Episode notes

"Your meat operating system is what runs everything before you get a chance to do anything about it." We can measure your brain speed. It's called P 300 D in neuroscience. And when your brain first gets an electrical signal that a sound happened, then the brain got the signal. There's a third of a second where your body is manipulating stuff and deciding whether it should show it to you. "I'm not Bruce Lee at ping pong, but my brain at least notices reality more quickly than is normal by a long shot"

How do you tap the power of laziness to improve neuro-fitness?

Your body evolved to save energy. It’s what kept you alive by ensuring you didn’t waste energy on unnecessary tasks. When you aren’t in life-threatening danger, the brain will always encourage rest. But in the modern world, if you give into this impulse too often, you might think you’re lazy.

I’m excited to have Dave Asprey back on the show to dive into this topic today. Dave is the Founder of Bulletproof Coffee, the Bulletproof Diet, a best-selling author, and is known as the father of biohacking. He’s here to talk about his latest book, Smarter Not Harder: The Biohacker’s Guide to Getting the Body and Mind You Want.

Laziness is natural and healthy. It fueled all human progress by leading to innovative ways to make work easier. Listen in, as Dave talks about how the laziness principle can help you biohack your way to a better body and a healthier brain.
