How To Feel Nothing | Processing Psychedelics From The Inside Out

How to Feel Nothing is a podcast about psychedelic integration, trauma, and the nervous system—told from inside the process. You don’t need another map of your mind. You need a way back into your body. How to Feel Nothing is for anyone who's touched something real—through psychedelics, grief, crisis, or revelation—and now finds themselves caught between insight and action. Hosted by a clinician who survived a near-death injury and got tired of watching the field chase transcendence while ignoring perception, this show invites you into the messy, relational, and often uncomfortable terrain of integration. We cut through spiritual bypass, Cartesian embodiment, and psychedelic ego cosplay to ask harder questions: What does it mean to process experience, not just interpret it? What happens when feeling nothing is the most honest place to begin? What if healing isn’t coherence—but contrast? Equal parts clinical reflection, philosophical excavation, and unsentimental presence, this podcast is not about finding your higher self. It’s about learning to stay with what’s already here. Hosted by Todd Brossart, LCSW, BCD, founder of Somacology (psychedelic somatic therapy) and the Daily Mindfulness Lab, as well as an instructor candidate with the Psychedelic Somatic Institute, this podcast draws from Todd’s 17 years of clinical experience working in mental health, including his 12 years of service at the Department of Veterans Affairs outpatient mental health clinic. Todd’s approach is deeply informed by his own transformative journey following a near-death experience and lengthy hospitalization, which reshaped his understanding of trauma, healing, and resilience. Combining professional expertise with personal insight, Todd dives into evidence-based strategies for mindfulness, psychological flexibility, and trauma recovery. Tune in to explore how to reconnect with your body’s innate wisdom and achieve lasting well-being.
