Anti-Aging Interventions, TRT, Cortisol, and How to Fix Your Metabolism with Dr. Kyle Gillett

Deciphering the impact of our dietary choices on our own health, social and cultural discrepancies, and the future of the environment, is increasingly challenging among the mass of information that most of us face daily. There is a case for eating beef that offers an opportunity for environmental restoration, preservation of traditional cultural practices, and an equal chance at health for as many populations as possible.  Today's guest, Robb Wolf, has done the research, isolated the facts, and uncovered revelations that debunk years of dietary dogma. You'll learn:  Crucial considerations that may be at odds with common nutritional propaganda. What industrial, monocropped food systems mean for the future of the planet. How consciously raising livestock can actually reverse climate change. Why the direction of Big Food hits those near the bottom of the socio-economic ladder the hardest. The dangers and dispassion behind the movement to eliminate global traditional food systems. Robb Wolf, a former research biochemist, is the New York Times & WSJ Best Selling author of The Paleo Solution and Wired To Eat.  Robb's newest book is Sacred Cow, co-authored by Diana Rodgers, R.D.  Robb has transformed the lives of hundreds of thousands of people around the world via his top ranked iTunes podcast, books and seminars.

Find Your Why and Lead with Purpose, Featuring Paul Epstein

Interested in connecting to your subconscious intelligence?  What about accessing deeper peace, creativity, intuition... and ultimately, the answers to navigate your own life's journey? It may surprise you that these states of heightened consciousness are truly accessible for everyone. Today's guest, Judith Pennington, combines the practices of deepening consciousness with the neuroscience of brain wave states to forge a path to true healing and personal transformation.  Judith is the founder of the Institute for the Awakened Mind, centered around electroencephalographic (EEG) biofeedback meditation for conscious evolution. This conversation between Ben and Judith is perfectly tuned in to the possibilities for reflective practices at the year's end!  Listen and learn: Immediate techniques to induce alpha brain waves states for awareness and healing. How to become more conscious of your decisions. The importance of mental and sensory associations to ground yourself into a peaceful state. Why intention is so vital to energetic practices. Tools to bring yourself into a parasympathetic, theta brain wave state. A breakdown of brain wave states from Judith's Mind Mirror Portal: Beta (38-14 Hz): conscious, external awareness.  Logical thought and intellect.  Often indicative of stress and anxiety in its highest frequencies and amplitudes. Alpha (14-8 Hz): a relaxed awareness, shifting towards internal states.  Activated in visualization and imagination.  The "bridge" that connects the conscious and subconscious mind. Theta (8-4 Hz): subconscious; long-term memory and dreaming; intuition and spiritual insight.  Connection to the core of the psyche and soul. Delta (4-0.5 Hz): unconscious mind; portal to universal consciousness; deep restorative sleep state. Gamma (30-100 Hz): superconscious awareness of peace and transcendence; triggered by love, compassion, and high amplitude delta/theta.  Associated with spiritual ecstasy and neurogenesis/neuroplasticity.

If I have to convince you that the best investment you can make is in yourself…. That being fit is not a temporary decision, but a commitment….

Simple Dietary Changes for Life-Changing Impact with Dr. Ted Naiman

Dr. Datis Kharrazian has spent decades paving a new way to health and wellness within the space of autoimmunity, long before the terms "gut microbiome" and "neuro-inflammation" were widely used.  Today, Dr. Kharrazian's understanding of neurological biomarkers, triggering environmental pollutants, and repopulation of the intestinal flora influences his highly-individualized approach to treatment which helps patients regain their vitality. Enhancing brain health and balancing autoimmune function are critical considerations for everyone, regardless of age or current health status.   Ben and Dr. Kharrazian debunk common health misconceptions and cover everything from the downstream effects of cortisol dysregulation, to how to make your home less toxic. Here's what you'll learn: Steps to IMMEDIATELY reduce the chemical load in your home and enhance your digestive health. The athlete-autoimmune connection that is often missed. The ONE compound that offers a huge boost to brain health. The importance of detoxification and autophagy (and how to support these processes). How you can optimize anti-inflammatory pathways of neuroglia (supporting brain cells) through KEY changes to your diet and lifestyle.

High Performance KPIs, Athlete Compensation, and HRV with Andy O'Brien

Feeling your attention being pulled in many directions, especially as the holidays have begun?  Time management is a challenge for many of us in this day and age!  Nir Eyal writes, speaks, and advises on how to get out of your own way, create simple habits to more effectively manage time, and ultimately become an indistractable human being -- a virtual superpower for any aspiring high performer. Coming from a background centered around the creation of habit-forming consumer products, Nir authored his first book, "Hooked", on persuasive technology.  Nir's second book, "Indistractable", focuses on personal habit formation within the lives of human beings.  The tools and techniques that Nir presents encourage productivity, focus, and success on a daily basis. Listen as Nir details his simple, yet powerful, mechanisms to make you a more effective human TODAY.  Tune in to learn: What distraction does to trick you.  When it's time to get out of your own way! (And how to do it.) Why scheduling your time is so important.  How to become indistractable in 4 steps.  Where conscious decisions and values come in to play.
