In this episode of CASAT Conversations, we are honored to welcome Dr. Steven C. Hayes, a pioneering clinical psychologist and the originator of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). With decades of groundbreaking work that has transformed the field of psychotherapy, Dr. Hayes brings a deep understanding of how we build resilience, move through suffering, and live with purpose.Drawing from tribal traditions, spiritual wisdom, and cutting-edge behavioral science, Dr. Hayes shares how ACT helps people willingly take on their own history, turn toward their pain, and connect with what matters most. He reflects on pivotal moments in his career—including his TEDx Talk, Turning Pain into Purpose—and emphasizes the importance of developing mental flexibility in a post-COVID world where "5 out of 5 of us" need resilience.Dr. Hayes also critiques the systemic challenges facing the mental health field today, including the limitations of the DSM, the influence of pharmaceutical companies, and the reduction of individuals to data points in normative science. With humility and fierce compassion, he calls for a culture shift in psychotherapy—one where practitioners are empowered to trust their intuition, meet clients with curiosity, and reject categorical thinking in favor of wholeness and integration.In this episode, Dr. Hayes discusses:The role of acceptance in healing and transformationACT's connection to tribal traditions and human resilienceHow personal pain can become a path to purposeHis critique of the current mental health system and the DSMThe power of integrating all parts of ourselvesA vision for bottom-up change in psychotherapy through practitioner wisdomJoin us for a compelling and candid conversation about how we can reimagine mental health care—from the inside out—and reconnect with the core of what makes us human.Key words: acceptance and commitment therapy, ACT therapy, resilience, mental health, healing, wisdomResources: TEDTalk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o79_gmO5ppgInstitute for Better health: https://www.ibh.com/Books by Steven C.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Twitter: @parsoverbogeys Key Takeaways: Tournament Golf Exposes the Truth: The added pressure, emotion, and unpredictability of match play reveal where your mindset and game are truly at—and where they need to grow. Stay in the Fight—Always: Even after a bad shot or penalty, you're only one great swing away from turning the hole around. Never mentally check out. Control What You Can Control: You can't police every rule or correct every shady scorecard. What you can control is your attitude, effort, and energy. Your Emotional State Is Contagious: Whether it's your playing partner melting down or opponents bickering, you must protect your energy and stay anchored in your process. Audit Your Self-Talk and Body Language: The way you speak to yourself after a mistake either drains or fuels your next shot. Choose awareness over autopilot. Routine Is Your Reset Button: A consistent pre-shot routine was the anchor during high-pressure moments. When things go sideways, your routine keeps you grounded. Key Quotes: “You are not judge, jury, and executioner out there. Control your ball—and your response.” “Even when I hit a ball OB, I stayed in the fight. I didn't skip my routine. I didn't give up.” “Every missed shot is just an invitation to execute the next one better.” “Tournament golf just hits different—and I fucking loved it.” “You can't afford to leak energy worrying about things beyond your control.” “Pat's opponent lived rent-free in his head—and it cost him the round. Don't give away your power.” “I may not have played my best golf, but mentally, I showed up like a pro. And that's the foundation of what's coming next.” Time Stamps: 00:00: Introduction to Member Member Weekend 05:03: First Impressions and Initial Experiences 10:58: Learning the Rules of Match Play 15:01: Mental Resilience and Self-Talk 20:34: Tournament Golf: The Thrill of Competition 24:47: Navigating the Course Challenges 27:28: Lessons from Competitive Play 29:45: Staying Committed to the Process 32:14: Managing Emotions and Energy on the Course 35:49: The Importance of Team Dynamics 38:18: Reclaiming Your Power 40:05: Identifying Areas for Improvement 44:54: Reflecting on the Experience

This week's show brought to you by: Qualia Senolytic As a masters runner, I am always on the lookout to prevent (or at least slow down) many of the common performance declines that happen with age. Qualia Senolytic is designed to selectively target and eliminate damaged or dysfunctional cells in the body, which are called senescent cells. By removing these cells, senolytics aim to rejuvenate tissues, reduce inflammation, and reverse some aspects of aging. Early research has shown senolytics can… Lead to a reduction in systemic inflammation Improve vascular function by reducing senescent cell burden in the arteries.

MAS Iron Outside of training deficiencies, low iron is one of the most common reasons for poor results during workouts and races. Recent research indicates that almost 56% of male runners and 86% of female runners suffer from an iron deficiency that severely hampers performance. The problem with eating iron-rich foods or supplementing with traditional iron supplements is that iron is notoriously difficult for the body to absorb and utilize. In fact, only about 25% of dietary iron found in animal sources is absorbed while 17% or less of the iron from plant sources is absorbed. But MAS Iron has found a way to combat these absorption issues to ensure you can get the iron you need for health and performance. By combining the most efficiently absorbed form of elemental iron with clinically proven ingredients to aid in absorption, MAS Iron performs like no other iron product on the market. In fact, clinical research has shown the combination of ingredients in MAS Iron can quadruple absorption and increase bioavailability by 30%, all while reducing GI issues by 50%.

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.

Robert Hamilton Owens is a man of many hats. He's been and done a lot – mountain climbing, radio and TV personality, keynote speaker, minister, Ironman, philanthropist, triathlete, Special Ops Pararescueman, and father of five – to name a few. But for Robert, none of this is done for self-aggrandizement. While he loves the challenge, he derives his greatest pleasure from helping others – motivating, educating, and inspiring them. He does it for one, such as helping a ready-to-quit Ironman competitor and cancer survivor to continue and finish the race, and he does it for many. Robert's Website: Robert Hamilton Owens

Surviving a lawsuit, scaling a franchise, and losing 125 pounds all pointed Bennett Maxwell toward one surprising realization: his nervous system had more influence than he ever imagined. Bennett joins Alex Raymond to talk through the chaos and clarity that came with building Dirty Dough. When Crumble, a billion-dollar competitor, sued him over sprinkles and box shapes, he could have folded. Instead, he went bold. His response—cheeky billboards and viral content—caught fire and helped fuel the sale of 450 franchises in just two years. But what happens after the adrenaline fades? What if growth brings a whole new kind of pressure? Bennett shares how success forced him to confront his health, his identity, and his relationship to stress. He talks about selling his first company, hitting his financial goal, and realizing he still felt miserable. That moment led to a full-body reset from gastric sleeve surgery to daily meditation to red-light therapy and vagus nerve stimulation. He even carved out half his workweek to focus on his mental and physical state. This episode raises a bigger question: can you really lead well if your nervous system is fried? Bennett's story is a reminder that personal growth and business growth aren't separate, and that sometimes the most strategic move is stepping back.

What do vibrations and the psychedelic experience have in common? MDMA therapy is revolutionizing mental health treatment, helping people overcome PTSD, anxiety, and emotional trauma with unprecedented success. But what if you could tap into those same powerful benefits—without taking a single drug? It turns out your brain responds to more than just chemistry. Vibration, frequency, and rhythm have been shaping human consciousness for millennia—from ancient chanting rituals to modern neuroscience breakthroughs. Could the right vibrations unlock the same neuroplasticity and healing pathways as psychedelics? In this episode, Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Dave Rabin, a neuroscientist, psychiatrist, and psychedelic researcher, to explore how vibrations can rewire your brain, enhance neuroplasticity, and even mimic the effects of MDMA therapy. Dr. Rabin's work led to the creation of Apollo Neuro, a wearable device that taps into your nervous system's natural ability to regulate stress, boost focus, and accelerate recovery—without pharmaceuticals. What You'll Discover in This Episode: • How specific vibrations trigger deep relaxation and neuroplasticity • Why MDMA therapy works—and how vibration-based tech can simulate it • The surprising science behind music, frequency, and altered states • How Apollo Neuro enhances sleep, focus, and emotional resilience • The overlooked role of heart rate variability in longevity and health • Why stress is the biggest obstacle to healing—and how to override it **Apollo Neuro | To get an Apollo wearable, go to https://apolloneuro.com/Dave and save 15%** Resources: • Dave Asprey's New Book - Heavily Meditated: https://daveasprey.com/heavily-meditated/ • Apollo Neuro Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/apolloneuro/?hl=en • Apollo Neuro Website: https://apolloneuro.com/Dave • Danger Coffee: https://dangercoffee.com • Dave Asprey's Website: https://daveasprey.com • Dave Asprey's Linktree: https://linktr.ee/daveasprey • Upgrade Collective – Join The Human Upgrade Podcast Live: https://www.ourupgradecollective.com • Own an Upgrade Labs: https://ownanupgradelabs.com • Upgrade Labs: https://upgradelabs.com • 40 Years of Zen – Neurofeedback Training for Advanced Cognitive Enhancement: https://40yearsofzen.com Timestamps: 00:00 Trailer 00:40 Intro 01:18 Exploring Vibration in Biohacking 02:29 Introduction of Dr. Dave Rabin 02:53 Understanding Vibration and Its Impact 04:47 The Apollo Neuro Device 08:44 Using Apollo for Different States 11:41 Apollo in Psychedelic Therapy 24:32 Clinical Trials and Studies on Apollo 29:32 Heart Rate Variability and Biohacking 33:02 Revolutionizing Sleep with Apollo 34:40 Apollo's Long-Term Effects and Dependency 37:16 Apollo's Impact on ADHD and Psychiatric Disorders 45:22 The Importance of Human Connection and Simple Solutions 49:56 Longevity, Healthspan, and Future Innovations 57:23 Final Thoughts and Discount Offer See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

SlumberCBN There's no denying that sleep is one of the most powerful factors to upgrading your overall health and running performance. We all know it by now, but sometimes no matter how well-intentioned we are; getting good, quality sleep doesn't come easy. Sometimes you can't get your mind to relax, other times you toss and turn all night. One way or another, it all leads to poor quality sleep. That's why we've partnered with Slumber, the leader in science-backed sleep supplements using CBN. CBN is a hemp-derived melatonin alternative which promotes rest, relaxation, and sleep. And it works. In a recent 2024 study, participants who used Slumbers Deep Zzzs CBN Gummies for 30 days reported significant improvements in time to sleep, got 72 minutes of extra deep, and reported waking up 1.5 less times per night on average. What I love most is that you can mix and match different formulations to specifically address your goals or your own struggles with sleep.
