Could Kindness Be The Ultimate Biohack? A Conversation With Dr. David Hamilton 2j371n

Once upon a time I was a biohacker. I measured my biomarkers every quarter, performed targeted nutrition protocols, tracked my HRV, sauna’d, plunged, and even sunned my balls in front of red light each morning to increase my testosterone. I guess I experienced some benefit from all these activities, but it all kind of became less interesting once I began understanding and focusing on my consciousness. I started to realize and experience first hand that the information in my consciousness is what created and drove the functioning of the body.  It’s not to say that the physical stuff wasn’t important, but it just felt less primary relative to the ways in which my emotions, beliefs, consciousness patterns, and the concepts I held around the way the body worked impacted my experience. The truth is both inputs matter.  It just feels like we live in a society that puts far more emphasis on the nutrition we feed ourselves a few times a day, relative to the information we’re constantly feeding ourselves.  Today’s guest David Hamilton is someone that hopes to change that.  David was once a biologist developing drugs in the pharmaceutical industry. He became fascinated by the placebo effect and the mind’s power to influence the body. Eventually, his conviction and interest in the mind-body connection became so strong that he decided needed to leave the pharma industry.
