In this episode, CJ welcomes artist, musician, and spiritual creator Ariel Basso, whose entire life is devoted to following the breadcrumbs of Spirit. Ariel lives nomadically, led by inner guidance and a mission to create sacred, healing spaces through art, sound, and vibration. From painting symbolic language to playing ancient wind instruments like the didgeridoo, Ariel’s work becomes a living dialogue with the Divine.
He shares his transformative journey from grief and depression to a powerful spiritual awakening in his teens, which launched a “spiritual boot camp” of meditation, prayer, stretching, and journaling. That period gave birth to his lifelong vow: to create only what celebrates unity and Spirit.
Ariel discusses his show at Northwood Art & Music House, his philosophy of vibrational sound therapy, and how circles in ancient mysticism have shaped his meditative art practice. He and CJ explore themes of joy, creative flow, and listening to Creative Intelligence in the moment—whether painting, performing, or simply breathing.
Whether you're an artist, a seeker, or someone longing to reconnect with sacred expression, this conversation is an invitation to listen deeply, create bravely, and walk your own path guided by Spirit.
