The Life Stylist

Did you know that the world we perceive with our five senses represents but a fraction of the reality that surrounds us? Beyond our standard perception lies an infinite realm, with dimensions of time snd space seldom experienced by most people. What would it be like if you were able to see, feel, and hear a metaphysical, phenomenal universe right here on earth? It's hard to imagine something you've not yet experienced, is it not? As we learn from this conversation, just because you can't experience the supernatural, doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. In this episode, we explore non-physical reality with modern day shaman and healer Mama Medicine, AKA Deborah Hanekamp. Since she was a little girl, Deborah has been able to see and experience realms of reality seldom perceptible by most people. Over the years she's learned to hone her skills and to channel her healing abilities in the most powerful of ways and to help people work through a vast spectrum of challenges both physical, mental, and spiritual. Her shamanic healing work as a Reiki Master and clairvoyant has gained her much notoriety in the consciousness community of New York City, and beyond. She's facilitated Medicine Reading ceremonies all over the world, in addition to her regular sessions in her Soho headquarters, Space By Mama Medicine.   If you've ever wondered if ghosts, auras, and astral travel were merely fantasies of human imagination or actual reality, this mind-bending, soul-healing conversation might be just what the Dr. ordered. Take a deep breath, sit back, and enjoy a journey into the unknown with Mama Medicine. If you know someone who could use some more wonder and magic in their lives, please do them a favor and pass this episode along. The world could use more plenty more beings of light. To your superpowers, Luke

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for listening, and joining me on this journey we call life.

Do you believe that as you age, your health and energy have to decline, and that eventual disease is unavoidable? There is a widespread misconception that aging equals illness. Luckily, through lifestyle changes, alternative medicine, and various natural healing modalities, we now have the power to alter the course of our future, and defy the odds that lean toward our eventual decline into degenerative disease and premature aging.

Our guest Dr. Jane Goldberg takes us on a journey through her last 30+ years as an anti-aging enthusiast. She might just be one of the world's first female biohackers, and has such a rich history in the realm of natural healing that we could barely fit this dense interview into two full-length interviews.

Jane and I spent over three hours in her cutting-edge La Casa Spa and Wellness Center in New York City, trying out all of the various health tech gadgets she uses in her practice, and chatting about everything she's discovered in her three decades of research.

If you're interested in maintaining a youthful appearance, cultivating boundless energy, and remaining free of chronic illness and for many years to come, this comprehensive overview will give you years worth of habits, and lifestyle hacks that you can begin to implement right away.

The Life Stylist Podcast is about not only looking young, but feeling young at heart, and in energy. Do someone you love a favor and share this episode with them so that they can have an easy-to-follow roadmap of alternative medicine and healing therapies to apply themselves.

Here’s to living forever. Or at least living well for as long as we’re here.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for listening, and joining me on this journey we call life.

In today's climate of spiritual trends, meditation has become one of the hottest. And of course, right? I mean, after all, one of the most axiomatic principles ever uttered by a human is ‘know thyself,' right? And what better way to get to know yourself, but to spend some time alone in silence.

But how long would it take to benefit from the practice of quiet introspection? How long could you be silent? How many hours per day could you enjoy (or tolerate) a sitting meditation? How about ten or twenty days without talking to a single soul, spending hour after hour just sitting there doing NOTHING. To some, this prospect sounds like heaven and of course, to others who are less acquainted with their inner selves, this idea might seem utterly terrifying.

Our guest Diego Perez (AKA Yung Pueblo) is a veteran of many an inner journey and provides us with a fascinating play by play report on precisely what happens on a Vipassana silent meditation retreat.

From this episode, you'll gain a deep understanding of not only the specific protocol of the various meditation retreats but also of the fundamentals of Buddhism, and how to apply the simple yet profoundly powerful principles of the lineage to your everyday life. After all, it's not only what happens on your meditation cushion that matters, but more so how you're able to integrate this ancient wisdom and cause ripples of positive energy to wash over your every moment and to everyone you might encounter on your earthbound journey.

Listen, as Yung Pueblo drops knowledge bombs of immense power onto your consciousness, then take a moment to transmit that peace to someone you love by sharing this extraordinary episode with them.

Here's to your practice,

Luke

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for listening, and joining me on this journey we call life.

Do you live a healthy lifestyle? If you found your way to this podcast, it's likely that you eat organically, take your vitamins, and do your best to avoid toxins in your environment. You drink clean water, filter your air, and use natural cleaning and body care products. You workout, do yoga, run, and get plenty of good sleep. But what if you were missing a huge piece of the health puzzle? Maybe even the most critical part?

The truth is that no matter how health conscious you are, in today's industrialized world we are all exposed to thousands of chemicals on a daily basis. Our air, water, food, earth, and even the buildings we live and work in have been polluted with toxins for at least the past 150 years. It is virtually impossible to avoid the physical accumulation of these substances no matter how much you try. It's almost guaranteed that your body was loaded with a toxic burden before you were even born, due to the environmental and dietary exposure you mother received before and during pregnancy. In this day and age, we’re all born polluted.

It's now widely understood and accepted by mainstream medicine and science that most, if not all chronic, and degenerative diseases are caused at least in part by our acute, or long-term exposure to these toxins. Name any condition, and at the root of it, you will find, at least to some degree, toxin exposure.

If it's impossible to avoid the accumulation of toxins, even if we make a serious effort to live a healthy lifestyle, what can we do to live a long, and disease-free life? The answer is not living in a bubble of paranoia and sealing ourselves off from the dangers of exposure. The solution to the issue of toxification is of course detoxification. We've got to get this waste out of our bodies. Sounds easy enough, right? But how do you safely and efficiently clean the inside of your body without making the situation worse, or wasting your time doing it incorrectly?

Our guest Dr. Daniel Pompa has made a career and amassed tens of thousands of followers by teaching the most cutting edge, and practical methods by which to detoxify your body. In this episode you will learn about his 5-stage detox protocol, that is widely respected all over the world as one of the most scientifically valid, and powerful protocols for purifying your body, and keeping it that way.

By the end of this episode, you'll have a deep understanding of the fundamental principles of detoxification, and the mistakes most people make when trying to do it themselves.

If you know anyone that's been exposed to toxins (everyone you know), do them a favor and share this episode with them.

To your health and happiness,

Luke

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for listening, and joining me on this journey we call life.

Do you like to get high? Come on, you can admit it. You might not fancy smoking crack in a back alley, but chances are better than even that if you have a pulse, at some point in your life you have used something to alter your state of mind. Your drug of choice might have been chocolate, or maybe just refreshing your Instagram feed one more time, but no matter who you are, we all like to get that hit. To feel happy- to feel free. Or at the very least, distracted.

Since the beginning of time, humans have loved to expand their perception of reality and to explore the unknown realms of their inner universe. Through our evolution, we've systematically discovered every mind-altering substance on the planet, and if we couldn't find it, we made it. We've erected sophisticated laboratories, and scoured the jungle floors of The Amazon, all in the great pursuit of getting off. No matter what means we've used to expand our consciousness, the basic fact remains: By and large; people like to get lit.

However, when most of us pursue a psychoactive experience, we almost always look outside of ourselves for the chemistry by which to induce the desired state. Except for orgasmic climax, people generally defer to some external stimuli when it comes to escaping the confines of our ordinary embodied state of being.

Our guest in this episode, Elian Zach, has made it her life's mission to help people explore the inner dimensions of their minds and souls using two tools older than humankind itself: vibration and oxygen. Or in the case of her uber-popular New York City yoga/meditation hideaway Woom Center, sound and breath. Using an endless array of obscure and outlandish instruments, light shows, and shamanic breathwork practices, she and her partner/husband David Zach-Shemesh regularly take their devoted community of Manhattan cosmonauts on sonic journeys that fall nothing short of miraculous. I’ve taken many a trip with them, and each time experienced a profound shift within, which is why I just had to capture some of that mojo and share it with you.

In this epic, double episode, you will learn everything you ever wanted to know about reaching nirvana here on earth. But perhaps the best part is that the only ticket you need to take this psychic cosmonautical voyage is your mind, body, spirit, and breath. Not to mention you can leave out the hangovers, and felony controlled-substance possession charges.

Do yourself, and humanity a favor and share this episode with one friend who could use some soul liberation right now.

May the longtime sun shine upon you,

Luke

In this epic, double episode, you will learn everything you ever wanted to know about reaching nirvana here on earth. But perhaps the best part is that the only ticket you need to take this psychic cosmonautical voyage is your mind, body, spirit, and breath. Not to mention you can leave out the hangovers, and felony controlled-substance possession charges.

Do yourself, and humanity a favor and share this episode with one friend who could use some soul liberation right now.

May the longtime sun shine upon you,

Luke

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for listening, and joining me on this journey we call life.

Would you like to be able to hit your flow state on demand? Can you imagine having command over your mental focus, creativity, memory, and even your emotions? What a different world it would be if we humans held the power optimize our consciousness, and as a result, our psychological relationship to each other, and to the planet we all inhabit.

Our guest Daniel Schmachtenberger has dedicated his life to figuring out simple solutions to complex problems. The world is a complicated place. Health and happiness tend to elude many of us, due to how overwhelming it can be to figure it all out. Most of us have a desire to make a positive contribution to the world and to derive meaning from our lives, but often don’t know where to start.

But to effect positive change globally, we each need a method by which to improve ourselves on a micro level, before branching out to make the monumental changes we likely need to thrive, or perhaps even survive, as a species. Daniel believes that more significant societal issues will more easily be solved using a broad, systemic approach. The catch is that we as individuals have to get our biology and mindset in order first.

His mission is gaining momentum through Neurohacker Collective, an organization dedicated to discovering the most cutting-edge technologies for human performance. Their flagship product, Qualia, has taken the nootropic and smart drug world by storm and has quickly emerged as one of the most widely respected, highly studied brain supplements on the market. (Just about every episode of The Life Stylist Podcast recorded in the past year has been done so under the influence of this remarkable product.)

In this mind-blowing episode, we learn not only why Daniel and his team created Qualia, exactly how and why it works so well, but also what Neurohacker Collective has in store for the future. Trust me when I say, this is not a future- or episode- you will want to miss.

As you listen to this powerfully inspiring conversation with Daniel, think of one person you know who is interested in enhancing their mental and emotional intelligence, and overall quality of life, then share this show with them via text, email, or social media.

Here's to upgrading your neurology,

Luke

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for listening, and joining me on this journey we call life.

How do you make a baby? You just add male and female bits together, and nine months later out pops a cute little tike right? Sure, that's accurate at its core, but what if you want to make a healthy baby? A healthy baby is a whole other story altogether. There are so many things to consider,  such as the two-year detox process the mother (and even father) need to embark on before conception, including the cessation of birth control pills. Then there's the period of gestation, when the mother needs to protect and nourish her body, to increase the likelihood of complication-free birth. Once the first nine months have passed, and the time of actual delivery arrives, there are endless, and profoundly impactful considerations regarding where and how to deliver the baby. The most meaningful decision is of course whether or not to have a home or hospital birth- a natural, or medicalized experience. Both have their risks and benefits. 


Then once the little one arrives into this world, parents are faced with a multitude of other choices around breastfeeding, vaccination, circumcision (male genital mutilation) and what to feed the kid once they've been weened. The whole ordeal is incredibly complicated and wrought with potential confusion and misinformation. 


Thanks to our guest Dr. Robin Berzin, you will learn the ins and outs (no pun intended) of the whole reproductive process directly from a new mom, who's done all of the research herself from start to finish, applying the most cutting-edge knowledge available to date to her own birthing experience.  


Dr. Berzin not only been through it herself but has spent much of her adult life in pursuit of the most effective model of medical care, from the perspective of functional and western medicine.  From this episode, you will gain laser-focus clarity on the different options available to you and your family, and how to navigate some the most meaningful and vital decisions of your life. Decisions that will directly affect your offspring, and quite possibly the generations that will follow.


Do the world a favor and please share this profound episode with someone you know who’s likely to procreate at some point. The power of information like this cannot be over estimated. 


Here’s to making love. And happy, healthy babies.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for listening, and joining me on this journey we call life.

Welcome to the first episode of 2018!

Right about now we're all thinking about our goals and intentions for the new year and making decisions that will shape our future for this one and beyond. This means that most of us are planning strategies, and lists of actions that will deliver the results we want. But is not the common goal of almost everyone to just be happier? More satisfied? To have more peace of mind?

Well what if the actions one needs to take aren't actions at all, but rather 'non-actions'? I mean, if the end goal is peace then it stands to reason that perhaps taking some time to unwind, de-stress, and unscramble our connection to god might just be the fastest route to our desired outcome right?

Our (second time) guest Emily Fletcher has spent over a decade teaching thousands of people all over the world the fine art of doing nothing. Well, some casual onlookers might call it nothing. But for those of us in the know, myself included, we call it meditating. Yep, good old-fashioned meditation might just be the most significant performance-enhancing activity one can adopt or improve upon this year.

Meditation, which was once perceived to be a rare and unique skill only available to exalted beings and mystics from the East, has become increasingly more accessible thanks to knowledgeable (yet relatable) teachers like Emily and her genius company Ziva Meditation, the location at which this very show was recorded.

In this episode, Emily breaks down the practice of meditation in a super compelling fashion. She gives us the mystical, esoteric dynamics of meditation that seem to defy all logic, yet tickle our whimsical, curious nature, while still dropping the hard science truth bombs potent enough to break down the intellectual walls of the most prudent skeptic.

So whether you're already rooting for team woo-woo, or are so deeply entrenched in your need for 'proof' and 'the science,' you will leave this interview with an infectious excitement to learn to meditate from the start or even to ramp up your existing practice to an impactful level.

Based on my personal history of 20+ years of meditation, I can genuinely say that committing to a bonafide regular practice might just be the best thing you did for yourself in 2018, and perhaps even the most significant contribution you can make to your family, friends, and humanity as a whole, given our current and dire need for more enlightened souls on the planet.

Do all of us a favor and please share this episode with someone you know who could use some meditation in thier life, or one who just needs a little nudge to pick it up again after letting it slip away.

Here's to your consciousness rising in this glorious new year.

Luke
