Sky LifeIn this video, my brother Zane and I hang out with the healthiest old people in America and learn their secrets to longevity.
In Loma Linda, California residents live about a decade longer than the average American and are staying vibrant and healthy into their 80s, 90s, and even 100s.
This anomaly of an American city is home to a large number of centenarians or people who live to be over 100 years old.
Loma Linda is one of five Blue Zones in the entire world and the only one in North America. A Blue Zone is an area of the world where residents live much longer than the average human and also seem to stay fit and healthy into old age, avoiding the typical diseases that have become leading causes of disease. The other Blue Zones are Nicoya, Costa Rica, Sardinia, Italy, Ikaria, Greece, and Okinawa, Japan.
The majority of residents in Loma Linda are Seventh Day Adventists, a Christian religion that believes in specific healthy lifestyle practices. Researchers believe this may be a key contributing factor to Loma Linda's increased health and longevity.

In this video, I spend the day with a real life fairy named Mint. Mint has been communicating with fairies, more traditionally known as "the fae," since she was a little girl. For 24 hours, I immerse myself in Mint’s fairy world to gain a better understanding of her reality and perspective and to learn more about the fae. We also go to a chakra vortex to open a fairy portal and Mint is able to see and communicate with the faery spirits.
Although I may have had a hard time wrapping my logical brain around this concept of communicating with fairies, I deeply appreciated Mint’s view of reality and her magical wonder and way of seeing the world. I find it so beautiful and feel grateful to have spent time with her.

In this video, I spend 24 hours with the real life Peter Pan and the Lost Boys. The Garden is an off-grid intentional community in Tennessee focused on egalitarian values, sustainable living, permaculture, and Earth stewardship. The Garden has created their own little version of Neverland, where those who live a nomadic lifestyle without money can come to land.
A few years ago, the Garden was at the center of a controversy that began on TikTok. Residents from the Garden were posting about their off-grid sustainable community and inviting anyone and everyone to come and see it, even posting their address publicly with an open-door policy. But after gaining lots of tractions and going viral with their posts, they were viciously attacked and labeled a “dangerous cult” with Tree himself accused of being the cult leader.
But I’ve gotten to know Tree and his partner Julia over the past few years, and I think that TikTok may have got it all wrong. So I am going to the Garden to spend time with real life Peter Pan & the Lost Boys to experience this community for myself.

In this video, I visit the Damanhur Federation's center in Boulder, Colorado, a very interesting community living in the mountains and practicing all sorts of magic, metaphysics, rituals, and spirituality. They believe that they are able to communicate with nature and plants and have developed a device that channels the vibratory frequency of the plant’s root system and cellular water structure into sound. They believe this device allows plants to sing!
They give me a little tour of the land, and then we dive deep into the music of the plants device, how it works, the research that has been done so far on this that shows how the music of the plants can actually reduce pain and increase white blood cells, and I get to experience a delicious sound healing with the plant music.

In this video, I spend a week in Scotland living in a magical enchanted castle learning real witchcraft from Mia Magik. Mia Magik is a real witch with more than a decade of experience studying real witchcraft, “magik” and various healing modalities.
Throughout the week, Mia guided us through a range of practices and deeply healing rituals including a fire ceremony, rage ritual, self-love ritual, and mirror ritual. During one particular ritual, I experienced a profound release and powerful healing. The biggest takeaway for me is that real magic is healing and about remembering our connection with Mother Earth.

This is an attraction that is sold out at least 6 months in advance, and we didn't have tickets...
But we didn't let a muggle problem like that stop us. We used our magical witchy powers to manifest our way in... and it actually worked!
Then, we spent the whole day living out our childhood dreams and discussing how the magic in Harry Potter relates to real magic and real witchcraft.

Welcome to the church that worships ice… ICE CHURCH! In this video, I am back in Colorado to experience an event called Ice Church. Ice Church is a weekly gathering that happens every Sunday in Boulder, Colorado where the community practices the Wim Hof Method together, starting with breathwork and then cold plunges in the ice baths.
Although Ice Church actually has no religious connotation and is not a real church, Ice Church go-ers like to think of this event as an alternative to attending church on Sundays, and something that provides community and a spiritual experience via the breathwork and ice baths.
Justin Weiss is the creator and leader of Ice Church and started his own journey with the Wim Hof Method during a 5-year battle with chronic pain disease fibromyalgia. After trying everything, nothing seemed to work for him except breathwork, cold therapy, and the Wim Hof Method. Eventually, he trained with the Iceman himself and became a certified Wim Hof Method instructor. He then started gathering with his friends on Sunday to do cold plunges in the ice baths while his roommate was at church, so his friends started calling it Ice Church as a joke and it stuck!

This time, I'm joined by my friend Tristan, who like me, has a dream to live past 100 years old and become a centenarian. Checkout Tristan's video on Seek Discomfort!
In Loma Linda, California residents live about a decade longer than the average American and are staying vibrant and healthy into their 80s, 90s, and even 100s.
This anomaly of an American city is home to a large number of centenarians or people who live to be over 100 years old.
Loma Linda is one of five Blue Zones in the entire world and the only one in North America. A Blue Zone is an area of the world where residents live much longer than the average human and also seem to stay fit and healthy into old age, avoiding the typical diseases that have become leading causes of disease. The other Blue Zones are Nicoya, Costa Rica, Sardinia, Italy, Ikaria, Greece, and Okinawa, Japan.
The majority of residents in Loma Linda are Seventh Day Adventists, a Christian religion that believes in specific healthy lifestyle practices. Researchers believe this may be a key contributing factor to Loma Linda's increased health and longevity. But in this video, I dive deeper to learn more about the Seventh Day Adventist religion and what longevity secrets within this religion may be helping people live past 100.

This Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified healthcare provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical or mental health condition.
This video documents my experience trying ketamine meditation therapy. As someone who’s had ups and downs with anxiety and depression throughout the years, I was curious to learn more about ketamine therapy and other psychedelic-assisted therapies. Up until now, I had never tried a substance-induced therapy and used natural methods to improve my mental health.
Throughout the past several years, I have started to learn about psychedelic-assisted therapy and its potential as a groundbreaking treatment for mental health conditions. When ketamine therapy came into my awareness, I was curious. After learning more, it became clear that ketamine therapy is something that might help me on my journey with depression and anxiety.
It's important to note that I met with a clinician before this session and was prescribed this ketamine legally. Ketamine therapy is not for everyone and should only be used with medical supervision.
Ketamine has been FDA approved since 1970 as an anesthetic for humans and animals. In 1999 it became a schedule III non-narcotic substance, meaning that it has a “a low to moderate potential for dependence and abuse, and a currently accepted medical use.”
In 2019, the FDA approved the use of ketamine as a medication for depression via a nasal spray called Esketmaine.
Recently, more and more scientific research has been emerging about ketamine therapy and other psychedelic-assisted therapies, including studies from major medical Universities including Johns Hopkins, Yale, and Harvard.
I want to reiterate that this was only my personal experience trying ketamine therapy, and it will look and feel different for everyone, and even though my experience looked a bit strange, I felt such a deep catharsis and it was truly a beautiful, healing experience. I am so curious to hear your thoughts on this video so please drop a comment below!

In this video, I sit down with Anders Hofman, the only person in the world to complete an ironman triathlon in Antarctica, something he coined an “Iceman.” It’s a 3.8 (2.4 miles) kilometer swim, a 180 kilometer (112 miles) bike ride, and a full 42.2 (26.2 miles) kilometer marathon, all in below freezing temperatures and extremely unforgiving conditions.
But unlike someone like the OG Iceman Wim Hof, who Anders actually didn’t even know about until about one year into his journey, Anders has never had an innate ability to withstand the cold. He could barely stand 30 seconds in cold water when he began his training journey. He wasn’t even a pro ironman athlete when he decided to do this. He described himself as a “nobody” and simply wanted to prove that the ordinary can achieve the extraordinary. So in June 2018, he posted a video to YouTube announcing to the world what he was going to attempt.
Nearly 5 years later, there is now a feature-length documentary film made by Yes Theory about Anders's journey. You can go see Project Iceman in 158 movie theaters across the US on December 4th & 6th: cinemark.com/movies/project-iceman
In this interview we discuss his mindset towards taking on such a dangerous feat, how to overcome doubt and go after what you really want in life, and how he overcame his lowest moments and went on to finish the Iceman.

In this video, I share my top 5 favorite healing therapies for transformation.
Over the years, I have tried a lot of various healing modalities, spiritual practices, and alternative therapies. So in this video I want to share my top 5 personal favorites, the ones that have been most effective and transformational for me. These therapies have positively impacted my mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual health and wellbeing.
Yoga and meditation are sort of like staple practices in my life at this point, but I am not including them on this list because I really want to share some of the more novel therapies I have tried that have really made a massive impact on me. All of these healing therapies are extremely accessible and free.
In this video I discuss my experience with earthing/grounding, darkness therapy, somatic release therapies, cold therapy, and breathwork. I’ve made videos about trying all of these alternative healing therapies, so I’ve added links to my past videos if you are interested in diving deeper into any of these topics.

Salem is like Halloweentown IRL. It's seriously the Halloween capital of the world. I interviewed witches, wizards, warlocks, demons, Jesus, gargoyles, and lots of other spooky characters.
We also learn a bit about the history of Salem and the 1692 Salem Witch Trials. Salem is even where the movie Hocus Pocus takes place and was filmed! It has so much history and lots of fascinating people.
In this video, I spend the day with real vampires in Salem, Massachusetts, the famous Witch City. It's "Interview With The Vampire" IRL! These vampires are part of the Maison Vampyre “clan” or “colony” as they like to call it.
Ben & Lex are the owners of VampFangs and Maison Vampyre in Salem, They are real vampires and brought me into their world for the day to show me what it means to live the vampire lifestyle.
Vampires are peculiar creatures. Either we think of them as evil bloodthirsty monsters stalking their prey in the night or sparkly, seductive beings you might want to prey on you, like Edward Cullen from Twilight.
But all of these images come from the Hollywood depiction of the vampire. Vampires are just fictional characters… right?
Well, it turns out there are approximately 5,000 people in the United States who identify as “real vampires” and in this video, we get to meet some.
Vampire History
The concept of a corpse returning to feed off the living dates back to the Middle Ages. In the twelfth century the Latin term, sanguisuga or “bloodsucker” was first used.
The word vampire itself first entered the English language in 1732 as widespread fear of “real vampires” took hold across Europe, when the sensationalist report of “vampiric attacks” in Serbia made its way to publication in the London press.
Eventually, even the tuberculosis epidemic was blamed on vampires.
The image of the vampire has come a long way since then, as modern Hollywood depictions of the once putrid monster have evolved to seductive creatures with superhuman abilities and immortality.
It’s this kind of alluring image that influenced the real-life vampire community to emerge in the 1990s out of New York City’s goth scene.
Thank you so much to Ben & Lex and the Maison Vampyre community!

“Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” - Howard Thurman
In this video, we help a stranger discover their life’s purpose and give them $5,000 to pursue it.
For a long time I felt lost without a purpose but through consistent inner work, spiritual practice, and following my excitement… I slowly figured it out and it changed my life. I finally feel like I know why I am here and what I’m meant to share with the world. I want others to experience the magic of discovering their unique soul's purpose.
But this process took me several years.
What if you could discover your soul’s purpose in a single conversation? That’s what my friend Sahara Rose does best. Sahara Rose is the Purpose Queen. Her soul’s purpose is to help others discover theirs. She refers to purpose as dharma, the yogic concept of one’s life path and highest purpose.
In her book Discover Your Dharma, Sahara dives deeper into what purpose actually means, and she outlines practical frameworks to unlock your soul’s deepest calling and purpose.
Sahara also created the world’s first coaching certification program for soul purpose and spiritual life coaches, the Dharma Coaching Institute.
I knew Sahara was the perfect person for this job, so we teamed up to change a stranger’s life, by giving them $5,000 to pursue their life’s purpose.

Vibes, SkyInside Americas Wildest Hippie Commune (The Rainbow Family)Sky Life2022-08-25 | The first 1,000 people to use this link will get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare: https://skl.sh/skylife08221
This was my honest experience attending the 50th Anniversary of the Rainbow Family Gathering.
The Rainbow Family Gathering is an unsanctioned event that happens every summer, where thousands of hippies flock to a secret location somewhere on national forest land to build a village from nothing.
You could call the Rainbow Family a commune, but it’s not a typical commune where a group of people lives together full-time. It’s like a temporary commune where the village gets built and torn down in the span of a few months, culminating in a festival-like event during the week of July 4th.
The location is always different, but many members of the Rainbow Family return year after year, especially this year. Because what began 50 years ago in 1972, is still happening to this day, and a handful of the original Rainbow Family are still alive and were celebrating 50 years.
When I was researching The Rainbow Family Gathering, some people said this event was the epitome of a hippie utopia, while others were a lot more critical.
So what’s the truth about the Rainbow Family Gathering? I needed to find out for myself. So I decided to attend the 50th Anniversary of Rainbow Family Gathering to experience this historic event and hopefully get some answers.

Vibes, Sky vice rainbow family gathering 2022 new age hippieInside A Sacred Gathering Of Indigenous LeadersSky Life2022-08-11 | Check-out Aniwa: aniwa.co
In this video, I attend Aniwa, a sacred gathering of indigenous leaders from all over the world. Aniwa is an annual non-profit event bringing together 40 of the world's most respected indigenous leaders to share their wisdom, exchange culture, and join together in sacred ceremony.
Aniwa is organized by the Boa Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to preserving and protecting indigenous land. The Boa Foundation works in alliance with indigenous communities to preserve and protect sacred land, culture, and ancient wisdom. It supports projects including strategic land buybacks, restoration of native ecosystems, cultural exchange, and sustainable living solutions.
I had the privilege of learning from indigenous wisdom keepers from all over the world, including the Mayan, Yawanawa, Achuar, Dogon, Hopi, Hawaii, and many more.
This event was one that is hard to put into words. I was deeply moved from experiencing the sacred ceremonies, listening to the elders share their wisdom, and seeing the cross-cultural exchange. There are such powerful ancient codes held within these communities, and I hope this video can be awakening to you in some way.

Vibes, SkyI Spent 100 Hours In Total Darkness (Darkness Therapy)Sky Life2022-07-28 | Try Open for 30 days free with my code SKY30 go.o-p-e-n.com/SKY30
When was the last time you were in the dark? I mean, really in the dark?
Even at night, there’s usually some kind of light peaking through, whether it’s the moon, a night light, or light from a charger.
But pure darkness is the kind of dark that your eyes don’t adjust to.
It’s the kind of dark that we don’t often experience.
Total darkness.
Well, I recently spent 100 hours in total darkness… and this was my experience.
A Darkness Retreat is a kind of therapy where you spend an extended amount of time in complete darkness with no light, sound, or external stimuli. Traditionally this is an ancient spiritual practice reserved for very advanced meditation practitioners but now a handful of darkness retreat centers have made this experience available to regular folk like me and people seem to be having profound experiences in the dark.
So I headed to Sky Cave Retreats in Ashland, Oregon to spend 5 days in the dark.
Thank you so much to Scott & Sky Cave Retreats for having me!

Vibes, SkyWhat This 97-Year-Old Dietitian Thinks About CaffeineSky Life2022-07-16 | ...Speaking the language of nature with Snow Raven #shortsSky Life2022-06-30 | ...This dare has been haunting me for a year #shortsSky Life2022-06-23 | ...How Curiosity Led Me On The Wildest AdventureSky Life2022-06-16 | I never want to look back on my life and wish that I went for it. When most people are passing, they don’t regret the things they did, they regret the things they didn’t do.
I want to be in my last years of life knowing that I fully LIVED… even when it was scary, even when it was uncomfortable, even when I wanted to run away. I want to die knowing that I left it all on the table. I want to look back and say, “Wow, I did the thing.”
Life is about living. NOW.
After four years of creating videos on Sky Life, I’ve realized that my #1 mission is to inspire the shift from judgment to curiosity. Curiosity has led me here and it will continue to lead me for the rest of my life.
Judgment creates division, hatred, and misunderstanding. Curiosity creates unity, love, and understanding. We are so quick to judge others and even quicker to judge ourselves, but what if with every moment of our judgments we started to shift them to moments of curiosity? What kind of world would we see? I believe that curiosity is the key.
Following my curiosity has led me on the wildest adventure. From learning witchcraft with real witches to living in off-grid eco-villages in the jungle, spending time with indigenous communities, living with a multi-millionaire who used to be homeless and a “breatharian” who hasn’t eaten in four years, a tough-as-nails grandma who has been barefoot for 12 years, living with a spiritual circus group and dancing with fire blindfolded, meeting gurus, lamas, shamans, and charlatans, living in a hippie commune for a year, hunting UFOs in the middle of nowhere, hiking a mountain in a snowstorm with the Iceman Wim Hof, drinking my own sacred waters in front of a live audience, and trying countless methods of alternative and holistic healing, this channel has truly been the wildest adventure… and I am only getting started.
Thank you for supporting this journey. To those of you who have been here since the beginning, I am endlessly grateful for the deep connection we’ve built over the years. The Vibe Tribe community is truly one-of-a-kind incredible. I am constantly blown away by your open minds, huge hearts, and your passion for life that we share. I can’t wait to see where this all goes and to continue adventuring with you. Let’s LIVE!

Vibes, SkyWhy I Drank THIS In Front Of 200 PeopleSky Life2022-06-09 | I FINALLY did it. I finally completed the promise that I made almost a year ago and we went BIG. Are you happy now?!
You’re probably wondering how it tasted and honestly… it tasted like salt water. It was no big deal! I fasted and drank a TON of water all day long, which is why it was so clear and didn’t taste bad at all. I actually felt incredible for 24 hours after… maybe there is really something to this weird, fringe practice? What do you think?
I feel a weight lifted from my shoulders having finally completed this. I am a woman of my word but I am going to be extra careful what kind of promises I make in the future.
Aside from the "peeformance," Unleash was such an incredible experience. I loved meeting so many members from the Vibe Tribe and diving into such powerful healing modalities including EFT tapping with Sonya Sophia and Yarixa's dance therapy Unleash experience. What a magical sober hippie festival! I HIGHLY recommend experiencing Unleash if you feel the calling!

Vibes, SkyHow This Indigenous Woman Talks To Plants & AnimalsSky Life2022-04-21 | In this video, I spend the day with an indigenous woman who talks to plants and animals! Indigenous Sakha Snow Raven comes from Arctic Siberia from the Sakha Republic. This is the coldest inhabited place in the world with temperatures reaching -96 degrees Fahrenheit in the winters! Snow Raven lived in a small village of 600 people for 18 years with no internet or technology. Her ancestors learned how to survive through having a deep connection with nature, which is how she learned how to talk to plants and animals using ceremony and song. Now it's her mission to share this wisdom with the world!
Snow Raven’s mission is to bring the wisdom of her ancestors into modern life and share the teachings and culture of the Sakha people all over the world.
Snow Raven brought me into nature and showed me a traditional ceremony for connecting and communicating with the Spirit of Nature, known as Aan Alakhchyn Khotun in Sakha. She then guided me through some vocal exercises to speak the language of nature and she taught me how to play the mouth harp, known as "khmous" in Sakha. The mouth harp is a way she accesses altered states of consciousness naturally.
I am so grateful to have spent the day with Snow Raven. She is such a light with so much wisdom to share. What a special way to spend another day!
In this video, I share my experience meeting a lama who didn’t talk for 4 years. Lama Dorje spent four years in silent meditation during his training to become a lama. Many monks who complete this vow of silence end up going crazy, but Lama Dorje made it out with his mind intact and has so much wisdom to share from this experience.
I went to see Lama Dorje when I was in Costa Rica in January 2022. During this time I was going through quite a process. I ended up developing an ear infection that came from swimmer’s ear physically, but I truly believe that emotionally I manifested this physical symptom. I had never had an ear infection as an adult, but it was so not fun. It hurt to chew and the pressure on the entire left side of my head was very intense. Reflecting on this, I feel this ear infection was symbolic of many of the emotional issues I was going through at the time, mainly around not listening to myself and my intuition, feeling unable to trust myself, and the massive pressure I was putting on myself.
When I met Lama Dorje, he said this was symbolic of having a blockage with my feminine energy and that it was important for me to listen to my heart and give myself more self-love and compassion.
I wanted to make a full video about Lama Dorje, but I was really struggling the day that I went to meet him. I was in so much pain and was not able to continue filming the video. So we stopped the cameras and I got to speak with him one-on-one to receive some guidance and advice. This meant a lot to me.
The energy he shared was so loving and pure. He didn’t care if I made a video or not. He had no expectations and he just wanted to help and share his wisdom. I felt like he was seeing me for my worth and value as a human being, and not for how much I can produce or create, which is a lot of how I had been judging myself.
This video is not like my other videos. I don’t have some crazy experience to share, I just wanted to be honest with what happened and share this in the hopes that it might be supportive to some of you!

The synchronicities in this video were so crazy. It almost seems too perfect, but I promise that NONE of this was planned. I knew nothing about Thamar, Thamar knew nothing about Sahara, and Sahara knew nothing about Thamar! I briefly met Thamar at Unleash and Sahara and I planned this part of the video very last minute, the day before we filmed the vide. I put out a message to see who from the Vibe Tribe was still in Miami and after getting lots of messages, I just had an intuition that Thamar was the person who needed to experience this, not knowing anything about her or any of the synchronicities we ended up discovering. This is how magic & manifestation works everyone!
In this video, I pay a visit to the purpose QUEEN Sahara Rose and we help one of my subscribers from the Vibe Tribe find her purpose! Sahara Rose is a renowned spiritual coach, a best-selling author, the host of one of the top spiritual podcasts in the world, and she created the Dharma Coaching Institute, which is the first certification program in the world for soul purpose & spiritual life coaches.
In this video, we get to hear Sahara’s powerful story, how she found her dharma (her soul’s purpose) and how she turned it into an extremely successful career.
I am someone who used to have no idea what my purpose was and I was completely lost. I kept praying and praying to God, “I just want to know my purpose. Just tell me why I’m here!” and now I finally feel like I’ve figured that out and I’m actually doing it as my career! But I know that’s not the case for many people.
So in this video, I invited a member from the Vibe Tribe named Thamar, who recently quit her job as a nurse, and was looking for her purpose. Sahara guides Thamar through a coaching session and helps her gain clarity on what her purpose may be and how to turn it into a career.

Eleven even had the perfect girl in mind for me, a musician and video creator named Cami Petyn.

In this video, I reflect back on 2021 and share all of the magical things I have manifested this past year using intention, magic, and the law of attraction. I talk about all of magick and manifestation tools and techniques I tried on the channel last year and share the results! I share how I manifested love with a love spell I did with my witch friend Mia Magik, a new dream home with a new home ritual, and a special technique that I never made a video about but helped me manifest a lot of money that came in a very unexpected way.
This past year I’ve made several videos about witchcraft, the power of intention, magic, and manifestation. So many spells and techniques I’ve experimented with in order to try to manifest things... actually worked… like really well. So I wanted to make a video to share all of the results from 2021 so you can know that magic is real!
I also share what didn’t necessarily work and include some of my best manifestation advice and tips.
