In this episode of **Conscious Cycles Podcast**, host **Maritza Plascencia** invites listeners to explore what happens when culture becomes ceremony.

Using the lens of collective nervous system regulation, ritual, and ancestral remembering, this episode reflects on the spiritual and symbolic impact of **Bad Bunny’s 2025 global free livestream** and how moments like the **Super Bowl halftime show** can function as modern-day rituals, whether we engage them consciously or not.

Maritza shares personal reflections from her own experiences in ceremony, including time spent in spiritual retreats in Colombia, drawing parallels between Indigenous ritual spaces and large-scale cultural moments where millions gather in shared attention.

This episode offers:

* A trauma-informed perspective on collective witnessing

* A spiritual-symbolic read of global cultural events

* Reflections on land, ancestry, and belonging

* Simple practices to prepare your body, heart, and nervous system to watch the Super Bowl halftime show with intention

This is not a conversation about opinion or performance.

It’s an invitation to presence, relationship, and shared humanity.

Listen before the game.

Light a candle.

Watch with heart.

The vision for this podcast began taking shape in 2023, when Maritza first began her journey with sacred plant medicine. A journey that has slowly prepared her for this moment. Though the world as we know it is collapsing day by day, she is in deep gratitude we don't have to face the collapse alone and that together we get to imagine and co-create the world we want to see.
