Dr. Mark Atkinson wants you to acknowledge that life has gifted you with a body and mind for the duration of your time here on this rock hurtling through space.

And how do you honor and show gratitude for a gift that you appreciate?

You take care of it!

A lot of the growing biohacking and self-development communities tend to focus on taking care of the physical body, but that’s just our vehicle through the human experience — it’s critically important that we also take care of our mental, emotional, and spiritual health.

That’s why Dr. Atkinson, founder of the Human Potential Institute, travels around the world teaching the world’s top performers how to manage and optimize their mind, wellbeing, and effectiveness through psychological fitness training.

Today, Dr. Atkinson will teach you how to start a psychological fitness practice, working with your body and mind in a way that allows you to serve life and for life to creatively move through your cells. It all starts by tuning up your body-mind vehicle, but real progress and development only comes when you delve into the psychological, the spiritual, or what Dr. Atkinson simply calls life.

Topics Discussed In This Episode:

• Psychological fitness is a way of being in the world in which you’re present, open, aware, engaging in reality, and doing what matters
• Why CEOs, executives, and elite athletes turn to Dr. Atkinson to learn what he knows about psychological fitness training and personal development
• Curiosity may not be great for cats, but it’s a transformative perspective for human beings to use when approaching life
• A plant medicine experience that changed the course of Dr. Atkinson’s life
• Spirituality likes to vilify the ego, but Dr. Atkinson teaches us why we actually need to work with it to achieve greater awareness and presence
• You have thoughts — but that’s not who you are
• How you can get everything you need to overcome life’s challenges, no hacks required
• The critical difference between spiritual transcendence and spiritual bypassing
• Learning to change the channel of your awareness
• Evolving from Victim Consciousness to Victor Consciousness
• Is there a way to prevent the deep suffering caused by childhood trauma?
• What happens when we refuse to turn towards the what we are experiencing and engage life
• The trap of getting stuck focusing solely on physical health
• The purpose of community
• How we’re losing our children and societal structure
• A roadmap towards realizing your potential
• When you’re doing anything, ask yourself: am I doing this consciously or compulsively?

THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:

ORGANIFI. I'm loving Organifi Gold, especially for my night time routine. It has turmeric, ginger, reishi, lemon balm, turkey tail and other rad superfoods, phytonutrients & pain-soothing herbs. My daily routine lately goes like this: in the morning, I add it to my nut milk smoothie. At night when I want to chill out, I make a golden latte. I add the power and a healthy fat like ghee, coconut, or grass-fed butter to hot water and voilá! Great warm elixir, really chills you out, gently detoxifies and tastes awesome. Save 20% using code “LIFESTYLIST” at organifi.com/luke.

JOOVV. If you’ve been listening for a while or following Luke on social media, you’ve probably seen him raving about red light therapy, or photobiomodulation. There are over 3000 published clinical papers on light therapy – over 200 being double-blind, randomized, and placebo-controlled – making this arguably the most well-researched bio hack in Luke’s arsenal. Some of the benefits include increased skin health, better muscle recovery, better sexual performance, and reduced joint pain and inflammation. So you can see why Luke is so into it... and why all of his friends keep coming over to use his Joovv device!

BLUBLOX. Studies have clearly shown that blue and green light up to 550nm is a potent suppressor of melatonin, but the Sleep+ lenses in BLUblox glasses are the most effective blue and green light blockers for after dark use, proven to block 100% of the light in this range. BLUblox offers free global shipping everywhere, and they do prescription glasses, reading glasses, and non-prescription glasses for a tremendous value.
