What if there was a way to help detox your body, boost your mood, burn calories, and get glowing skin in just under 45 minutes a day? The good news is that there is, and my guest today is sharing the secret to elevating your at-home wellness routine.   We’re diving into the world of infrared, PEMF, and red light and discussing the many benefits of infrared saunas. If you’ve been interested in learning more about red light therapy and potentially trying it out for yourself, you’ll want to tune into this episode.   I’m joined by Lauren Berlingeri, one of the founders of HigherDOSE. Lauren is discussing her background and what inspired her to start HigherDOSE, and explaining some of the differences between infrared saunas and traditional heat saunas. She shares everything you need to know about when and how to use an infrared sauna, plus some of the benefits of detoxing daily.   As a female biohacker, Lauren is passionate about inviting more people into the biohacking world and reimagining these tools for all bodies — so you can reconnect with your intuition and elevate to your highest state. She is making it sexy to sweat it out and even hotter to know the science behind what’s happening. She is harnessing the healing power of nature and fitting it into busy, overstressed schedules. And, she is changing the way you think about beauty and wellness by building tools that ignite vitality from the inside out.

This means that the nervous system can immediately relax cortisol levels, and put your body into a parasympathetic state.  The four main happy chemicals are dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, and endorphins, and they are released with the use of infrared saunas. Before using an infrared sauna, it’s important to prepare your body by opening up your detox pathways. This is so that the toxins are released out of your body, instead of recycling them back through.   Find more from Nathalie: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmholC48MqRC50UffIZOMOQ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/biohackingsuperhumanperformance Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nathalieniddam/ Website: NatNiddam.com Join Nat’s Membership Community: https://www.natniddam.com/bsp-community Work with Nat: Book Your 20 MInute Optimization Consult: https://calendly.com/nniddam/intro-call?month=2021-08   Find more from Lauren Berlingeri: Website: https://higherdose.com/ Instagram: @laurenberlingeri, @higherdose Thank you to our sponsors for making this episode possible: HigherDose:  To save 15% sitewide on any of the great HigherDose products just go to bit.ly/HDNAT15 and use code NAT15.
