Biohacking, Primal Living, & Emotional Intelligence – Ashleigh VanHouten
“There are no shortcuts on the road to emotional intelligence.” – Ashleigh VanHouten
On today's podcast we discuss what it takes to become an emotionally present human in our fast paced world full of quick-fixes and constant distractions.
There's no shortage of technologies or supplements for improving our mental and physical abilities, but when it comes to increasing our emotional intelligence, a simple hack or quick solution won't do the trick. Developing our emotional fitness takes time, intention, and putting in the deeper work as we face life's challenges.
Join us at Bulletproof's 2017 Biohacking Conference with Ashleigh VanHouten, fitness & nutrition expert, and host of Paleo Magazine Radio, as we discuss the power of getting in touch with our emotions and how we can use the ancestral lifestyle combined with our modern technology to up-level the human experience.
