Jeff & Schuyler have three beautiful daughters, Phoebe, Lolli, and Micah. They currently live in Los Angeles, California.
Since the Industrial Revolution, society has been increasingly designed for ease and comfort. However, our obsession with convenience has resulted in a very inconvenient truth: We are sick! Chronic ease has led to chronic disease.
The human body evolved across hundreds of thousands of years in relationship with environmental adversity. The right dosage of “paleolithic stress” confers psychological and physiological health. In an era denuded of discomfort, we must now self-impose “good” stress.
In this talk, Jeff melds science with humor as he breaks down the “good stress” protocols that helped him lose 60 pounds and reverse his diabetes. He dives into the benefits and practices of adversity mimetics including fasting, ice plunging, deliberate heat therapy, hypoxia, resistance training, and even “stressful” conversations.
This talk provides an arsenal of actionable tools for people to foster balance and well-being.
Humans have a negative association with stress – and justifiably. Modern stress is chronic. It creates imbalances and leads to disease.
But stress is actually an adaptive feature – not a bug in the system. We simply don’t understand how to manage it.
In this talk, Jeff breaks down the difference between bad stress & good stress. He explains the body’s myriad adaptive responses to stress. And he provides actionable tools and practices to manage stress and emotionally regulate.
This talk is fantastic for teams that work in a “stressful” environment. With the right training, we can make stress our friend. We can grow from it and see the opportunity in it.
In this talk, Jeff bridges mysticism with medicine – elucidating the consilience between Eastern philosophy and Western empiricism. He unveils broad metaphysical truths through an excavation of the physical body.
Jeff describes how the central tenets of Buddhism and Taoism are central to human well-being. He unpacks the concepts of balance, impermanence, and interdependence in a manner that provides people with agency over their health journey.
