🧠 What if recovery wasn’t just about muscles… but your mind?When most people hear “recovery,” they think injury, soreness, or physical healing.But Jake Ross explains that one of the most overlooked forms of recovery is mental recovery. The ability to reset your nervous system, restore focus, and reduce stress on demand.With customizable PEMF frequencies targeting different brainwave ranges, recovery can look like:👉 Energizing your morning for sharper focus 👉 Enhancing meditation for deeper nervous system reset 👉 Supporting mental clarity without stimulantsRecovery isn’t just about fixing what’s broken.It’s about restoring balance before burnout begins.🎧 Tune in to Episode 246 of the High Performance Longevity Podcast with Jake Ross to learn more about:✅ How brainwavefocused PEMF sessions work ✅ Why mental recovery is just as important as physical recovery ✅ Customizing sessions for energy, calm, or focus#mentalrecovery #pemf #nervoussystem #focus #longevity #biohacking #highperformancelongevity #outliyr #healthyline #Pemfmats
Could naturebased principles outperform modern productivity hacks?This episode, Dr. Aldrich Chan connects neuroscience, Daoist wisdom, & bioharmonized living to help high achievers move out of survival mode & into a more grounded, adaptive, & highperforming state.📕  Video chapters 0:00 Introduction 01:17 Identify why modern life creates suffering 05:39 Use naturebased principles to restore function 09:57 Apply creativity & process for adaptive performance 36:14 Strengthen relationship & wholeness 54:27 Maintain equilibrium without rigidity 01:01:06 Activate spontaneity & transformation🔗 Links Full episode show notes: https://outliyr.com/248 Music by Alexander Tomashevsky: soundcloud.com/alexunderthesky📝 Frequently updated articles on Mind and Cognition: https://outliyr.com/topics/mind🎤 Get weekly insider secrets from worldclass experts: https://www.youtube.com/@highperformancelongevity?sub_confirmation=1🔔 Subscribe for more free "biohacking" Human Performance tips, product reviews, and the latest info: https://www.youtube.com/@outliyr?sub_confirmation=1🚀 Tools, products, & services I recommend: https://outliyr.com/shop🔥 Join my VIP club It's a weekly newsletter sharing Human Performance tips, biohacking news, freebies, and more! https://outliyr.com/vip📝 About our guest Dr. Chan is a neuropsychologist, psychotherapist & awardwinning author of Reassembling Models of Reality & 7 Principles of Nature: How We Strayed & How We Return. He is the founder of the Center for Neuropsychology & Consciousness in Miami, with a background in research on Alzheimer’s disease, trauma & the Default Mode Network, plus experience teaching at Pepperdine University. His work integrates neuroscience, psychotherapy, mindfulness, creativity & longstanding study of Daoism & Zen.🔑 Key takeaways Modern suffering stems from separation, alienation, & discord (SAD) as brain networks drive disconnection in today’s world Living by CPR West—Creativity, Process, Relationship, Wholeness, Equilibrium, Spontaneity, & Transformation—provides a blueprint for optimal living Creativity reflects change & adaptation, not artistic talent, with every mind wired for continual reinvention Prioritizing process over perfection invites presence by engaging with life’s constant flow instead of rigid routines or identities Challenges like ADHD reflect evolutionary mismatch or misalignment with natural principles rather than simple disorders to suppress Intuition functions as rapid unconscious processing that guides strong decisions in complex or uncertain situations Human connection synchronizes biology & brain function with people & nature, supporting mental & physical health Growth emerges from accepting all parts of the self, including unwanted traits, & channeling them productively Regulating aspirational, selfish, & survival desires reduces overwhelm by simplifying choices Playfulness, flexibility, & continual adaptation drive true performance, with transformation remaining an ongoing process🙏 Support the show Subscribe: https://outliyr.com/subscribe Leave an Apple Podcast review: https://outliyr.com/ratepodcastDo you have questions, thoughts or feedback?

🔴 What if your recovery routine didn’t require 3 separate devices?Red light therapy has exploded in popularity & for good reason.It supports circulation, mitochondrial function, & tissue recovery. But most people use it in isolation.Jake Ross explains why stacking red light with PEMF + far infrared creates a more powerful environment for recovery & longevity.🎧 Tune in to Episode 246 of the High Performance Longevity Podcast with Jake Ross to learn more about:✅ How PEMF complements photobiomodulation ✅ The role of far infrared in recovery ✅ Why stacking modalities enhances results#redlighttherapy #recoverytools #longevity #biohacking #pemf #infraredtherapy #highperformancelongevity #outliyr #healthyline
🧠 You might be performing at 60–70% and not even know itMost wearables track what already happened: • Steps • Heart rate • Movement • “Neckdown” signalsBut in Episode 244, Dexter Ang explains why true performance starts before all of that… in the brain.Using neural reaction time, his work measures how quickly the brain processes a signal before the body even moves. That single metric has been used for decades to quantify cognitive states across medicine, science, and even aerospace.This approach reveals: ✅ Cognitive readiness ✅ Mental fatigue before burnout hits ✅ Performance capacity across mind, body, and sleepInstead of guessing from trends, it shows what’s actually happening at the source.🎧 Watch the full conversation on the High Performance Longevity Podcast to learn how brainfirst measurement changes performance tracking.#brainperformance #wearables #cognitivereadiness #reactiontime #neurotech #biohacking #longevity #highperformancelongevity #outliyr
🧠 What if your brain isn’t underperforming… you’re just not measuring it correctly?Most people assume their cognition is “fine.”But according to decades of research... including methods developed by NASA, many people operate at 60–70% of their true cognitive capacity without realizing it.Dexter Ang explains how reaction time became the goldstandard way to measure brain performance across aerospace, medicine, & neuroscience & why it reveals far more than IQ or subjective feeling.🎧 Episode 244 of the High Performance Longevity Podcast breaks down:✅ Why reaction time reflects realworld cognition ✅ How NASA standardized cognitive performance testing ✅ What brain optimization actually means (and how it’s measured)#brainperformance #cognition #reactiontime #neuroscience #mentalperformance #longevity #biohacking #highperformancelongevity #outliyr
Think recovery tools only work if you use everything at once? Jake Ross breaks down how combining PEMF, far infrared, red light, & natural gemstones creates consistent gains in energy, nervous system balance, and performance, without complicated routines.📕 Video chapters 0:00 EMFs as an invisible performance stressor in modern environments 4:28 PEMF explained and how controlled frequencies support recovery 10:58 Why recovery habits drive longevity and performance 22:17 Building sustainable recovery routines that actually stick 38:50 Stacking PEMF, infrared, red light, and natural elements 52:42 Longterm recovery mindset and avoiding quickfix thinking🔗 Links Full episode show notes: https://outliyr.com/246 Music by Alexander Tomashevsky: soundcloud.com/alexunderthesky📝 Frequently updated article on PEMF, benefits & mats etc: https://outliyr.com/pemfbenefits https://outliyr.com/whatispemftherapy https://outliyr.com/bestpemfmatsreview🛒 Click the link below and use code OUTLIYR10 to save 10%: https://outliyr.com/healthyline🎤 Get weekly insider secrets from worldclass experts: https://www.youtube.com/@highperformancelongevity?sub_confirmation=1🔔 Subscribe for more free "biohacking" Human Performance tips, product reviews, and the latest info: https://www.youtube.com/@outliyr?sub_confirmation=1🚀 Tools, products, & services I recommend: https://outliyr.com/shop🔥 Join my VIP club It's a weekly newsletter sharing Human Performance tips, biohacking news, freebies, and more! https://outliyr.com/vip📝 About our guest Jake Ross is part of the leadership and growth marketing team at HealthyLine, where he helps translate advanced recovery technologies into realworld routines for athletes and healthfocused individuals.

If you’re going to use adaptogens, start simple, track your response, and give your body about two weeks to respond before changing anything. #adaptogens #supplementsafety #healthtips
Some adaptogens boost energy and endurance, others improve mood, sleep, recovery, and even support longevity and antiaging. #adaptogens #performance #longevity
Adaptogens help balance hormones, boost energy without the crash, and make the body more resilient to stress by regulating cortisol and the HPA axis. #adaptogens #stressrelief #healthtips
These are the most popular adaptogens everyone talks about, but each one works on the body in a completely different way.#adaptogens #supplements #wellness
Adaptogens only qualify if they meet these 3 rules. Most supplements don’t, so here’s the smart way to spot the real ones.#adaptogens #wellness #healthtips
One night of drinking tanked my performance for days so I started searching for cleaner alternatives that mimic alcohol’s effects without wrecking my biomarkers. Here’s what actually worked. #alcoholalternative #biohacking #healthtips
Magnolia bark contains a compound called DHHB a natural ingredient shown to relax you like strong calming drugs but without the addiction or impairment. A cleaner way to unwind.#biohacking #alcohol #stressrelief
Alcohol impacts far more than just your liver. From your microbiome to your sleep, performance, and immunity this clip breaks down the real effects you never hear about.#alcohol #healthtips #biohacking
Everyone’s chasing longevity. Tracking sleep, fasting, cold plunges, supplements. But here’s the truth: most of what’s sold as “sciencebacked” longevity is just biohacker theater. It looks impressive, but doesn’t move the needle longterm. #longevity #biohacking #wellness
