0:00.0	Sweet friends, if you do not know Aubrey Marcus, I am so excited to introduce this man to you.
0:04.9	He is playing such a big game. He is a dear friend and has been a huge supporter of me and Ziva
0:10.0	over the years. And in this conversation, we talk about how meditation has changed him, about how
0:15.1	meditation can be a practice of psychonautics, the deep exploration of your own psyche, the dangers of jumping in too far too
