Luke Jensen is a pioneering explorer of human consciousness, a veteran, filmmaker, and the Founder & CEO of Tiwaz Awakening. Through his work, he fuses neuroscience, plant medicine shamanism, and adventure-based healing to push the boundaries of human potential and integrated well-being.

Luke’s journey began with military service in the Marine Corps and National Guard, including deployment with an Airborne infantry unit in Afghanistan. Shaped by resilience, discipline, and a relentless pursuit of understanding the human mind, he turned to personal healing and global exploration after his service. His path led him deep into South America, where he immersed himself in the traditions of Ayahuasca ceremonies and began living part-time in Peru. There, he combined firsthand experience with traditional plant medicine and rigorous study of neurotechnologies, including neurofeedback and qEEG brain mapping.
Under the mentorship of Dr. Richard Soutar, Luke has spent the last decade at the forefront of integrating brain science with the transformative power of sacred ceremony. His research and practice explore how entheogens influence neurological function and emotional healing, bridging ancestral wisdom with modern innovation.

As the creator and featured researcher in the documentary Crossed Paths, filmed in Peru’s Sacred Valley, Luke offers an unprecedented lens into the synergy of neurofeedback and plant medicine. The film captures real-time exploration of how qEEG-guided brain training and guided plant medicine ceremonies may complement one another in the pursuit of mental wellness, trauma resolution, and human flourishing.

Through Tiwaz Awakening, Luke continues to create immersive experiences that honor scientific integrity and spiritual depth, empowering individuals to reclaim their vitality and awaken their fullest potential. He remains deeply committed to advancing ethical, research-based approaches to consciousness exploration, while honoring the sacred traditions of indigenous healing lineages.
