Hacking your biology can have profound benefits for your health and happiness. Here are some of the ways I've incorporated biological hacks into my own life:

Sunlight Exposure: I make it a point to sit in natural sunlight for at least 30 minutes once a week to improve my mood and vitamin D levels.
Floatation Chamber: I find that meditating in a floatation chamber 3-5 times a week for at least an hour helps me relax and clear my mind.
Upside Down Exercises and Back Work: I believe in the importance of spine health and do these exercises daily to keep my back stretched and prevent back problems.

Speaking With a Good Anti-Aging Doctor: I speak with an anti-aging doctor quarterly to monitor my hormone and other levels, get advice on how to naturally raise testosterone and take supplements.
Cryotherapy: I find it beneficial to do cryotherapy for three minutes daily to help with muscle recovery and reduce inflammation.
Diet: I avoid meat and dairy as much as possible and eat fruit every morning to improve digestion and increase energy.
Fasting: I have one meal per day (dinner) and fruit in the morning. The rest of the day I fast, which has been shown to have numerous health benefits.
Caffeine Supplementation: I consume coffee daily to give me energy and focus and drink Diet Coke in the afternoon after exercising.
Magnesium and Melatonin: I take these supplements to improve my sleep quality and feel more rested each day.
NAD Supplementation: I supplement my NAD, which has been shown to have numerous health benefits and helps me feel much better.
Rapamycin: I take this supplement weekly as studies have shown it improves lifespan.
Hot Plunge: Japanese hot plunge is a great way to relax and unwind after a tough workout or a long day. It helps to relieve muscle soreness and tension, and the high temperature promotes sweating and detoxification.
Infrared Sauna: The infrared sauna is a unique way to detoxify the body, improve circulation, and promote relaxation. The heat penetrates deep into the skin, helping to flush out toxins and improve overall skin health. It is also beneficial for those suffering from joint pain, muscle stiffness, and stress.
Regular Stone-Heated Sauna: Regular use of a stone-heated sauna can help improve cardiovascular health, increase blood flow, and promote detoxification. It is also great for relieving stress and anxiety, as well as promoting overall relaxation.
Breathwork: Breathwork is a powerful way to reduce stress, improve focus, and increase energy levels. By focusing on your breath, you can reduce anxiety and calm your mind. Deep breathing also helps to improve circulation and oxygenation throughout the body.
Cold Plunge: Cold plunging is a great way to boost the immune system, increase circulation, and promote relaxation. It can help reduce inflammation and muscle soreness and improve overall skin health. Additionally, it is a great way to stimulate the mind and awaken the senses.
Hyperbaric Chamber: The hyperbaric chamber is a unique way to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and promote overall healing. By exposing the body to higher levels of oxygen, the chamber can help to boost the immune system, reduce pain and inflammation, and speed up the healing process.
Kundalini Yoga: Kundalini yoga is a powerful way to reduce stress, increase energy, and promote overall health and wellness. By focusing on breathing, movement, and meditation, you can reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. Additionally, it can help to improve flexibility, balance, and strength.
Exercise With Oxygen: Exercise with oxygen is a great way to improve cardiovascular health, increase stamina, and promote overall wellness. It can help to increase energy levels, reduce stress, and improve overall mood.
Upside-Down Exercises and Back Work: Upside-down exercises and back work are essential for maintaining spinal health and reducing the risk of back pain and injury. These exercises help to stretch and strengthen the back muscles, improving overall flexibility and mobility.
Floatation Chamber: Floatation therapy is a unique way to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and improve overall well-being. By floating in a warm saltwater solution, you can reduce muscle tension and promote deep relaxation. Additionally, it can help to improve mental clarity and focus.
Stand-Up Walking Desk: I believe that sitting for prolonged periods of time can be detrimental to my health, so I have invested in a stand-up walking desk that allows me to work while walking. I find that this not only helps me maintain my focus and concentration but also helps me burn more calories and stay physically active throughout the day.
Daily Meditation: Meditation is a powerful tool that helps me calm my mind, reduce stress, and improve my overall well-being. I make it a point to practice meditation every day, even if it's just for a few minutes. This helps me stay centered, focused, and emotionally balanced throughout the day.
Neurotech: As a firm believer in the power of technology, I regularly use neurotech devices that help improve my brain function and overall cognitive performance. This includes tools like brainwave entrainment, neurofeedback, and other brain stimulation techniques that help improve my focus, attention, and mental clarity.
Massage: Massage is another tool that I use regularly to help me relax and unwind. I find that it helps reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, and release endorphins that make me feel good. I make it a point to get a massage at least once a week, and also have massage chairs and other equipment at home that I can use whenever I need to relax.
Cupping: Cupping is believed to have many benefits, both physical and mental. It is commonly used to relieve pain and stiffness in the muscles and joints, as well as to reduce inflammation and improve circulation. Many people also use cupping as a way to promote relaxation and reduce stress, as the gentle suction of the cups can create a soothing sensation.
