About our guest:
David Verdesi has dedicated his life to the phenomenology of human potential. Extensive research into wisdom traditions, including the concepts of Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, and Kabbalism, compared with methods of askesis in anthropology, psychology, neurobiology, and quantum physics, have allowed Verdesi to configure an algorithm that navigates the human psyche.

His continued research combined with culminated years of travels as well as practice disciplines including yoga, kung fu, pranayama, tantra, qigong, and several years in remote solitary meditations, have given him a deep understanding of the individuation process, altered states of consciousness to the realization of wholeness.
