Will had the perfect life. Good job. A pension waiting. A future he could see coming a year out. So why couldn't he shake the feeling that it wasn't enough?

This episode follows a man who walked away from the sure thing — and went looking for answers in some unlikely places. Years of deep meditation. A week in the Amazon drinking ayahuasca with a Shipibo shaman. A voice in the dark that seemed to know him better than he knew himself.

What he found changed what he believes about his life, about death, and about what's real.

It's not religious. It's not preachy. It's a story — about the comfortable life as a kind of cage, and what it takes to step out of it.

In this one: altered states of consciousness, ayahuasca, DMT, deep meditation, the strange science of the brain, and the one quiet belief that keeps most of us small.

Will teaches altered-states meditation at mind-beyond-matter.com.

Here's the question I'll leave you with: Where in your life have you decided the story is finished… when the truth is, you've just stopped asking?

If something in here moves you, follow the show and pass it to one person who needs it.

The most dangerous thing is a made-up mind.
