Key Takeaways
- The body is a self-adapting machine so the less you feed it the less you feel hungry, the more you feed it the hungrier you feel
- Working out means moving every hour and exercising throughout the day
- With processed food products your senses are being tricked into thinking it tastes amazing, with clean fruit, vegetables, fish, and meat your senses are able to determine if you need it or not
- You should learn to use and trust your senses about what you need to eat
- It’s okay to be silent and just think and this can be a game changer.
- Having a morning routine and five minutes of silence has really accelerated my progress
- My productivity has increased significantly with a good routine
- If you stand on grass there is a physiological response with the free electrons helping to stabilise cortisol and lower feelings of anxiety and stress
- Diet and gut health are the key, every symptom is a message telling you something
- Optimised sleep is when your body repairs the damage so you need to get enough good sleep
- If you are not hydrated or getting the right minerals you will not heal and your body and mind won’t be able to work effectively
- The bio hacks you should be doing are about getting the fundamentals right – remove all processed food from your diet and get your gut optimised
Best Moments
‘The body is a very smart piece of machinery that we have been gifted
‘Standing on grass changes the way you feel, very quickly changing the electrical charge in the body’
‘You have to get the fundamentals right’
