The Motivated Mind

We often underestimate the importance of quality rest, spending around 2,920 hours annually in slumber. While we recognize its value, achieving high-quality sleep remains elusive for many. Simultaneously, we are awake for roughly 6,205 hours each year, predominantly working, and often struggle to maintain focus and productivity. The answer to these intertwined challenges lies in reinstalling our natural brain functions with high-quality supplements that feed our brain the precursor nutrients needed for natural hormone production. I recently discovered BrainLuxury, a company offering these solutions, finding them highly effective. Intrigued, I reached out, leading to a conversation with their CEO and Chief Science Advisor discussing the impact of quality sleep and poor sleep on brain performance, common misunderstandings regarding sleep aids, products, and bedtime routines, and the inspiration and science and data behind the BrainLuxury products.

However, the reality is that feeling good is an ongoing process, not a passive result awaiting us. Imagine feeling good as a muscle that needs regular exercise. Just like we don't attain physical fitness magically, but through working out consistently to build our strength, feeling good demands continuous effort and practice. In this episode, I discuss how to get good at feeling good.
