How can just a handful of people create massive healing in the world? In this episode of BHAS, I sit down with Kevin Owens, one of my best friends and a facilitator at Sowa Charana, as he takes us behind the scenes of ayahuasca and plant medicine retreats to reveal the extraordinary ways personal transformation can ripple out to others.From facing your deepest fears to releasing trapped emotions, Kevin explains why the work done on yourself doesn’t just change your life—it can inspire and heal thousands around you. Dive into the mystery of Icaros (ceremonial songs), purges, and the unseen energetic exchanges that make plant medicine work so profound.What we explore in this episode:- How personal healing becomes a “positive healing virus” that spreads to others.- The power of Icaros: how songs in ayahuasca ceremonies remove negative energies and bring healing.- Why purges—vomiting, crying, laughing, yawning—are essential for energetic release.- The healer as a vessel: how energy flows through songs and mantras instead of being fully controlled.- How energy can transfer between participants, and what it teaches us about ourselves.- Group dynamics in ceremonies: why different people work on different emotions at the same time.- The purpose of plain, simple foods during plant diets: no salt, sugar, or spices for physical and energetic preparation.- How diet, ceremony, and community create a safe space for profound transformation.- Kevin’s reflections on his own healing journey and the wisdom he continues to gain while guiding others.Whether you’re curious about ayahuasca, spiritual growth, or the ways energy and intention shape our lives, this conversation is a deep dive into the unseen forces of healing.If you want to work with Kevin and experience ayahuasca for yourself, check out:https://sowacharana.com/https://www.instagram.com/sowacharana/

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
