Float, Sleep & Biohack your recovery with Sean McCormick
Today we have wellness entrepreneur, biohacker & host of the Optimal Performance podcast Sean McCormick. We all know that sleep is the #1 tool to help you recover, perform at high levels and rebuild from a hard workout. But, a lot of runners find it hard to sleep, unwind & detach from the stressors of the day.
This is why I have brought on Sean McCormick who is going to introduce ways you can enhance your rest and recovery through methods like float tank sessions, mindfulness strategies & sleep bio-hacking insights. Sean delves into the typical experience of a float session and why you shouldn’t feel intimidated to dip your toes in the water. He explains why its not just for experienced meditation gurus and provides helpful tactics during your first float.
We then finish our conversation with ways you can bio-hack your way to a better sleep including the use of weighted blankets & blue-light blocking sunglasses.
