Description
Created by Glenn Ostlund, MA, MS, LAC—a licensed therapist in Arizona—this guided meditation series is designed to support clients between therapy sessions using evidence-based mindfulness techniques and binaural audio beats.
Binaural beats are subtle, rhythmic sound frequencies that guide your brain into restorative states like alpha and theta. Research shows they can reduce anxiety, improve focus, and help shift the nervous system out of chronic stress. This “reset” happens as your brain learns to relax, regulate, and respond differently over time. Think of it as integration and balance, rather than deleting and restarting.
To receive the full benefit, headphones or earbuds are required.
These sessions are gentle but powerful—a daily practice to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and prepare for deeper therapeutic work.
Whether you're a client of Glenn's or simply looking for support, you're welcome here. Let this be your daily reset.

In this binaural audio meditation, I offer reflections on Pluribus—not as claims about authorial intent, but as a personal response to what the story evokes in me. I don’t presume to know the intentions of Vince Gilligan, the creative team, or what Rhea Seehorn is aiming to convey. Listening to the show’s official podcast, you can hear the care, curiosity, and shared joy behind their process—a kind of pluribus, a many-as-one collaboration that I deeply respect. My reflections exist alongside that work, not over it.Using Carol Sterka’s resistance to the Joining as a case study, this episode explores perception as a “controlled hallucination,” shaped by memory, identity, and threat. The soundscape itself is intentionally open-ended: binaural beats move gently between theta and delta in a Fibonacci-inspired rhythm, forming a kaleidoscope of sound rather than a lesson.This podcast also gives me space to explore ideas I often hold quietly in therapy—ways of seeing people, trauma, and meaning that belong to reflection rather than intervention. I create these episodes for my own regulation and practice, trusting each listener will take from it exactly what their nervous system needs.

In this episode, we explore RNA as both a biological messenger and a symbolic signal—something that appears to arrive from beyond us in the Apple Plus TV show Pluribus, and yet has always been at work within us. Through a layered binaural soundscape oscillating between delta and theta states, this reflection considers RNA not just as genetic code, but as a coordinating force in life: shaping cooperation, regulation, and connection at every level.Rather than approaching RNA as a scientific problem to solve, this episode invites a quieter question: what happens when we listen to the patterns that already sustain us? Drawing from evolutionary biology, folklore, nervous system science, and the themes of Pluribus, the episode reflects on how life organizes itself—not through domination, but through joining.This is a meditative inquiry, not an explanation. Headphones are recommended. Let the sound hold the space as the system settles, and notice what the idea of RNA-as-signal evokes in you.
