In this video I describe my first two nights of plant medicine (ayahuasca) ceremonies at Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Guanacaste, Costa Rica.
Rythmia is an all-inclusive, medically licensed luxury resort and wellness retreat in Costa Rica that specializes in holistic healing of body and mind. When Gerard Powell, the Founder of Rythmia, started his journey toward optimal health and well-being, he was a successful businessman worth millions of dollars but was profoundly unhappy. His search for the purest forms of medicine and the most effective ways of healing led him to create Rythmia, a life-transforming, luxury health and wellness center. Driven by the ease of awakening through alternative therapy programs, he decided to make it his life’s mission to show others there is indeed a shortcut to happiness. Gerry, today, is beloved by all who know him. I consider him to be a real force of nature and, despite how difficult plant medicine ceremonies often prove to be, can't wait to get back to Rythmia for another round.

![Exploring Magical Wilmington, NC, and its Beaches
Join me as I drive from Newton, North Carolina, for my first ever trip to the historic city of Wilmington. Not only does Wilmington have a beautiful and walkable downtown on the banks of the Cape Fear River but its in close proximity to a number of pristine beaches, including Carolina Beach with its well-known boardwalk and Wrightsville Beach, named one of the Souths best beaches for its picturesque setting and laid-back atmosphere. Not only will you get to see a beautiful, and as yet, relatively undiscovered part of the country, but youll even get a free lesson in the art of sailing.
