About this listen
Do you ever feel like your brain is running on dial-up in a fiber-optic world?
In his 20s, Dave Asprey did too. He battled debilitating brain fog and chronic fatigue syndrome, frustrated by his broken brain. Determined to upgrade his “MeatOS,” fix his brain, and biohack his biology to live past the age of 180, Dave embarked on a lifelong quest to push the boundaries of human potential, including running a neuroscience center for entrepreneurs for over a decade. Now, he's sharing his mind-blowing secrets in Heavily Meditated, blending cutting-edge science, a sprinkle of woo, and ancient wisdom from around the globe.
This book is your ticket to unlocking altered states of consciousness and tapping into unlimited energy, happiness, and inner peace. Dive into breathwork, harness sexual energy, safely induce pain, explore psychedelics, and geek out with EEG and neurofeedback. Discover the magic of the Reset Process, the core program from Dave's renowned neurofeedback center, to remove the triggers stealing your power. These methods are your toolkit to enhance cognitive performance, biohack your MeatOS, boost productivity, and unlock your hidden potential.

The book also morphed from what was marketed as a general exegesis on biohacking and meditation, to some kind of radically over-extended soliloquy on Dave's own neurodivergence - once again with the oddly presumptive tone (use of "we" and "you") to somehow categorise all his readers as equally 'aspie'. I am not suggesting neurodivergence should be maligned, or that there is no relevance to it here at all. I myself have experienced clinical mental health issues in the past, but I'm not (and never have been) on the spectrum. So even though some personal anecdotes from the author regarding his mental health journey would have been welcome and relevant, it seemed odd to me that Dave was spending entire chapters talking about very specific issues of mental health that apply to him, as if they apply (and would be equally interesting and relevant) to all of humanity. It seemed to me...kind of solipsistic and self-centred. Didn't enjoy that.
The most interesting part in my opinion was learning about the different brain waves and their associated states. But I could have got that from a Google search, and not had to suffer through all the unnecessary blah-blah.
It just felt like a bait and switch. If he wanted to write a book about neurodivergence, ok fine. But don't market this as a meditation book.
Disappointing
