## Resource

Full show notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/holyhealth In this episode with Justin Roethlingshoefer, you'll hear from a former NHL performance coach turned health entrepreneur whose new book, Holy Health , is the one I chose for my father-son book club this month. This is not another eat-honey-and-drink-milk Bible health book. Justin is a genuine biohacker who works with pro athletes worldwide, and he has woven deep spiritual and physiological science into the same framework. You'll learn why the modern obsession with optimization can quietly become idolatry, how the drive to control your metrics keeps your nervous system stuck in fight-or-flight and lowers your HRV, and the five "hearts" that trap high performers in striving. You'll also get the practical side: his full morning and evening rhythms, why he starts his day at 6 p.m. rather than at sunrise, the breathwork he does midday in the grass, his exact zone two and zone five weekly targets, and how he folds three and a half hours of zone two into family walks with a weighted vest. It's a conversation about doing less frantic optimizing and more intentional stewardship, and it may reframe how you think about every biohack you own.
