The Life Stylist

Have you noticed that grass-fed beef and bone broth are the hot new ‘superfoods’ in on the health and wellness scene? It seems like every food blogger is jumping on the broth bandwagon lately, which is a positive sign, and a vast improvement over many of the ‘new’ food trends that later turned out to be founded on bogus science (AKA ‘fat is bad for you’). Has it ever occurred to you, however, that these animal foods are not new in any way whatsoever?

Before the advent of modern agriculture, industrial and factory farming, all cows ate grass. That’s what cows are designed to eat, and before greedy humans figured out how to maximize profits by feeding them an unnatural diet of corn and soy, that’s all cows ever ate.

So what about this new craze called ‘bone broth’? Well, it turns out that human beings have been boiling the bones of animals to extract the vital nutrients inside since people discovered fire and pots. Long before these life-supporting animal foods became trendy, they were both staples of the hunter-gatherer diet. They have been consumed the world over for eons, and that my friend, has a lot to do with why you’re alive right now to read this. Bone broth is one of the most nutritious, healing foods on the planet. Its benefits are too numerous to mention here, but are all, of course, included in the show.

In this episode with Greg Bernett from Arizona Grass Raised beef, we explore his companies’ tireless mission to change the cattle ranching industry and to set the standard for sustainable, cruelty-free, environmentally conscious methods of producing the best beef and bone broth in the world.

You will learn many of the dirty little secrets of how animals are raised and treated in the US food system, and why so many of the methods used are not only bad for us, but also dangerous to the animals. You’ll also walk away with the inside scoop on the many sneaky labeling practices in use today, and how to avoid being scammed by phony ‘organic’ and ‘grass-fed’ food labels.

If you care about what goes into your body, and the well-being and respect of our land and animals this is an episode you can’t afford to miss. Please take a moment to share this info bomb with someone you love, who also enjoys learning about healthy food.

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

What type of dentistry does your dentist practice? If your answer is "um... tooth dentistry?", you need to listen to this episode. The old 'drill 'em and and bill 'em' paradigm is dead. Since so much of your general physical health starts in your mouth, it's crucial that you find a dentist who uses a holistic approach, and that you educate yourself on the latest developments in the industry. Outdated dentistry can be catastrophic to your health, and a bad dentist isn't going to warn you of that fact. He or she is just going to start drilling... and filling.

But choosing a dentist is not like finding a great auto mechanic. Unlike your vehicle of choice, your teeth are alive. They're not bones or pieces of rock stuck in your jaw. They're an organ and should be treated as such. A qualified biological dentist understands this, and treats your teeth and mouth as a part of your body’s whole energetic system. 

While many of the dangers of outdated dental practices have become more widely known, the vast majority of dentists in the world are still using archaic, and in many cases dangerous methods of treatment.

From mercury-laden fillings to infection-causing root canals, fluoride poisoning, and a host of other harmful procedures, we are just now beginning to emerge from the Flintstonian era of 'mouth medicine,' and enter into a new era of oral care. 

Our guest Dr. David Villarreal is one of the world's leading biological dentists and has a vast body of knowledge to share on the subject. Do your mouth a favor, and take some time to dive into this fact-rich interview with a real innovator.

If you know someone with teeth they care about, please share this show with them.

The topics we discuss:

• What is biological or holistic dentistry
• 
  
• Why is it superior to our current outdated health industry
• 
  
• How health issues in your mouth affect the overall health of the body
• 
  
• Treating your teeth like they are a living organ
• 
  
• Why you should avoid putting toxic fluoride in your mouth, let alone drink it
• 
  
• The dangers of mercury metal fillings and safe removal procedure
• 
  
• Composite fillings and the benefits of using biocompatible material
• 
  
• Why you would want to avoid root canals, and cavitation issue
• 
  
• How to prevent cavities in the first place
• 
  
• How getting teeth pulled can lead to systemic full body infections and autoimmune issues
• 
  
• It goes beyond the mouth: meridians, chi, diet, prayer
• 
  
• The risks involved in using metal transplants and the options
• 
  
• How to find truly organic toothpaste and the benefits of using essential oils orally
• 
  
• Germ killing mouthwash is bad for your mouth
• 
  
• Floss, floss, floss, no way around it

Are you into health and wellness? Have you ever considered the possibility of turning your passion for living a green and organic lifestyle into a brand and business? Our guest Shiva Rose has not only accomplished just that but has done it in a beautifully authentic way.

As a leader and trailblazer in the health and wellness movement, Shiva represents a new breed of influencers. A modern-day renaissance woman. Using her personal health challenges as motivation, she began to explore natural foods, beauty products, and holistic lifestyle practices, until she eventually started to document and share her discoveries on what has become her wildly successful blog The Local Rose. As her following and passion grew, she saw a market gap in the area of beauty and skin. A new breed of Bohemian entrepreneur was born, in the form of her very product line, which bears her name, and her obsession with purity, quality, and style.

In this intimate and thoughtful conversation, we not only learn exactly how and why Shiva turned her love of nature and beauty into her life's mission, but also how she continues to explore and perfect a holistic lifestyle living in the 2nd largest city in the US.

This episode serves as an inspiring ‘how-to’ guide for anyone interested in building a healthy, and immensely fulfilling lifestyle. This podcast is all about styling your life, and Shiva’s done a fantastic job of that herself.

Enjoy, and please take a moment to share this show with someone who is working on perfecting the art of living.

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

Have you ever thought about what it takes to live a high-performance life? When you create that vision in your mind, does it include a lot of potentially negative habits like alcohol consumption? Probably not. But if you're not a legitimate, card-carrying alcoholic, why would you ever consider quitting? And even if you did want to upgrade your productivity and quality of life by giving up booze, how could you? There's that pesky social pressure, and general boredom to contend with after all, right? Well, our guest James has created not only a fool-proof system by which the 'social drinker' can put the plug in the jug, but he's also assembled a sizeable online tribe of like-minded 'quitters' that offer moral support and inspiration to each other through his 30Day No Alcohol Challenge.

When it comes to being a boss, and performing at your highest potential, three things top the list of essential lifestyle habits:

1. Diet

2. Sleep

3. Exercise

Did you know that one of the worst side-effects of regular alcohol consumption is a profound disruption of your healthy sleep cycle? But perhaps you don't drink. Think you're off the hook? Nope. There happens to be another nasty little habit that’s destroying the sleep of humans from all walks of life on a daily basis. It's a poison of sorts, and it's everywhere. It's almost impossible to avoid, and it's getting worse by the day. It's in your home, on the streets, in every store, restaurant, airplane, hospital, and school. This insidious addiction runs rampant, and I promise that if you're reading this, you're a strung-out user. Thankfully, this episode contains the cure. The drug is artificial white (blue) light. We are strung out on using it when the sun goes down. The treatment is preventing this sleep-damaging blue light from making contact with your eyes after dark. One way to avoid this toxic, unnatural light is to go to bed at dusk, and wake up at dawn (see hunter-gatherer humans). My guess is that this doesn't sound too feasible. Ready for option two? I thought so. Thankfully, there is another, more simple way to avoid blue light at night: Wearing blue-blocking orange glasses. The issue with this preventative measure is that 99% of the blue-blocking glasses on the market are positively atrocious, and can't be worn in social situations without inviting a torrent of giggles and annoying questions. Not only does our guest Mr. Swanwick offer some practical insights on the recent phenomenon of blocking blue light, but he also brings what are likely the first decent looking, wearable orange glasses to market.

In addition to covering the two very real issues of habitual alcohol consumption and blue light exposure, James also presents many other valuable insights into not only breaking unfavorable habits but also creating and maintaining positive ones.  

If you want to kick ass, be a boss, and dominate this thing called life, this enlightening episode is for you. It's also for anyone who shares your passion for building the ultimate lifestyle. So share this show with someone you love. Right now.

To your dreams,

Luke

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

How do you think about sleep? Your favorite part of life? A necessary evil? A waste of precious time? Is it easy for you, or do you find it difficult? Or perhaps you haven't thought about it at all? Maybe it’s just an activity that’s part of your everyday routine, and it holds little value or meaning to you. If the latter be the case, keep on reading. As a matter of fact, keep on reading no matter what the case is. Your body, and more importantly your brain, need high-quality sleep to function optimally. 

If you follow medical, or health & wellness trends at all, you might have noticed that the topic of sleep is getting a lot of attention over the past couple years. This is not only by design but also by necessity. We’re quickly learning that as our species is faced with more and more environmental, and social stressors that our need for sleep is becoming increasingly paramount. The quality and quantity of your sleep is perhaps the single most important element of a healthy lifestyle practice, along with diet and exercise.  

In this episode, we look very specifically and thoroughly at every aspect of sleep, and most importantly - how to improve yours! The goal of this show is to change not only the way we sleep but the way we look at sleep. It should be considered a necessary daily practice, if not an art form, or even a beloved hobby. 

This is a fact-filled interview with one of the world’s leading experts on the subject. I strongly recommend that you give this one a listen, or perhaps a couple listens, and incrementally apply each tool to your personal sleep practice. 

Since sleep is something we all need to improve, please take a second to forward this episode to someone you know. Think of how much different the world could be if we weren’t all so terribly sleep deprived.

Thanks for counting sheep with me.

Luke

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

We all want to be loved. I mean at the end of the day, isn’t that the hidden motive behind so many of our decisions and behaviors? When a man posts an image of his Porsche, or Rolex on Facebook, or a woman posts sexy shots of her Chanel handbag and cleavage on Instagram isn’t a desire for love the underlying motive at play? Is not proving one’s social status to the world, after all, just a thinly veiled cry for love? Throughout my life, I have observed that a vast majority of time and energy spent has been in the pursuit of love and approval from others, whether that be directly or indirectly. Perhaps there is even a small part of me sitting here writing this intro that has a desire to appear evolved, or intelligent in order to be well-liked, popular, and ultimately loved. 

So what's wrong with wanting love in our lives? There is of course nothing wrong with wanting it. But what do we do with it once we’ve found it? The problem is that once we figure out how to flirt, date, and make love we often find ourselves in relationship with another human with virtually no clue how to navigate that terrain successfully. Do to negative social programming, and misinformation, most of us spend years of our lives endlessly breaking hearts and having ours broken in return, as a result of a fundamental lack of understanding of what makes the opposite sex tick. 

Despite the politically correct narrative in our current culture, the fact remains that on a biological level, males and females are not the same. We ultimately crave the same love, but we go about getting and giving it in such different ways. 

In this episode, we take a truly intimate look at what men and women want from each other, and how we can learn to give and receive that which is so deeply desired to one another in an honest, and sustainable way. Consider this interview a lesson in myth-busting, and paradigm shifting. Remember to keep an open mind, but more importantly- an open heart.

Please share this with someone you know who desires more fulfilling, loving relationships in their life. Maybe even that someone with whom you’re currently in love. 

Blessings to you and yours,

Luke

Is your brain broken? How would you know if it was, considering you would have to use your broken brain to assess your broken brain? And what do I mean when I say ‘broken’ anyway? By broken, I mean that there may very well be parts of your brain that are inactive or contrarily overactive, that are impairing your ability to handle stress, be creative, sleep, solve problems, and function at your peak potential.

Thanks to a technology called ‘brain mapping’, we can quite literally see how well our brain is functioning. Once issues are identified, neurofeedback training can then be applied to correct it. Neurofeedback gives you the the ability to ‘read’ your brainwaves, in order to accurately assess your brain's health. This amazing treatment is used to treat everything from PTSD to addictions, and has an impressively high success rate.

In this special ‘field recording’ episode, I travel to Peak Brain Institute and interview one of the world's leading experts in Neuroscience, Dr. Andrew Hill. We started the interview by doing a scan of my brain, and during the show our guest shares some pretty disappointing results with me. Thankfully, I also learned that I can probably fix it using a combination of neurofeedback, smart drugs, and proper supplementation.

If you’re interested in hacking your brain to unlock its full badass potential, this show is jam-packed with brain centered, cutting edge tips that will no doubt upgrade not only your brain, but your life.

Please share this episode with a friend. Especially if that friend has a past that includes trauma, PDST, and addictions.

Have you ever tried to make a well-intentioned, commitment to start ‘eating healthy’, yet failed to sustain your new habits because you missed your ‘comfort foods’? Yeah, I get it. I have too. After all, who wants to give up pizza, mac n’ cheese, brownies, ice cream, burritos, and all of the other feel-good foods that remind us of happy times, and give us that primordial pleasure that only ‘bad food’ can give us?

What if there was a way to eat a super clean, totally organic, affordable, sustainable diet that tastes just like the foods we thought we had to give up in order to be healthy? 

Thanks to modern food pioneers like The Jingslingers, it’s becoming increasingly possible to do just that! 

In this episode, we explore the ‘new food’ paradigm and lay out a very practical blueprint for taking control of your eating habits, without giving up the pleasure of eating.

If you want to be healthy, but don't want to give up the 'pleasures of the palette,' this episode is for you, and for everyone you know who still believes health food has to taste like cardboard. Do them a favor and share this with them right now.

Do you love to travel? Of course you do. Who doesn’t right? But can you honestly say you love to fly? Me either. In fact, I can safely say that there is nothing in life that makes me feel worse than air travel. What's the deal? Why does it seem to throw us off so badly? Some call it jet lag. The thing is, it’s more than jet lag. Jet lag just means you cheated some time zones. What I’m talking about is the cumulative effect of taking your fragile little human body and hurling it through space at 550 miles per hour at 35k feet above sea level. To call flying ‘unnatural’ is a gross understatement. It’s likely the single most alien activity of modern human life, and why it’s harmful to us, on so many levels. 

In this hyper-focused episode, we discuss in detail everything about flying that could be damaging to our bodies and explore the various biohacks (natural and otherwise) that might be applied to reduce the adverse effects of air travel. 

My hope is that as we bring more awareness to health issues like this, more innovation will be encouraged, and solutions brought forth that will allow us to continue using such powerful technology, without compromising our own well-being as much in the process.  

Be sure to share this show with anyone you know who loves to travel but hates to fly. 

To your trips, in the air or otherwise.

What does it mean to be a ‘real man’ in 2016? It used to mean you were big, strong, and gave zero fucks about anyone’s feelings, let alone your own. 

Today’s man is quite a bit different. Sure he goes to the gym and lifts heavy stuff. He’s strong. He’s tough. But he also meditates, eats organic food, and is committed to being healthy in mind, body, and spirit. 

Our guest Ryan Munsey is a perfect example of the new paradigm of a modern, masculine man. In this episode, we trace his journey from gym rat to health and fitness expert and industry leader. 

If you’re a man, this episode is a rich source of life hacks and practical recommendations. If you’re a woman, it hopefully serves as an inspiring example of what is possible when a guy commits himself to personal development and balance. 

Do you know someone who needs some coaching to up-level their energy and overall performance? Be a good friend.  Share this episode with them.
