In Right Relationship | Maya Martinez Gomez - Sound as Sacrament: Weaving Music, Ritual, and Ancestral Wisdom #4

In this episode of In Right Relationship, hosts Liz Chernett and Lily Eggers sit down with musician, medicine woman, and cultural bridge-builder Maya Martinez Gomez, known as MaYita. They explore music as a profound healing force, capable of shifting personal and collective consciousness. Maya shares insights on living life as a continuous ceremony and treating every sound and word as prayer. Drawing from her experiences connecting Indigenous traditions, contemporary communities, and global lineages, she reflects on how cultivating coherence within oneself ripples out to others, elevating our capacity for love and transformation. They discuss the importance of honoring daily rituals, embracing intentional self-talk, and remembering our innate medicine, both with and without the sacramental use of master teacher plants. Tune in for a heartfelt exploration of sound, prayer, and compassionate presence in these pivotal times.
