i am reading the book rn and this has brought IFS so much closer and made it so much more accessible. thank you for your courage and vulnerability

A fascinating listen. Thanks for your vulnerability Ben!

thank you Sam,  How did you pick this memory of your 13 year old self. Did it stand out in particular, or as especially formative? Curious how one would work on a slew of younger episodes , One memory at a time? by themes?  Part of me wouldn't  know where to begin.  Thanks again.  -j

Hi Sam, It is August 17th and I listened to "The Edge of the Mind" podcast featuring Dr. Schwartz and was so enthralled that I took notes. Today I met a woman who was "coincidentally" involved with IFS and gave me the name of her guide ( I guess you could say ) who later called me to set up a session. Talk about synchronicity! I am now listening to the audible book, " No bad parts" by Richard Schwartz. I am just begining this journey, thanks to you and your guest

Sam, thank you for being so vulnerable with us.

thank you for sharing! so pumped to learn more about ifs

Listening as I read the transcript on the book and wow! So great to get to listen in as I learn about IFS and want to apply this to my own life. Thank you for sharing this Sam!

Came here from the book, “No Bad Parts”

IFS is truly life changing. Thank you Richard Schwartz.

Ambient/Etc NYE (souns dj set)

To celebrate my new book "The Psychedelic DJ" (a.co/d/dygri6S) and release of the accompanying therapeutic DJ mixes "Psilocybin Therapy Protocol 1" (tinyurl.com/isolatedmix132) and "PsiIocybin Therapy Protocol 2" (tinyurl.com/deepbreakfast318), I'm happy to release a 7.25-hour longform DJ mix protocol that I created for a unique recreational medicine day with a group of therapists, facilitators, and guides—many of whom were exploring new combinations of psychedelics in a safe, supported, intentional/recreational social setting.

The experience included two overlapping groups, each moving through distinct pharmacological timelines involving MDMA, psilocybin, 2C-B, and ketamine.

Group 1 began with MDMA, followed by a psilocybin boost at 90 minutes and a ketamine boost around the 4.5-hour mark. 

Group 2 began with MDMA and added 2C-B approximately 3 hours in.

The music was curated to reflect and support the evolving energetic waves of these substances beginning with warm, heart-opening ambient textures, slowly building into layered melodic rhythms and deep psychedelic atmospheres that aligned with peak moments, and gently grounding into more spacious, landing tones near the end.

Unlike typical DJ mixes, which contain multiple different tracks, this particular protocol consists of full or partial albums, with moments of single tracks interwoven throughout. It’s a fusion of extended album segments and carefully chosen standalone pieces, creating one long, immersive journey. The compilation is mixed to ensure smooth transitions, maintaining continuity throughout the experience—allowing the journey to flow naturally and seamlessly from start to finish.

Rather than the therapeutic protocols that accompany the book, this set includes some subtle, washed-out, ethereal vocals and 4/4 beat-driven passages, inviting connection, joy, curiosity, and introspection while still maintaining emotional depth, safety, and fun.

Thanks so much for you support and happy journeying!

Nils Frahm & A Winged Victory for the Sullen - Proms 2015

We come to the end of 2025 and I am happy to share my yearly mixtape. It is a vision of the tracks that marked me this year alongside the ideas floating in my mind for the future. It has no boundaries, no genres, just a rhythm and a flow. Hard to describe this one but definitely moves more towards beauty in simplicity. 

As the world moves on at such a rapid pace it aint bad to have some things that are stable and these yearly mixes keep me stable. It is always a bit insane as a process but I do hope you this journey.

Live at Dürer Kert (21/02/206)

El Búho aka Robin Perkins was born in the rolling hills of northern England but found his musical home in the forests of Latin America. His music blends together the rhythms, mythologies and melodies of his adopted continent with the sound of waterfalls, birdsongs, crackling leaves and a modern electronic aesthetic. The result is a dreamy, deep, melodic journey that entrances as much through headphones as it does on the dancefloor.

He has released music on Wonderwheel Recordings, ZZK Records and Antartek and collaborated with producers and musicians like Luzmila Carpio, Lucas Santanna, Chancha Via Circuito, Mercedes Nasta, Lagartijeando, Matanza and Barrio Lindo

He also co-runs global artists collective Shika Shika and coodinated the non-profit album “A Guide to the Birdsong of South America”. Currently based in Paris, France he has played or lived in Buenos Aires, Mexico City, Seoul, Amsterdam, Glasgow and more.

WAVE TAPES

WAVE TAPE 02 - El Buho #WAVEYWEDNESDAY

Richard Schwartz, Ph.D., is the founder of Internal Family Systems, a unique and astoundingly effective modality of psychotherapy that focuses on the various parts within a person. Internal Family Systems, or IFS, views multiplicity of mind as our natural state and our “parts” as sub-personalities that may be healed and transformed by bringing the Self into its rightful role as leader of the internal system. In this interview, he guides Sam through some transformational trauma work.
