Wearable tech to help fight bad habits - Maneesh Sethi #315
Maneesh Sethi is the mad scientist behind Pavlok- a wearable that retrains your brain. He’s worked with major influencers like Tim Ferris, he’s a famous DJ in Berlin, and he’s even hosted a TV pilot on the Travel Channel. Is there anything that this guy can’t do? The Pavlok wristband was invented after Sethi stumbled upon a pamphlet of a 60’s aversion research. Sethi had severe ADHD and couldn’t focus or complete a single task or project without losing concentration. After landing the study reports, Sethi paid someone to hit him every time he strayed from the work at hand. This method proved useful and led to the invention of the first Pavlok prototype. It's just grown from there. Today's podcast partner is CogniBiotics, the breakthrough mood-enhancing formula made by BiOptimizers.

Is your home making you sick? David Milburn #311
Asthma and allergies are on the rise along with other ailments caused by polluted indoor air; such as headaches, dizziness, depression, respiratory infections, throat and ear infections, colds and flu. The WHO has listed air quality as the single biggest environmental threat to public health. The air we breathe is directly linked to our health. Poor quality air is consistently linked to a laundry-list of health complaints. But what about our mood and energy? If avoiding getting sick, less allergies, and improved sleep counts as managing meh, then cleaner air works. If you live on a busy road with lots of traffic, this is especially important. And while most of us think that air pollution is something that happens outside, 90% of our time is on average spent indoors. And the air we breathe inside is often even worse. It can be up to five times more polluted with mold, chemical gases, carpet fibers, dust, bacteria, viruses, pollution and toxins from overcooked food (a big one). I use an Air Angel, mainly in my bedroom, and I genuinely have noticed a difference in my stuffy nose levels (technical term) overnight. It's awesome. My sleep’s improved considerably. The first time I used it I felt like I’d been breathing in lovely cool forest air all night. Their technology was originally developed by NASA and the research shows that it kills 99 percent of allergens, odors, germs, and viruses including, incredibly, Covid 19. Check out the research on their site. There’s a 10% discount code at this link. And David Milburn is an air expert at Air Angel, and he's my guest today. Talking of breathing in good stuff.... today's podcast partner is the completely natural and incredible Fum.
