The Power of Recovery and Holistic Health
In this chapter, the importance of recovery for high performance is explored, highlighting the detrimental effects of constant stimulation and the need for quiet time. The discussion also connects physical exercise with cognitive performance, emphasizing how workouts can inspire creativity while addressing parenting challenges and environmental concerns. Various biohacking techniques, including skincare treatments and breathwork, are shared as means to enhance overall well-being.
Get ready for a fast-paced and entertaining episode as Angela Foster flips roles with Tony Wrighton on Biohacking News! After their in-depth Monday conversation on mindset, identity, and longevity, this lighter follow-up dives into the quirks of the latest trends in health—from the viral “honey diet” to CGMs and marshmallows as part of your biohacking toolkit.

ABOUT THE GUEST
Tony Wrighton
Bestselling Author, Broadcaster, and Human Performance Expert
I live in sunny Portugal with my family, where I spend my time travelling, playing sport, and occasionally butchering the Portuguese language (but trying my best).
I'm a bestselling author published in 13 languages, host of the Biohacking News podcast, and an expert in behaviour change, health optimisation, and human performance.
Before turning my focus fully to my author career, I spent 15 years as a national broadcaster, hosting shows for Sky News, Sky Sports, and ITV — good times, although I don't miss the 3am alarms.
These days, I help experts, entrepreneurs, and high performers transform their health, behaviour, and impact. And perhaps my biggest (ahem) flex: I'm the world's bestselling histamine intolerance author. Life’s full of surprises.
I trained in Neuro-Linguistic Programming to the highest level with Richard Bandler, Paul McKenna, and Andy Smith, alongside further certifications in coaching leadership, EFT, and energy psychology. This work now underpins my coaching across health, mindset, and human performance.
I also work with high-level experts and authors to publish impactful books through my Premium Publishing Support program. If you'd like to explore working together, get in touch.
