Morgan O. Smith is a former stand-up comedian turned meditator. He spent 14 years in the comedy scene, including nine years hosting his own TV show. During the last two years of his comedy career, Morgan discovered light and sound machines, which introduced him to deeper states of meditation. This transformative experience led him to leave show business to focus on meditation and raising his children. Over time, Morgan achieved profound meditative states, including Turia and Tiritita, which inspired him to delve deeper into mindfulness.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Morgan began working with autistic children and offered online meditation sessions, reaching over 1,000 students to help alleviate their stress and anxiety. Alongside his partner Cada Edwards Pierre, he co-developed an innovative app named Psycle. The app utilizes AR, XR technologies, and Brainwave Entrainment to guide users into meditative states, aiming to enhance creativity, mindfulness, and overall well-being. Morgan's book, “Bodhi In The Brain,” further explores his meditation program and its benefits.

  • I still experience my emotions and express them, but when I'm expressing them, I'm doing it from a witness standpoint, so I get to watch myself go through it, and when I'm going through it, it's not as bad as I thought it was.
Thoughts On Breathing
  • People can look into pranayama, the art of breathing, and Hinduism and yoga as traditions. My favorite breathing technique is two breaths of fire.
  • They breathe in and out really quickly through the nostrils, which can put you into a certain state. One of my other favorites is alternate nostril breathing, which involves switching from nostril to nostril. This really bounces out the two hemispheres of the brain.
What Is Kemor?
  • We were inspired to create Kemor, which is myself and my partner, Keda Edwards Pierre. We got together and created this development app about these five-dimensional beings, which we call Mukshas. This name comes from the word moksha, which means liberation.
    They become meditation guides. We bring people into these realms, and they meditate using binaural beats. We are using AR and XR technologies. AI and brainwave entrainment will come along in the future.
