The Life Stylist

Darin Olien is probably the only kid who did a grapefruit cleanse during middle school in Small Town, Minnesota – and those three days set the course for the rest of his life. It was the first time that Darin realized how the things he put into his body either healed him or hurt him.And Darin needed a lot of healing. Born prematurely and only three-and-a-half pounds, Darin grew up feeling weak and fragile. Later, a football injury broke his body again. But every time Darin perceived weakness, he saw that as an opportunity to make a shift and do something about it.So Darin started eating superfoods, picked up some dumbbells, and stumbled upon a simple recipe for transformation: make a choice and follow it with action.Today, Darin is bringing his hard-won wisdom to the rest of the world as an exotic superfood expert, supplement formulator, and environmental activist who travels the planet to discover new and underutilized medicinal plants – and I can’t get enough of his latest discovery.Darin found the exotic baru nut, or Barukas, in Brazil. These little guys are packed full of healing goodness: anti-aging antioxidants, good fats for brain fuel, plenty of fiber, muscle-building protein, and incredible amounts of disease-fighting micronutrients that your body craves. On top of that, they taste delicious, somewhere between an almond, cashew, and peanut.So if you want the benefits of the healthiest superfoods on the planet plus a flavor better than almost any other legume, it’s time to hop on the Barukas train. Topics Discussed In This Episode: How Darin’s body called him to use plants as medicine The injury that changed the course of Darin’s life What’s wrong with the commercial wellness industry Why all superfoods and supplements available in stores are not made equal How both Luke and Darin ended up working with Beachbody Discovering and resurrecting the use of ancient superfoods Helping people and areas around the world become more sustainable through environmental activism Darin’s most exciting ethnobotanist adventures in places like Bhutan, Brazil, and Peru Why moringa is one of the most powerful, all-inclusive plants on the planet (and why there is no great moringa on the market) How creating a sustainable economic engine can help provide higher quality superfoods and support indigenous people The downsides of regulatory certifications Creating more transparency in the supply chain of almost everything The scariest thing that has happened on Darin’s superfood hunting excursions The philosophical realizations Darin has been gifted by the people he has met in his travels How Darin is bringing the unique magic of Barukas to the West   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:TONIC WELLNESS BOUTIQUE.

The Life Stylist is about building the ultimate lifestyle based on the most powerful principles of health and spirituality – and there's no one better to talk to about the fitness side of things than John Wolf, the Chief Fitness Officer for Onnit and a phenom in the fitness industry.Not only do the unconventional fitness systems pioneered by John and the rest of the folks at Onnit change you physiologically, but they also change you emotionally and psychologically. And those gains are just as significant as muscle mass or range of movement, if not more.Going into your local YMCA or Gold's Gym and lifting weights is all well and good, but you deserve better than the norm.Because adopting conventional mindsets and conventional activities will only yield you conventional results.Do you want to create a lifestyle that is unconventional and transform your mind and body into something exceptional? Want a community that offers vital support?Then you have to check out the wisdom John shares in this episode.Topics Discussed In This Episode: Belcampo, the best place in LA for good, clean farm-to-table food Starting martial arts at just four years old & how that helped shape John into the man he is today The dark period of John’s life: when he started doing meth and how he found himself on the side of a freeway How John got into the fitness world The open company culture of Onnit & their cosmonaut experiences How an alternative fitness system changes you, physiologically and emotionally How the functional fitness movement allows you to train hard, but also safely Creating a framework of early and frequent success, with limitations on how frequent failure occurs relative to an individual’s resiliency towards failure. The natural movements that every human being should be able to use as an adult, but that many of us lose due to our sedentary lifestyle (and how you can regain movement) What you can do to proactively integrate body support and recovery into your active lifestyle   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ALTERRA PURE.

A lot of people are struggling to live in our modern world, with all of the chemicals in our packaged foods and the bombardment of electromagnetic frequencies and radiation going through our body every day, but our guest Dr. Anne Cooper helps people get their lives back. Earlier in the week, we talked to the Deuterium Duo, Dr. Que Collins & Dr. Laszlo Boros, about what the heck deuterium is and how it’s contributing to the slow and steady degradation of our bodies on a cellular level. Dr. Cooper is their partner, operating as the Patient Manager and Healthcare Professional Coordinator at the Center for Deuterium Depletion. With expertise as both a natural and a functional medicine practitioner, Dr. Cooper can help both patients and other healthcare professionals understand deuterium depletion. She guides the day-to-day therapy patients go through and bridges any communication gap between the Center for Deuterium Depletion's principal and chief scientists training in allopathic medicine and the training received by chiropractors, naturopaths, acupuncturists, herbalists, nutritionists, and other healthcare professionals. We all deserve the ability to thrive in our world, without being forced to move off the grid. And while there's a lot our society could change to reduce the damage we're causing to our bodies, we can't necessarily control that – but we can start our own internal healing process. Are you looking for ways to reduce the stress on your body? Do you want to assure that your body isn't breaking down by the time you retire? Want to add a few more tools to your biohacking toolbox? Then you have to check out this in-depth interview with Dr. Anne Cooper.   Topics Discussed In This Episode: Dr. Cooper’s extensive medical background and credentials: Clinical Nutrition, Applied Kinesiology, Functional Medicine,  Energetic Medicine, Herbal Medicine, Acupuncture & Traditional Chinese Medicine The one tiny but significant neutron that gives deuterium its unique properties How your metabolic system works, on a cellular level, and how deuterium slows it all down Why we all need confidence and hope – and how these incredible doctors provide it The natural modalities employed by the Center for Deuterium Depletion Luke’s personal experience with deuterium depleted water How NAD (Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is related to mitochondrial function and ATP (adenosine triphosphate) production The simple science behind a healthy diet What Cignature Health’s D-Terminator Mask does & how you can use it How quickly most people reach their deuterium sweet spot using the deuterium depletion protocol Is fruit bad for us? Why we actually need very small amounts of deuterium, especially when we’re young Which foods are high in deuterium & what foods you should try to avoid Dr. Gábor Somlyai, the grandfather of deuterium depletion How you can get low deuterium water Supplements and other “healthy” products that are high in deuterium Keeping your pets healthy by reducing their deuterium levels Biohacking tools for a healthier and less deuterium-filled lifestyle   More about this episode.

Today we're talking about an element that you probably didn't learn about in school, deuterium, and how it is likely contributing to the slow but steady degeneration of the human population. Our guests are Dr. Que Collins and Dr. Laszlo Boros, who are leading experts working to educate people on deuterium through the Center for Deuterium Depletion so that we can heal our bodies and improve the health of future generations.So what exactly is deuterium?It is a rare isotope of hydrogen (only 0.000155% of hydrogen atoms) that contains a proton and a neutron in its nucleus, and the extra neutron doubles the mass of this type of hydrogen atom.And when two deuteriums combine with oxygen, the resulting substance is referred to as “heavy” water, 2H2O, because of the additional mass. Although heavy water tastes and looks the same as ordinary water, it doesn't behave the same: it has a higher boiling point, a lower freezing point, and ice cubes made with heavy water will sink in ordinary water.These differences demonstrate that the presence of Deuterium can change chemical behavior.So why does that matter?Well, hydrogen is in the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the water we drink, and as we take hydrogen into our body, it becomes part of our blood, organs, DNA, and everything else that makes us who we are.So when deuterium builds up in your body, it changes chemical reactions at a cellular level and has devastating effects on your metabolism.Deuterium buildup can affect your ability to create and use energy, limit your DNA's ability to replicate, change how you respond to clinical treatments, and generally change, on a fundamental level, how your body works and, as a result, who you are.So sit down and get ready for Deuterium 101 because the doctors are about to share some information that everyone on the planet needs to know. Topics Discussed In This Episode: What is this thing called deuterium? How does deuterium building up in our body destroy our metabolism? The natural things our ancestors did to regulate deuterium in their bodies How much deuterium is a problem? Luke’s deuterium results from a breath and saliva test How deuterium breaks down three-dimensional structures & why this is detrimental How our society’s problematic diet is contributing to deuterium buildup The relationship between deuterium and diabetes, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and Lyme disease How you can eat a deuterium-depleted diet Is fruit a good thing to include in your diet? The metabolic water that you create in your body (yeah, you create your own water!) Why the camel is the mascot of the deuterium movement   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Tonic Wellness Boutique.

What if Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases are preventable?What if our choices at the grocery store cash register, and the decisions we make when we’re craving a snack, are contributing to or causing dementia?Those are the questions that drove Max Lugavere – health and science journalist, brain food expert, and the co-author of the New York Times bestseller Genius Foods –  to create his upcoming documentary Bread Head, a first-of-its-kind film about taking back the fate of our defining human characteristic: Our brains.Bread Head is also an incredibly personal story for Max because it documents his mother’s battle with a neurodegenerative disease. Unfortunately, there aren’t many viable interventions once symptoms start to appear. You’re just prescribed glorified biochemical band-aids and sent on your merry way. Max found that experience unsettling, and it drove him to pursue real answers.To Max, our current dementia epidemic didn't make sense.  The human body and mind can’t be designed to fall apart so dramatically as we get older. He’s determined to reverse the commonly held belief that getting older means eventually losing your mental capacities and becoming dependent on the medical care system. Or has he sometimes calls it- the sick care system.Through Max’s tireless research he’s making some very promising discoveries about how our diet and lifestyle choices shape the future of our brain’s health.This episode will teach you the real truth about how lifestyle and diet affect our health.It turns out that changes in the brain begin decades before symptoms develop, so the absolute best way we can move the needle on neurodegenerative disease is by minimizing risk when we have the chance. And every day, we make choices that move the needle one way or another.So what choices are you going to make today? You can start by diving into this thought-provoking conversation, then share it with someone you know who wants to keep their mind young and nimble. Topics Discussed In This Episode: How we trick our brains into believing that carbs and sugar are our friends Max’s extremely personal relationship with degenerative brain disease Searching for the links between Alzheimer’s and other chronic diseases Why the low fat craze was one of the worst things to happen to the American diet The average American consumes a mind-boggling 300g of carbohydrates per day How salt + butter + carbs pushes your brain to a bliss point that renders self-control futile The oils that you should definitely avoid or remove from your diet How to identify the best olive to purchase, and how to avoid fakes Why you should be thinking about the nutrient density of your diet The correlation between grains, gluten, and your cognitive ability The fact that there is no biological requirement for grains in our diet whatsoever Why saunas and cold therapy have so many health benefits Shopping Bread Head around at festivals Becoming truth-seekers who question authority Being skeptical, but never cynical   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ONNIT.

Warning: I was tripping when I recorded this episode.Before recording this interview, Energy Muse co-founders Heather Askinosie and Timmi Jandro laid me down on a crystal-laden iMRS PEMF mat for about 20 minutes and guided me through the insane and wonderful experience they call Crystal Biohacking.This crystal-assisted device recalibrated my nervous system and calmed me down – so essentially, it’s a mobile battery you can use to recharge yourself.These ladies knew how to get me primed in my flow state, and created the most insanely powerful energy vortex for our recording.I honestly knew almost nothing about crystals before this conversation, so this experience was pretty much the perfect segue into my big question: What the heck are crystals, and do they have 'healing powers'?For some people they are just a colorful a rock, for others, they’re a tool – and for Heather, a natural born skeptic, and researcher, they quickly became an obsession. The more she learned about the power of these strange natural formations, the more she wanted to know how to integrate them into her life, and ultimately, her business. As a result of her growing curiosity and passion, Energy Muse was born in 2000. That was also the year Heather's former skepticism was laid to rest.Today, Heather and Timmi are working hard to shatter the misconceptions of the crystal world, by bringing these mysterious objects to the masses. They’re trying to destigmatize the practice of crystal use, and take the “woo-woo” out of the industry for those who might be scared away by the new age connotations crystals once carried.They continue to be motivated by the facts that the positive effects of crystals aren’t just metaphysical – they’re real, tangible, and very accessible to your anyone if they’re willing to try.So whether you’re a veteran crystal wizard, a skeptic yourself, or finally feel comfortable coming out of the crystal closet, the girls of Energy Muse are here for you in this epic, supercharged episode. Topics Discussed In This Episode: If a biohacking device is good enough for NASA, it’s good enough for Luke Crystals are energy you can touch and feel Taking the “woo-woo” stigma out of crystals & simplifying the practice Discovering crystals that supposedly come from outer space How long have humans been using crystals? An extremely commonplace that people see crystals, without realizing it: LCD screens, or Liquid-crystal Displays We’re all communicating through crystals in our phones, computers, and other tech! Programming ourselves like a computer chip You don’t need science to tell you that love works Coming out of the crystal closet Being the bridge between the woo-woo and science How crystals intensify energy – good, bad, or otherwise With crystals, bigger and more is not necessarily better The common denominator between us is that we have all our feet on the Earth Shungite: one of the most fascinating substances on the planet Getting in tune with what works for you, whether it’s biohacking or crystal healing Writing what is essentially a crystal recipe book, Crystal Muse: Everyday Rituals to Tune into the Real You The powerful shifting prayer that Energy Muse learned from Bobby Lake-Thom (you can check it out in the episode and try it out yourself!) What do the different shapes of crystals indicate? Why are women inserting jade eggs into their vaginas? What Heather & Timmi are excited about right now   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Tonic Wellness Boutique.

Have you noticed that mainstream spirituality as a form of self-help and personal development is taking the world by storm lately? There are guides, teachers, mentors, and gurus popping up onto the new age scene in droves. This is of course, for the most part, a beautiful thing, as we all know the world could use as many higher-consciousness thought leaders at this particular stage of our evolution.However, today’s spiritual seeker has to apply more discernment than ever before when selecting his or her modern-day guru. With so many teachers of spirit arriving on the scene, it can be tough to separate the true from false, especially when the aspirant finds themselves at a particularly vulnerable crossroad in life.  Our guest Danielle LaPorte is one of the most popular spiritually motivating teachers to emerge over the past few years. Her popularity is growing at a staggering pace. The thing that makes Danielle unique amongst the latest generation of gurus is that she isn’t claiming to be a guru at all. She’s not trying to convince you she has this whole life thing all figured out – she’s merely on her inner journey, inviting us all to come along and join her in her awakening, one day at a time.Danielle’s newest book, White Hot Truth: Clarity for keeping it real on your spiritual path—from one seeker to another, is pretty much a detox for a world inundated by self-proclaimed spiritual sherpas.The whole point of this journey, after all, is to become your guru; to create space for your voice, to own your issues, and to learn from your experiences and pain so that you might be given the opportunity to share the lessons you learn along the way with other soul travelers.Are you ready to give yourself a loving reality check and start finding your path to enlightenment on this journey of life? Pop on some headphones, and prepare yourself for some deeply down to earth spiritual truth. Topics Discussed In This Episode: Getting addicted to self-help Why narcissism is a painful trap (that doesn’t blend well with spirituality) How to avoid being pseudo spiritual The overuse + misuse of the word ‘Guru.’ How and why  Danielle created LIGHTER: a one-year soul support program How self-help devolves into self-criticism Why we’re addicted to our phones, and how we keep justifying the addiction Being successful without getting stuck in the lower states of desire + want Taking responsibility for your feelings Cultivating an open, tender heart and a big effing fence Using the human body as a tuning fork for truth The power of eye gazing with an open heart to appreciate someone you love Maintaining faith in goodness when life seems dark Considering the point of view of the soul’s evolutionary purpose The relationship between spiritual maturity and softness Why Danielle stays in touch with her feminine energy in every situation Danielle’s bag of meditation tricks + finding the right meditation practice for you   More about this episode. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:JOOVV.

I started The Life Stylist Podcast to share some of the things I’ve discovered along my journey of personal development and self-improvement. But if there’s one thing I’ve learned in my 22 years of biohacking, it’s that too much focus on solely the physical tends to become in and of itself an addiction, obsession, or at the very least a distraction from the real task at hand- spiritual enlightenment.While we do need to keep our physical vessel (our meat suit) healthy, stable and in tune so that we can fulfill our soul's mission of love and service to others here on the material plane, it's a spiritual trap to become too enamored by the temporary loaner vehicle we call our body.So in this Bootleg Broadcast of a talk I gave at Bulletproof Upgrade Labs, I focus on the global human experience and the role of mindset, mindfulness, and spirituality in your overall health and wellness.Are you ready to start spirithacking? Topics Discussed In This Episode: That time I recorded my stem cell surgery and put it on YouTube A centering breathwork exercise Primary water – AKA the nectar of the gods Going out to hunt for your spring water How you can protect yourself from the onslaught of EMFs & turn your bedroom into a faraday cage Why I'm a sun worshipper How meditation creates a gap between ‘the witness consciousness’ and the phenomenon we call living life How you can take advantage of “negativity fasting” (and why you should give it a shot) The practice of prayer – not strictly religious prayer, but living in a state of recognition that we’re not separate from everything else in the universe Serving the highest good for yourself & others The prayer that changed my life forever Why all of these spiritual, mental, and physical practices have one purpose: they give us the capacity to be of service to the world   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ORGANIFI.
