#39 Dangers of Blue Light Exposure and Chronic Sleep Deprivation at the Biohacker's Live Show
Did you know that even just a few nights of poor sleep gives you the blood sugar levels of a diabetic? Getting less than ideal amounts of sleep decreases your alertness, memory, intelligence, and mood... The craziest thing about it is that you'll get used to sleep deprivation and after a while, you think that your cognitive haze and sleepiness are normal, whereas your brain is simply compensating for lack of sleep When it comes to health and wellness, then sleep is the most important thing. Your brain literally heals itself only during deep sleep and most diseases of modern life can get traced back to poor sleep patterns That's the topic of today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast. I'm your host Siim Land but this episode isn't actually going to be on the Body Mind Empowerment Podcast.

Dan is the CEO of Human.OS and he's a sleep expert and human optimizer.

#38 How to Increase Serotonin and Dopamine Levels (Of Lobsters and Men VOL 2)
Are you a sad lobster?!? Let me explain... In the previous episode, we talked about one of the most fundamental principles of your embodied experience of reality. Namely, that the way you hold your posture and in what physiological state you’re in has a profound impact on your psychological state of mind and vice versa. Jordan Peterson wrote in his book The 12 Rules of Life: An Antidote to Chaos how male lobsters engage in brutal dominance fights between each other. Winning once is going to predict the future successes of a lobster because of experiencing a boost in the neurotransmitter serotonin Serotonin plays an important role in decision making, cognitive performance, risk-seeking behavior, and social affiliations. Low serotonin will lead to low serotonin-producing behavior and depression. Therefore, if you ever want to get yourself back on the right track of health, wealth, love, and happiness, you need to know how to manage and optimize your neurotransmitters even after having suffered from detrimental defeat. That's what we'll discuss in today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast with Siim Land, some lobsters, and your brain's neurochemistry. Topics Discussed: Identifying syndromes of being a sad lobster How to know if you're depressed and serotonin deficient Why dopamine has become the bad-boy of your brain chemistry The basis for emotional addiction and apathy What causes low serotonin and dopamine How to get back to baseline and out of depression What activities and foods boost serotonin How to reignite your joy for life and happiness What supplements to take for balancing your neurotransmitters And much more...

#37 RULE NUMBER 1: Stand Up Straight With Your Shoulders Back (Of Lobsters and Men VOL 1)
What’s the most fundamental rule you should adopt in life? Here it is: Rule Number 1 Stand up straight with your shoulders back. It may sound comical and innocent but it actually has a profound impact on your overall experience of reality.This is not some self-help positive thinking bullsh#t but it’s programmed into your physiology and psyche. Jordan Peterson who’s a Canadian clinical psychologist at the University of Toronto talks about this in his latest book The 12 Rules of Life: An Antidote to Chaos. Rule Number 1 Stand Up Straight With Your Shoulders Back is a meditation on the habits and dominance hierarchies of lobsters that can apply to humans as well. That's the topic of today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast. I'm Siim Land and our guest is the human psyche...and some lobsters... Topics discussed: How the dominance hierarchy of lobsters reflects in the nervous system of humans Why you never want to be a sad losing lobster What happens if you give antidepressants to a depressed lobster How to improve your neurochemical state of mind What's so profound about standing in a confident position And much more...
