How to Get & Stay Sober—Even if You Don’...

Dave Asprey
About this episode

IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™… you’ll learn Luke Storey’s definition of addiction and his strategies for healing, happiness, and high performance. He’s known for his irreverent, passionate, and humorous delivery, and it shows through in this conversation.

He overcame tremendous adversity from childhood trauma, adolescent criminality, and years of chronic alcohol and drug addiction. For 25 years, he’s focused on recovery, inner work, and personal development. If you’re currently working on addiction recovery, you’ll learn a lot from his experience. And even if you don’t share any aspect of Luke’s dark background, you may have your own type of addiction that could benefit from his wisdom. 

Luke’s a great writer, meditation and metaphysics teacher and lifestyle design expert who shares with you his transformative principles of health, addiction recovery, and spirituality. This discussion dives deep into addiction, how psychedelics—properly used with the help of a professional—can aid your recovery, and what it really takes to live and thrive once you get sober.
