Yet research shows Progressive Muscle Relaxation lowers stress, calms anxiety, improves mood, and even deepens the most restorative stages of sleep.In this episode, I break down the evidence — from large systematic reviews to athlete studies — and then guide you through a full Progressive Muscle Relaxation session. You'll finish not just knowing why relaxation matters, but experiencing its benefits in real time.Study 1: Muhammad Khir S, Wan Mohd Yunus WMA, Mahmud N, Wang R, Panatik SA, Mohd Sukor MS, Nordin NA.

Jake and Max Newport, Founders of Finnmark Sauna, welcome Brass Monkey's Founder, Danyl Bosomworth. Brass Monkey is revolutionising the UK Ice Bath and plunge pool market. If you're unaware of them and the fantastic work they do, here's how Danyl found himself in this unique and fast-growing industry: In mid-2020, Dan converted a chest freezer into an ice bath. Was it safe? Not particularly. Did his friends and family think he'd lost it? Yep. Did it help him at a tricky time in his life? Just a bit! He felt like a different person. Back to his old self. More chilled, less stressed, and full of energy. So he got to thinking. How can I help other people feel like this? And is there a better way than selling flipped freezers? Brass Monkey was the answer to both questions.We set ourselves a challenge. To create the finest ice baths in the world. And, with absolutely no false modesty, we succeeded. Our ice baths are the only truly smart ice baths in the world. The only ice baths are fully temperature-controlled and able to make their own ice.Here is a taste of what we covered: Danyl's previous career paths and how he found himself immersed in the Ice Bath benefits.Brass Monkey's first few years of trade, what they've learnt and how they continue to evolve.What makes Brass Monkey the UK's leading Ice Bath and Plunge Pool specialists?Brass Monkey's plans for 2025 and beyond.Who is Brass Monkey Ice Baths? https://www.brassmonkey.co/https://www.instagram.com/brassmonkeyicehttps://www.youtube.com/@brassmonkeyiceIt was fantastic welcoming Danyl to the Finnmark Sauna HQ and showcasing the extensive detail that goes into each aspect of the business.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, my guest is Dr. Craig Heller, PhD, a professor of biology at Stanford University and a world expert on the science of temperature regulation. We discuss how the body and brain regulate temperature in different conditions and why conventional cooling methods, such as placing ice packs on the neck, do not effectively reduce core body temperature. Dr. Heller explains why cooling glabrous skin areas—the palms, soles and upper face—efficiently releases body heat and can significantly enhance physical performance and endurance. We discuss how targeted palmar cooling improves both short-term performance and long-term training adaptation in aerobic and anaerobic exercise. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

Robbie Bent is the co-founder of Othership—a multi-million dollar wellness movement centered around sauna, breathwork, cold plunge, and emotional connection. After a devastating startup failure left him broke and struggling with addiction, what began as backyard ice bath experiments during COVID evolved into one of the most innovative wellness concepts today. In this raw conversation, Robbie shares how his darkest moments led to discovering somatic practices that not only saved his life but inspired a business helping thousands heal together. Robbie and Megan explore why traditional therapy often falls short, how Othership became a "Trojan Horse" for emotional processing, and why the real transformation happens not in the sauna or ice bath—but in the vulnerable sharing that follows. Beyond the emotional insights, Robbie gets tactical about scaling brick-and-mortar businesses, dealing with copycats, founder mode versus delegation, and the profound loneliness of building something meaningful while trying to be a present father and husband. This conversation reveals why the future of wellness isn't about optimizing alone; it's about witnessing each other's humanity—and healing in community. Topics & Takeaways What Othership is and why it's more than sauna and ice baths The emotional regulation crisis and the new wave of wellness How hot/cold contrast therapy is a Trojan horse for emotional healing The science behind breathwork, group sharing, and co-regulation Why Robbie believes emotional health is “where fitness was in 2009” The story behind Othership's founders and their radically intentional space design Building emotional safety in a luxury-meets-humility environment From addiction and startup failure to healing and service How Robbie overcame shame, scarcity, and perfectionism The power of vulnerability and the healing force of group connection What makes Othership polarizing—and why that's the point Cult-like brand love, social wellness, and the death of shame How Robbie manages competition, fear, and founder pressure Why success is about how deeply you impact someone, not how many   The Failure Factor Podcast was brought to you by Off The Field Coaching.

About the Guest(s): Dr. Chad Woolner is a renowned expert in functional medicine, known for his innovative approach to wellness. He has vast experience working with diverse health modalities, integrating traditional and alternative methods to achieve optimal health outcomes for his clients. He co-hosts the "Simplified Functional Medicine Podcast," where he shares insights into various health therapies and wellness practices. Dr. Andrew Wells is a celebrated chiropractor and functional medicine practitioner. He is an advocate for holistic health strategies that blend modern science with traditional wellness practices. As a co-host of the "Simplified Functional Medicine Podcast," Dr. Wells explores significant health trends and therapies that impact overall well-being. Episode Summary: In this intriguing episode of the "Simplified Functional Medicine Podcast," Dr. Chad Woolner and Dr. Andrew Wells address the heated debate surrounding cold immersion therapy, specifically in light of new findings indicating it could reduce muscle gains by as much as 60%. They dissect the study's details, emphasizing that the therapy isn't fundamentally flawed but may be misutilized. Cold immersion, known for its vast health benefits, comes under scrutiny and the hosts provide a balanced perspective on how it fits into a larger regimen of holistic health practices. Throughout the episode, Dr. Woolner and Dr. Wells delve into the nuances of cold immersion therapy, emphasizing the importance of timing and technique to maximize benefits while minimizing any adverse effects on muscle development. They argue that, when used appropriately and safely, cold therapy can enhance mental and emotional health, making it a valuable tool even amidst recent controversies. The episode expands on potential inaccuracies in clickbait headlines and stresses the significance of contextual understanding in practice. Key Takeaways: Cold immersion therapy's benefits are significant but depend on correct usage, particularly timing relative to workouts. Recent studies show that post-workout cold immersion can hinder muscle growth but highlight the importance of inflammation in hypertrophy. Personal experiences and mental challenges in handling cold therapy can be beneficial for mental toughness and productivity. Hormetic stressors, like cold immersion, when used correctly, can enhance overall health and wellness by regulating bodily stress responses. The ongoing clickbait frenzy around health trends necessitates a more informed, careful approach to adopting wellness practices. Notable Quotes: "Cold immersion therapy isn't broken. It's just being misused in some instances." — Dr. Chad Woolner. "You can still keep doing ice baths… nothing changes in terms of the health benefits." — Dr. Chad Woolner. "Sometimes too much of a hormetic stress can be a bad thing." — Dr. Andrew Wells. "You do want and need some inflammation post hypertrophy training." — Dr. Chad Woolner. "It's the difficultness of it… that you can consider mental toughness training." — Dr. Andrew Wells. Resources: Journal of Physiology - The journal where the mentioned study was published. Anna Lembke's Book: "Dopamine Nation" - Referenced by Dr. Chad Woolner for deeper understanding. Ice Barrel: Mentioned by Dr. Andrew Wells as a recommendation for those interested in trying cold immersion therapy. Listeners are invited to experience the full episode for a comprehensive discussion and keep an eye out for future podcasts that unravel popular health trends into actionable insights.

Thanks to voices like Dr. Andrew Huberman and Dr. Stacy Sims, cold plunging has gotten a lot of attention over the last few years - but today I'm bringing you someone who goes even deeper. Dr. Thomas P. Seager is, in my opinion, one of the world's top experts on ice bathing. Not only did he use it to reverse his own chronic health conditions (conditions doctors couldn't explain, let alone treat), but he's also helped countless people use cold therapy to recover from debilitating and even terminal illnesses.In this episode, we explore how cold exposure impacts hormones, fertility, mitochondrial health, and so much more. I also share a bit about my own pregnancy and experience with cold plunging. Topics Discussed:→ Can cold plunge therapy improve hormone balance?→ Does ice bathing help with fertility and testosterone?→ How does cold exposure support mitochondrial health?→ Can chronic illness be reversed with cold therapy?Sponsored By:→ Black Lotus Shilajit | Visit: www.blacklotusshilajit.com and Use Code: SARAHK for 15% the entire site!→ Bon Charge | Click here & use code for SARAHKLEINER for 15% off storewide. → Troscriptions | There's a completely new way to optimize your health.

What if we told you that putting yourself in controlled, uncomfortable situations—like ice baths, fasting, or extreme endurance events—could make you a better runner and a better human? In this episode of Trail Runner Nation, Don and Scott explore the science and strategy of discomfort, challenging the idea that comfort is always the goal. They discuss how modern “comfort culture” may actually be dulling our resilience, while ancient traditions, military training, and endurance sports all use discomfort as a tool for mental and physical growth. Ice baths become a central metaphor for controlled suffering—revealing how pain and discomfort, when approached intentionally, can lead to enhanced focus, discipline, and personal transformation. We break down the difference between pain and discomfort, sharing stories and science that show how embracing the latter can sharpen performance and mindset. We also reflect on how community support can strengthen our ability to endure, and how this mental training often matters just as much as the physical. If you're ready to rethink the role of suffering in your training—and your life—this conversation will help you turn discomfort into your greatest asset.

During this week's Metabolic Classroom lecture, Ben explores the metabolic power of cold therapy, explaining how brief, controlled exposure to cold can significantly enhance metabolic function.He starts with a deep dive into brown adipose tissue (BAT), which is rich in mitochondria and burns calories to generate heat. Cold exposure activates BAT through norepinephrine, leading to mitochondrial uncoupling and energy expenditure without producing ATP. Interestingly, even white fat can be transformed into metabolically active “beige” fat, increasing thermogenesis.Dr. Bikman then moves into how shivering muscle activity contributes to thermogenesis. Unlike BAT, muscle contraction generates heat while performing work. Shivering triggers glucose uptake, improves insulin sensitivity, and releases irisin, a hormone that stimulates thermogenic activity in fat tissue. He also discusses AMPK activation, which plays a key role in facilitating this glucose-burning process.The lecture then highlights a series of hormones influenced by cold, including FGF21 and adiponectin, which boost fat oxidation, enhance insulin sensitivity, and promote mitochondrial biogenesis. Ben reflects on the broader role of the autonomic nervous system, emphasizing how cold therapy improves both sympathetic and parasympathetic function, promoting nervous system flexibility and resilience.Dr. Bikman wraps up by comparing cold exposure methods—from face immersion and cold showers to cryotherapy and full-body ice baths. He strongly endorses full-body cold water immersion as the most effective strategy, especially when shivering occurs post-immersion. His personal recommendation is the Morozko Forge ice bath (he has no vested interest in this company), citing its sustained metabolic impact and practical benefit. He closes by urging viewers to consider cold therapy as a scientifically grounded tool to support overall metabolic health.Show Notes/References:For complete show notes and references, we invite you to become a Ben Bikman Insider subscriber.

In this episode of The Long Game Podcast, Alex Birkett interviews Alice Wyatt, a B2B fintech marketing leader with experience at Codat, Bloomreach, and Adyen. Alice shares how her personal journey of building community and maintaining sanity in a fast-paced city like New York connects with her marketing philosophy: agile, people-first, and impact-driven. The conversation explores person-based marketing (PBM), the limits of MQLs, aligning sales and marketing teams, and embracing adaptability in an AI-disrupted world. Alice also reflects on how her approach to building community mirrors how great marketing is done: with empathy, boldness, and a willingness to challenge the status quo.Key TakeawaysFrom ABM to PBM: Moving beyond account-based strategies to person-based marketing creates deeper personalization and stronger alignment with buying behavior.MQLs Are Outdated: Relying on MQLs limits alignment; marketing and sales need shared, outcome-driven goals instead.Adaptability Over Tactics: Successful marketers focus on business outcomes and adapt tactics as priorities shift—agility trumps specialization.AI Is Redefining Roles: AI is reshaping marketing roles, requiring teams to adopt tools while maintaining strategic thinking and creativity.Community as a Superpower: Whether in marketing or life, building and contributing to genuine communities creates long-term value.Hire for Resilience and Curiosity: Non-traditional backgrounds (e.g., comedy, hospitality) often produce standout BDRs with adaptability and EQ.Thought Leadership ≠ Press Releases: Modern thought leadership means leading with perspective, not parroting trends or relying on legacy PR tactics.Show LinksVisit Alice's Forbes Council for Marketing ExpertsConnect with Alice Wyatt on LinkedInConnect with Alex Birkett on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Omniscient Digital on LinkedIn or TwitterPast guests on The Long Game podcast include: Morgan Brown (Shopify), Ryan Law (Animalz), Dan Shure (Evolving SEO), Kaleigh Moore (freelancer), Eric Siu (Clickflow), Peep Laja (CXL), Chelsea Castle (Chili Piper), Tracey Wallace (Klaviyo), Tim Soulo (Ahrefs), Ryan McReady (Reforge), and many more.Some interviews you might enjoy and learn from:Actionable Tips and Secrets to SEO Strategy with Dan Shure (Evolving SEO)Building Competitive Marketing Content with Sam Chapman (Aprimo)How to Build the Right Data Workflow with Blake Burch (Shipyard)Data-Driven Thought Leadership with Alicia Johnston (Sprout Social)Purpose-Driven Leadership & Building a Content Team with Ty Magnin (UiPath)Also, check out our Kitchen Side series where we take you behind the scenes to see how the sausage is made at our agency:Blue Ocean vs Red Ocean SEOShould You Hire Writers or Subject Matter Experts?How Do Growth and Content Overlap?Connect with Omniscient Digital on social:Twitter: @beomniscientLinkedin: Be OmniscientListen to more episodes of The Long Game podcast here: https://beomniscient.com/podcast/

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I discuss the critical role of temperature regulation in optimizing athletic and physical performance. I explain why overheating can hinder performance and endurance and how techniques like palmar cooling can help extend physical effort by aiding temperature regulation. I also highlight how specific body areas, such as the palms and face, are key targets for regulating temperature, allowing heat to dissipate efficiently. Lastly, I discuss how temperature can support training recovery while cautioning that extreme cold, such as ice baths immediately after training, can block adaptations. Huberman Lab Essentials are short episodes—approximately 30 minutes—focused on essential science and protocol takeaways from past Huberman Lab episodes.

For Ciaran Flanagan, quitting alcohol wasn't about having hit rock bottom — it was about realizing just how much better life could be without it. Like a lot of people growing up in Ireland, drinking was part of the culture he grew up in. He wasn't an alcoholic, but he found himself caught in the same cycle so many people fall into: weekend drinking that derailed his focus, energy, and productivity for days. But after a month without alcohol, everything changed. His brain fog lifted, his sleep scores shot up, and he had more drive than ever before. And once he saw the difference, there was no going back. Flanagan is the founder of Inergize Health, a seven-figure wellness brand that's redefining recovery with portable cold plunge therapy. In this episode, we talk about how dropping alcohol wasn't just a health decision, but a complete shift in how he approached performance, recovery and resilience. That shift led him to cold plunging and breathwork, two powerful tools that helped him replace the false boost of alcohol with mental clarity, emotional stability, and sharper focus.  He shares why he prefers cold plunging after workouts and before bed, the science behind the dopamine and norepinephrine response, and how head-dunking triggers the mammalian dive reflex to boost cognitive function. We also dig into breathwork, including why it's one of the simplest yet most overlooked tools for managing stress and sharpening focus. Like cold exposure, breathwork forces you into presence, training you to handle discomfort instead of running from it. And when you stack these practices, the results are undeniable. If you've ever wondered whether cutting out alcohol is worth it, or if you're looking for practical ways to boost mental and physical resilience, this episode has something for you. Tune in to hear how Ciaran went from feeling “fine” to performing at a whole new level.
