to our survival
-Examples of childhood experiences that can affect our relationship to chaos
-Why we are not equipped to have an empowered relationship to chaos
-Why chaos on our planet is increasing
-How the Earth’s electromagnetic field affects what is happening internally in our BodyMind
-How we can transcend the increasing chaos externally and internally

Today, we’re going to dive into identity politics. And if you are in the US, you cannot deny that it is happening everywhere in the political landscape. But what I want to do is blow up that whole system altogether and look at what's keeping us trapped in the same familiar form of suffering no matter what side we choose.
Currently on our planet, the different worldviews that we identify with are so rampant in the battles we are fighting against each other. In fact, we are currently in a war - the war on the human mind. What’s winning that war is not the “right” viewpoint, but the fact that we as a species don't realise that we are trapped in a particular set of blindspots. So that’s what I’m going to unpack in today’s episode, and invite you to feel more compassion for yourself and someone else who is of a different self-worldview than you.
What is Covered:
-The essence of identity politics and why they keep us trapped
-Is there the “right” belief and the “right” viewpoint?
-Why nothing seems to be changing no matter which worldview we choose
-The blindspots that keep us trapped in the paradox of identity politics
-Paul Levy’s teachings in “The Quantum Revelation”
-What self-worldview is and why we can’t see our own context
-How we can be manipulated if we are not conscious of identity mechanisms
-Why we feel so threatened when our worldview is challenged
-How we can start gaining more consciousness, more power and cultivate more compassion towards different self-worldviews

When we are experiencing challenges in our lives, whether it’s with health, or relationships, or just what is true for us, one thing to consider is asking ourselves where we can be responsible. When we are stuck in pain and suffering, are we blaming someone else for our experience, or are we ready to learn and grow and mature from it? Because the hard part to understand is that we actually get to choose how our reality appears to us.
In this episode, we’re going to first dive into this attachment to suffering, and explore what we are magnetising and emanating right now. We’re going to look into the things that keep repeating in our lives, bringing consciousness to what we are actually emanating, in order to arrive at what we want to be emanating.
What is Covered:
-Why we tend to be so addicted to pain and suffering
-The split way of being and our oscillating between opposing desires
-How to be honest with ourselves without blame, shame and guilt
-How the world that we are seeing is created moment by moment
-Understanding emanation and what you are emanating right now
-Journaling exercise: what do you want to be emanating?

Whether they are running their own business or working in a company, one of the hardest pieces that I see people struggling with is their relationship to their work.
So, we either love our job, but we burn out doing it. Or we feel pressured in it - we love it, but it also makes us feel trapped. Or we work in jobs where we feel unfulfilled, or we find ourselves repeating the same patterns in jobs, no matter how many times we change jobs or change industries, or change our behaviours when it comes to running our own businesses.
It seems like the way that we're in relationship with business and work has a familiarity to how we are in relationship with ourselves. So I want to use this episode to dive into our relationship with business and work from an ontological context.
What is Covered:
-The connection between the way we are in our work and our original family dynamic
-Why we seem to always end up in the same job and the same team regardless of the company or the industry
-How our mind as a pattern recognition device acts in work environment
-Why we can’t recognise our parents in our bosses and coworkers
-How to begin solving the repeating work patterns
-Journaling question: what is your biggest struggle in work at this moment? How familiar is that to your original family dynamics?

But today I want to take the conversation around boundaries a little deeper.

-Boundaries and self-awareness
-How to honour and take action on our boundaries
-Why we don’t set boundaries and what happens then

Surrender and let go - that’s what we hear all the time nowadays. But how do we fully surrender? What does it even mean to surrender? And why is that such a profound and important piece of our ability to outgrow, mature and heal?
I feel like my whole life and my personal journey of maturation has been dedicated to asking this question, how to surrender. I even wrote a book about this subject. So in this episode, I’m going to dive deep into the topic of surrendering, why it is important and how we can start going through this process.
What is Covered:
-The story of how I wrote a book about surrender
-My first experience with what it means to fully surrender
-The definition of full surrender
-Consciousness and alignment in surrender
-How to loosen the grip of survival mechanisms and why surrender is a counterintuitive act
-Two choices that we have each time we come to a crossroad in life
-A journaling exercise to help you bring awareness to the things you’re holding on to that may no longer serve you

If you feel like you're too fat, too skinny, too dumb, too smart, whatever it is, do you notice that there is always the other that is the right one? Or when you're clinging on to your reality and your perception being the right way, that there is always ‘the other’ that is the wrong way?
This episode focuses on the mentality of ‘the other, and the right and wrong mentality which is inherent on our planet. This mentality causes enormous pain in relationships, in families, between friends, between bosses and employees, as well as between different sections of society and different countries.
When there is a “someone”, there is always “the other”. You cannot have one without the other. So in this episode, we’re going to start dissolving “the other” mentality and point the way of healing the split and coming home to the state of wholeness.
What is Covered:
-The construct of ‘the other’ and how it creates horrific violence on our planet
-Why this construct is an unsolvable vicious circle
-The stages of human development and how the split between “me” and “the other” is created
-The pain and consequences of “the other” mentality
-How to start resolving this right and wrong mentality

Today's episode is about the distinction between fantasy and creation. We will dive into what fantasy is so that we can start to see it with new awareness, because awareness is what heals and allows the process of maturation to take place.
Fantasy feeds from the human condition. The current paradigm in the world that we're in also feeds our fantasy in a continuous vicious cycle. Part of what is keeping us all stuck in a state of suffering is that hopefulness of fantasy, that one day when we get somewhere, then we will finally be free from whatever we’re struggling with right now. But the problem is that it never really happens. So today we’ll explore why that is and how we can start turning fantasy into creation.
What is Covered:
-Why fantasy is like a drug
-Getting high on fantasy vs being empowered in the present
-Why so many relationships are founded in fantasy
-Fantasy as a reaction to the past
-The hopefulness of fantasy vs creating in the present moment
-What is the alternative to fantasy
-What is creation and how to create the future
-Journaling exercise to explore your fantasies

Are you one of those people that has watched yourself sabotage something that you know you want, and yet something in you is blocking it or even actively pushing it away? Why is it that when you finally receive the love, the nourishment, the care, the fulfilment, the success, the money, the attention, the connection that you want, having it is so threatening that before you know it, you're finding whatever way you can find to get rid of it? It doesn't make any logical sense to reject a beautiful opportunity, but you still say no. And you're watching yourself and you know what you're doing, but you can't stop it.
Why is sabotage so common in human beings, and why is it a cause of so much of our pain and suffering? And what could possibly be a solution to that? This is what we’re going to dive into in this episode.
What is Covered:
-How we normalise the pattern of sabotage in our lives
-Why sabotage is a blind spot and why we can’t stop it
-Survival vs. living and why we remain stuck in survival
-Looking at the pain and shame of sabotage from an ontological perspective
-What’s the alternative to sabotage
-Are you living to win or are you living to not lose?

I'm sure that this is not the first time you are hearing the word vulnerability. But most of the time, I don't think many of us know what it even really means, and how powerful and sacred vulnerability is.
Vulnerability is not just an emotion or a state of being, it is actually a gateway, a doorway into being able to connect with each other deeper. It is a space within the heart, within the space of consciousness and truth of human beings that allows us to connect universally with each other, with ourselves and with the present moment - all of which I believe is a universal longing and want.
So how do we go from the head into the heart to experience the state of sacred vulnerability?

This week’s topic is not an easy one. First, because it’s a significant blindspot to how we experience reality itself, how we experience ourselves and each other. And second, because it’s the root to some of our greatest attachments in survival, so it may bring up a lot of activation for you.
So we’re talking about the greatest human addiction of all - the human story. We human beings are storytelling animals, and the mind itself is a storytelling mechanism. These stories not only define how we think and know of ourselves, but they literally colour and give us our entire experience of our reality, the stories of our family, of our ancestors, of our countries, of love. So let’s unpack this great human drug that are the stories that run us.
What is Covered:
-Why we need stories and how they are connected to our survival
-How our attachment to stories block our longing for connection with others
-Whose stories are running us and how we absorb them
-Identification with stories and the illusion of identity
-The alternative to holding on the stories and why we avoid it
-The stories of countries and how they create our shared reality
-Why we can compare stories to drugs
-How we can begin to come out of this blindspot

This week, I want to dive deeper into blindspots and explore how blindspots actually blind us. I’ll talk about how blindspots work and how they colour the appearing reality that we get. And then I’ll discuss why that is such a significant dilemma to the human species, and why we are stuck in our blindspots.
In previous episodes, I talked about what blinspots are - a way of seeing or a context from where we are seeing, that colours how we see and that we don't even know that we don't know that we don't know! So we don't know we have a blindspot until the very moment the blindspot reveals itself. So how do we become conscious of our blindspots and how do they stop blinding us?
What is Covered:
-Why blindspots are so powerful in colouring our reality
-How we can perceive and dissolve our blindspots
-Jean Piaget and his research of blindspots in child brain development
-Blindspots that are consistent to the entire human species
-Why we keep repeating the same patterns and cycles
-How blindspots work in our perception of reality
-Why blindspots are such a big dilemma for the whole world
-How a different and more mature world can look like
