Temple Medicine is a Fort Lauderdale-based community initiative and Transformational Wellness Center rooted in regenerative practices, sacred lineage traditions, and whole-person healing. We are reimagining the temple as it once was—a sacred commons for communal healing, reciprocal care, and spiritual connection—offering contemporary rites of passage, wellness coaching, and transformational support for those walking the path of self and collective liberation.
At the heart of Temple Medicine are Matthew Koren (founder) and Brandon Barclay (partner).
Matthew is a Spiritual Guide, Certified Healer & Teacher and runs his transformational wellness center, Temple Medicine, aiming to reconnect clients with Self, Spirit and Community.
Since 2007, Matthew has spent over 10,000 hours coaching hundreds of clients in Fortune 1000 companies, venture backed startups, international non-profits, and for US government agencies.
Matthew’s approach assimilates the latest research in consciousness studies, psychology, business, organizational development, mindfulness and meditation, resonance and quantum field theory to support his clients through transformational processes that uplift and transcend.
He now serves as a mentor and guide for his clients at Temple Medicine. His affiliations include: Member of the Fort Lauderdale Chamber of Commerce, Member of the Holistic Chamber of Commerce, Member of the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, & Conscious Capitalism International.
Matthew Koren lives in Fort Lauderdale with his partner, and travels nationally and internationally to coach, consult and teach.
Brandon is a certified Transformational Wellness Practitioner with over 13 years of experience in traditional plant medicine lineages, especially along the path of Vegetalismo in Peru. Brandon is deeply trained in nutritional detox, addiction recovery, and psychedelic integration, and has held space for clients through holistic 1:1 coaching, lineage-informed ceremonies, and community rituals.
Brandon’s trauma-informed and non-dualistic approach—shaped by his own recovery journey, leadership development, and years as a Senior Coach with Being True To You—meets people at any point in their transformation. From ceremony prep and integration to long-term wellness mentorship, Brandon creates safe, sovereign containers for returning to Self, Spirit, and Community.
Temple Medicine is not a retreat center—it’s a living culture. Through consistent practice and invitation, we are scaling new paradigms of wellness and connection. From community dinners and fire ceremonies to immersive coaching and regenerative programming, we gather people into a culture of inter-being, where all are reminded that “you are the medicine” and “all healing is self-healing.”
