I had a chance to sit down and chat with friend (and fellow self-experimenter) Boomer Anderson on his Decoding Superhuman podcast, where we cover a wide range of biohacking and QS topics, from tracking and optimizing our sleep and our indoor environments to heart rate variability and more. Give a listen and subscribe to his awesome podcast here or listen below:

Some of the biohacking and Quantified Self topics we cover in this episode of the Decoding Superhuman podcast:

  • How did I initially get into Quantified Self?
  • Where do I get inspiration for these experiments?
  • How to begin performing self-experiments
  • What data do I recommend gathering for someone performing their first self-experiments?
  • The best apps and devices for tracking HRV, improving water quality, tracking sleep, and much more
  • Top tips for optimizing your sleep environment
  • How mouth taping may help you sleep better
  • Why is it important to filter your shower water
