Luke Jenson

In the heart of the Sacred Valley of Peru, where the ancient meets the cutting edge, a new frontier of understanding is emerging. Luke Jensen stands at the intersection of neuroscience, anthropology, and the mystical realm of plant medicines. As a neurofeedback practitioner and researcher, Luke has embarked on a groundbreaking journey to map the human brain during one of the most profound spiritual experiences—the use of Huachuma, or San Pedro.

For the first time in history, Luke’s work captures the brain’s enigmatic dance through EEG and QEEG imaging before, during, and after encounters with this sacred cactus. His research not only pushes the boundaries of neuroscience but also ventures into the depths of human consciousness, trauma, and the soul itself.

Luke’s work reveals a fascinating paradox: while every brain responds differently to plant medicines, they all seem to heal and move toward balance, as if guided by an unseen hand. With inspiration from his mentor, Dr. Richard Soutar, and an unwavering curiosity about the mysteries of the mind, Luke is helping to uncover how plant medicines transform the brain and perhaps even the essence of what it means to be human.

Today, we dive into the questions his work raises: How does trauma store itself in the brain? What happens when plant medicines begin to heal these wounds? And what can this research teach us about consciousness itself? It’s a privilege to welcome Luke Jensen, a pioneer at the edge of science and spirit, to the show.

🎙️🎙️🎙️Oli Genn-Bash

Aloha and welcome to a conversation that promises to weave together threads of science, philosophy, and the profound mystery of nature. Today, we’re joined by Oli Gen-Bash—a pioneer in the intersection of human consciousness and the enigmatic world of fungi and plants. With a deep-rooted passion for psychedelic exploration, Oli has not only spoken at groundbreaking events like Breaking Convention and Product Earth, but also cultivated a community of curiosity and collaboration as the Founder of The Fungi Consultant and Head of Mycology at Product Earth.

A politics postgraduate with a focus on philosophy, mysticism, and critical thinking, Oli approaches the complexities of human experience with the precision of an analyst and the creativity of a musician. As the co-founder of the University of Kent Canterbury Psychedelics Society—now the longest-running student psychedelic society in the UK—he has helped catalyze a movement of open inquiry and connection, even hosting the inaugural Breaking Convention conference in 2011.

Oli’s fascination with mycelium is no mere metaphor; he embodies its principles of interconnection and resource-sharing, bridging diverse perspectives to inspire collaboration and empowerment. Whether he’s exploring the symbiotic relationship between humans and nature, or harmonizing the realms of politics and mysticism, Oli brings a rare blend of analytical rigor and creative innovation to every endeavor.

Prepare yourself for a dialogue that traverses the fertile ground where nature, philosophy, and consciousness converge. Let’s dive into the mycelial network of ideas with Oli Gen-Bash.
