Sound and Plant Medicine
I work with Sound, vibration and resonance to help people feel more centred in themselves and therefore more freely able to connect with others and the wider world.
We are connected to each other and to the wider world by resonance. When we talk, we create resonance. When we are moved by the setting sun, that is a resonant relationship. When we act upon shared ideas or from similar values, we create resonance.
I use traditional instruments such as the gong, drums and flutes as well as the voice in order to create a shared resonance that can stimulate deep relaxation as well as the release of accumulated tension. I also aim to invoke a deeper connection, or resonance, with the wider world through ritual, ceremony, mantra singing, drumming circles, and sound journeys.
I bring all of these techniques to the process of accompanying people who are going through transitional moments in their lives, whether this be due to entering a different life stage, the end of a relationship, the death of a loved one, or facing one's own mortality. Personal transformation may also flow from a deeply held desire to change one's own life and one's relationships with others. Towards this end I also work with Reiki, deep listening and conversation, personal rituals as well as, on occasions, plant medicines.
If you would like to know more about how I work and talk over how I might accompany you, I would be very happy to have a conversation about it for no charge and with no commitment.

I have heard and read about retreats and the psilocybin effect, but the experience itself was much more than I expected. I felt like the headset was taken off my head and I was able to feel everything soooo deeply, I didn’t realize I could experience such deep feelings. Oliver was an amazing coordinator in my experience, the whole set up- nature and sound therapy- made my journey absolutely full of insights and deep meaning. I felt like Oliver was also feeling / knowing what I am experiencing and gradually walked me through this trip. I highly recommend everyone to have such experiences, to find yourself and to understand yourself more, what’s important and not so important in life. Now, whenever I feel stressed and in a bad mood I keep trying to go back to that day and remember my deep feelings and who I am without these extra layers.

What people say...
Existe una parte del ser a la que solo podemos acceder en estados de profunda relajación. A través del sonido, Oliver sabe llevar a sus participantes a ese lugar donde las tensiones se aflojan y se encienden múltiples sensaciones para las que no tenemos nombre, puesto que no pertenecen al espectro de lo consciente. Entrar en ese lugar de placer donde la mente no puede entrar ¡es un regalo! Os lo recomiendo

Wonderful Experience
I did a 1:1 session with Oliver in Alpens. Overall, it was a smooth, peaceful yet energizing experience. Oliver is meticulous, compassionate and has deep knowledge/experience. We did a prep session prior, where he answered all my questions in depth while providing guidance and information that put me more at ease. The session itself was very well structured, yet it also was open to spontaneity and allowing flow. Oliver was very open to allowing me my own space while also picking up cues in the case I wanted to adjust the experience, for example, types of music to be played whether it being recorded or live via his beautiful instruments. At some point, we practiced breathwork and sound/vocal therapy which was an enlightening experience. The place I stayed at was also amazing near the woods; clean, new and comfortable. I would highly recommend Oliver as your guide for this journey for newcomers and more experienced people. I think being open and showing vulnerability also enhances the experience as he is very empathetic.

Individual Psylicybin Experience
Just finished a private one on one session over the weekend- last friday afternoon. Psylicybin Hero dose, combined with Olivers wonderfull sound therapy. All I can really say is that the whole experience was amazing. The location in the beautifull country house in the nature, Olivers compassion and patience, the set and setting was perfect. I will definitely be back next year. Everyone should experience something like this in my view.
Thanks Oliver

My experience with Oliver and my time in Alpens was profoundly meaningful: everything I had hoped for and nothing that I expected. Oliver created a space, both physically and spiritually, that made it easy for me to let go of what was holding me back and access the deep healing power of the mushrooms. I am incredibly grateful and forever changed.
