The Path Of Faith: Finding Meaning W/ Meditation, Prayer, & Plant Medicine Feat. Ben Greenfield #307

You probably know Ben Greenfield as one of the world’s premiere fitness and biohacking experts and the author of best-seling books like “Boundless: Upgrade Your Brain, Optimize Your Body & Defy Aging by Ben Greenfield” — but Ben is also a deeply spiritual person.

I had heard Ben delve into his spiritual life a little bit on stage and at events, but I had never heard an episode really dedicated to it. So I reached out and he agreed that this is a really important message to share.

So, instead of our usual biohacking extravaganza, we got together to dig into Ben’s spiritual relationship and faith, psychology, mental and emotional health, Christianity, plant medicines, the principles he lives by and teaches his kids, and the most important game of all: the inner game.

If you are not emotionally and spiritually healthy, there’s only so much physical fitness can do to help you overcome life’s challenges. All the biohacking in the world won’t save you — trust me, I’ve tried. If you’re looking to get your inner game on point, this is a conversation you do not want to miss.

P.S. I have an exciting announcement for all of you: Ben has transferred all of his wisdom on health, fitness, longevity, fat loss, sleep, and more into a brand new virtual course. And he’s making it available to my audience at an even steeper discount than normal. Right now, you can get access to Ben Greenfield’s virtual 10-module course for an EXCLUSIVE 20% OFF.

Are you aware of the dangers of EMF exposure in your home, but have no idea where to start when it comes to finding, and fixing them?

Are you concerned about your exposure to the current 3G, 4G, and 5G wireless networks now activated in most major cities?

Have you attempted to test the levels yourself using EMF meters you found online and ended up confused and frustrated?

EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies) are one of the most toxic elements in our living and work environments. Due to the technical nature of accurately testing for them—and the training required to do so properly—many of us resign ourselves to the fact that we just have to accept them and the consequences they bring in order to use the modern technology we depend on. But you don’t have to.

In this seven-part video documentary series, you will follow world-renowned building biologist Brian Hoyer as he tests an entire home, room by room, to determine the source and level of every known type of EMF.

By the end of this series, you will not only be thoroughly educated on the various types and sources of EMF commonly found in homes but also of the many mitigation tools and techniques available thanks to the cutting-edge technologies.
