jeudi 3 septembre 2026 • Durée 38:47

Today’s guest is Davy Pulkerman, founder of Zippit.

After developing Long COVID symptoms, Davy became obsessed with improving his breathing, sleep and energy, eventually creating his own mouth tape and nasal strips. Today, Zippit has more than 100,000 customers.

Amazingly, after more than five years of this podcast, this is the first time I’ve sat down with someone who actually makes mouth tape and nasal strips! We get into nasal vs mouth breathing, sleep and snoring, who should and shouldn’t use mouth tape, nasal strips for exercise, and some of the simple things you can do to make breathing through your nose easier.

#133 Meditation Expert: Why Your Mind Won't Shut Up | Ariel Garten, Muse Co Founder

vendredi 17 juillet 2026 • Durée 45:44

In today's episode, we welcome back Ariel Garten, co-founder of Muse. Ariel is a neuroscientist and former psychotherapist whose brain-sensing technology is used by NASA, the Mayo Clinic, and hundreds of thousands of everyday meditators worldwide.

In this conversation, we discuss why meditation feels so hard to stick with, what's actually happening in your brain during those first few weeks of practice, and how to teach even young kids to self-regulate with their breath. We also get into why silence can feel so uncomfortable, whether you can trust your own thoughts, and Ariel's take on using meditation to sit with physical pain rather than fight it.
