The Flow State Formula: Neurohacking Mindfulness (Luke Live @ Mercado Sagrado) #266

Mercado Sagrado is one of my favorite events in the world. Every year, people trek to the mountains of Malibu to learn more about a more connected, conscious way of living. I’ve gone the past few years to run the Biohacking Lounge and host a session, and in 2019, I gave a talk titled, “The Flow State Formula: Neurohacking Mindfulness.” In this immersive lecture, I will guide you through a lesson in achieving a rapid elevation of creativity, cosmic consciousness, and flow state brain entrainment. Using modalities ranging from ancient breath work, meditation, and movement practices to the most cutting-edge nootropic, herbal, smart drug, and psychedelic microdosing supplementation, you will learn how to stack the application of the most effective internal transformative tools with the latest external brain training biohacking technologies to radically and permanently upgrade your consciousness and performance. I give a lot of juicy and very specific details in this episode, so I’ve assembled all of these resources in one convenient place for you!
