The Life Stylist

My spiritual practice and transformative journey has been all about recontextualizing my reality. When you change your perception and step away from “the way things are supposed to be,” you start to understand that they already and always are. And when you take that line of thought and apply it to our bodies and treating disease… well, things can get pretty crazy from our limited view of the world.In this episode, I sit down with Chris Chen, a licensed acupuncturist who has spent the last decade studying with Grandmaster Sung Baek, 75th Grandmaster of the Dong Han healing clan, a Korean Taoist tradition stretching back over 2,500 years.We don’t really know the true origin of these ancient Eastern practices, but like some of the other ancient technologies we’ve discussed on the show, such as Kundalini, it inarguably changes you – they’re powerful and they work. That’s why these technologies manage to stick around long enough to become ancient. (And you should see Chris – something must be working because he looks incredible.)Honestly, I thought this conversation would be all about acupuncture and what Chinese herbs to take, but we end up exploring a whole lot more:How were these ancient technologies (or, in some cases, truths) originally discovered? How is food a form of data? How can you surrender to reality and still contribute in a meaningful and positive way? What the hell is Qi Gong and what does it do to you? What’s up with pulse reading?Sustaining the kinetic energy machine of your body is actually pretty easy when you get down to it – we just over complicate everything with our own thoughts and feelings.What’s new?–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: Finding and studying with Grandmaster Sung Baek The moment Chris dedicated the rest of his life to studying Eastern healing The terminal condition called life Daoism & naturalism The profound lessons that Chris has received from his teacher Why your digestive tract is outside of you, exposed to the universe The Eastern attitude towards food Food as a form of data Nature’s perfect design The history of acupuncture (and the difference between the sacred medicine and the secular medicine) The body-brain connection Recontextualizing reality How you can surrender to reality & still contribute in a meaningful and positive way The philosophy of activism When Chris (almost) stopped meditating What Qi Gong is and what it does to you How pulse diagnosis works   More about this episode. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC.

Today we’re digging into a controversial topic: vaccines. I know this is a touchy topic, and this episode is not about telling you how or what to think – I am not having this conversation to be pro-vaccine or anti-vaccine. I am pro-question and pro-clarity, and I am here to learn all sides of the story and offer a different perspective.That’s why I sat down with Del Bigtree, the Producer of Vaxxed – a must-see documentary for anyone who will potentially have kids and wants to stay informed. I sat up late one night watching the documentary, and as the story unfolded, it just made me so angry.There’s just so much intentional misinformation out there on this topic, and on this documentary.Did you know that Andrew Wakefield – the doctor who lost his license after being tried for publishing a fraudulent paper in 1998 linking the MMR vaccine and autism – never actually came out against vaccines? Did you know that Dr. Wakefield was one of 13 co-authors of that report, yet he was the only one tried for fraud (and he just so happened to be the only one digging further into vaccine safety)? Did you know that Vaxxed isn’t an anti-vaxxer movie?It’s insane how much we don’t know – and that’s why we need people out there who aren’t afraid to ask some big questions.Always be skeptical. Arm yourself with knowledge.–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: Learning how to ask questions, think more critically, and decide for ourselves Producing a debate between Monsanto’s head of toxicology Dr. Donna Farmer and GMO activist Jeffrey Smith How Del first learned about the CDC whistleblower, Dr. William Thompson The scientific fraud and cover up surrounding MMR vaccine studies Why Dr. Thompson is the “cleanest whistleblower you’re ever going to have” The fine line between being an advocate for truth and driving yourself insane Why the vaccine debate seems to be different from any other controversial topic How some people on the Left seem to be trying to shut down free speech these days Why Del considers himself a consumer advocate Getting kicked out of the Tribeca film festival Robert De Niro’s role in the story Donald Trump & vaccines The mandated adult vaccine program that’s in the works 75% of advertising on television comes from Big Pharma Why science is the one place where consensus is meaningless Big Pharma’s stranglehold over the vaccine conversation and lobbying The “religion” around doctors, medical knowledge, and vaccines Why a child in America is 70% more likely to die before adulthood than the other 20 richest nations in the world The first generation of children in America who probably will not live to be as old as their parents The BIG change in vaccinations that happened in 1986 (that made it impossible to sue due to injury from vaccines) The autoimmune crisis in this country The scientific method for evaluating the safety of a drug – which ZERO childhood vaccines have ever done The people who are killed by vaccines annually Playing devil’s advocate The 15 childhood vaccines that have NEVER been studied for a link to autism What’s wrong with the “herd immunity” argument Del’s dream of a truly independent vaccine safety research organization to hold Big Pharma accountable How our species is evolving backwards The difference you can make as an individual – not part of a herd  More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Health IQ.

This episode is a long time coming – I’m sitting down with the catalyst of the Life Stylist podcast and my partner in crime at the School of Style, Lauren Messiah. (Oh... and we also dated for exactly five years.)As a self-described “perpetual not-fitter-inner,” Lauren struggles to find a tribe of her own – but she’s always had style, her one constant.If you dress the right way, you can fit in anywhere... but if you really own it, you can carve out your own space. That’s exactly what Lauren does, and that’s what makes her such an incredible entrepreneur.As a personal stylist, Lauren is dedicated to helping women fundamentally change their relationship with clothing so that they can take out the BS and completely transform themselves, from the outside in. What does your wardrobe communicate to other people? Hell, what does it communicate to yourself? How does our style affect our identity? Our energy?It’s not about being cute or sexy – it’s about getting what you want and living your best life!–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: How Lauren kicked my ass and got me to start the podcast Our five-year relationship and multiple attempts at couples therapy (including a stay at the Onsite Workshops) How we’ve evolved since ending our relationship Lauren’s first fashion memory Being a perpetual not-fitter-inner Growing up multiracial & feeling like you don’t have a tribe Using style to carve out her own space Being a voice for people who feel misunderstood Going to fashion school and then not becoming a designer Inadequacies in education Moving from the east coast to the west coast Becoming a stylist and finding the School of Style Blogging about fashion in 2005 Why Lauren stopped celebrity styling & started personal styling Being a servant VS serving Style being a huge pain point for so many people How a job with Nickelodeon changed Lauren’s life trajectory Clothing as a way of communicating your values Lauren’s evolving brand & relationship with style Living your best life Putting yourself in badass mode Being the Oprah of fashion The science of getting dressed How men can represent their true self on the outside Lauren’s current self-help journey   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ORGANIFI.

What motivates you? If you're like most people it's one of two things:    A) The avoidance of pain B) The pursuit of pleasure    This unique double-interview, narrative format show was motivated by the former. Pain. Lots of pain, for a long, long time- mostly in my lower back and right hip.   It all started 25 years ago when I injured my hip drunk-hiking in Angeles National Forest. I used to pack booze into the woods with my homies, get hammered, then try to find our way back out. It was the best of times, and well, you know the rest of the line.    At any rate, rather than having my hip looked at by an actual doctor, I had my pot dealing, boarding house manager Bob (who was incidentally, a spitting image of Steven Seagal) knock my displaced hip back into the socket with a giant rubber mallet.    Suffice to say, that method of medical treatment was not only ineffective but left my hip injured, which eventually put a strain on my S.I. joint. Add to that initial injury 15 more years of hauling massive musical equipment around the world while playing in rock bands (mostly also done while intoxicated), and you've got me at the current age of 47 years old, in fairly constant back pain.    Over the past 21 years that I've been into alternative health, biohacking and all ways and means by which to heal your body, mind, and soul, I've tried anything and everything I've ever heard of to improve my back and put an end to the nagging pain. The list is far too long to include here, but I'd dare say that I've tried just about anything that you can think of to fix it, short of straight-up surgery.    While I have had moments of reprieve here and there through the application of various modalities, nothing has ever really helped in a meaningful way.    Over the years, however, I have heard over and over again about the healing power of stem cell therapy, and have met many owners of injured, painful human bodies who have experienced nothing short of miraculous healing experiences using this increasingly popular natural-medicine intervention.    Due to this fact, I've had the words 'Stem Cell Treatment' on my yearly vision boards and journals, in hopes that someday I would be so situated as to try this emerging technology on my back.    Well, as fate would have it finally in February 2018, the stars finally aligned and I was able to travel to beautiful Park City Utah to undergo dual treatment under the care of doctors Harry Adelson and Amy Killen at Docere Clinics.    Dr. Harry worked his magic on my lower back, hip, spine, and shoulder, while Dr. Amy focused her injections on my face, scalp, and penis. Yes, you read that correctly. Why would I have them put there? You'll have to listen to this episode to find out.    This extraordinary show follows my entire journey from LA to Utah, in cars, on the airplane, to a local hot spring, and right into the operating room where the two interviews took place, mere moments before I went under anesthesia and underwent the procedure.    This will no doubt be a trip you won't forget as you ride co-pilot along with me on my latest experiment to find the ultimate solution to this long-standing physical challenge.    If you know anyone with persistent pain, or someone who's looking for safe alternatives to anti-aging and sexual optimization therapies, please do them a favor and share this episode with them now.    Here's to new discoveries in health and healing,   Luke  Topics Discussed On Today's EpisodeA full report of my journey from LA to Utah:  At the airport On the plane Off the plane and reporting from Uber At the secret hot springs with podcast listener Kia Sorensen, how she became a listener and her 3 top recommendations for keeping healthy, spiritually and emotionally centered The day after arrival, and off to Docere Clinic Interview with Dr. Harry Adelson: The ABCs of stem cells, and how it's the body’s own natural drugstore  What’s the deal with FDA’s paranoia?    The risks involved with stem cell therapy The conditions most often improved with this type of therapy “A busy doctor means a bad doctor”: Dr. Harry’s no-repeat business model Aftercare therapy, and the importance of bodywork, mobility and healthy lifestyle changes Neurodegenerative diseases and how injections into the brain work towards cell growth factor  Other fringing benefits of stem cell therapy  The difference between fat-derived cells and bone marrow cells  PRP therapy explained  Autologous Vs. Allogeneic: Understanding the derivatives of stem cells, where they come from if not from your body, and the U.S. regulations around it What's with the tourism factor when it comes to stem cell therapy, and how the U.S. differs from international approach  What are exosomes, and how they are made  Umbil

Welcome to the third and final installment of our Water Wars Trilogy, featuring Mukhunde Singh of www.livespringwater.com. Mukhunde is the man responsible for making sure I have a consistent supply of the most pristine spring water on earth, delivered right to my kitchen in LA every two weeks. He's been dedicated to his mission of educating people about the numerous benefits of drinking unprocessed water, directly from nature for over a decade.The reason I have chosen to deliver such a focused podcast trilogy is that after over a decade of personal research and development, I have decided to drink natural, wild, unadulterated spring water almost exclusively. However, in recent months there have been thousands of fake news web articles and television reports about the supposed 'dangers' of people drinking such water. The vast majority of recent media stories have positioned the practice of drinking unprocessed spring water as a 'new, dangerous trend' as if humans have not managed to survive on the planet for the past two million years drinking it.Many of these unfair, and erroneous media attacks have been directed at Mukhunde personally, so I needed to do my part to share his side of the story with the world. Having known him for many years, and having much first-hand experience of his pure heart and high integrity level, it was critical to me that I help secure his reputation as an upstanding and conscious entrepreneur.As a proud advocate of our fundamental human right to drink whatever water we chose to, and in support of our free market economy, I felt it more important than ever to give Mukhande an opportunity to share our mutual passion for living spring water with The Life Stylist Podcast audience. In this episode, you will learn how Mukhande took his love of water and turned it into a thriving, and unique business, and why he believes real spring water is the superior choice for personal and environmental well-being. He’s made a substantial positive impact not only on my health but on the health of dozens of friends and family members that have converted from processed, chemically treated water, to his delicious, lab-tested, entirely natural spring water.If you have not yet heard Water Wars Parts One and Two, featuring Daniel Vitalis and Seth Leaf Pruzansky, make sure to jump back in the feed and give those a thorough listen. The entire trilogy contains over six hours of life-changing content, 100% dedicated to celebrating and discovering the great mysteries of water.Please do someone you love a favor by sharing these profoundly impactful episodes with them. Now more than ever, we humans need to claim our divine birthright to drink water as nature intended it.Now go get hydrated!Luke Topics Discussed On This PART THREE Episode:    The meaning behind his name, and his first experience with spring water  How Mukhande took his love of water and turned it into a thriving, and unique business How most spring waters on the market are processed, and what that means  The story behind his first water collection as a business  His journey in procuring water rights Why he believes real spring water is the superior choice for personal and environmental well-being His business model, the challenges and cost of growing the business The reason behind why most water available to us is processed  The mainstream effort to discourage our autonomy  The unfair and erroneous media attacks that have been directed at Mukhunde personally Best resource to locate springs in U.S. The new delivery locations for the LA area, and his goals for expanding nationally Lifestyle recommendations   More about this episode...Watch on YouTube Listen to Pt1 & Pt2  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:AMPCOIL.

Welcome to the second installment of our Water Wars trilogy, featuring Seth Leaf Pruzansky of Tourmaline Springs. In this episode, our guest delivers a profoundly spiritual, yet practical point of view of water, one of natures greatest gifts to all life on earth.Have you ever wondered what water is, where it comes from, and why it's so crucial to our survival? Are you aware that your body and brain are mostly water? If we are made primarily of water, then wouldn't it stand to reason that our top health priority should be learning everything we can about this substance, and how to find the best possible source?When it comes to the water we drink and bathe in, there are thousands of choices, and most of them come with considerable health risks. Tap water is subject to endless sources of toxic contamination, despite the various forms of filtration available, and much of the bottled water on the market comes with challenges of its own - which in most cases puts it in the same lower class of safety as tap water, not to mention limitations of sustainability and adverse environmental impact.After over a decade of personal research and development, I have chosen almost exclusively to drink genuinely natural, wild, unadulterated spring water. However, in recent months there have been thousands of web articles and television reports about the supposed 'dangers' of people drinking such water.The vast majority of reports have positioned the practice of drinking unprocessed spring water as a 'new, dangerous trend' as if humans have not managed to survive on the planet for the past two million years drinking it.In light of much recent fake news propaganda put forth by the mainstream media, I've taken it upon myself to tell the other side of the story about what I believe to be nature's most significant, and mysterious gift to all life on earth. It can be argued, that after oxygen, water is in fact, the root of all life.When I set out to provide listeners of the show with a comprehensive guide to all things water, I had to track down Seth Leaf Pruzansky. Seth is one of America's most committed advocates for consuming natural spring water, using his company Tourmaline Springs as a vehicle by which to share his love of water with the very fortunate residents of the East Coast.In this episode, Seth is going to do nothing short of blowing your mind with his vast and intimate knowledge of this mysterious liquid we call water.Please do someone you love a favor by sharing this profoundly impactful podcast with them. Now more than ever, we humans need to claim our divine birthright to drink water as nature intended it.Now go get hydrated!Luke Topics Discussed On This PART TWO Episode:   How Seth got into spring water and started his own company  What is TDS and why a water lower in minerals is a better option  How the geographic location and the type of rock spring comes from determines the overall quality of that water  The difference between surface water and ground water  Why it’s important to lab test the water in some cases to make sure it’s safe  Primary water, and why it’s the most absolutely pure water on the planet  The fact that the Earth actually makes water The pros & cons of tap, filtered and bottled water The environmental destruction from corporations, and how it will take conscious entrepreneurship from small businesses to change the course The challenges his company faced with regulations to bring unadulterated water to market How the water industry affects the environment: the good, the bad and the ugly  How Seth discovered how to make non toxic plastic bottles for his company Tourmaline Spring  How you tell a specific spring is safe  Why the media has recently attacked the spring water industry  How there’s no such thing as free water Lifestyle recommendations  More about this episode Watch on YouTube If you missed Part One w/ Daniel Vitalis, click here.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ALTERRA PURE.

It can be argued, that after oxygen, water is in fact, the root of all life.When I set out to provide listeners of the show with a comprehensive guide to all things water, my first stop was Daniel Vitalis. Daniel has been one of the most dedicated advocates for natural spring water in the health industry for two decades and has devoted much of his work to preserving and promoting this fundamental, and sacred human right.Once I got into this interview with Daniel, it quickly became evident that not only would his contribution to the conversation be longer than the usual one hour (this single episode alone clocks in at just over 3 hours), but it would also be necessary to include additional voices within the water industry itself. As a result of the overwhelming contribution of Daniel’s point of view, I decided to dedicate three entire episodes to the topic by creating a comprehensive trilogy, called Water Wars. This episode is the first in a series of three shows on this topic.You can look forward to two more mind-blowing episodes coming this Friday with Seth Leaf Pruzansky of Tourmaline Springs and Mukhande Singh of Live Spring Water, who each share their unique perspective as founders of the only two US companies that sell genuinely natural, unprocessed spring water.Please do someone you love a favor by sharing this profoundly impactful podcast with them.

This is a story about how our host, Marcus Antebi changed my life.The year was 2010. I was a vegetarian at the time, beginning to travel from LA to NYC more frequently for my work in the fashion industry. I remember the sheer terror of landing at JFK, usually at night, starving, then taxiing into the city to start the hunt for something made of plants to eat. It's hard to imagine now, but a mere ten years ago it was almost impossible to find organic restaurants in Manhattan, let alone something vegan or vegetarian. Sources were scarce, and it was even harder to locate something green to eat after a grueling flight across the country had sapped my veggie-hunting energy into oblivion.Then on one of those trips, as my good fortune would have it, I happened to be staying at a hotel on the Lower East Side. As I wandered the crowded streets of my temporary neighborhood resigned to the fact that I would probably have to settle for a bowl of MSG-laden Chinese veggies and rice for dinner, I suddenly saw something that would change my New York experience forever:There it was in all it's mini neon sign glory! "THE JUICE PRESS. ORGANIC, COLD-PRESSED JUICES". Not only had I stumbled across a juice bar (like we had on every other block back in LA) but these guys were badass enough to make and serve COLD-PRESSED juices and smoothies, in the tradition of the late, great Norman Walker. Having been an avid juicer and smoothie wizard myself since the early nineties, I was overjoyed to not only find someone doing it- but doing it oh so right. And thus began my obsession with The Juice Press, and all its glorious organic juices, and superfood snacks.Little did I know, nine years later I would finally track down the man behind it (and his then fiancé Teresa) to get the scoop on his whole juice journey.Our guest Marcus Antebi has since blossomed that tiny shop I first stumbled into at 70 East 1st Street into 71 more stores in 7 states, and counting. His mission is to make healthy, organic, plant-based foods available in a fast, and convenient manner for all who crave it.In this episode you'll learn how Marcus and his partner Michael Karsch created their empire and became the 'juice kings' of New York, and every industry secret nobody else dares to tell. Marcus and his wife Teresa treat the listener to a backstage pass to the current green juice revolution and explain what it takes to source the cleanest ingredients in the world, and why getting fruits and vegetables into your body is crucial to your health. As it turns out, not all juice is created equal, and Marcus teaches us exactly how and why in fascinating detail.If you or someone you know drink fresh-pressed juices and smoothies, you are about to become enlightened to this topic at a depth you never imagined possible.If you've not yet made organic, raw, nourishing plant-based drinks a part of your lifestyle, this show is sure to convince you to do so.Pass this episode along to someone who could use some vitality, energy, and cleansing power in their life.Here's to your greens!Luke Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: How Marcus got into the industry, and his motivation for starting the first store Why cold-pressed raw juice is so much more powerful than pasteurized The core values of the great juice movement, and what it takes to be successful Who is the juice pioneer Norman Walker, and why is he so important The best and worse juicers on the market for home use Why you want to avoid most stevia products  How Marcus dealt with the USDA & FDA food inspections as he was building his juice empire The challenge in finding local organic produce year-round  Why eating locally-grown food is not always the best option for your health  Teresa’s vegan lifestyle, pregnancy and home births The plant kingdom, and what chemicals are doing to our food & environment How to effectively treat deficiencies, and why women have cravings through pregnancy Protein as the problem, not the solution The top 5 ways to avoid getting cancer from your diet The reason processed sugar is the worse thing ever! Is a Ketogenic diet really healthy and sustainable?  The dangers of the Paleo diet  The amazing healing powers of a 3-day water fast   More about this episode.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: HEALTH IQ. Health IQ.

Have you ever found yourself repeating the same negative patterns in life, caught in a perpetual cycle of frustration and confusion, left without a clue as to how you end up in the same painful situations again and again?Perhaps you've had some persistent issues that were challenging enough to get you into therapy or counseling at some point. Maybe you read a few self-help books. You found yourself able to pinpoint, at least to some degree- the origins of your mental and emotional dysfunction. You might have even figured out that most of your destructive behavior has manifested at least to some degree as a result of trauma, neglect, or abuse you endured as a child. Most of the clues probably led back to your parents’ shortcomings as incompetent early 'life coaches.’ You learn a bit about yourself, and your subconscious motives and egoic drives. You have a few breakthroughs. You get to the root of your problems. But do you ever really CHANGE? Have you ever been able to entirely break free from your 'old' self, and become a genuinely new person as a result of your inner work?For most of us, myself included, many hours in therapy and self-help study might have resulted in some temporary emotional symptom relief, but for the most part, we pretty much stay the same in the long run, barring some hugely monumental sea change shift, usually brought about by some radical transformative event.Well in July 2017 I had such an event. It was a week-long intensive retreat held in Napa, California known as The Hoffman Process. I enrolled, drove up north, and committed to myself that no matter what, I was going to give every ounce of courage and willingness to this somewhat mysterious group experience in the redwoods. I had no idea that I was about to undergo such a profound self-renovation.The Hoffman Process was one of the most profound experiences of my life, which is why I made it my mission after completing the program to share it with you.What you are about to experience is an in-depth exploration of the process, and my time there with their international director, Tim Laurence. We thoroughly unpack how The Hoffman Process combines different spiritual and psychological modalities into one life-changing intensive, its origins, and why the heck it’s so damn effective in producing lasting change.By the end of this show, you will no doubt have a much deeper understanding of what your negative patterns are, how you got them, and most important of all- how to rid yourself of them.Please share this episode with someone who could use some help breaking free from the bondage of their past.Here's to your mental health,Luke Topics Discussed On Today's PART ONE Episode: How Tim first got involved in the Hoffman Process? Who was Bob Hoffman, and how did he come up with this stuff? The Quadinitry concept, and why it’s the key to unlocking our potential The Hoffman cycle of transformation: awareness, expression, compassion, forgiveness to generate new behaviors and deep inner change The importance of taking responsibility and establish healthy boundaries How we take on negative patterns and more importantly, how we break them What are some of the typical family roles that we take on, and how do they shape our lives as adults The stories we carry about our parents that may not be true and causes to be stuck How can we live from our more authentic, spiritual self? The phenomenon of transference, and how it hurts relationships The role that surrender has in the Hoffman Process, and how does it differ from submission and compliance and just giving up How the Process approaches addictions Does positive visualization actually work? And is it possible to break passed the subconscious limitations we impose upon ourselves by doing it What effects that being a facilitator had on him What are some tools that he personally uses when anxiety and pain comes up Lifestyle recommendations For more about this episode.Watch it on YOUTUBE!  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: HEALTH IQ. Health IQ.

Did you know that the world we perceive with our five senses represents but a fraction of the reality that surrounds us? Beyond our standard perception lies an infinite realm, with dimensions of time snd space seldom experienced by most people. What would it be like if you were able to see, feel, and hear a metaphysical, phenomenal universe right here on earth? It's hard to imagine something you've not yet experienced, is it not? As we learn from this conversation, just because you can't experience the supernatural, doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. In this episode, we explore non-physical reality with modern day shaman and healer Mama Medicine, AKA Deborah Hanekamp. Since she was a little girl, Deborah has been able to see and experience realms of reality seldom perceptible by most people. Over the years she's learned to hone her skills and to channel her healing abilities in the most powerful of ways and to help people work through a vast spectrum of challenges both physical, mental, and spiritual. Her shamanic healing work as a Reiki Master and clairvoyant has gained her much notoriety in the consciousness community of New York City, and beyond. She's facilitated Medicine Reading ceremonies all over the world, in addition to her regular sessions in her Soho headquarters, Space By Mama Medicine.   If you've ever wondered if ghosts, auras, and astral travel were merely fantasies of human imagination or actual reality, this mind-bending, soul-healing conversation might be just what the Dr. ordered. Take a deep breath, sit back, and enjoy a journey into the unknown with Mama Medicine. If you know someone who could use some more wonder and magic in their lives, please do them a favor and pass this episode along. The world could use more plenty more beings of light.

In today's climate of spiritual trends, meditation has become one of the hottest. And of course, right? I mean, after all, one of the most axiomatic principles ever uttered by a human is ‘know thyself,' right? And what better way to get to know yourself, but to spend some time alone in silence.But how long would it take to benefit from the practice of quiet introspection? How long could you be silent? How many hours per day could you enjoy (or tolerate) a sitting meditation? How about ten or twenty days without talking to a single soul, spending hour after hour just sitting there doing NOTHING. To some, this prospect sounds like heaven and of course, to others who are less acquainted with their inner selves, this idea might seem utterly terrifying.Our guest Diego Perez (AKA Yung Pueblo) is a veteran of many an inner journey and provides us with a fascinating play by play report on precisely what happens on a Vipassana silent meditation retreat.From this episode, you'll gain a deep understanding of not only the specific protocol of the various meditation retreats but also of the fundamentals of Buddhism, and how to apply the simple yet profoundly powerful principles of the lineage to your everyday life. After all, it's not only what happens on your meditation cushion that matters, but more so how you're able to integrate this ancient wisdom and cause ripples of positive energy to wash over your every moment and to everyone you might encounter on your earthbound journey.Listen, as Yung Pueblo drops knowledge bombs of immense power onto your consciousness, then take a moment to transmit that peace to someone you love by sharing this extraordinary episode with them.Here's to your practice,Luke For more about this episode.  His roots as a kid in Ecuador, and how he got the name Yung Pueblo The current state of human consciousness, and the explosion of Vipassana centers His path from misery to Vipassana The unique donation-based approach of Vippasana Centers Step by step report on what happens on a 10-day Vipassana Meditation retreat Subtle symptoms of trauma, and how they shape our personalities How to apply the principles of Buddhism in modern life Wanting vs. Being: the traps of desire, and how to overcome delusion & anxiety Emotions that arise from clouded Ego, and the liberation path to purity, love & compassion What does it mean to live a life free of suffering The purpose of ego, and why it’s not always the enemy Cleaning up after ourselves, and learning to act through love The physical requirements of Vipassana meditation The cravings and fears that he’s still dealing with On humility and being a “regular” person Lifestyle recommendations  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC. Melt away stress, boost immunity, relax & sleep deeper, improve productivity, increase brain power, get stimulation without jitters.

Do you live a healthy lifestyle? If you found your way to this podcast, it's likely that you eat organically, take your vitamins, and do your best to avoid toxins in your environment. You drink clean water, filter your air, and use natural cleaning and body care products. You workout, do yoga, run, and get plenty of good sleep. But what if you were missing a huge piece of the health puzzle? Maybe even the most critical part?The truth is that no matter how health conscious you are, in today's industrialized world we are all exposed to thousands of chemicals on a daily basis. Our air, water, food, earth, and even the buildings we live and work in have been polluted with toxins for at least the past 150 years. It is virtually impossible to avoid the physical accumulation of these substances no matter how much you try. It's almost guaranteed that your body was loaded with a toxic burden before you were even born, due to the environmental and dietary exposure you mother received before and during pregnancy. In this day and age, we’re all born polluted.It's now widely understood and accepted by mainstream medicine and science that most, if not all chronic, and degenerative diseases are caused at least in part by our acute, or long-term exposure to these toxins. Name any condition, and at the root of it, you will find, at least to some degree, toxin exposure.If it's impossible to avoid the accumulation of toxins, even if we make a serious effort to live a healthy lifestyle, what can we do to live a long, and disease-free life? The answer is not living in a bubble of paranoia and sealing ourselves off from the dangers of exposure. The solution to the issue of toxification is of course detoxification.

Do you like to get high? Come on, you can admit it. You might not fancy smoking crack in a back alley, but chances are better than even that if you have a pulse, at some point in your life you have used something to alter your state of mind. Your drug of choice might have been chocolate, or maybe just refreshing your Instagram feed one more time, but no matter who you are, we all like to get that hit. To feel happy- to feel free. Or at the very least, distracted.Since the beginning of time, humans have loved to expand their perception of reality and to explore the unknown realms of their inner universe. Through our evolution, we've systematically discovered every mind-altering substance on the planet, and if we couldn't find it, we made it. We've erected sophisticated laboratories, and scoured the jungle floors of The Amazon, all in the great pursuit of getting off. No matter what means we've used to expand our consciousness, the basic fact remains: By and large; people like to get lit.However, when most of us pursue a psychoactive experience, we almost always look outside of ourselves for the chemistry by which to induce the desired state. Except for orgasmic climax, people generally defer to some external stimuli when it comes to escaping the confines of our ordinary embodied state of being.Our guest in this episode, Elian Zach, has made it her life's mission to help people explore the inner dimensions of their minds and souls using two tools older than humankind itself: vibration and oxygen. Or in the case of her uber-popular New York City yoga/meditation hideaway Woom Center, sound and breath. Using an endless array of obscure and outlandish instruments, light shows, and shamanic breathwork practices, she and her partner/husband David Zach-Shemesh regularly take their devoted community of Manhattan cosmonauts on sonic journeys that fall nothing short of miraculous. I’ve taken many a trip with them, and each time experienced a profound shift within, which is why I just had to capture some of that mojo and share it with you.In this epic, double episode, you will learn everything you ever wanted to know about reaching nirvana here on earth.

Would you like to be able to hit your flow state on demand? Can you imagine having command over your mental focus, creativity, memory, and even your emotions? What a different world it would be if we humans held the power optimize our consciousness, and as a result, our psychological relationship to each other, and to the planet we all inhabit.Our guest Daniel Schmachtenberger has dedicated his life to figuring out simple solutions to complex problems. The world is a complicated place. Health and happiness tend to elude many of us, due to how overwhelming it can be to figure it all out. Most of us have a desire to make a positive contribution to the world and to derive meaning from our lives, but often don’t know where to start.But to effect positive change globally, we each need a method by which to improve ourselves on a micro level, before branching out to make the monumental changes we likely need to thrive, or perhaps even survive, as a species. Daniel believes that more significant societal issues will more easily be solved using a broad, systemic approach. The catch is that we as individuals have to get our biology and mindset in order first.His mission is gaining momentum through Neurohacker Collective, an organization dedicated to discovering the most cutting-edge technologies for human performance. Their flagship product, Qualia, has taken the nootropic and smart drug world by storm and has quickly emerged as one of the most widely respected, highly studied brain supplements on the market. (Just about every episode of The Life Stylist Podcast recorded in the past year has been done so under the influence of this remarkable product.)In this mind-blowing episode, we learn not only why Daniel and his team created Qualia, exactly how and why it works so well, but also what Neurohacker Collective has in store for the future. Trust me when I say, this is not a future- or episode- you will want to miss.As you listen to this powerfully inspiring conversation with Daniel, think of one person you know who is interested in enhancing their mental and emotional intelligence, and overall quality of life, then share this show with them via text, email, or social media.Here's to upgrading your neurology,Luke For more on this episodeWatch it on YouTube!

How do you make a baby? You just add male and female bits together, and nine months later out pops a cute little tike right? Sure, that's accurate at its core, but what if you want to make a healthy baby? A healthy baby is a whole other story altogether. There are so many things to consider,  such as the two-year detox process the mother (and even father) need to embark on before conception, including the cessation of birth control pills. Then there's the period of gestation, when the mother needs to protect and nourish her body, to increase the likelihood of complication-free birth. Once the first nine months have passed, and the time of actual delivery arrives, there are endless, and profoundly impactful considerations regarding where and how to deliver the baby. The most meaningful decision is of course whether or not to have a home or hospital birth- a natural, or medicalized experience. Both have their risks and benefits.  Then once the little one arrives into this world, parents are faced with a multitude of other choices around breastfeeding, vaccination, circumcision (male genital mutilation) and what to feed the kid once they've been weened. The whole ordeal is incredibly complicated and wrought with potential confusion and misinformation.  Thanks to our guest Dr. Robin Berzin, you will learn the ins and outs (no pun intended) of the whole reproductive process directly from a new mom, who's done all of the research herself from start to finish, applying the most cutting-edge knowledge available to date to her own birthing experience.   Dr. Berzin not only been through it herself but has spent much of her adult life in pursuit of the most effective model of medical care, from the perspective of functional and western medicine.  From this episode, you will gain laser-focus clarity on the different options available to you and your family, and how to navigate some the most meaningful and vital decisions of your life. Decisions that will directly affect your offspring, and quite possibly the generations that will follow. Do the world a favor and please share this profound episode with someone you know who’s likely to procreate at some point. The power of information like this cannot be over estimated.  Here’s to making love. And happy, healthy babies.  Luke  Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: Possible dangers and complications of a tradition hospital birth, and those of home birth What exactly does a home birth entail, and is it risky? What is a midwife, and what is their role in a home birth How do you find and work with a qualified Doula? And why Robin chose to use one for her home birthing process How the environment in the room affects the baby as it pops out: the lighting, the sounds, the smells, the people present, the energy… How she actually had to abandon home birth in the middle of labor, and rushed off in an Uber to the hospital What to do if the natural approach isn’t working, and having to go with interventions like an epidural, or C-section The importance of making sure that you and your doctor are on the same page by covering important topics early on The expense of a hybrid style birth such as the one Robin did Are ultrasounds dangerous? The systematic problem with medicalized birth and pregnancy, and how the medical system is milking people for money unnecessarily Why it’s crucial to get the inside of your body clean as possible before even getting pregnant How Robin tested really high in mercury before getting pregnant, and did a heavy metal detox before having the pregnancy The risks of birth control pills, and why you should be off it for at least two years before having a baby What's the deal with banking eggs, and why you might want to do this right now The role of stem cell therapy in relation to birth The concerns with mammograms The main causes of breast cancer, and how to avoid it What are the benefits of eating the placenta? What is delayed umbilical cord clamping, and why you should do it The issues with the male genital mutilation practice we call circumcision, and why you should’t do it to baby boys Why vaginal swabbing is absolutely needed if you have a C-section  To vaccinate or not to vaccinate? The controversy, the truth, and the hype The vital importance of breast feeding and the benefits of the good bacteria in mother's milk  Lifestyle recommendations   For more on this episode, click here.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:LONGEVITY POWER.

Welcome to the first episode of 2018!Right about now we're all thinking about our goals and intentions for the new year and making decisions that will shape our future for this one and beyond. This means that most of us are planning strategies, and lists of actions that will deliver the results we want. But is not the common goal of almost everyone to just be happier? More satisfied? To have more peace of mind?Well what if the actions one needs to take aren't actions at all, but rather 'non-actions'? I mean, if the end goal is peace then it stands to reason that perhaps taking some time to unwind, de-stress, and unscramble our connection to god might just be the fastest route to our desired outcome right?Our (second time) guest Emily Fletcher has spent over a decade teaching thousands of people all over the world the fine art of doing nothing. Well, some casual onlookers might call it nothing. But for those of us in the know, myself included, we call it meditating. Yep, good old-fashioned meditation might just be the most significant performance-enhancing activity one can adopt or improve upon this year.Meditation, which was once perceived to be a rare and unique skill only available to exalted beings and mystics from the East, has become increasingly more accessible thanks to knowledgeable (yet relatable) teachers like Emily and her genius company Ziva Meditation, the location at which this very show was recorded.In this episode, Emily breaks down the practice of meditation in a super compelling fashion. She gives us the mystical, esoteric dynamics of meditation that seem to defy all logic, yet tickle our whimsical, curious nature, while still dropping the hard science truth bombs potent enough to break down the intellectual walls of the most prudent skeptic.So whether you're already rooting for team woo-woo, or are so deeply entrenched in your need for 'proof' and 'the science,' you will leave this interview with an infectious excitement to learn to meditate from the start or even to ramp up your existing practice to an impactful level.Based on my personal history of 20+ years of meditation, I can genuinely say that committing to a bonafide regular practice might just be the best thing you did for yourself in 2018, and perhaps even the most significant contribution you can make to your family, friends, and humanity as a whole, given our current and dire need for more enlightened souls on the planet.Do all of us a favor and please share this episode with someone you know who could use some meditation in thier life, or one who just needs a little nudge to pick it up again after letting it slip away.Here's to your consciousness rising in this glorious new year.Luke Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: How meditation promotes empathy and gives you access to right brain intuition Why her practice involves meditating 2x a day for 20 minutes, and why it's so important to follow that tradition Tips for keeping your practice, epically that elusive afternoon session The math on burning units of stress Why proper meditation training is key to avoiding frustration Other tons of practical tips on how to keep your practice consistent and improving What the 3 M’s are, how they will change your life, and why they are the basis of Emily’s upcoming book "The M Word" The fact meditation is a psychic detox where old negative feelings may surface and be released, and how trauma can be healed The practice of Vipassana (10 day retreats) and the powerful effects they produce Why 44% of American women are on antidepressant/anti anxiety medications How "the only away around it is through it” when it comes to dealing with our scariest issues, thoughts and feelings How meditation improves the communication between the right & left hemispheres of your brain, and how that produces the most powerful manifestation in your life Some spiritual tools for manifesting your goals and intentions The dangers of "I'll be happy when” syndrome, and what to do instead We examine the proverb: "when you climb the mountain, you get to see all the mountains you have left to climb”, and how to not give up on yourself How to use self referral for happiness instead of material referral, and how to use your desires as GPS to deliver fulfillment The miraculous effect working with a Life Coach had on Emily How meditation fixes your "fight or flight” response to life How meditation can give you mind blowing sex, and important tips of you're trying to get pregnant The effects meditation has on your neurotransmitters What are mirror neurons, and why they matter Lifestyle recommendations   For more on this episode, click here.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC. Melt away stress, boost immunity, relax & sleep deeper, improve productivity, increase brain power, get stimulation without jitters.

Welcome to the New Years Eve 2017 Bootleg Broadcast Episode!Today’s show is a live recording of a mindfulness talk I gave October 27th, 2017 in my hometown, Aspen Colorado. The event was recorded at Aspen Shakti, the day before I led a meditation at the Lead With Love festival. The Shakti talk was arguably the most intimate and vulnerable public presentation I've ever given. It was a considerable act of courage just to show up and be as open-hearted as I was, but even more so to follow through with releasing it as a podcast episode. I sat on this recording for a couple of months, not sure if I was ready to publish such a brutally personal presentation. I bared my soul. I talked about my past as a criminal, drug dealer, drug addict, and many of my most profound and most personal struggles and insecurities. I even spoke about my spirituality- my relationship with GOD. I cried. Twice. I mean, who in their right mind records that, then puts it out into cyberspace? Well, I guess I do if it serves a higher purpose. And the purpose was, is, and always will be to help others overcome the challenges we all face by sharing how I'm overcoming mine.As I was reflecting on the passing year, and my most valuable lessons, it suddenly occurred to me what my single most impactful discovery has been: The immense power of keeping it real and giving zero f**ks. That's the moment I knew I owed it to myself to go ahead and publish this episode, come what may. This year, I have found to my surprise that the more authentic, vulnerable, and honest I am- the more intensely people resonate with my message. So if I want to make a meaningful contribution to society, I must be willing to sacrifice my pride, and just bring the truth to every situation I find myself in. Even if that situation is a very public talk or podcast episode.It's been such a massive internal revelation to find that after a lifetime of being afraid to allow myself to be seen and to be vulnerable publicly and privately, that those fears were unnecessary and illogical. They were in fact, phantoms. It turns out that it's perfectly safe to be seen, to be known.  It's become so clear to me that the more open and honest I can be, the more significant the positive impact I can have in the world. A simple concept, but for me, this has been a genuinely liberating year, having experienced this truth at depth.So that's what this Bootleg Broadcast is all about: Surrendering to your highest potential and creating a space for others to feel free enough to do the same. The net result of all of this is real intimacy and unconditional love. And that's what we're all looking for in the end, isn't it?As I wrap up 2017 and set my goals for 2018, I've taken some time to reflect and to apply gratitude for all the gifts I received via this podcast.Here's a brief recap of The Life Stylist Podcast 2017:The show hit 1 million downloads!

If you're reading this, the chances are that you're relatively interested in your health. You know, taking your vitamins, eating organic, hitting the gym, or some yoga here and there, right? Or perhaps you've chosen to make your health a top priority, and taken your lifestyle to the level of a legit biohacker? That's when things get exciting right? You know, all the fancy gadgets, exotic herbs, weird breathing techniques, and endless bottles of costly 'magic bullet' supplements. With each new device, pill, or practice, comes more guesswork, research, trial, and error, and let's face it- a grip of out-of-pocket expenses. And if you live in a big city, the toxic impact on your biology is even more significant, and thus so is the need for self-directed intervention if you want to achieve optimal health and well-being.But what if 90% of your efforts were in vain? What if all of your self-diagnostic, or 'Dr. Google' tests were bunk? How do you ever know if you're spending your time and energy on the stuff that works?Well, lucky for you our guest this episode has cracked the code of personal optimization. What makes his way of biohacking so efficient, when so many other approaches fail? Tracking. Testing. Quantifying your results. In fact, Bob Troia has become so proficient at the fine art of hacking himself that he's known all over the world as Quantified Bob. And quantify he does. Everything. Sleep, diet, exercise, gut health, hormones, nutrient saturation, stress levels, mood, and the effectiveness (or lack thereof) of just about every biohack known to man. As a long-time resident of New York City, Bob's had to perfect his detox and nourishment protocols to maintain optimal health, and he's generously joined the show to share his many coveted secrets with you.If you're someone who wants to get into the quantified self scene at the novice level, this episode has got the goods for you. You're going to save yourself years of futile, newbie guessing games. But if you're already well on your way to the biohacking big leagues, Bob is going to blow your mind with his innovations to the practice, and share some powerful tips that will keep you busy for a long, long time to come.If you have a friend that could use some insights into managing their health, pass this episode along to them. It might just peak an interest that could save their lives further on down the road.To your health,Luke Topics Covered:  Bob's start with biohacking, and how he overcame exhaustion The Bulletproof diet and analyzing his amazing results Labs and base-level testing Checking cortisol and adrenals for sleep and energy disorders  Ketosis explained in simple terms Meters for testing ketones and glucose levels What are exogenous ketones?

Welcome to The 2017 Christmas Show! I elected to release an extraordinarily profound episode on this very auspicious day, and in celebration of a beautiful holiday tradition, decided to feature an older, wise man with a long, white beard as our special guest. However, our Yogic Santa won't be dropping down your chimney to eat up your cookies and milk. Instead, he'll be taking a journey down into your soul- to deliver his transformative message of mysticism to the core of your being. Sounds a lot cooler than the new Sony Play Station, does it not?Life is full of unanswered questions. Here are a few you might have asked yourself at some point if you're of the spiritually curious ilk:What is our higher consciousness? How do we access it, and operate from that universal cosmic intelligence with more consistency? It seems as though the ego-self is waiting at every turn for us to lose sight of it, and allow it to take command of our thoughts and feelings, and thus force us to live at the whims of our lower, instinct-driven nature. So how can one genuinely raise their spiritual vibration, and be nourished from the deep well of love and divine intelligence within us on a more consistent basis?Our esteemed guest Guru Singh has spent his entire life in search of answers to such questions of existential fulfillment, and through the practice of Kundalini Yoga has not only unlocked the sacred code for himself but has helped thousands of students across the globe to find the answers for themselves. Singh is a real spiritual master, and one of the most compelling, thought-provoking, and funny yogis the world has ever known. He is a uniquely gifted teacher and has an uncanny knack for taking profoundly cosmic, quantum-level spiritual science and transmuting it into a simple, applicable daily practice.In this touching and profound episode, you will not only gain an intellectual understanding of some highly esoteric principles, but you'll also experience an authentic freedom of heart and spirit that is rarely achieved by merely listening in on a conversation.Sit back, sip some Yogi Tea, open your heart chakra, and let the Christmas Spirit unfold. Then remember that this is the season of giving, so gift the gift of this episode to someone you love, if your heart is thus guided to do so.Peace and love to you and yours,Luke Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: What is was like to grow up as a third generation yogi A fascinating story of how his family were early adopters of Eastern teachings What the yoga LA scene was like in 1969 when he met Yogi Bhajan What it was like to hang out with spiritual giants like Mutkananda, Satchidanandanda, Osho What his first yoga class was like Did Yogi Bhajan have super human powers?

If there was one single, completely safe, natural supplement that possessed a seemingly endless potential of miraculous healing powers, with zero risk or side effects would you want to try it?What if one universal molecule could, prevent hangovers, reduce inflammation, scavenge free radicals, increase physical and mental energy (mitochondria+ATP), promote cellular health, improve cognitive function, improve eyesight, produce better skin health and tone, improve sleep, support healthy weight management, hydrate at the cellular level, enhance athletic performance and decrease recovery time, and eliminate the symptoms of jet lag?By now you should be wondering what this miracle molecule is, and exactly how and why it works. This modern discovery is not new to our world. In fact, it's one of the oldest elements in the known universe. And it's everywhere, all the time. What is new is that the medical and scientific community has made the relatively recent discovery that it can be ingested or inhaled as an anti-aging, health-supporting supplement with unparalleled benefits.This amazing substance is known as molecular hydrogen, and our guest Tyler W Lebaron is one of the worlds leading experts on this fascinating super anti-oxidant, and he has spent years researching the health implications and potential of H2 and continues to advocate for it, and it's medical applications.In this mind-boggling episode you will learn precisely how, due to its small size and bioavailability, hydrogen can easily cross cell membranes, through the blood-brain-barrier and access parts of the cell that other antioxidants are too large to reach. More importantly perhaps, you will learn the most effective methods of ingestion, and how you can start to take advantage of its healing powers right away.In the spirit of the Holiday Season, please give the gift that keeps on giving: This podcast.

Are you ready to get your soul healed by the Rockstar Shaman? Our guest in this episode is Alyson Charles, and she might just be the cure for what ails you. She's spent the better part of two decades casting the psychological demons not only from her own life but the lives of countless spiritual aspirants of all stripes. There are a lot of healers out there, some real, some not so much. What makes Alyson uniquely impressive is her authentic, vulnerability and all around realness. Through her work as a TV and radio host, she’s brought meditation and sacred ritual to the mainstream in a powerfully creative way.In this interview, Alyson and I dive right into the nitty gritty trauma, shame, doubt, and fear that keep so many of us in the spiritual and professional kiddy pool for way too long. Thankfully, with some self-awareness and a little grace, we don’t have to stay there. We can all use the power of meditation and self-love to put our big boy and girl pants on and get on with living to our highest potential. You’re going to learn exactly what it took to shake Alyson loose from her self-imposed limitations, and how’s she mastered the art of playing big and charging ahead in all of her full, authentic glory. Her story of going from suffering to salvation to service paralleled my own so profoundly that I even had a mini spiritual awakening myself during the recording. Then I almost edited that part out. I found it embarrassing. I texted Alyson for some guidance. She said to keep it in, so I did. In the interest of realness, come what may.It brings me great pleasure to present Alyson and her profound, yet lighthearted perspective on life to you and yours this holiday season. Gift the gift of growth by sharing this extraordinary episode with someone you love. Or even someone you tolerate.This one goes out to your true self. May you love him/her, and never be afraid to let yourself shine.Luke Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: Her profound spiritual awakening and how things have not been the same since Using negative experiences as a tool for growth Do crystals have real powers or is that a fantasy? The dangers of fake-ass healers, and how to avoid them The power of surrender in your life Using leech therapy to rid yourself of demons How to use CBD and THC safely if you're a recovering addict Why Alyson doesn't kill cockroaches What a shaman is and why you need one The benefits of cupping and acupuncture The shamanistic practice of Sananga Eye Drops (sun-anguh) and how it clears your blocked energy The power of tribal (Ha-pay) Rapé tobacco snuff, and why you should try it Oil of gold and its powerful benefits The idea that spiritual enlightenment is not a journey, rather than a goal The power of self-love affirmations, and the fact that they actually work How haters and trolls actually help us grow and gain power and maturity Why it's so important to be vulnerable and authentic when it comes to spiritual growth and personal development How creating this podcast has been the most powerful tool for my own growth Lifestyle recommendations   For more on this episode, click here.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC. Melt away stress, boost immunity, relax & sleep deeper, improve productivity, increase brain power, get stimulation without jitters.

You've heard the saying that time heals all wounds right? Well, what if you could speed that process up by say, 10x or more? Thanks to cold laser therapy treatment most injuries, sprains, bruises, burns, and even chronic, significant health issues like infertility and dementia can be permanently alleviated. Imagine being able to treat a sprained ankle yourself, and watching it heal before your eyes in half the time it would take naturally? Or how would you like to zap a budding cold sore or wart before it blooms, or cure arthritis, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel, acne, or Eczema while sitting on the couch?Does this sound too good to be true? Well thanks to geniuses like our guest Arne Grinsted, who is a highly respected pioneer in the field of cold laser devices, there is an endless treasure trove of not only anecdotal evidence to support these claims but also decades of scientific research, from all over the world.It has been, and always will be the mission of this podcast to bring the most cutting-edge, DIY healing modalities to listeners like you. In this episode, you will learn the history of this powerful technology, and more importantly where laser innovation is heading in the future, and what to look for and avoid in seeking out your path to wellness.If you've suffered from any of the ailments mentioned above and have hoped for a miracle, it might have just arrived, in the form of this show. Give this episode a deep listen, then pass it along to someone you know who is struggling with any of the issues this medical miracle is known to treat. The list is long.Here's to a pain-free life!Luke Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: How he turned his passion for healing people and electrical engineering into a laser company How he found scientific resources to start building lasers in 1982, before the internet The fact that Einstein envisioned laser therapy long before they ever came to fruition The mechanism of healing and the fast production of ATP created by this type of laser How Arne healed a sprained ankle in one day using a laster he made himself The different classes of lasers and what they do What is the Gigalaser, and how it helped 200 out of 300 infertile women get pregnant How lasers have the ability to heal wounds, sports injuries, and even brain conditions like dementia and Alzheimer’s How to overcome the restrictions of big pharma and the medical industry as an inventor of alternative therapies Lifestyle recommendations   For more on this episode, click here.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC. Melt away stress, boost immunity, relax & sleep deeper, improve productivity, increase brain power, get stimulation without jitters.

When you think of spirituality, do you think of unicorns, rainbows and pretty flowers? Do you believe that to become ‘spiritual' you have to be pure? To be holy? Have you attempted to live in bliss, only to find that your pesky old shadow self/ego keeps creeping up behind you and re-asserting itself when life gets a bit challenging?What if the way to the top of the enlightened mountain involved walking right through the fire, and facing your darkest fears, doubts, and shame? Would you still endeavor to take the treacherous journey into the light? Most people don’t, some people won’t, and the rest of them don’t even know there is a mountain to climb in the first place.Our guest Sah D’Simone is no stranger to the dark side. He spent years exploring the shadows of New York City’s fashion scene, and all the materialistic glamour that comes with it, before dropping it all in favor of studying the spirit world with yogic masters in Nepal and India. After many a harrowing inner journey, Sah has emerged as a bright light in the world of personal transformation and meditation. We spend this episode talking about his trip, and about how crucial it is to take the time to cultivate the courage and humility to fearlessly go inside of oneself to excavate the hidden shame, trauma, that often blocks us from true psychic maturity.This intimate and heartfelt conversation takes you on a journey from Sah’s challenging upbringing in Brazil, through his rise to the top of the fashion world, down to the pits of existential hell and back again in a real hero’s journey. You will no doubt gain a better understanding of your psychological blocks, negative subconscious patterns, and most importantly- how to evolve through them by facing them head-on.Enjoy your listen, and Sah reminds us to always remember: You are worthy!Luke Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: How childhood trauma plays out in dysfunctional adult patterns His experience with the Kabbalah Center, and how that helped shape his teaching What it's like to chill with the Dalai Lama Facing of fear, guilt and shame on meditation retreats The value in facing our suffering and shadows head-on The risks involved in taking spiritual pilgrims to Nepal, India, and how you micro biome can freak out on you The power of breathwork How to use the third eye as a point of focus in mediation  The gathering of meditative energy to sharpen the mind How he learned to back up the woo woo of spirituality with science  How his chronic pain went away once he started to serve others, based on the fact that when you wish someone well – you boost your own happy neurochemicals The struggle the hierarchy of skin color growing up in Brazil The importance of self acceptance, and acceptant of ones own sexual preference How he survived being picked on as a kid How a lack of self-worth can manifest in overachieving, and how to fix it Sah shares his excitement regarding the acceptance of mental health issues becoming less shameful  Exact how he made the transition from fashion professional to full-time spiritual teacher, and what that looks like from a business and financial perspective  Lifestyle recommendations   For more on this episode, click here.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC. Melt away stress, boost immunity, relax & sleep deeper, improve productivity, increase brain power, get stimulation without jitters.

Does your brain work as well as you'd like it to? How's your memory, ability to focus, and access to creative thought? If you could take supplements and herbs to upgrade your mental performance, and elevate your mood would you? If so, how would you know what to consume, how much of it, and what's safe vs. risky? In this episode, I sit for a chat with Abelard Lindsey, one of the living legends in the nootropic and smart drug scene. He was one of the industry forerunners and is widely regarded as a master formulator of nootropic 'stacks' (recipes). His crown jewel stack, Ciltep is one of the most popular brain supplements in the world, and one that I've regularly used personally for the past three years. Along with Ciltep, Abelard has also created some other powerful formulations under the Natural Stacks product line umbrella. After listening to this show, you'll not only learn how Abelard came up with his now famous Ciltep formula, but you'll also get to the root of the science behind the multitudes of ingredients commonly used in nootropic stacks, and some of the most common side-effects and benefits. Whether you're a veteran of brain upgrade experimentation, or someone brand-new to the practice of mental performance manipulation, this episode will fast-track your strategy and help you to avoid wasting time and money on products that don't work. Do some mental exercise right now, by thinking of one person who could use some brain enhancement and share this compelling episode with them. To your smarts, Luke Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: The advantage of getting to try all the biohacking tech at the conference The invention of Ciltep, one of the most popular nootropics on the planet, which can be found on my webstore luke storey.com/store, along with every other supplement and product I recommend and use myself The role Tim Ferris and Dave Asprey played in making smart drugs popular An insanely in-depth exploration into the most popular ingredients in smart drugs How Nootropics influence your mood, social interactions, focus, attention span and memory How he used smart drugs to become an expert on smart drugs, and eventually produce them The power of Nootropics in protecting the brain from age related cognitive degeneration How to avoid compounds with side effects How one of the worlds top poker players used Ciltep to win 10 million dollars in a competition The reason plant extracts become more powerful when they are logically stacked and combined How some Nootropics makes you anti social, yet productive The benefits and risks of other smart drugs like racetams, phenibut, and modafinil The best nootropic to use to cut down or stop enjoying alcohol altogether How Nootropics effect neurotransmitters and make you happy The law of diminishing returns of megadosing How theanine balances out caffeine The influence of Steve Fowkes, the godfather of smart drugs My top recommended supplement for sleep, and how to maximize its effects by adding collagen Lifestyle recommendations For more on this episode, click here.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC. Melt away stress, boost immunity, relax & sleep deeper, improve productivity, increase brain power, get stimulation without jitters.

Have you ever wondered what it takes to create, launch, and maintain a hit podcast? As a listener, it appears as though a couple of people set up some microphones, have a chat, and by that process, an episode is effortlessly created. I remember starting my show, thinking “ I know how to find and talk to interesting people. I’ll buy some recording gear, send out a few guest request emails, and I’ll be a podcaster”. Little did I know that creating a show, and putting it out consistently requires a seemingly endless series of tasks, many of which can be extremely time-consuming, not to mention expensive.In this episode, we take a slight departure from our usual format and present a behind the scenes look into the whole process of creating and hosting a podcast. Our guests Jesse Chappus and Marni Wasserman are the creators of one of the top health podcasts in the world- The Ultimate Health Podcast. After only three years in the game, they have turned their passion into a thriving business that has become not only rewarding to them personally but also financially. What makes their story genuinely inspiring though, is that neither of them had any experience in media or broadcasting before launching their show. It’s also worth noting that they are not only co-hosts of the podcast, but also a happily married couple.Jesse and Marni take us along with them through the history of their health and healing journeys, as well as precisely how they continue to grow their audience and strengthen their relationship and financial independence at the same time.If you are a fan of podcasts or have ever dreamed of starting your own, this is the show for you. Having my podcast has been a dream come true, but it has not been without struggle. Along with Jesse and Marni, I reveal in this episode the rewards and challenges we've experienced, and precisely what to expect if you someday take to the mic and create your own show. As rewarding as it is, it's not for the faint of heart.As of today my show has been downloaded 959,314 times. My goal is to reach 1M downloads by New Years Eve 2017. Would you be willing to help? All you have to do is share this episode with one friend, and ask them to do the same. Ease breezy.Here’s to an amazing year, and and even better one to come.Luke Topics Discussed on Today's Episode:     The importance of quality couple time and me time when balancing life as a busy entrepreneur The importance of sharing life values with your partner Is it hard to be in a coupleship if one of you is vegan and the other not Strategies for getting support if your partner isn’t on the same page regarding health, wellness, diet etc Why they started one of the top health podcasts in the world We look behind the curtain into the business of podcasts, and they share exactly how podcasts work, and how they were able to monetize from it The rewards and risks involved in podcasting The power of using a podcast to build professional relationships How advertising on podcasts work, and all of the costs involved in running one The importance of podcast sound quality, and growing your show + keeping listener retention Why your number of iTunes downloads is one of the most important goals, and why iTunes reviews matter Recommendations for listeners who want to support their favorite show How Jesse deals with negative feedback and online trolls Creating a supportive and healthy community online, and offline and why a facebook group is more powerful than a page Why they bailed on twitter, and how to know which channel you should bail on if you are a content creator Their secret to creating consistent content How to biohack your dog, and why raw food is the best The dangers of vaccinating your dog, which ones are most important and how to do it safely Buying puppies from a valid breeder VS. adopting a rescue Lifestyle recommendations  For MORE about this Episode THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC. Melt away stress, boost immunity, relax & sleep deeper, improve productivity, increase brain power, get stimulation without jitters.

What if everything you thought you knew about fitness was wrong? Imagine if much of the effort you've exerted in the gym over the years turned out to be a waste of time? Have you ever been disappointed by your muscle gain or fat loss efforts? Or perhaps you've ignored the issue altogether because you didn't identify with the bodybuilding jocks and meatheads who seem to make up the majority of gym culture.No matter what your level of knowledge, experience, or even interest in the world of fitness is, our guests Sal Di Stefano and Adam Schafer from the mega-hit podcast MindPump and are here on the show to deliver the most epic, myth-busting interview ever. They've spent their entire adult lives relentlessly researching and testing every workout and fitness supplement on the planet, and have determined what's effective, safe, dangerous, and in some cases downright BS, and during this interview, they pull no punches when it comes to delivering the raw, uncut truth.With the availability of so much misinformation and continuously evolving scientific research, you owe it to yourself to listen to this cutting-edge report on the current state of affairs in the world of fitness. By the end of this marathon double episode, you'll not only gain a broad understanding or your body, and what forms of exercise best serve it, but you'll also likely laugh your ass off- which also happens to be excellent for your health.Welcome to the wild world of MindPump.

This unique 'Bootleg Broadcast' episode of the show is a live recording of a recent talk I gave in West Hollywood California, to celebrate my 100th episode of The Life Stylist Podcast.Having devoted the past twenty-plus years of my life to spiritual growth and metaphysical understanding, it seems that the next phase of my journey is naturally guiding me down the path of sharing my experiences with live audiences, as an inspirational (albeit reluctant) teacher of sorts.This raw, unedited live recording is my second-ever public talk, witch attempts to tackle the sometimes challenging topics of god, ego, and spiritual liberation. After receiving such an abundance of positive feedback on my recent debut presentation at Cap Beauty in NYC, and constant requests for more spiritually-based content, I've decided to put this show out as an exercise of courage and vulnerability. If there's one thing I've learned in my first year as a podcast host, it's that people want the truth. They want something real. And the paradox of that fact is that the more open I become about my spiritual life, the more people relate to it and derive hope and inspiration from my experience on the path to enlightenment.But why should we care about the spiritual part of life anyway? What's the point? Ask yourself the following questions, and you may arrive at a place of curiosity, if not a legitimate desire to know more.Are you able to find peace in your pain? Can you reach and maintain a level of surrender in your life to the point that you rarely get rattled by the day to day stresses of the human experience? Do you control your mind, or does it control you? These are but a few of the questions I attempt to tackle in this introspective episode.Although this particular lecture is highly spontaneous and meandering, there are a couple of consistent themes, such as: How to escape the pain of the ego mind by walking through the inevitable pain in life The importance of strictly avoiding negative, thoughts, deeds and actions The  immense power of self-love and acceptance How and why I started the podcast, and how it has served my personal development and evolution I hope that this talk and ones like it which are likely to follow can provide a light-hearted and accessible approach to living a spiritually-centered life. The beautiful thing about finding salvation is that we are each free to do it in our way, and are open to choose whichever path best suits our current level of development and understanding.May you find god in whatever form gives your life meaning and fulfillment.Luke For more about this episode Topics Discussed: I begin by taking the crowd through Breath of Fire warm up- one of my top Kundalini yoga practices We do what I call Alpha wave “surfing" to encourage production of flow state, bliss and positive emotions How my own suffering gave me the willingness to change, and my journey from rebellion to humility How this  podcast became my vehicle for sharing my experience, but most of all, my personal growth and expansion The difference between the higher self vs. ego self, and how to determine who’s controlling your life The fantasmagoria of the mind, and how most of what it tells you isn't even real How to curb neurosis and knowing that you must understand how the mind works, and learn to see through it’s falLacious beliefs Unplugging from the mind matrix and how the key to freedom begins with awareness The concept of thought-fasting and other perspective-changing techniques to deflect negative thoughts, blame, and self deception How to build your own internal gym for mental fitness, using mindfulness, meditation and self-awareness Why it’s so important to feel our painful feelings, and how to process them quickly, and with intention The fact that positive influence happens through attraction, not promotion, and how it’s pointless to try and control or influence others Q&A with audience  MY 90-DAY LIFESTYLE DESIGN COACHING PROGRAMYour opportunity to work with me one-on-one.

In this episode I had the distinct pleasure and honor to sit for a highly elevated chat with one of my favorite spiritual teachers and world renowned authorities on meditation, Sharon Salzberg. She started meditating the year I was born (1970), so it goes without saying that she had some profound insights with which to enlighten our listeners.Sharon has an exceptional gift for making somewhat esoteric Buddhist teachings accessible to the masses. If you’re someone who has struggled finding meaning and application in spiritual and religious teachings, but knows deep down that you are missing out on a more rich experience of life as a result, this episode might just be the bridge you need to cross the existential gap. On the other hand, if you’re a veteran meditator and feel as though you’ve got this whole ‘mindfulness’ thing down, you will no doubt be pleasantly reminded of some basic, yet easy to forget universal truths.During this interview Sharon shares endless nuggets of simple, yet powerful wisdom that she has derived from all her years of spiritual work and teaching. From hanging out with the Dalia Lama, to sitting for thousands or hours of meditation (around 15,000 by my estimate) Sharon has unlocked the secrets to happiness, fulfillment and peace in our sometimes chaotic and confusing world. If you’re ready to take your consciousness to the next level, sit back and join me and Sharon in this guided meditation, followed by a profound, yet funny and irreverent conversation about life between a student and teacher of sorts.Please take a moment to think of one person you know who could use some help embracing a spiritual perspective on life, then share this very special episode with them. Alternatively, if you feel like everyone in the world could use a bit of enlightenment, go the extra mile by posting this show to Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. You’ll be doing me, Sharon, yourself, and the world a great service.May whatever you call god bless you,Luke Topics Discussed on Today's Episode:   We talk about the fact that she’s been meditating exactly as long as I’ve been alive What it was like for her to travel to India for her first 10-day Vipassana meditation, and why she went the route of the buddhist tradition, while so many of her contemporaries leaned toward Hindu-based teachings Why she never chose to take on a special spiritual name, or wear guru costumes, and how she has managed to avoid the trappings of a spiritual ego The value in taking a ‘householders’ approach to spirituality Then Sharon treats us to a short ‘idiots guide to Buddhism’ where she breaks down the origins of the tradition and some of its teachers Why she still chooses to live in NYC some of the time, and what value a big city holds for spiritual growth Her views on social media and device addiction The fine line between making a positive contribution to the world and being a fanatical activist How she has discovered the path to freedom from the mind, and why she’s devoted her life to teaching it The fact that in life pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional We explore the idea that mindfulness is not passive, but rather surrendered action How to become free of negative attachments What is the hungry ghost, and how we can avoid being trapped by our desires How reincarnation effects our lives Sharon’s views on the value of the 12 Steps Program We talk about Real Love, her 10th book and what role compassion toward ourselves and others plays in our lives Lastly Sharon gives us her prediction on where the current spiritual movement is taking us, and how she’s hopeful for the future state of mankind’s evolution Lifestyle recommendations For MORE about this Episode WATCH IT on YouTube! MY 90-DAY LIFESTYLE DESIGN COACHING PROGRAMYour opportunity to work with me one-on-one.

Do you know anyone with Lyme disease or autoimmune issues? I do. My mom. It's devastated her life over the past 20 years. I'm determined to find a solution and based on what I discovered in this interview; I may have finally done just that. Keep reading....Lyme disease is the fastest growing vector-borne, infectious disease in the U.S., according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.40 percent of Lyme patients end up with long-term health problems, according to the International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society. The average patient sees five doctors over nearly two years before being diagnosed.Short treatment courses have resulted in upwards of a 40 percent relapse rate, especially if treatment is delayed. This disease sucks. And so do most of the solutions available to those who suffer from this debilitating condition.This is where our guests Aaron and Geneva Bigelow come in. Aaron, Geneva and one of their daughters used to suffer from debilitating Lyme symptoms. Over the course of ten years, Aaron was pledged by the disease. He tried all kinds of natural as well as medical healing modalities and spent 100's of thousands of dollars on treatments like ozone, and cleansing, to no avail.Having traveled the world seeking a solution to their family's decade-long challenge with this life-threatening disease, they ultimately stumbled across a technological solution to help address Lyme-related symptoms, including co-infections, autoimmune conditions, and other health challenges.

Do you like yourself? If so how much? Can you go so far as to say that you genuinely love and accept yourself? Do you have the level of success on the material plane that you feel you deserve or are you continually struggling to measure up to your self-imposed expectations, only to fall short repeatedly? Have you ever contemplated the degree to which the results you achieve from your daily efforts in life are directly and exclusively dictated by your subconscious opinions of yourself? Did you know that it’s possible to change your relationship to yourself, and create one that truly honors who your are, in your most authentic expression?Our guest Lacy Phillips is going to show you exactly how your past trauma led to your current shame, and how and why you might just be your own worst enemy in the struggle to create a life of meaning and fulfillment.

Lacy provides us with a roadmap by which to dismantle the hidden walls which keep us in predictable, repetitive patterns of playing small and not living up to our highest potential.In this episode, you'll get the recipe to Lacy's secret sauce of success, and learn not only how to identify exactly what thoughts and habits are holding you back, but also how to use the power of manifestation to create the life you were indeed born to live.

What do Zombies, bikers, and god have in common? Our guest Jeff Kober is a man with that answer. He's a veteran Hollywood actor, who's appeared in dozens of television shows and films (including The Walking Dead and Sons of Anarchy), all the while practicing and teaching meditation and Vedic philosophy. He also happens to be my personal spiritual mentor and teacher. In this truly epic and enlightening episode, Jeff shares his insights on the entire creative process of being an artist, and how to avoid letting the ego rob you of a fulfilling experience of honest self-expression. He describes how he uses his 30 years of meditation practice, and his many pilgrimages to India to not only fuel his success as an actor, but also to manage and guide his entire life. During these two hour-long episodes, you will learn how to apply deeply esoteric spiritual practices into your daily life, no matter what particular belief system you belong (or don’t belong) to. Jeff has an uncanny ability to translate his vast body of spiritual knowledge and understanding of god into straightforward and relatable terms. It’s pretty awesome. By the end of this episode, you will quite possibly make peace with the existence of evil here on earth, and find a means by which to recontextualize your subjective and worldly experiences of suffering into valuable lessons. For, after all, most of what we each see and feel each day are merely projections of the mind and ego. Jeff is going to teach us all how we can learn to disidentify with those parts of ourselves that are not real and get grounded in The Ultimate Reality. Sit back and enjoy the journey from your mind to your heart. Please pass this show along to someone you know who could use some simple answers to life's most complicated questions.

Are you interested in spirituality, yoga, and new age philosophy, but are concerned that you'll lose your edge, end up living a sexless, monastic life in a cave? Or perhaps you have avoided exploring the metaphysical side of life because you think that everyone in that scene is a flakey woo-woo nut job?In this episode, I sit down with Desiree Pais, one of NYC's favorite Kundalini yoga teachers and thought leaders on the local scene. And guess what? She lives a conscious, spiritually-centered life but still creates great art, loves boys, Instagram, fashion, rap music, and (almost) ever other earthly pleasure just like the rest of us ordinary folk.We talked about so many random, yet fascinating topics that I struggle to write an adequate description of this episode. In the interest of simplicity, I'll tease some of the general territories we covered: Enjoying material success and possessions without letting them possess you, overcoming your ego by doing embarrassing shit, curing acne with Chinese medicine, how being a raw vegan almost killed her, why cockroaches are a superfood in some Taoist traditions, the power of mantras, and how to get over feeling awkward when you sing them.The overall takeaway from this raw and intimate talk with Desiree is that you can live a healthy, spiritual life in the big city, yet have fun, thrive, and continue to pursue your enlightenment at the same time. Desiree proves that you can fully immerse yourself in the spirit world while keeping your two designer-clad feet firmly planted on the ground. As long as you keep a sense of humor about it all, you can help other seekers on the path do the same along the way.Please pass this episode along to someone you know who could use a little spiritual boost, but needs that boost powered by down-to-earth realness.To your path,Luke For more about this Episode.Topics Discussed on today's Episode:  How she cured herself of cystic acne, depression, eating disorder and even low self-esteem using Chinese medicine, yoga, and mind control How she uses kundalini yoga kriyas, sexual energy, and rap music to build her confidence  The dangers of self-obsession Overcoming your own ego and self-consciousness by doing embarrassing shit  How to be a yogi and not lose your edge How meditation feeds creativity  How becoming a raw vegan destroyed her health, and how hard it is for some people to digest raw food Why cockroaches are considered a superfood to some Taoist masters The hidden inspiration behind high fashion How what you wear effects your mood and energy, and the value of high fashion as art Overcoming attachments to materialism The theory behind the chakra system, and how the first three relate to and control your primary instincts  The power of singing mantras, and how rough it is when the mantras are sung in English.  Overcoming the awkwardness of dancing in yoga class Lifestyle recommendations MY 90-DAY LIFESTYLE DESIGN COACHING PROGRAMYour opportunity to work with me one-on-one.

Have you ever thought to yourself "I know I'm a lot smarter than I feel."? Does your brain have a hard time keeping up with the demands you put on it? Do you have control over the degree to which you experience brain fog and lack of focus and concentration?If you answer affirmatively to any or all of these inquiries, you might want to consider giving your brain some assistance in the form of nootropics and smart drugs. These are compounds (some natural, some not so much) that assist your brain in functioning at a higher level. Some of them have been clinically proven to improve memory, creativity, focus, concentration, computation, processing speed, and data analysis. In other words, you can hack your brain and become more intelligent by consuming various supplements produced for that purpose.Sounds great right? Who doesn't want to be a bit sharper, especially if that edge can be achieved by popping a few pills each morning?The issue that naturally arises when one considers taking one of these 'magic pill' shortcuts is knowing what to take, and when. What about negative side-effects, and possible dangerous interactions? And how do you know which brands to trust?Well, luckily for you and all of the listeners to this episode, one of the world's leading experts on the subject joined the show to share his knowledge and experience in all things brain-hacking. Dr. Dan Stickler has been researching and using various nootropics for years and is a seemingly endless source of expertise in this fascinating area of personal optimization.So put on your seatbelt, and prepare for takeoff.

Have you or someone close to you ever been diagnosed with depression or some other mental disorder? Was psychiatric intervention sought out as a means by which to overcome it? Did talk therapy alone work, or did your doctor recommend further treatment in the form of a pharmaceutical solution? If you went on meds, were you told you might need them for the rest of your life? And if you did, in fact, take the medication, was it effective? When you decided it was time to stop taking it, did you experience side effects? I sure did. I've been down this road before, and it's one I would certainly like to avoid taking again. That's why I tracked down this episode's guest, Dr. Kelly Brogan. I wanted to find out what the hell what 'depression' and 'anxiety' actually are, and to discover which lifestyle, dietary, and spiritual solutions might not only be more efficient, but also much safer than the Big Pharma merry go round.Kelly Brogan is one of the nations leading psychiatrists and has helped thousands of patients find natural, practical solutions to depression and other mental and emotional issues through her private practice, and well as in her wildly popular online programs.You will be shocked to find out some of the shockingly limited success rates of traditional, allopathic treatment modalities, and crude (and often inaccurate) methods of diagnosis. But more than anything, what you will gain from this episode is a deeper understanding of the human condition, including our deep-seeded need for human connection, love, and a spiritual orientation to our life experience.It turns out that many of us who have been misdiagnosed and over-medicated are not in fact 'broken' and in need of medical intervention, but rather we are stuck. Since we're not broken, we don’t need fixing. We just need to get unstuck. We need to learn how to orient ourselves in the world in a way that does not necessitate masking and dumbing our discomfort, but rather learning how to live and love our way through it.Listen and learn. Then pass this show along to someone you know who could use a little boost of hope.To your health,Luke For more about today's episode Listen on YouTube!

Can making fun of yourself (and everyone else) who's into health & wellness, spirituality, and yoga get you to enlightenment? Today’s guest, JP Sears, thinks you can. Base on this interview, he might just be there already himself.But who is JP Sears anyway? You’ll most likely know him for his hilarious, and consistently viral videos on health, various diets, biohacking, and for being 'ultra-spiritual.'In this interview, we discover how JP uses satire and humor as a trojan horse by which to infiltrate the minds and spirits of his viewers, in order to usher in a deeper, more meaningful understanding of life.Self-awareness is a powerful tool by which we can objectively see ourselves as we really are. But how well can we accurately do that? We people are creatures of habit, and often need another set of eyes to reflect reality back to us.

What do Indian Hatha yoga, Taoist principles, Chinese medicine, and sacred geometry have in common? They all make up the core of this insanely transformative style of yoga known as Katonah. And our guest in this paradigm- bending episode has been teaching and practicing this esoteric form of yoga in New York for twenty-five years. If you've practiced this style of yoga, you already get it. Just click play and listen to Abbie break it all down. If you've not yet experienced this form (or any form for that matter) of yoga, then keep reading about my recent personal experience that led to the recording of this episode.I discovered Katonah Yoga and Abbie Galvin on a recent podcast tour of New York City, at the recommendation of a Life Stylist listener that I happened to meet at a sound bath at The Woom Center, a few doors down from Abbie's studio on Bowery.I signed up for my first Katonah class online that night, then dropped into The Studio the next morning- and I haven't been the same since. Having been a practitioner of various styles of yoga for twenty years, I was expecting some version of a typical yoga flow class that day. What I experienced in Abbie's class was nothing less than incredible. It became quickly evident that this class was more of an intense, small-scale workshop than another teacher-led Hatha flow. This was spiritual science in the flesh. It was physical and emotional transformation, using a seemingly mystical amalgam of various teachings all at once. Using chairs, blocks, blankets, and various other props, Abbie led me and my body through postures and poses that I would have previously thought impossible. This practice had depth, and a seemingly endless potential for expansion. I was sold. So immediately following class I bum rushed Abbie for an interview, to which she graciously agreed.In this episode, Abbie does what only a great master teacher can do: Take nonlinear, universal principles of truth, and distill them down into practical terms in a relatable, simple vernacular. This interview is an exploration into not only the art and magic of Katonah yoga, but of life itself. Its a celebration of the ancient wisdom that has no attainable destination. That’s why it’s called a practice. No matter how hard you try, you never quite arrive. And that’s the true beauty of the journey.Enjoy the ride,LukeFor more about this episode Topics Discussed on today's Episode: How and when did Abbie find Katonah yoga, and what is it about? Other forms of yoga she’s practiced, and the current state of affairs in the yoga scene at large The fact that the purpose of yoga was originally intended to prepare the body for meditation Her belief that most yogic movement is not inherently natural to humans  Why she believes the concept of origami folding is more powerful than simply stretching  The importance of strengthening the nervous system to deal with the day to day stresses of life  How the patterns in the body directly mimic patterns in nature  Why Katonah yoga mixes Taoist Chinese theory and indian hatha yoga, and how that actually happened in the first place How the Taoist principles of pattern, and Yin and Yang and nature play into the Katonah practice  The role that sacred geometry plays in Katonah Why are chairs used as the various props used in this practice, and why are they so crucial to its effectiveness? What sort of physical transformations Abbie has seen in all of her years as a teacher? The science behind joint function, and how they relate to the human skeleton and structure, and how Katonah yoga makes your bones stronger How the the body’s organ systems are effected by this practice?  Why community, and teacher/student support and interaction is so crucial to the practice  How Katonah yoga uses various props to create scaffolding to retrain the body’s structure throughout the postures The purpose of yogic breathwork, and its effect on the body How to live your life as a yoga practice, rather than leaving it on the mat, and why she believes yoga is not exercise  How does Katonah yoga effect people’s sexuality?

Have you ever thought about why your favorite music makes you feel so elated, while jackhammers on the street outside probably have the opposite effect? Did you know that sound vibration can not only change your consciousness, but that it can also heal your mind and body? It sounds like a bunch of woo woo nonsense right? Well, it turns out that there is a lot of empirical and anecdotal evidence to support this theory. There is also a massively exploding interest in sound therapy in the current yoga and meditation scene. Sound baths or sound 'experiences' are becoming ever more popular these days at retreats and workshops the world over.Our guest Nate Martinez is a multi-faceted musician, who has not only made a living playing secular music with legends like The Grateful Dead's Bob Wier, but has also become a popular fixture on the New York new age circuit as a sound therapy practitioner.Using a wide array of rare and strange musical instruments, bells, rattles, whistles, gongs, crystal bowls, and even his voice, Nate has become widely known for his ability to drop sound bath participants (including your faithful host) into the void of blissful stillness with his mind-blowing sound meditation sessions.In this episode, Nate talks to us about the spiritual nature of noise, and how it can be used to soothe the nervous system, and even facilitate spiritual revelations and experiences. It turns out there is a lot more to music than meets the ear, and Nate Martinez is just the guest with which to explore this fascinating area of spiritual research and development.Please do yourself, Nate, me, and a lucky friend a favor by sharing this episode with your favorite music lover.To your ears,Luke For more about this episode What sound healing means  Peer to peer musician chat, and his participation with Bob Weir   What's the difference between sound baths/sound meditation and musical performances/concerts? How sound impacts every moment of our lives and how often we're manipulated by it? Why are we drawn to sound/music and why does it play such an important role in our lives How we listen and the intentions around structured, commercial music: exploring our individual dietary needs for sound How music affects memory recall, and the effects it has especially on Alzheimers patients Brainwaves, sound frequencies, binaural beats and the concept of brain entrainment The mystery and conspiracy of A440 tuning  How sound influences and can shift our brainwaves and assist in achieving meditative states Some of the instrumentations used in sound bath How our subconscious memories of music influence our moods and emotions How we can incorporate sound therapy techniques and gain a better understanding of our environment to distinguish unhealthy sounds and learn to avoid them  Finding ways to use sound as a tool for mindfulness Lifestyle recommendations  MY 90-DAY LIFESTYLE DESIGN COACHING PROGRAMYour opportunity to work with me one-on-one.

Do you meditate? Or do you think meditation is the privilege and skill of bearded yogis nestled deep in the Himalayas? Do you say you're 'too busy' to meditate, or that it's 'too hard'?It’s true. Meditation can be hard, without the proper training and support. And if you happen to live in a city, you're in an especially tough position: The stress of urban life basically makes meditation crucial for survival (and happiness) but at the same time, the tempo of city living often makes it impossible to find the time or place to give your practice the dedication it deserves.This is exactly where our guest Ellie Burrows comes in. She is not only an avid meditator, but also lives in New York City. Through her business MNDFL, she's made it not only possible- but easy- for frenzied city dwellers to find the solace of meditation amongst the honking horns and ground-shaking trash trucks.Part of a new, conscious-minded school of entrepreneurs, Ellie has created an urban spiritual oasis, and as a result, has helped inspire a quickly growing network and community of spiritually oriented businesses in The Big Apple.In this fun, and enlightening conversation Ellie shares her personal story of spiritual discovery, the challenges of creating MNDFL, and her vision of making meditation a regular part of life for the average person who has no intention of renouncing civilization in favor of a luxury deprived, monastic existence.For the sake of humanity (and the sanity of our nations cities) please share this episode with a meditator or mindful entrepreneur you know.To your peace,Luke For more about the show Topics Discussed on today's Episode: How Ellie left a career in film to pursue her spiritual path The journey of how her business MNDFL meditation came to be, and how she learned to connect consciousness to her career The current state of affairs in New York city's spiritual community, and the positive effects meditations centers like MNDFL are having on the city The importance of re-branding spiritually centered businesses to appeal to a more broad audience How meditation drop in centers encourage user consistency, and overcoming the challenges of keeping up a meditation practice Seeing the benefits of meditation, and the consequences of losing your practice Facing the reality that being spiritually committed is anything but stardust and moonbeams; it gets uncomfortable The importance of facing your demons, and walking through the many dark nights of the soul Spiritual first-aid kit: the two most powerful tools for overcoming emotional pain Lifestyle recommendations  MY 90-DAY LIFESTYLE DESIGN COACHING PROGRAMYour opportunity to work with me one-on-one.
