The Neuroscience of Stress: How To Meditate Like A Monk in Minutes W/ NuCalm Feat. Jim Poole #318

I first got to talk to Jim Poole about NuCalm back in episode 265 , when we chatted all about how stress affects the body, why the stress epidemic is getting worse, and how NuCalm helps combat stress like nothing else I’ve ever used. And I wanted to have Jim back on the show because being a human being in 2020 has been stressful, and we could all use some help calming down and recovering in 2021. So, if you’re struggling to meditate and relax, this is the episode for you. Or if you’re just into tech, because this device is ridiculously cool. NuCalm is the world's first and only patented technology clinically proven to lower stress and improve sleep quality without drugs or side effects. Using biochemistry and physics, NuCalm flips the switch on stress with a safe, easy-to-use, predictable, powerful, and enjoyable experience. The cutting edge neuroscience platform of NuCalm took over 20 years of invention by acclaimed neuroscientist, naturopath, quantum physicist, Dr. Blake Holloway. We get into the mechanism of action that makes NuCalm work and the hard science that backs its efficacy. This has become a vital part of my daily routine, my daily reboot, and I can’t wait for more people to try this now that the business model is even more accessible.

Are you aware of the dangers of EMF exposure in your home, but have no idea where to start when it comes to finding, and fixing them? Are you concerned about your exposure to the current 3G, 4G, and 5G wireless networks now activated in most major cities? Have you attempted to test the levels yourself using EMF meters you found online and ended up confused and frustrated? EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies) are one of the most toxic elements in our living and work environments. Due to the technical nature of accurately testing for them—and the training required to do so properly—many of us resign ourselves to the fact that we just have to accept them and the consequences they bring in order to use the modern technology we depend on. But you don’t have to. In this seven-part video documentary series, you will follow world-renowned building biologist Brian Hoyer as he tests an entire home, room by room, to determine the source and level of every known type of EMF. By the end of this series, you will not only be thoroughly educated on the various types and sources of EMF commonly found in homes but also of the many mitigation tools and techniques available thanks to the cutting-edge technologies.
