We’re heading deep into the wild with one of the best possible tour guides: Daniel Vitalis, a modern-day hunter-gatherer, a great friend, the founder of the nutrition company Surthrival, and the person who taught me so much of what I know about living a nature-integrated life (without moving into a bunker in the middle of the woods forever). Daniel’s newest endeavor is WildFed, a show, podcast, and lifestyle brand inspiring others to live a wild-food journey of their own and participate in much-needed conversations on sustainably harvesting, cooking, and eating wild foods. I’m lucky enough to have seen some of season one already and you are not going to want to miss this. Because WildFed is not about traveling to exotic locales and it’s definitely not about doing it for the ‘Gram. it’s about the wild food that’s freely available in your local landscape, at the edges of your town or city, and sometimes just outside your door. It’s an endeavor to undomesticate yourself and experience the physical, emotional, and spiritual benefits of reacquainting yourself with nature and the bounty it provides. I’m so grateful for Daniel helping me get this podcast off the ground (he was my first guest back in episode two!) and for teaching me so much in this episode — and we really get into it. This interview went some places I didn’t quite expect, but man, I’m so happy it did. Warning: if you live a plant-based or vegan lifestyle, this might be a hard episode to listen to. But, regardless of what your food and lifestyle choices are, I encourage everyone to keep their hearts and minds open and give this epic conversation a chance. I think that WildFed and the information that Daniel is sharing will be transformative for a lot of people, especially if they take part in the interactive season one experience. Get prepared. We’re about to go deep into the wilds with Daniel Vitalis.   Topics Discussed In This Episode: What you can expect from ReWild season one Why even the highest-quality grocery stores in the U.S. are nutritionally lacking and, at times, facilitating the decline of our health Why Daniel quit veganism after 10 years and started eating meat (and the cognitive dissonance between what many vegan communities espouse and how they live) The sad fact that some people receive death threats from people 'opposed to killing' when they go back to animal foods Did you know that there has never been a civilization of vegan humans? Lifelong vegans: a mythical creature (as are lifelong carnivores) Why the vegan diet requires supplementation to work How hunting-gathering connects every living human, regardless of where they live, to their ancestors Why do some people who oppose hunting give a blanket pass to native indigenous people while casting condemnation on Caucasian, rural folk? The Kingdom Hierarchy: Why humans value the lives of certain animals over others, and all animals over insects, plants, etc. Why it might be abusive to force carnivorous pets — and perhaps even children — to eat a vegan diet A whole lot of BS around apples Do cartoons and stuffed animals help disconnect us from our hunter-gatherer roots? How animals suffer a more painful death at the hands of wild predators than by hunters How to deal with the potential risk of eating contaminated wild game Why Daniel begin foraging wild plants and fungi The surprising lack of species variety in supermarket fruits and vegetables Why wild game and plants are far more nutritious than farmed foods, and even wild game isn’t all made equal How the ego of hunting sometimes gets in the way of sustainability and nutrition The devastating environmental impact of factory farmed animals and plants & how regenerative farming might just save us The wild game that Daniel hunts and eats, from deer to pigeons to iguanas How hunters and gatherers help thin out invasive species of plants and animals Why Daniel believes that, in many cases, hunters understand and protect the environment more than city-dwelling tree huggers The US has the most effective wildlife management and conservation program in the world — but it’s still falling short when it comes to protecting plants and fungi How ocean fish stock can be protected and why it’s the safest fish to eat Some of the culinary masterpieces Daniel has created from foraged and hunted foods What’s new at his outstanding supplement company, Surthrival, and what my go-to products from them are   More about this episode.

Before we get into today’s episode, I just want to thank all of you. I started these Q&A episodes a couple of months ago as an experiment and I’ve been blown away by the positive feedback and questions you’ve been sending my way. These are a blast for me to do and I love that it’s becoming a regular thing now. I also want to say that I’m not a doctor. I don’t even play one on TV. However, I have spent the last few years finding and talking to the most forward-thinking doctors, wellness experts, spiritual leaders, and biohackers around — and I love sharing what I’ve learned with all of you. If you want to ask some questions, come join us in The Life Stylist Podcast Facebook Group! It’s completely free, and you can even watch these Q&A sessions live in the future. Jonathan wants to know more about hyperbaric oxygen chambers, which are actually great for everything from travel recovery to managing Lyme disease to treating erectile dysfunction. Tiffany asked about my rewilding experiences and how I strike a balance between the “wild,” natural lifestyle and modern biohacks. Finally, Peter wants to optimize his gut health. A classic that never goes out of style, and something that I’ve actually been working on a lot over the last few months. Listen to learn more — and, again, thank you all for making this community so supportive and inquisitive.   Topics Discussed In This Episode: What it’s like to be in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber Why it’s the pressure, not the oxygen, that makes the hyperbaric oxygen treatments a transformative healing experience There are other ways to get more oxygen in your brain and blood stream, but none are as safe or effective as hyperbaric oxygen chambers Why I use oxygen chambers before and after flying How to find an oxygen chamber near you The #1 biohack to support your health — oh, and did I mention that it’s free? How you can harness technology to get closer to nature Becoming a modern hunter-gatherer How to safely allow your body to absorb as much sun as possible Dealing with a low libido or even erectile dysfunction? I have a couple hacks to help you out How pornography can screw up your circadian rythym — and what you can do about it The healing and grounding benefits of natural hot springs How to make an ice bath in your home, if you can’t find cold a natural spring-fed body of water near you Primary water: the water that the Earth makes itself A highly underappreciated hack: (safely) interacting with and observing animals Why limiting our range of movement is one of the biggest contributors to our society’s rapidly declining health Escaping our indoor zoo to move like a wild human ape Why I’ve struggled to hack my own gut health & what I’ve figured out about gut recovery Don’t just guess how to address your gut health — do some tests Viome: the best way to determine what foods are right for your body How a functional medicine practitioner can help you optimize your unique microbiome Why rectal ozone is a great option for someone with leaky gut (which is most of us these days) Why you should avoid all food preservatives How to cut glyphosate out of your diet, which can absolutely wreck your gut Why your gut health may actually be caused by too few enzymes, not too many Why you might want to consider colon cleansing, especially if you’re thinking about fasting in the near future   More about this episode.   Connect with Luke on social media to learn how to take your lifestyle to the next level, plus catch exclusive live interviews & events: INSTAGRAM - @lukestorey // https://www.instagram.com/lukestorey/ FACEBOOK - https://www.facebook.com/MrLukeStorey/ TWITTER - @MrLukeStorey // https://twitter.com/MRLUKESTOREY YOUTUBE - https://www.youtube.com/c/LukeStorey THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: JUST THRIVE.

Paleo f(x)™ is one of the first, biggest, and most successful conferences in the health and wellness space — so, if you’re reading this, there’s a good chance you’ve already heard of or been to it. But how much do you know about the Paleo f(x)™ co-founders, Keith and Michelle Norris, and their incredible story? Unfortunately, as is too often the case, this story begins with a tragedy, when their daughter Brittani was killed in a car accident just days before her 23rd birthday. But in that short time, Brittani managed to transform countless lives. And at her memorial service, hundreds of people grieved with Keith and Michelle and shared the profound ways that Brittani had touched their lives.  It was at that moment that Keith and Michelle knew they had to carry on her legacy by giving back and helping others transform their lives for the better. And, seven years after the first Paleo f(x)™ conference, I think it’s clear that they’re off to a great start.  This episode is also a great starting point for anyone who is confused about what Paleo is or has struggled to bring aspects of the ancestral lifestyle into their daily lives. Plus, we get a glimpse at Keith and Michelle’s huge plans for the future and how they plan to change more lives — and the world — for the better.   Topics Discussed In This Episode: The psychotic break that birthed Paleo f(x)™ Why f(x)™? What does that mean? Keith and Michelle are OGs in the Paleo community, first changing their lifestyles in the mid-‘00s Why Michelle started the Paleo diet kicking and screaming — and the incredible transformation that occurred What exactly the Paleo diet and lifestyle are & aren’t The surprising number of similarities between the Paleo diet and a vegetarian diet A model for both environmental sustainability and sustainable human health The problem with Paleo right now What holistic, regenerative farming practices look like How EPIC Bars is changing General Mills, not the other way around Living in a human zoo of our own design The seven pillars of health that you have to focus on if you want to be a fully capable and flourishing human Small steps you can make to become more aware of your body The world of Paleo psychotherapy What we’ve created, as a species, through plant medicine How plant medicine saved their marriage How Paleo f(x)™ hires using Human Design   More about this episode.

Ninka-Bernadette Mauritson is a journalist, health influencer, bestselling writer, and health coach. Her son was diagnosed with autism at the age of four, but she was able to turn all of his symptoms around and she believes that the current autism epidemic is a “big wakeup call” to mothers and the Western world. For years, her son spent weekends in institutions due to constant screaming, tantrums, aggression, sleeplessness, and no eye contact. No one in their family was sleeping through the night. But, together, they were able to eliminate every symptom in just three years.  Because Ninka wasn’t willing to keep playing the victim, which she sees a lot of in the autism community and she experienced firsthand. She started traveling around the world to learn from doctors who specialized in nutrition and lifestyle for autism. She had to find a way to respect her son’s bio-individuality, understand him, and overcome picky eating and overwhelm.  Ninka not only succeeded but found a holistic method that no one else in the autism community was talking about. She didn’t understand why at the time, but she knew that sharing this was her life purpose; she needed to help other families get the tools that she used to help her son and herself.  I know this is a sensitive topic for a lot of people, but I encourage you to listen before you react. There are a lot of really interesting stories and data here, including some new research on biotypes and bio-individuality that I learned about for the first time in this conversation. I learned a lot and, if you give this episode a chance, I know you will too. If you are a parent of an autistic child, check out Ninka-Bernadette’s Free Autism Turnaround Mindset & Meditation Course. This is the #1 strategy to replace stress, tantrums, and confusion with peace and clarity without involving your child — a critical first step that every parent needs to make.   Topics Discussed In This Episode: Vaccines aren’t the root cause of the autism epidemic The beautiful, unexpected, and only way of turning the autism epidemic around, starting with moms Why the whole vaccine debate and the constant state of chasing someone or something to blame or the next magic supplement, protocol, or shiny object to fix the symptoms is a massive sidetrack and distraction How autism ended up healing PTSD for Ninka, connect her to her purpose, and helped her find her twin flame.  Why the foundation for healing is outdoors and inside you and why no supplement, diet or doctor can help you before you accept the sacred message in ANY symptom How moms can get addicted to autism and being a victim 5 things you can do right now if your child has autism symptoms Why changing or even reversing so-called “diseases” (including autism) is actually simpler than we think How autism starts years before pregnancy Why you can’t choose diet and supplements without knowing your biotype How most popular diets, superfoods, and supplements can make many symptoms related to mental disorders worse Why testing, detox, protocols, and doctors (holistic or traditional) + most “one-size-fits-all” clean diets, superfoods, and supplements DONT work Some new data that anyone with depression and mood swings will want to know Crazy autism transformation stories you will find hard to believe What autism and plant medicines like Ayahuasca have in common The brain plasticity boosting exercises that helped Ninka’s son completely change the course of his education   More about this episode.

Back in episode 221, the Wellness Mama herself, Katie Wells, helped answer my biggest questions on birth, babies, and homeschooling kids. I also had the opportunity to go on The Wellness Mama Podcast, and I wanted to share the awesome conversation we had in case you haven’t heard it yet. We delve into some of the darkest moments of my life, moving forward after trauma, becoming The Life Stylist — and, of course, we talk about raising kids, including our thoughts on circumcision (spoiler: I’m not a fan). Honestly, I could talk to Katie about this stuff for hours. She’s a wealth of wisdom and I love the way she’s supporting a generation of young parents who want to raise conscious children. So give it a listen, and if you enjoy it, go show Katie some love!   Topics Discussed In This Episode: Luke’s tumultuous childhood, and how he overcame drug addiction to become a successful fashion stylist and motivational speaker The spiritual awakenings that led him to find meaning in suffering How to teach kids to be vulnerable but at the same time have boundaries Tips to increase self-awareness and the ability to move forward after trauma Luke’s experience with Ayahuasca Our thoughts on the practice of circumcision Two of the best health biohacks (that are free and available to everyone!)   Connect with Luke on social media to learn how to take your lifestyle to the next level, plus catch exclusive live interviews & events: INSTAGRAM - @lukestorey // https://www.instagram.com/lukestorey/ FACEBOOK - https://www.facebook.com/MrLukeStorey/ TWITTER - @MrLukeStorey // https://twitter.com/MRLUKESTOREY YOUTUBE - https://www.youtube.com/c/LukeStorey HELP SUPPORT THIS SHOW!

An old proverb says, “The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to counsel.” Really, this is why I started this podcast in the first place. My goal for the past few years has been reversing all the damage that Young Luke did to this meat suit and healing the scars left in my subconscious that continue to undermine my life and success — and only a fool would try to do that alone. That’s also why I created The Life Stylist Podcast Facebook Group. Not because I consider myself wise counsel, but because this group is stacked with some extremely experienced biohackers, forward thinkers, and spiritual seekers that can help answer just about any question you or I might have. But I have learned a few things from the experts I talk to on this show and I’m still researching new biohacks, methodologies, and spiritual practices almost every single day, and I love sharing what I’m experimenting with and what’s working for me. So, today I’m going to answer a few more questions from the group. Kate is struggling with the transition from corporate life to the entrepreneur life and she’s trying to get more clarity by doing some inner work, Hannah wants to know more about my favorite supplements, and Ryan is curious about some of the things I do routinely to optimize my health, outside of my daily routine. I have so much fun doing these episodes and I can’t thank you all enough for making this such a badass, inquisitive tribe. If you have any questions that you want to ask the group or you want to be answered on a future episode, come join us!   Topics Discussed In This Episode: The transformative potential of a 10-day zen meditation retreat My experience on a 21-day silent retreat (that I cheated on a little bit) Why Byron Katie’s The Work is one of the first things I’d recommend to anyone looking inward One of the most transformative, psychedelic experiences you can have, without taking any psychedelics The experience of Kundalini & why you shouldn’t be scared away by all the white clothes Your options for plant medicine retreats & ongoing medical research on the benefits of psychedelics My favorite question from A Course in Miracles  The root of spiritual advancement There’s more to 12-step programs than you might be aware of The wisdom of David R. Hawkins, one of my favorite spiritual thought leaders A new biohack I’ve discovered recently — Dynamic Neural Retraining System (DNRS) by Annie Hopper — and how it’s helped transform my dad’s life What you can learn from Vedic and Transcendental meditation practices The ONE supplement I’d take for the rest of my life (if I had to choose) Naturally creating your own Vitamin D Why I’ll probably be in therapy for the rest of my life (and why that’s a good thing)   More about this episode.

Back when Dr. Scott Sherr started learning about integrative and holistic medicine, pretty much everything that wasn’t in a little orange bottle got lumped under the umbrella term “alternative medicine” — which is to say, yes, Dr. Sherr is a real medical doctor, but he’s a very progressive health practitioner and he’s been exposed to these ideas for pretty much his entire life. So, while there’s no love lost between me and the medical-industrial complex, I have a lot of respect for people like Dr. Sherr who advocate for more effective and more personalized healthcare solutions for everyone. And, in this episode, he will teach you everything you need to know about Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), a relatively new medical technology with profound healing potential. If you’re not familiar, HBOT involves sitting in a high-pressure oxygen environment. The oxygen-rich air drives up to 1200% more oxygen into the bloodstream and other fluids, super-saturating the body with oxygen to drive the regeneration of damaged tissue, strengthen the immune system, and provide the body with greater opportunity for healing.  Some of the recoveries that Dr. Sherr has seen seem downright miraculous, but I think that’s just a glimpse into one possible future of human medical science. Our bodies are capable of tremendous things — and as we start to unlock that through technology like Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, we are going to start doing the impossible. Well, if profit and regulation don’t drive us all into an early grave first.   Topics Discussed In This Episode: Growing up without ever going to a conventional medical doctor and then choosing to go to medical school The more traditional routes that a doctor can take are tantalizing — but when you really want to help people, it doesn’t matter The medical history of using pressure to change human physiology Why hyper-oxygenating an area in the human body can prevent it from dying Why both allopathic medicine and crazy hippies agree that HBOT is awesome How biohackers can optimize their time in hyperbaric chambers Combining hyperbaric oxygen therapy with sensory deprivation chambers Why people in hyperbaric oxygen chambers are better at multitasking How hyperbaric treatment can improve erectile dysfunction Why reversing or mitigating the effects of aging isn’t actually as radical as you might think Working with past guest Dr. Ted Achacoso The nootropic we took before starting this conversation   More about this episode.

The last time I talked to John Gray — author of the most well-known and trusted relationship book of all time, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus — we had an incredible conversation about his spiritual journey... before we turned on the microphone! So, when I had a chance to sit down with John at the Health Optimisation Summit, I wasn’t going to miss my second opportunity to record some of these stories.  From partying at Woodstock, to hanging out with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, to participating in an energy healing practice that saved someone from a fresh cobra bite, we explore the twists and turns of John’s spiritual journey and how it has influenced his work on sex and relationships. And there’s a lot more overlap there than you might think. Because, whether you’re seeking to nurture your personal relationship or do the inner work to foster the relationship with yourself, your goal is ultimately the same: transformation, peace, and fulfillment. This is a peek into the life of a man who has helped thousands of people radically transform their lives, and it offers a lot of insight into how anyone can apply these spiritual principles and universal truths in really practical ways.   Topics Discussed In This Episode: How The Beatles deeply influenced John’s journey, including the meditation practice that he teaches today The high stakes of following your inspiration and genius Most of your suffering comes from too much attention — but John knows how we can stop internalizing all of that negative energy and bring in fresh energy Why most people avoid opportunities, consciously or subconsciously Lessons John learned as the assistant to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Witnessing the seemingly unexplainable People who do exceptional things aren’t born that way — anyone can develop exceptional abilities with practice How you can channel energy into and out of your body (and when you might want to) A mantra that will help you start noticing the gap between your thoughts and your self Everyone has access to all of the masculine and feminine qualities Spiritual practices for grounding yourself in the feminine or the masculine What everyone needs to know about intention and attachment If you’re angry, you’re not being masculine How masculine individuals can better communicate with feminine individuals & vice versa Some good ol’ fashioned biohacking: the one supplement that everyone can benefit from but barely anyone talks about & the enzymatic shake will fuel your brain How better brain health leads to more enjoyable sex + other tips men can use to increase pleasure for themselves and their partners   More about this episode.

Having these long and deep conversations requires an intense amount of focus, and sometimes I try to use coffee to help me stay alert. But sometimes I get a little too hyped — and, honestly, it’s because I’m straight up ODing on caffeine (you can learn more about your relationship with caffeine, you can check out Candor’s Caffeine Type Quiz). So I was stoked to find Candor, who make this delicious Coconut Matcha Nootropic Latte. It still has a little bit of caffeine, but combined with ingredients like green tea l-theanine, which is clinically proven to boost attention and mood when paired with caffeine. You can use code ‘LIFESTYLIST’ to get 10% off your new favorite coffee at ChooseCandor.com. AND… JOOVV. If you’ve been listening for a while or following Luke on social media, you’ve probably seen him raving about red light therapy, or photobiomodulation. There are over 3000 published clinical papers on light therapy – over 200 being double-blind, randomized, and placebo-controlled – making this arguably the most well-researched bio hack in Luke’s arsenal. Some of the benefits include increased skin health, better muscle recovery, better sexual performance, and reduced joint pain and inflammation.
