The Biohacking Standards

What if ancient myths are not simply stories, but encrypted records of forgotten history? And what if the technologies reshaping modern life are not separate from us, but extensions of human consciousness?In this episode of The Biohacking Standards, filmmaker, podcast host and former professional musician Ben Stewart joins Ashley Grace for a thought-provoking conversation about consciousness, creativity, mythology, hidden history, technology and human evolution.Ben has built his career exploring ideas that challenge conventional narratives and encourage people to think for themselves. Rather than creating films that tell audiences what to believe, he uses storytelling, imagery, music and emotion to open new possibilities. His goal is not to replace one accepted narrative with another. It is to inspire curiosity about who we are, where we came from and what we may be capable of becoming.One of the episode’s most fascinating ideas is Ben’s view that mythology may serve as a form of encrypted history. Stories carried across generations may contain memories of real people, events and civilizations—even if those memories were gradually transformed into symbols. Ben discusses lesser-known historical accounts, including reports of mummified remains found in Kentucky, and asks whether parts of humanity’s past have been forgotten, misunderstood or excluded from the history most of us were taught.The conversation also turns toward technology and its powerful effect on human behavior. We often think of technology as something external: a tool we create and control. Ben offers a different perspective. Smartphones, social platforms, artificial intelligence and other technologies can be seen as extensions of human thought, memory, communication and creativity.But the relationship works both ways. We shape our technology, and our technology shapes us.It influences what captures our attention, how we communicate, what we value and even how we perceive reality. If technology amplifies human consciousness, what happens when it is driven by fear, distraction or unconscious behavior? Could greater self-awareness allow us to use these tools in ways that support creativity, connection and human development?Ben also shares the personal side of his creative journey. As a father of four, he is constantly balancing filmmaking and podcasting with the responsibilities of family life. Rather than seeing parenthood as an obstacle to meaningful work, he explains how raising children has deepened his thinking about culture, responsibility and the future we are creating.His earlier career as a professional musician continues to shape the way he approaches filmmaking. Ben understands that information alone rarely changes people. Art can reach places that facts and arguments cannot, engaging emotion, imagination and intuition alongside the intellect. A powerful film does more than communicate an idea—it creates an experience.In this episode, you will discover:Why ancient myths may preserve fragments of real human historyHow mythology can reveal cultural truths hidden beneath symbolismWhy consciousness may be the next frontier of human evolutionHow technology changes our attention, behavior and relationshipsWhat artificial intelligence may reveal about the human mindHow music shaped Ben’s distinctive approach to documentary filmmakingWhy emotion and storytelling can transform beliefs more effectively than facts aloneHow Ben balances creative ambition with being a present fatherWhy questioning accepted narratives is essential to independent thoughtThis is more than a conversation about filmmaking, mythology or emerging technology. It is an invitation to examine the stories guiding your life, the tools influencing your behavior and the future you are helping to create.Listen now for a compelling exploration of consciousness, ancient wisdom, hidden history, creativity, technology and the evolving potential of the human mind.

Dave Asprey has spent more than two decades changing how millions of people think about biohacking, longevity, cognitive performance, sleep, nutrition, and human optimization. But in this conversation, the father of biohacking goes somewhere much deeper. What if the ultimate biohack isn’t physical at all?Dave believes biohacking is evolving beyond simply optimizing the body. The next frontier may be learning to control your state, consciousness, intuition, emotional responses, and awareness—and understanding how those forces shape the way we experience reality.In this wide-ranging conversation, Dave opens up about a side of his journey that gets far less attention: spirituality and consciousness.Earlier in his life, Dave says he would have dismissed many spiritual practices as nonsense. His worldview was rooted in science, measurement, and evidence. But experiences with meditation, breathwork, trauma resolution, altered states, and consciousness exploration gradually forced him to reconsider what science can—and cannot yet—explain.That journey changed his definition of biohacking.Rather than simply changing your environment to control your biology, Dave increasingly thinks about biohacking as gaining greater control over your state. Because ultimately, most people don't really want better biomarkers. They want to feel focused, energized, calm, connected, resilient, and alive.We also dive deeply into intuition. Can intuition actually be trained? Dave believes it can.Using Moneyball as an analogy, Dave explains why the smartest decisions often come from combining data with intuition rather than choosing one over the other. The challenge is learning to distinguish genuine intuitive signals from fear, emotional reactivity, bias, and imagination.Dave shares how practices including meditation, breathwork, neurofeedback, altered states, and awareness trainingmay help quiet the nervous system enough to recognize those signals.Then we tackle one of the biggest questions in the longevity movement:What is the point of living longer?Dave has famously discussed dramatically extending human lifespan. But longevity, he argues, shouldn't simply mean accumulating more years. The opportunity is maintaining the energy, cognition, wisdom, relationships, purpose, and vitality necessary to make those additional years meaningful.The goal isn't simply lifespan. It's having more time to grow, contribute, connect, and become more fully human.In this episode, we explore:• How Dave Asprey's definition of biohacking has evolved• Why consciousness may be the next frontier of human optimization• Why spirituality became part of Dave's worldview• Whether intuition can be developed and trained• How meditation and breathwork can change your internal state• Why data and intuition work better together• The relationship between the nervous system, awareness, and decision-making• What altered states may reveal about consciousness• Dave's evolving philosophy of longevity and life extension• Why living longer without purpose misses the point• What the future of biohacking may look like beyond physical optimizationDave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, entrepreneur, investor, founder of Bulletproof, and host of The Human Upgrade. Widely recognized as the father of the modern biohacking movement, his work has helped bring biohacking, nootropics, fasting, cognitive optimization, mitochondrial health, and longevity into mainstream culture.But after decades spent upgrading the human body, Dave is asking a bigger question:What exactly are we upgrading it for?If you're interested in Dave Asprey, biohacking, longevity, consciousness, spirituality, meditation, breathwork, neuroscience, intuition, human performance, life extension, AI, altered states, or the future of human potential, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.#DaveAsprey #Biohacking #Longevity #Consciousness #HumanPotential #Spirituality

What if something you chose years ago—something you were told was safe—was quietly contributing to chronic inflammation, brain fog, fatigue, and a mysterious decline in your health?In this powerful episode, Ashley Grace sits down with former film and television actress and Olistico Life founder Candice Barley to explore her extraordinary journey from debilitating illness to becoming one of the leading voices in the breast explant and women’s holistic health community.For nearly 15 years, Candice struggled with worsening health problems without understanding their source. Eventually, her condition became so severe that she was spending most of her day in bed, experiencing full-body tremors, heart palpitations, difficulty breathing, extreme fatigue, gut issues, and rapidly worsening liver markers.Then came a moment Candice describes as divine intervention.While desperately asking what was wrong with her, Candice says she heard two words: “breast implants.”What makes her story particularly striking is that her implants weren’t ruptured. They were intact.Within eight weeks, Candice had them removed. She says her symptoms began resolving and her liver markers dramatically improved, launching a years-long investigation into breast implant illness, chronic inflammation, silicone and siloxanes, mitochondrial health, detoxification, environmental toxins, and the body’s response to foreign materials.Today, Candice works alongside surgeons and functional medicine practitioners, helping women better understand their bodies and make informed decisions about their health. Her message isn’t based on fear—and she isn't simply telling every woman with implants to remove them. Instead, she believes women deserve more information about what may be happening inside their bodies so they can make their own informed choices.In this conversation, Ashley and Candice explore:• Candice’s nearly 15-year health struggle and eventual explant• The mysterious experience that led her to question her breast implants• Why Candice believes intact implants can still affect some women• Breast implant illness and what she calls “breast implant inflammation”• Silicone, siloxanes, foreign-body response, and chronic inflammation• Brain fog, fatigue, sleep, hormones, and mitochondrial health• Why removing implants may only be the beginning of the recovery journey• The connection Candice sees between mitochondria, longevity, and biohacking• Her personal experience with Igniton products• Why IgniCognition felt to Candice like “a light turns on”• The importance of informed consent and becoming your own health advocate• How a devastating health crisis ultimately gave Candice a new purposeCandice’s story ultimately goes far beyond breast implants. It’s about learning to listen to your body, questioning assumptions, taking ownership of your health, and asking a simple but profound question:How good can I feel?Whether you have breast implants, have undergone an explant, are dealing with unexplained inflammation or brain fog, or are simply interested in women’s health, longevity, mitochondrial health and the rapidly evolving world of biohacking, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.Learn more about Candice Barley and Olistico Life, and discover Igniton’s approach to the emerging frontier of quantum wellness at Igniton.com.Topics: Candice Barley, breast implant illness, breast explant, explant surgery, breast implant inflammation, silicone implants, chronic inflammation, women’s health, mitochondrial health, mitochondria, brain fog, fatigue, holistic health, functional medicine, biohacking, longevity, environmental toxins, detoxification, informed consent, health optimization, IgniCognition, Igniton, quantum wellness

What if the greatest mysteries of our past were never really about history—but about unlocking human potential?In this fascinating episode of the Igniton Podcast, we sit down with Freddy Silva, one of the world's leading researchers of ancient civilizations, sacred sites, lost wisdom traditions, and the profound relationship between consciousness and humanity's forgotten origins. A bestselling author, documentary filmmaker, and internationally respected lecturer, Freddy has spent more than two decades traveling the globe to investigate temples, pyramids, megalithic monuments, crop circles, and the mystery schools that once preserved humanity's deepest spiritual and scientific knowledge.Author of acclaimed books including The Divine Blueprint, The Missing Lands, The Lost Art of Resurrection, First Templar Nation, Scotland's Hidden Sacred Past, and Portals, Freddy combines meticulous historical research with firsthand exploration to reveal remarkable connections between archaeology, sacred geometry, energy, initiation, and the evolution of consciousness.In this wide-ranging conversation, we explore whether the world's ancient monuments were far more than architectural achievements. Could these extraordinary locations have functioned as technologies designed to elevate consciousness, accelerate healing, enhance intuition, and connect human beings to something greater than themselves? Why did nearly every advanced civilization construct sacred sites according to similar mathematical and astronomical principles? And what knowledge may have been deliberately forgotten—or hidden—from modern civilization?Freddy shares compelling insights into the mysteries of the pyramids, stone circles, megalithic temples, ley lines, sacred landscapes, and the role that initiation once played in transforming human awareness. We also discuss the Knights Templar, ancient mystery schools, lost civilizations, Atlantis traditions, crop circles, and why many indigenous cultures understood consciousness in ways that modern science is only beginning to investigate.For listeners interested in biohacking, longevity, spirituality, quantum science, human potential, archaeology, and consciousness research, this episode bridges ancient wisdom with modern curiosity. As scientific interest grows in topics such as biofields, coherence, meditation, neuroplasticity, and the measurable effects of consciousness, Freddy offers a unique historical perspective suggesting that many of these ideas may not be new discoveries at all—but rediscoveries of principles understood thousands of years ago.Throughout the conversation, we examine how sacred architecture may influence the human experience, why civilizations across continents independently created remarkably similar ceremonial structures, and what these patterns could reveal about our collective past and our future. Freddy also explains how pilgrimage, ritual, symbolism, and intentional interaction with sacred places have shaped cultures for millennia and why these practices continue to resonate today.Whether you're fascinated by ancient Egypt, the pyramids, Stonehenge, sacred geometry, the Knights Templar, lost civilizations, Atlantis, crop circles, human consciousness, spiritual awakening, hidden history, or the intersection of science and spirituality, this conversation offers an extraordinary journey through one of history's most compelling frontiers.If you've ever wondered whether humanity's greatest breakthroughs may come not only from discovering new technologies, but from recovering ancient knowledge that has been waiting to be understood again, this is an episode you won't want to miss.Topics covered include:Ancient civilizations and hidden historySacred sites, temples, and pyramidsSacred geometry and the Divine BlueprintConsciousness and human potential

Siobhan Maguire returns to the show to discuss her work which is helping bring about more of a balance between the masculine and feminine aspects of our world.  We discuss twin flames and how we can all shed the vices and bring in the virtues in order to help restore more feminine balance in our male dominated society which has existed since the fall of the Goddesses from the time of Atlantis.  All we need to do is to stay in our Hearts, have Faith and Surrender!   Code ASHLEY10 Saves 10% at Igniton.com Brain & Longevity Supplements Charged with Energy from the Sun; Peer-Reviewed Proven to Work BetterDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Guy Needler returns to the show to discuss that while mass ascension efforts may have stalled, we are each in charge of our own purification - and thus can impact our society in mass by learning to detach from our material world.  As Guy says, it's an internal fight, not an external one, and all religions are going to the same place.  

On this epsiode of Ashley On we are joined by a woman whose research and writing have helped reshape modern understanding of the Christian tradition — particularly when it comes to the often-misunderstood figure of Mary Magdalene.  Margaret Starbird is the author of several groundbreaking books, including The Woman with the Alabaster Jar, The Goddess in the Gospels, and Mary Magdalene, Bride in Exile. Through her scholarship, Margaret invites us to re-examine the sacred feminine, decode hidden symbolism, and explore the possibility that the Christian story we’ve inherited may be missing one of its most powerful truths.  In Dan Brown's famous book, The DaVinci Code, three books are cited as reference material; Margaret Starbird wrote two of them.  Enjoy the show!  Code ASHLEY10 Saves 10% at Igniton.com Brain & Longevity Supplements Charged with Energy from the Sun; Peer-Reviewed Proven to Work BetterDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Guy Needler is an old friend of the show and it was great to catch up with him once again.  We discuss how good it feels to lead by example in doing the right things and thus how one can use selfish desires to positively impact the world.  The body as a vehicle for our perpetual soul is another topic of conversation, along with the reality that we are all here to evolve.  So the entire point is to change and grow one's opinions based on wisdom.  Finally we discuss how good it feels to have a life philosophy whereby one always assumes others are doing the best that they can.  Try it!  Hope you enjoy the show.Code ASHLEY10 Saves 10% at Igniton.com Brain & Longevity Supplements Charged with Energy from the Sun; Peer-Reviewed Proven to Work BetterDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Singing is Believing!  Koolulam is a "social musical initiative" that is changing the world by putting out what I like to call "Fast Waves" or ripples of positivity in our world that physically must overcome the low vibration waves of war.  Though it may not feel like that to founder and CEO, Michal Shahaf now due to the horrible war that is ravaging Israel at the time of our recording, she and all involved in Koolulam are undoubtedly slowly changing our world for the better and we owe them a large debt of gratitude as such.   This is a fantastic interview with Michal who is trying to keep her light shining bright during these trying times.  In fact, a new Koolulam song/video will soon be released which is a collaborative effort by music directors all over the world performing Madonna's "Like a Prayer" in the spirit of Peace.  #koolulam #peace #oneday #likeaprayer #ashleyon #fastwaves #loveCode ASHLEY10 Saves 10% at Igniton.com Brain & Longevity Supplements Charged with Energy from the Sun; Peer-Reviewed Proven to Work BetterDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Hempseed has always been legal in the US for human consumption and anyone in the US can simply go to their local supermarket and pick up some hempseed oil or hemp hearts in order to fortify their nutrition.  Yet, for some reason,  we are not allowed to feed it to our horses or to our dogs to aid nutrition or reduce inflammation.  Whether or not horses and dogs are allowed to eat hempseed may seem like a trivial pursuit for some, but those who are interested in a future where hemp can eliminate plastic, paper and toxic building materials are very interested in this topic.  While hemp is exponentially faster than trees at reducing CO2 from the air (and in some locations can be grown 2-3 times per year!), today hemp stalks are too expensive to be used as a replacement for petroleum and wood based products.  However,  if the associated hempseed is able to be fed to the farm animals, the economics of using hemp stalk as a more sustainable option to replace plastics drastically shift.  Dr. Kristine Ely from Virginia Tech has done research showing that not only is hempseed oil safe for horses, but horses who were fed hempseed oil:(a) had NO cannabinoids (THC, CBD, etc.) contamination present in their blood (b) DID have significant increases of γ-Linolenic acid (GLA),  a unique fatty acid that is uncommon in horse's diets and which increases the horse's production of anti-inflammatory eicosanoids(c) had NO other inflammatory biomarkers influenced by treatment

This show is with Barrie Schwortz who participated in an amazing mission with elite scientists to verify the authenticity of the Shroud of Turin and has been featured on Gaia TV and many other programs discussing this amazing artifact.  Barrie runs theShroud.com website:  "The Shroud of Turin is a centuries old linen cloth that bears the image of a crucified man. A man that millions believe to be Jesus of Nazareth. Is it really the cloth that wrapped his crucified body, or is it simply a medieval forgery, a hoax perpetrated by some clever artist? Modern science has completed hundreds of thousands of hours of detailed study and intense research on the Shroud. It is, in fact, the single most studied artifact in human history, and we know more about it today than we ever have before. And yet, the controversy still rages."

Mushrooms such as Reishi, Lion's Mane, Cordyceps, and Turkey Tail are known as "Functional Mushrooms" due to their amazing health benefits and to differentiate themselves from "Medicinal Mushrooms" which are psychedelic in nature.   There are numerous "functional mushrooms" on the market, but how is one to know what's in them and who to trust?  Mycolove Farm in Ft. Lupton, Colorado organically produces these functional mushrooms and uses their fruiting bodies (not the mycelium) to create highly potent extracts which support health and wellness.   We talk to the founder and CEO, Shane Schoolman, about these amazing foods.  

Why are we here?  A leading clairvoyant healer that is often featured on Gaia TV, Dr. Lauren Cielo joins the show to talk about the concept of the Soul Contract and how that fits with our journey here on Earth.  We also discuss the chakras, energy-flow, and the concept of ascension.  Great information for those who are curious as to why we are here and who believe in the power of the energy that is in us and all around us, but can't be seen. 

Things are definitely changing but sometimes we don't realize that upticks in consciousness don't take a continuously upward trajectory.   Rather, it's more like 2 steps forward, 1 step backward in terms of how our society's vibration is evolving.  Author and medium, Guy Needler, is an old friend of the show and joins us once again to discuss our progress in raising the collective vibration of those here on Earth as well as the new books that he has in development.  Enjoy the show!

Mushrooms are an amazing life form that have so many benefits for our society.   Shannon Mead from No More Butts is working with a new mushroom technology that is cleaning up the waste from cigarette butts.  Cigarette butts contain plastic and all sorts of toxic chemicals that are horrible for our environment.  Shannon and his team have figured out a way to use cigarette butts as food for a variety of oyster mushrooms that can naturally decompose the cigarette butt and leave nothing but  mushroom mycelium that can be used for a variety of industrial uses.

Dr. Beelman has been researching the nutritious value of mushrooms since the 1970's.  His research identified the amino acid, Ergothioneine (or Ergo), as being abundantly prevalent in mushrooms and it is found in animals that have eaten grasses containing Ergo.  According to WEBMD, studies indicate that Ergo may provide beneficial support for Alzheimer's, the liver, joints, cataracts, diabetes and the heart.   In order to increase long-term health outcomes and life expectancy, Dr. Beelman encourages greater consumption of mushrooms as a means to significantly increase consumption of Ergo  and other important micronutrients found in mushrooms.   Dr. Beelman's research has also identified how non-regenerative agricultural practices can have a significantly negative impact on Ergo levels in the food supply; as animals are no longer getting Ergo nutrients from the soil which are destroyed each year by tilling and chemicals.  Code ASHLEY10 Saves 10% at Igniton.com Brain & Longevity Supplements Charged with Energy from the Sun; Peer-Reviewed Proven to Work BetterDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

The Adams Event:   Our Earth has two magnetic poles:  North and South.  However, these poles are not stable as they shift periodically based on movements of the Earth's molten iron center -- as it sloshes around so to speak, the poles move around a bit.  However, the Adams Event was a phenomenon 42,000 years ago where the Earth's magnetic North and South Poles flipped, switching places for several hundred years before returning to their original positions.  Why is this relevant?  Because our magnetic North Pole is on the run now speeding up its movement toward Siberia from 9mi per year in the 90s to over 30mi per year now!  We discuss this with expert, Prof. Alan Cooper. 

John Roulac is a true natural foods and agriculture pioneer, having sued the DEA and winning regarding hemp seed legality, founding Nutiva superfoods, and producing Kiss the Ground on Netflix.  We talk about all of this and more.  John had just finished his appearance on RFK Jr.'s podcast and was fired up.   John is highly controversial because he is a self identified liberal who happens to question the liberal agenda for foods and pharmaceuticals (similar to RFK Jr.).  John rightly identifies that many of today's liberals are like yesterday's right wingers dictating and demanding an anti-freedom and dangerous agenda.   Despite all of this, John leaves us with a positive message:  "Don't Hate.  Even Bayer/Monsanto...don't hate them."   Note:  Ashley On represents a staunchly independent political viewpoint.
