A Biohacker's Day: Catherine Knibbs #631

Donna Lancaster used to be the head of training for The Hoffman Process and she now runs The Bridge Retreat. It's described as an emotional detox and a chance to rediscover your zest for life. In this podcast we talk Marie Kondo. Decluttering (physical and emotional) The Inner Critic. And how to shut him/her up - or at least quieten him down a little bit. Releasing emotional blocks, is it a continual process, or done once done. Grief and how best to deal with it. Not one, not two but three book recommendations. And loads more. Check out The Bridge online at https://www.thebridgeretreat.com/ - I'm really hoping to go myself at some point.

He's described as "the 'mega monk' who wants us to slow down and embrace our imperfections." Haemin Sunim is one of the most influential Zen Buddhist teachers and writers in the world. What he offers, is bite-sized buddhism, and it's made him a huge celebrity. His books have been translated into over 30 languages and are great guides not only to mediation but also to overcoming the challenges of everyday life. I met him in Central London last week and as you'll hear, he instantly started turning negatives into positives. And... I loved the way he told me he reads his own books for advice. He has more than a million followers on Twitter (@haeminsunim) and Facebook. Check him out and enjoy listening.

Biohacking is a theme on this podcast. Let me explain that. I look at cutting-edge hacks for improving your health and energy. For example, ever been tempted to spend a week in a dark room with electrodes stuck to your head? I did that recently, (so you don't have to.) But it turns out cutting edge often involves natural, non-pharmaceutical ways to improve one's performance, wellness, health and longevity. I'm always all up for natural solutions. So today... Discover the tradition and science of plant-based medicine to help you live stronger, smarter, and maximize your genetic potential Oh and what the botanical biohacker Andrew Miles calls the natural viagra gets a mention too. Check out his podcast, Botanical Biohacking. We recorded this podcast a while back and am thrilled to publish it now, Andrew really knows his stuff.

Want to become better than most people at most things? Author Pat Flynn has a philosophy he calls Generalism. He says it better to be better at many things, not best at just one. From there, you combine abilities to create a competitive advantage at anything you could want—a tactic known as "skill stacking." So the question is… how do we get better at almost everything…. That's the theme of Pat's book, so I asked him that question.

I was recently on Pete Cohen's excellent Mi365 podcast, and as part of it, we had a cracking sporting geek out. He's worked with many of the world's top sportsmen and women so it seemed like the perfect opportunity to combine my love of sport, my main job, and the podcast. So you've been warned, if you're not into sport, move along, there's nothing to see here. If you do like sport, I hope you'll enjoy this excerpt from Pete's podcast.
