In this episode of Minds on Mushrooms, we sit down with our guest, Nick Musica, the Founder and CEO of Optics In LLC who shares his fascinating journey into animal communication and his deep connection with psychedelics. 

He shares how a 2017 San Pedro ceremony profoundly changed his understanding of consciousness and meditation and how it paved the way for his practice of communicating with animals, a gift that began with vivid clairvoyant dreams and was confirmed during a psychic medium reading.

Nick co-authored When Search Meets Web Usability, a book about SEO and web usability, in April of 2009. He taught a masters-level class on User Experience at NYU and has presented at SMX in Germany and ClickZ in San Francisco.

Tune in to find valuable insights into the interplay between plant medicine and mindfulness practices, and how these can enhance one’s connection to the world around them, including animals.
