Former NFL Offensive Tackle Eben Britton speaks openly the NFL, opiates, and how cannabis saved him. After 6-years as a professional football player, Eben retired and became an advocate for responsible cannabis use. Who is Eben Britton? Eben Britton is a former American football offensive tackle who played six seasons in the National Football League (NFL). Selected 39th overall in the 2009 NFL draft, he spent four years with the Jacksonville Jaguars followed by two with the Chicago Bears, last playing football in 2014.Eben was born in New York City and raised in Los Angeles, California. Somewhere in his bi-coastal upbringing lies the essence of his being. A bridge between two worlds (the east and the west). Always finding peace in the middle of two extremes.His early years were filled with athletics and art. He fell in love with football and writing. Eben earned a degree in creative writing from the University of Arizona.Driven by a deep desire to overcome the adversity of his childhood, Eben battled his way to the NFL. His football career provided him with an in depth, firsthand experience of dealing with immense pain and trauma. In life after football, Eben was forced to learn and cultivate practices to allow for healing and restoration, bringing balance to the mind, body and spirit. Britton is an advocate for removing cannabis from the list of banned substances in the NFL. Britton says he used cannabis as a preferred method of pain management during his football career, and has cited the health risks associated with pharmaceutical painkillers as a reason why players should not be punished for choosing a natural alternative. Britton is a member of the Gridiron Cannabis Coalition, a group that advocates for the NFL to change its policy on cannabis He is also a member of the Doctors for Cannabis Regulation NFL steering committee. Britton revealed in a September 2016 interview with the New York Post that he used cannabis before three of the NFL games he played in. Britton says that in addition to relieving the pain of his injuries, cannabis also improved his mental concentration on the football field, and that the games he played after using were some of his best performances. Britton also estimated that over 50 percent of current players use cannabis and that the number could be as high as 75 percent.Britton is a board member of Athletes for Care, a group that advocates for athletes on various issues of health and safety including the use of cannabis as medicine. Through Athletes for Care, Britton co-hosts the Caveman Poet Society podcast along with Nate Jackson.Highlights[4:00] The source of Eben’s Spiritual Influence [11:45] Choosing the Football path of life[24:10] Eben's most difficult opponent[30:00] Dealing with injuries in the NFL[43:20] Overcoming infectious herniated disks[57:50] Using cannabis in the NFL[1:03:12] Becoming a Cannabis responsible use advocate[1:12:20] What excites Eben about the cannabis worldResourcesCannabis with Len MayThe Eben Flow PodcastEben's InstagramEben's Patron AccountNFL needs to stop blowing smoke when it comes to potSponsorsRaOpticsOur sponsor for today’s show is one of the two brands of blue light blockers that I actually recommend using.

Dr. Val Brown is the Founder of NeurOptimal. He is called the “trainer of neurofeedback trainers” and in this episode shares his background in the space. Dr. Brown covers his Five Phase Model of neurofeedback and how Neuroptimal actually uses their own Period Three Approach to track the data that goes to your central nervous system. Dr. Val explains the claims behind how NeurOptimal can transform your brain and performance, and even help with things like PTSD. Who is Dr. Valdeane W. Brown? Dr. Brown had a long and varied history in the field of mental health before even pursuing his Ph.D. in Psychology. For over 25 years he taught Continuing Medical Education courses across a wide range of clinical topics including Rapid Transformation of Borderline Phenomenology, Dual Diagnosed Clients, Dynamics of Family Therapy, Working With Angry Adolescents. For many years he was a featured and keynote speaker at numerous national and international conferences in the fields of neurofeedback, child psychology, Total Quality Management, and others. He developed and published the Five Phase Model of Neurofeedback which was the first and still the only, approach to clinical neurofeedback that integrated multiple protocols into a single comprehensive approach that could be used regardless of clinical presentation.With his background in mathematics, physics, computer programming, designing and implementing automated outcome studies as well as multimodal assessment, he was able to co-develop, with his wife Dr. Sue Brown, the Period Three Approach to neurofeedback. Their Approach was fundamental to their new and revolutionary neurofeedback system (later to become NeurOptimal®), showcasing their vision of Dynamical Neurofeedback™. Over time this was refined, always with an overarching commitment to safe, effective and effortless personal transformation that anyone can use. Now retired from actively programming, Dr. Brown directs the ongoing architectural development of NeurOptimal® as well as being intimately involved in ongoing Research and Development at Zengar.Highlights[4:20] Dr. Val’s Journey into Neurofeedback[14:03] The Five Phase Model of Neurofeedback[28:15] The Period Three Approach[38:02] Early exploration into neurofeedback[47:30] The NeurOptimal Experience[56:25] Treating symptoms with NeurOptimalResourcesDr. Barry Sterman Cats sleep studyDr. Susan BrownEEG Brain Computer InterfaceLaws of Form by George Spencer-BrownSponsorsSomavedic Somavedic is a functional and broadly accessible frequency therapy device harmonizing the negative effects of EMF on our bodies by leveraging the principle of controlled release of energy from minerals, combining an Eastern medicine approach with frequency therapy technology. That may sound a little out there, but there’s been a lot of research validating the properties of minerals and the effect of their specific vibrations on the ambient environment and the human body — not to mention the thousands of years that humans have used crystals for a variety of purposes. If you want to try it out yourself, you can get 10% off using the promo code BOOMER at somavedic.com.CAR.O.LYou don’t have time for that 45 minute jog. You need something fast, efficient, and leaves you wanting more. My favorite tool for this is the CAR.O.L.
