In this episode, we pull back the curtain on the ever-growing world of health optimization — and ask the hard question: is all this "wellness" actually working for you, or just overwhelming your nervous system?

From essential oils and scent triggers to light boxes, nature sounds, and cold splashes, we explore the rise of micro-dosing wellness — and what science says about their real impact on stress, focus, and recovery. Then, we zoom out to look at the overlooked power of your physical environment: how your home layout, lack of natural textures, or always-on tech could be draining your energy more than you think.

We also break down the growing movement of analog wellness — printed planners, vinyl, sun exposure, and morning walks — and why unplugging might be the most underrated biohack of all. Finally, we touch on wearables, smart fabrics, and biohacking tech, and where to draw the line between helpful data and harmful distraction.

This episode is a deep breath in a noisy world — and a reminder to reclaim your focus, your space, and your health.
