The Human Upgrade: Biohacking for Longevity & Performance

Analemma sponsored this episode.IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™… you’re listening to a new Upgrade Spotlight series. Once a month, these shorter episodes feature guests who get right into useful information in a Q&A style. You’ll find out how to improve your energy and upgrade your performance. You’ll also get the latest knowledge about powerful tools and technologies that allow you to change your biology and the environment around you. Introducing Analemma! During this Upgrade Spotlight with Mario Brainovic, CEO of Analemma, you’re going to find out about a tool that transforms regular water into a supercharged, full-spectrum, coherent state. The kind of water you drink absolutely influences the quality of your life. You’ll learn the science behind Analemma and what it can do for your health and energy.Why water? You think you know the basics: stay hydrated daily, avoid plastic bottles and use a filtration system at home. Well, Analemma says water goes way beyond the basics—all the way down to your cellular level. You’re 70% water in body mass, but 99% water on a molecular level. You’re basically very clever water. The Analemma device—similar in looks and function to a magic wand—radically changes the state of drinking water. Environmental forces cause H2O molecules in drinking water to behave chaotically. At an atomic level, water molecules crash into each other constantly. Your body’s susceptible to that influence.“We found a way to bring order to this chaos,” Mario says. “When you swirl an Analemma through the water, what happens is that those same H2O molecules start forming a liquid crystalline structure. They start behaving harmonically. They, colloquially speaking, join hands.”Analemma water is not exclusion zone water. It's something different. “It also is structured water, but we came to it in a very different way,” Mario says. “The key element to it is its stability.”This conversation gets right into the science of Analemma and several studies. You’ll find out how:a new study is measuring the rise in ATP levels (in mitochondrial energy) when people drink this water.this water affects the human microbiome this water reduces your biological age by one to 12 years by regenerating your cellular system, according to GlycanAge.you get an instant balancing effect between the left and the right brain hemispherehow a cooling affect happens on your brainwaves almost instantly when drinking this waterthis water restores the biodiversity of infertile soilSPECIAL OFFER FOR THE HUMAN UPGRADE LISTENERS: Go to https://analemma-water.com and use code dave10 to save 10%.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Studies show that raising core body temperature can improve major symptoms of depression.

IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™… you’ll learn how a yoga practice can be a vehicle for inner transformation. This conversation looks past the popularity of yoga as a fitness trend and into its deeper potential for human development. You’ll also learn how yoga can be a way for you to explore your whole being—from physicality to emotions to thinking.“A yoga practice often can be the missing ingredient for people,” says renowned yoga master Baron Baptiste. “Often I hear, ‘I added yoga practice to my routine and regimen, and it just shifted everything for me.’ It's a very different way of working your body, mind and breath integration.”Baron devotes his own life to the study and practices of human development. For more than 30 years, he’s facilitated education through yoga principles and teachings.His power vinyasa yoga— The Baptiste Methodology—includes the physical (asana), meditation (dhyana) and inquiry (niyama). “Iyengar was one of my primary teachers,” Baron says. “One thing I borrowed from him is the rigor to a body alignment—a True North Alignment.”Baptiste Yoga is a systematic approach made up of 53 poses, or asanas, that are linked together by connective momentum and consist of five classical pillars: Drishti (gaze), ujjayi (breath), bandhas (foundation), tapas (heat) and vinyasa (flow).More about Baron Baptiste: Baron began to seriously study yoga at age 12. As the son of two of America's yoga pioneers, he’s got a great life story that highlights the transformative power of yoga. He trained extensively in all the major traditions before beginning to teach yoga in Los Angeles in the late 80s and creating Baptiste Power Vinyasa Yoga in the mid-90s. He’s worked with celebrities, Olympians and professional athletes. He founded the Baptiste Power Yoga Institute that reaches people around the world. Baron’s also a New York Times bestselling author of multiple books, Emmy-award film maker and public speaker.WE APPRECIATE OUR PARTNERS. CHECK THEM OUT!

IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™… biohacking goes in a different direction. This frank discussion looks at the dying process and how people and those close to them (family and friends) experience death.

The conversation also explains what a “medical intuitive” does and how a medical intuitive facilitates energetic healings.Cool show today!

She also invents surgical devices that sell globally; some have been on the market for three decades. She’s founded nine companies in five different industries. She checks a lot of unconventional boxes, too. She’s a psychic and medical intuitive. This means she can sense medical conditions and illnesses in people—like a human MRI machine. Then she facilitates energetic healings and says she does a lot of work with stem cell energy.Julie scans animals, accesses people’s past lives and senses how close to death someone is. She communicates with spirits both alive and dead. Even cooler—Julie’s psychic and medical intuitive skills are learned and she teaches those skills to others.Julie talks about the “glorious” side of dying, a process that she says involves angels, multitudes of deceased family and friends, the spirits of deceased pets, and countless serendipitous (and miraculous) moments that are all part of a prescribed series of events. She calls this the “12 Phases of Transition™” and broadly outlines this in today’s episode.SPECIAL OFFERS FOR THE HUMAN UPGRADE LISTENERS: Julie’s giving a digital or audio copy of her books to every listener who wants one.
