Spiritual Practice and Psychedelic Therapy
Manage episode 426191726 series 1076022
This week, on The Conscious Consultant Hour, Sam is pleased to welcome ER Doctor, Assistant Professor of Medicine, Psychedelic Researcher & Guide, Sound Meditation and Breathwork Facilitator, Dr. William Berk.
Raised a Buddhist, Dr. Berk has married his longstanding meditation practice with his medical career in the ER of a Lower Manhattan hospital. His experiences have honed his focus on empathy, joy, and presence in his practice. He discovered a unique approach to meditation in 2020, using harmonic tones from various instruments like singing bowls and gongs to achieve deep meditative states. This approach, combined with his own practices of breathwork, visualization, and loving kindness, offers a transformative experience he's eager to share.
When the COVID crisis hit, Dr. Berk saw firsthand how important his approach could be. He offered small meditation sessions to his colleagues, helping them find peace and quiet their minds amidst the chaos. The result was a profound positive effect on everyone involved, enabling them to tap into their inherent goodness, even under intense stress.
His work has expanded beyond the ER, though. Dr. Berk now serves as a wellness consultant for the hospital system, providing meditations aimed at preventing burnout among staff. He also facilitates meditation sessions at social clubs in NYC and guides small groups at his Brooklyn studio. His roles at Nautilus Sanctuary, a NYC-based non-profit for psychedelic-assisted therapy, and The Center for Enlightenment Arts (CEA), a spirituality sanctuary offering transformative experiences, further reinforce his dedication to wellness and mindfulness. As an assistant professor and clinical instructor at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, his influence extends to the next generation of medical practitioners.
