 here we are guys day two of the depression reboot challenge first of all just want to thank you for the support uh from video one in the comments that you left i do really do appreciate that and a couple of things that you want to mention from the comments over there talking about different modalities to use listen at the end of the day there's a million modalities out there it's up to you to figure out what works for you you know and there's different forms of depression this isn't for me like a depression of like biology or something like that you know like people ask me like what do i eat you know what do i you know what kind what's my regiment for the most part i'm pretty blessed to have a pretty good regiment you know my wife's an atropath doctor i've been in health space for a while you know i get my i get my markers checked every three months to four months so for the most part it's not a dietary thing you know it's more of a for me like emotional cyclical thing has probably something to do with the season's changing as well i do get sad so seasonal affections disorder that's why i use a lot of the biohacking devices or light therapy of course the best therapies get the fuck out of winter and go somewhere down south it's not an option right now in my life currently um but yeah man like listen it's up to you to figure out what works for you you know and obviously you want to start at ground zero if you're suffering some form of depression you know if you haven't checked out how your diet is diet does play a role you know if your diet's not good it does affect how you think it does affect everything in your body so i'm a firm believer in subtract subtracting as opposed to adding and so looking at your life and subtracting everything until you're at nil and then slowly introducing stuff and seeing how you respond to that remember there's no panacea there's no black and white everybody's different everybody's unique everybody has unique context where they are in their life what position they're in life what's going on in their life matters for everything um so subtract as opposed to add and then you work off of that right you build off of that so you know you take away all the bad diet that you're eating most of the eat like standard american diets add and then you start adding certain stuff or you start playing around with different diets i just don't care what you eat tell you the truth all these people be unikido this is an irrelevant question in my mind tell you the truth what matters the most is finding something that works for you but the key is it has to be sustainable like if it's not on autopilot it's not going to work remember i've made videos in the past i personally don't believe in people are pre-programmed to behave a certain way and so just like softwares and substrates of software it's a hardware it's going to behave a certain way softwares not all of a sudden would behave exponentially different because it's in a substrate they can only behave a certain way within this hardware and so the human body is the same thing and uh that's what my firm believer you got a controlling environment man you have to have to control your environment so fucking important this is part of my 30 day reboot you know since you know i am affected by sad this is for me more of a kind of like i guess you can call emotional spiritual depression it's not a biological one and just getting out of nature some form of nature grounding connecting doing some joint mobility just finished watching the sunrise over here you know nice half an hour 45 minute sunrise and get the blood flowing and you know but uh yeah just want to kind of give you guys that message at the beginning and uh today chose a different park over here and uh i'm gonna do a bunch of calisthenics today so we're gonna do a bunch of push-ups and maybe some shadow boxing and uh might finish off with some planks depending if the ground is wet or not and uh here we go this is just simple push-ups i'm doing 20 reps for 10 sets get the blood flowing they're not hard it's nice so that's round one i've got nine more to go and as i mentioned before guys you gotta figure out what makes your software work the best you know depending on your situation in life maybe you're a busy parent you can't really wake up without disturbing the kids all right figure out something that you can do you know i think a lot of people try to paint with this depression or anxiety or any you know symptoms they try to paint it in a box you can't define it by a box there are common patterns yes but everyone's different everyone's unique everyone has different software everyone has a different environment you live in and so just like any good scientist if you have different software different environment your approach is different completely different so you have to experiment and figure out what works for you you know all these gurus out there talking about different things it's all bullshit man listen there's science yes 100% man i'm a science geek i love fucking science but there's science theoretical i want to say theoretical there's science for let's say research there's clinical practice there's anecdotal they all come together they overlap just like anything in life and you can listen to people saying even even for example this you know this is what works for me i've experimented with everything especially for this form kind of like the pressure and malaise i should say this is what works for me after trying many many different things so it's up to you to figure out what works for you it might be like i said fixing your diet might be doing biohacking stuff you know if you're up here in canada i would recommend getting your fucking but in d levels checked omega levels checked look for information you know work with a good nd a naturopathic doctor a functional medicine doctor and then figure out you know create a sustainable dietary lifestyle dietary exercise spirituality etc you know there's a trifecta you know you can't have one with the other so just diet alone diet alone is gonna fix your shit it's crazy everything has been ordered but it's about experimenting not taking everything for granted as in like x always equals x it's not the case there's a different shades of x different spectrums of x and so here we go we do some next exercises all right the themes are push-ups today so i'm going to do now a decline inverted push-ups off that park bench over there but it's a simple nice rest period between 45 seconds you would take you know these aren't crazy workouts this is just getting your blood flowing getting some basil dilation going but also more or less connecting you know i'm wearing these but there's no music it's just noise cancellation it's kind of more meditative for me out hearing all the noise around me but uh yeah here we go i'm gonna do uh one more set for this and i'm not gonna show you guys all the time it's boring it's about one more and then we're off to the next thing you guys gotta see this walk in the next location well one second see that sun's coming up this is what i'm talking about reset man this is what does it for me every morning seeing the sunrise like this it's fucking magical well guys that's it for today nice 45 minute session in the morning stay two like i said i want you guys to hold me accountable you know we got like another 28 days to go but so far so good you know just staring at the sun over here wow man it's breathtaking through the clouds over here well listen man like i said the reason i'm doing this video is we're all going through stuff and i just want to share with you what works for me this is like a not a new pattern for me i've had it before cyclical comes and goes maybe like on a yearly or two-year cadence it's not like it's like every couple of months it's a rarity but it does happen there's a there's a history of that with me and so yeah hopefully this helps man and listen any you guys if you guys need any help with anything doesn't matter what it is man reach out man more than happy to help you guys and i'll see you guys tomorrow take care
