John Bright is a Princeton graduate and longtime leader in the Transcendental Meditation movement who spent decades studying under Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. In 1972 he became the first administrative vice president of Maharishi International University, and later that year traveled to the Middle East, where he opened the first TM centers in Lebanon, Jordan, and Egypt. His academic specialty is the analysis of Maharishi’s new translation and commentary on the Bhagavad-Gita as a contemporary template for healing, human development, and leadership. He has led Bhagavad-Gita study groups for over 40 years around the world.

In our conversation, John breaks down the exact mechanisms by which transcendental states trigger physiological upgrades. Why our body must physically transform before higher consciousness can stabilize. He has witnessed thousands of people undergo profound physiological transformations through TM practice.

From stress hormones normalizing to brain coherence increasing to spontaneous healing responses and how consciousness doesn't just change our mind but also upgrades our entire biological operating system.

Dr. Dave Rabin is a neuroscientist, board-certified psychiatrist, and health tech entrepreneur who has revolutionized our understanding of how specific vibration patterns can rewire the nervous system to eliminate anxiety, PTSD, and depression. As the co-founder and CEO of Apollo Neuro, he's conducted 17 clinical studies across over 2,000 subjects showing that therapeutic vibrations can induce the same healing states as psychedelic medicine for mental illness.

His research began in 2014 studying chronic stress and trauma in veterans at the University of Pittsburgh led to a breakthrough discovery that vibrations could replicate the safety-inducing effects of MDMA therapy.

I was excited to have Dr. Rabin on because I've been fascinated by frequency-based healing modalities for years. I wanted to understand the actual science behind why vibration seems to have such profound effects on our wellbeing.

What struck me most about this conversation was how Dr. Rabin has managed to take something as esoteric as vibrational healing and ground it in rigorous scientific methodology.

Terri O'Fallon is a former student of integral theorist Ken Wilber and ego development pioneer Susanne Cook-Greuter and the founder of the groundbreaking Stages International Model Of Human Development.

The STAGES model has a comprehensive framework with 12 distinct stages and 6 different kinds of perspectives for understanding the evolution of human consciousness. The primary utility in this model (and others) is that they provide structural definitions that map how awareness evolves through predictable patterns. The more we understand the patterns, the better we can place ourself and understand the terrain.

In this conversation, Terri offers a structural roadmap that helps us understand exactly where we are, where we're going, and why transformation can feel so disorienting…

Eileen McKusick is a researcher, author, educator, and bioelectrician who pioneered Biofield Tuning. A therapeutic method that uses tuning forks to detect and correct distortions in the human body's electrical system.

Since her first experiences with tuning forks in 1996, she's developed a comprehensive map of the biofield through hands-on clinical work and academic research including a master's thesis on this subject between 2010-2012.

I was excited to dive into this conversation with Eileen because I've become increasingly interested in energy medicine and the electromagnetic nature of our bodies. While these concepts are starting to gain more mainstream acceptance, there's still so much to learn about how we can work with the body's electrical system for healing.
