About this podcast
The Umana Experience Podcast is a space that explores the Umana Technique and its impact. Nate was invited by hose Rachael as her first guest to share his journey into the work. In this video, Nate talks about his long background in energy work, beginning with Reiki at a young age, and how his path later expanded through Pellowah Energy Healing and ultimately Umana - recognising the Umana Technique was something new and arriving at the right time.
In this interview, Nate talks about being present in Melbourne when the earliest form of the Umana energy was coming through to Kachina Ma’an, and how he felt called to take part in the inaugural training. As the first student attuned during that training, Nate offers insight into what it was like to experience the technique at its very beginning.
What Nate shares in this episode
In this conversation, Nate reflects on his experience as both a practitioner and a recipient of Umana sessions, including:
How Umana supports people who are ready to move forward and grow
Why many clients describe sessions as joyful, expansive, and deeply settling
What can shift in the first 48 hours after an initial session as the work integrates
How clients often report clarity, lightness, euphoria, and renewed potential
A powerful moment where a client described leaving a session feeling calm and peaceful, later saying she had “diamonds in her eyes”
How Umana has changed Nate personally, bringing renewed purpose, direction, and confidence
Why he values remote sessions and how strong the sense of connection can be
How Umana supports resilience, perspective, and clearer decision-making in everyday life
Why growth through Umana is not about escaping challenges, but meeting life with greater steadiness
This interview introduces the Umana Technique grounded and relatable way, keeping the focus on lived experience rather than theory.
This episode offers a practitioner’s perspective rooted in direct experience from the very beginning of the Umana Technique. Nate shares how the work supports people not only spiritually, but in how they navigate work, relationships, challenges, and change.
He also speaks openly about life continuing to bring difficulties, and how Umana supports a quicker return to balance rather than promising constant bliss.
For those curious about Umana, this episode helps set realistic expectations while highlighting the depth and potential of the work.
