Science does not support the modern expectations we place on s*x, libido, or s*xuality.
Human s*xual desire evolved as a biological signal of health, energy availability, and reproductive fitness — not as a productivity metric or a performance standard.

Research shows that healthy libido reflects optimal hormonal balance, not frequency of s*xual activity.
Higher testosterone in men is linked with stronger s*xual desire (Travison et al., 2017; PMID: 28324103).
In women, natural rises in estradiol increase desire around ovulation, demonstrating that libido follows hormonal rhythms rather than fixed expectations (Roney & Simmons, 2013; PMID: 23206487).
Stress is one of the strongest inhibitors of arousal; elevated cortisol directly suppresses the neurobiological pathways needed for s*xual response (Hamilton & Meston, 2011; PMID: 20955832).
And s*xual activity itself is one of the most energy-intensive human behaviors, activating cardiovascular, metabolic, and neurological systems simultaneously because reproduction required significant energetic investment (Brody & Krüger, 2006; PMID: 16490016).

The truth is simple:
S*xuality is biologically variable.
Libido reflects hormonal balance and stress, not worth or performance.
S*x is energy-intensive because it evolved as the mechanism of reproduction, not entertainment.
Your fluctuations are human.
The expectations were manufactured.

Science does not support the idea that humans need three meals a day.
For most of human history, people ate according to hunger, daylight, and activity — not a fixed schedule. Across cultures, one to two meals per day was common, and modern research now shows that metabolic health does not depend on eating three times daily.

Reduced meal frequency increases fat oxidation and improves metabolic flexibility, as demonstrated in a controlled crossover study where low-meal-frequency diets enhanced the body’s ability to switch between fuel sources (Stote et al., American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2007; PMID: 17413096).

Skipping breakfast does not slow metabolism. A randomized trial found that breakfast omission had minimal impact on resting metabolic rate and did not impair energy expenditure (Betts et al., American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2019; PMID: 30943168).

Longer fasting windows reduce inflammation and activate longevity-related pathways. Research in humans shows that extended daily fasting periods enhance cellular repair mechanisms and improve cardiometabolic markers (Longo & Mattson, Cell Metabolism, 2014; PMID: 25559344).

Time-restricted eating improves insulin sensitivity and aligns metabolism with circadian biology. Early time-restricted feeding has been shown to lower insulin levels, improve glucose control, and reduce blood pressure in adults with prediabetes (Sutton et al., Cell Metabolism, 2018; PMID: 32706687).

Human physiology is built for alternating phases of eating and not eating. Insulin drops, fat oxidation increases, and cellular repair becomes active during fasting periods — processes that are suppressed when eating is constant.

The “three meals a day” pattern is a cultural construction, not a biological requirement. Meal timing has historically been shaped by work patterns, social norms, and later by food-industry marketing — not by physiology or evidence.

The research is clear: metabolic health does not require three meals a day.
Your body is designed to function, adapt, and thrive across a wide range of eating patterns — not a rigid, modern schedule.

Your first twenty minutes shape the emotional blueprint of your entire day. The question is simple: do you begin in presence, or on autopilot? You don’t need a “miracle morning” — you need twenty minutes without panic. Those first moments act as the opening scene, and the rest of the day follows whatever story you choose to start.

Researchers call this emotional priming: breath, light, movement, and gratitude each activate neural circuits that determine whether you move through the day in defense or in creation. Even two slow breaths through the nose can rebalance your physiology in under ninety seconds.

During this window, your prefrontal cortex — the part of the brain responsible for planning and focus — is hypersensitive. Whatever you feed it becomes the pattern you rehearse. Chaos rehearses chaos; calm rehearses control. This is why rituals anchor you before the noise of the world enters.

Exposure to natural light within ten minutes of waking lowers cortisol spikes by 33%, while screens can trick your optic nerve into jet-lag. Even delaying your phone until after sunrise can improve sleep and reduce anxiety.

Because the brain doesn’t wake up neutral — it wakes up copying. Light, dopamine, cortisol, and your first emotional cues set the tone for up to eight hours. Skip sunlight and your brain assumes you’re still in survival mode. Even a single glance at bad news can shift your entire mood before breakfast.

The first twenty minutes aren’t about motivation — they’re about biology.
Honor them, and the rest of the day rewrites itself.

Early spring is nature’s reset—and it’s the perfect time for your body to do the same. Just like this pup soaking in the fresh air, your cells thrive when given space to cleanse.

Prolonged fasting (24–72 hours) activates deep intracellular detox processes—clearing out damaged components and rebuilding from within. It’s like a metabolic reboot: reduced inflammation, improved energy, and sharper mental clarity.

Let your body rest, repair, and renew—just as the season intends.

The first five numbers are my average blood sugars from the last two months, then tracing back to March when every time I had some carbs, my blood sugar would spike into the 180s and linger there. Now, my morning readings are in the low 70s—right where they should be—and my overall average is 91 mg/dL. Objectively, my brain fog has cleared, and all my inflammation markers are at zero.

This transformation took discipline, perseverance, honesty with myself, a bit of planning, and precise insight.

The aurora borealis occurs when charged particles from the solar wind collide with oxygen and nitrogen molecules in Earth’s atmosphere, creating a glowing spectacle. Similarly, in human cells, energy is produced when oxygen is used in the electron transport chain during cellular respiration, where electrons derived from foodstuffs help generate ATP. Imagine if we could see this glowing process within our bodies—our very own internal aurora!
