Siim Land Podcast

What’s the most fundamental rule you should adopt in life?

Here it is: Rule Number 1 Stand up straight with your shoulders back.

It may sound comical and innocent but it actually has a profound impact on your overall experience of reality.This is not some self-help positive thinking bullsh#t but it’s programmed into your physiology and psyche.

Jordan Peterson who’s a Canadian clinical psychologist at the University of Toronto talks about this in his latest book The 12 Rules of Life: An Antidote to Chaos. 

Rule Number 1 Stand Up Straight With Your Shoulders Back is a meditation on the habits and dominance hierarchies of lobsters that can apply to humans as well.

That's the topic of today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast. I'm Siim Land and our guest is the human psyche...and some lobsters...

Topics discussed:

How the dominance hierarchy of lobsters reflects in the nervous system of humans

Why you never want to be a sad losing lobster

What happens if you give antidepressants to a depressed lobster

How to improve your neurochemical state of mind

What's so profound about standing in a confident position

And much more...

#decisionmaking #emotions #feelings

95% of your decision making is based on how you feel at any given moment

That's what the neuroscientist Antonio Damasio claims about human reasoning

When you spend a bit of time thinking about it, then you can see that this is indeed so in the majority of cases. People tend to overeat when they're tired or emotionally stressed out. They do their work only when they're motivated and they rationalize everything with their gut feeling

Don't get this the wrong way - success and mastery require you to show up day in and day out no matter how you feel...but you wouldn't want to live in such a state for too long

So, making better decisions should crucially begin with optimizing how you feel and what emotions you're feeling as to make it easier for yourself.

That's the topic of today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast. I'm your host Siim Land and our guest is Ryan Munsey from The Better Human Project. He’s a podcaster, an author, speaker and a high-performance coach who helps entrepreneurs, Navy SEALS, and athletes win medals, stay healthy and function at their peak. 

We're going to talk about: 

How Ryan and his co-host travel the States in a van and talk to fascinating people 06:00

What message is Ryan trying to give to people with his book F*ck Your Feelings 12:10

Neuroscience shows how 95% of your decisions are based on your feelings 13:00

Does your brain have competing systems that fight against each other 17:05

What’s the emotional bandwidth and how it affects your decision making 22:22

How the lobsters’ dominance hierarchy can teach you an important lesson about balancing your neurotransmitters and nervous system 30:56

What strategies can help you to get out of chronic stress and depression 32:37

The difference between optimizing states and traits 45:00

Are you dependent of supplements and limitless pills? 47:20

And much more...

#decisionmaking #emotions #feelings

“You may fetter my leg, but Zeus himself cannot get the better of my free will.”  - Epictetus

Do you have the free will to do whatever you want to do? 

"Of Course! I'm an independent individual who can make any decision I desire..." you might say at first breath...

But do you remember all those times

You've skipped a workout just because you don't feel like it

You opted for that piece of cake when at a dinner party

You spazzed out in anger at that asshole who cut in front of you

You can't stay focused on reading because your monkey mind keeps distracting you

And my favorite...

You make life-determining decisions based on how it affects your position in the dominance hierarchy of your social group and peers

Do you still have FREE WILL? 

In the midst of heated emotions, chaotic situations, ego depletion, willpower fatigue, genetic predispositions, and a world full of distractions it's difficult to say whether or not we have free will or not

Viktor Frankl, an Auschwitz camp survivalist and a psychologist, said: "Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of human freedoms - to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way."

That's the topic of today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast. I'm Siim Land and my guest is my friend Isaac Chanakira from the YouTube channel TheRealizedMan.

 

We're going to talk about:

How Isaac and built up our YouTube channels

Why you need to have faith that things can get better 03:30

What qualities are the most admirable in a person 12:12

How practicing self-control turns into a game 17:15

Does FREE WILL exist 23:01

How to build your willpower 32:30

Avoid ALL Absolutes 41:55

The Ketogenic Brain and Willpower Fatigue 48:10

#willpower #discipline #freewill

Have you noticed yourself being forgetful, confused, anxious, inflamed or tired all the time? You've tried everything - diet, exercise, sleep, hypnosis, magic pills, and wizardry but nothing works.

During his undergraduate studies, Jacob Gordon experienced just that as he was suffering from chronic brain fog and exhaustion

The reason for his suffering was a condition called chronic inflammatory response syndrome caused by exposure to mold growing in his living quarters

After years of torment and not seeing any results from the best doctors in the world, he decided to take his health into his own hands

Jacob delved into the world of epigenetics and Psycho-Neuro-Immunology (that's a mouthful), and he fixed his gut dysbiosis, lowered his chronically high histamine levels, overcame insomnia, corrected his faulty dopamine pathways and transformed his previous “unmotivated/lazy” self into a highly motivated and persuasive individual.

That's the topic of today's Body Mind Empowerment Podcast. I'm Siim Land and our guest is Jacob Gordon from MyBiohack.com

His brain literally shrunk from exposure to the mold and inflammation yet today he's running a website about cutting-edge biohacking and functional health

Topics discussed:

- How Jacob started biohacking his chronic inflammatory response syndrome 01:25- Why mold exposure made him sick - 05:35- What tests you can take to know if you have problems with mold 12:50- Can exercise make mold toxicity worse 20:01- Can antioxidants be bad for you 31:25- How can you prevent yourself against mold toxicity 41:30- Why Jacob is using a cold pack to freeze his crotch 49:25

Naturally with no entrepreneurial talent, starting off as a comedian and screenwriter in his adolescence, Tom Bilyeu co-founded the second fastest growing private company in North America Quest Nutrition and grew it by 57 000% in its first 3 years.

In 2016 Tom and his wife Lisa started Impact Theory, a for-profit media company designed to "leverage the self-sustaining power of commerce to radically influence global culture."

Currently, Impact Theory is in its community building phase and they're interviewing some of the most successful people in the world on their YouTube channel

In this episode of the Body Mind Empowerment Podcast, I'm going to be hopping on Tom's live stream on Instagram in his house in Beverly Hills

We're going to talk about

- What's the personality trait Tom's most proud of 01:40- What habit he wished he had adopted earlier 05:37- Can staying too humble backfire at your success 08:28- How Tom Bilyeu built Quest Nutrition 13:30- Tom's favorite books 14:50- Should you focus on your strengths or weaknesses 15:45- What should every person do every day 20:00- How to decide what's your most important thing for your goals 25:24- What to do when you feel stuck and lost 28:28- How do you know what to do when you don't know what to do 32:20
