Hey everyone! It's been a while. Well, we're back, with a great one. In this episode of The Light Diet podcast I interview my good friend and founder of Sauna Space, Brian Richards. This was a particularly interesting conversation because we both have a very deep knowledge and understanding of light to complement each other quite well. I'm interviewing Brian here and I definitely make sure to get his specific take on certain subjects where he has greater expertise than myself. We start...

In this Quantum Field Report I just started filming because I felt like sharing and I decided to see where my talking would lead. I got into the discussion of what it means to live a good life and that this has been my general pursuit for several years now; more specifically, to live the best life that I possibly can. Of course, to do so requires defining what a good life is as a whole. What does this mean? Is it subjective, a matter of opinion, or objective, a matter of fact? Many people...

In this episode, I share something that I have been looking into a lot recently which is bitcoin. At first I didn't understand bitcoin, but as I put the pieces together with all of my thinking about money and business over the last many years, I came to understand that bitcoin is far more than just a catchy name and get rich quick scheme as some people think. Digital currency is the future of all money. Just as the Internet has taken over, it is bound to as well. Money is a physical...

This episode is a re-broadcast from a podcast appearance on the Carnivore Yogi podcast, hosted by Sarah Kleiner. I had such an amazing time with this discussion and found it so valuable myself that I wanted to re-share it on The Light Diet Podcast. In this episode we discuss my story, the basis for The Light Diet, and we get into detail on the factors in my life that led me to realize that The Light Diet is ultimately a spiritual way of being, more than just a daily protocol for light...

This one was something else. I was inspired by something I was reading and decided to just open up my phone to share about it. Little did I know I would end up speaking for over an hour about all the things that I've been experiencing lately, and the things I've been learning. I'm very glad I did, because I think it will be of tremendous value to you. I discuss my trip to Russia and some of the things I experienced there, going to a weeklong advanced meditation retreat with Dr. Joe...

On today's quantum field report I get into a subject that I have been considering for a long time now. This is a subject that is very important to consider for anyone who is interested in healing. Typically when we feel uncomfortable or some unpleasant emotion, we point our fingers outside and say that it's because of something outside of us. In reality, all of the world is occurring within our head, so there is some lack of something within us that this external perception is activating. ...

In this Quantum Field Report I detail my experience with learning about Ayurvedic medicine and a specific protocol that I tried out and continue to utilize. Interestingly enough, as life would have it, a friend who I met surfing in the water in Bali happens to be a leading Indian (Ayurvedic) medicine doctor, and although at first I was not prepared to understand a lot of what he teaches, over time I started to realize that it is actually the next level of what I call "The Light Diet”. ...

A lot of people have recently been posting stories and tweets talking about how their sleep is being transformed with Ra Sleep Lenses. I wanted to make a video to break down simply how this actually works and why it works. Please leave comments and don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have :-) ______________ Matt Maruca is a young man who faced health challenges as a kid and after all traditional strategies failed, took it upon himself to understand how the body works, and...

In this quantum field report I share some experiences that I have been having recently that are leading me to the conclusion that there is much greater intelligence than ourselves out there and that it's possible that one of the best things that we can do is to "surrender" in a sense; not to cower down from our lives and feel powerless, but actually to embrace everything that we have and to do the absolute best that we can with what's on our plate every day; surrendering in this sense to the...

Hey everyone, as I posted yesterday, I am super stoked to be announcing The Light Diet course. This course is some thing that anyone can use to completely transform their health using light. I have explained everything simply enough that anyone can do this, no matter how much or how little they know about biology; and so that at the same time, someone who knows a lot about health can learn some thing they might not already know, or have a simple foundation of a protocol for optimizing...

Hey everybody! In this quantum field report I recount my thoughts on Tulum Mexico after the Joe Dispenza weeklong meditation retreat. It's a very interesting town with a very interesting energy, which I'm personally not most drawn to. Nonetheless, it's a beautiful place with kind people that a lot of tourists and travelers really love, and often stay. For the type of chill vibes and experience that I prefer, I still recommend Costa Rica to people as my preferred tropical place to go to...

First of all, for Instagram, I just want to note that I have started over the order of my Quantum Field Reports because I am now posting them primarily on The Light Diet podcast. So, go to your podcast player and subscribe to The Light Diet Podcast to check out these quantum field reports on a regular basis, often several times per week. As often as I feel inspired to share! In this quantum field report, I get into a discussion about my own spiritual journey and how I've come to see that...

In this quantum field report I get into a discussion about some thing that I just made an Instagram post and a tweet about as well. It is the fact that the light we live under powers our body, and if we live in doors under man-made/artificial light sources, it is literally like trying to power a refrigerator with a phone charger, in the sense that the energy provided by the one is completely and thoroughly insufficient to provide the energy required by the other. Matt Maruca is a young man...

Just to be clear, I love to listen to music, to sing, and to enjoy life’s beautiful joys and pleasures. In this quantum field report, I begin by discussing how people who find that they cannot sit in a car by themselves quietly for hours (like a meditation), or constantly need to listen to music, or need any other sort of external source of pleasure to feel good, may find that their mind is filled with thoughts and beliefs that they cannot stand to just be with. I’ve been like this for much...

In this quantum field report I am laying on the beach in the sun in Puerto Viejo Costa Rica. I thought it would be nice to share some of my experiences with the energy of this town with you to inspire the potential or existing traveler within you. I also share how this is a great place to practice The Light Diet. Matt Maruca is a young man who faced health challenges as a kid and after all traditional strategies failed, took it upon himself to understand how the body works, and heal. He came...

In this quantum field report I share some thoughts that I have been having about how I can both maximize my focus on my contribution and creativity while at the same time traveling and exploring the world; basically, how I can “have my cake and eat it too”, as the saying goes. I share some insight from an article that I recently read about Ernest Hemingway's morning routine that really inspired me, and may inspire you, too. Matt Maruca is a young man who faced health challenges as a kid and...

In this quantum field report I discuss how I was born and raised an “atheist” and a myriad of experiences and struggles have scientifically led me to have a deeper understanding of what people call "God” than I would have imagined this journey would grant. I'm not claiming that my perspectives are the truth, but I think you may find them interesting and relevant to your own experiences and spiritual journey. We are all on a spiritual path; The question is whether we know so we know so or...

On this episode of the light diet podcast, I interviewed my good friend Ryan Carter. Ryan is a certified nutritionist in the UK, and runs a wildly successful Instagram page @livevitae. Ryan has an amazing health journey like many of us, going through a wide variety of strategies to try to improve his health that led him to deeper and deeper understandings of life. Ryan and I met through our mutual friend Tim Gray a few years ago at the London health optimization summit where I was speaking...

On this podcast I interviewed my good friend Kyle Kingsbury. Kyle is a former professional fighter and worked as the Director of Human optimization at Onnit with Aubrey Marcus for several years. Now he’s focused on running the Kyle Kingsbury Podcast, on which he connects with some of the greatest minds from around the globe via interviews. I met Kyle a few years ago when I went to Onnit to do a podcast about the health effects of sunlight. Kyle has such a positive and strong energy that is so...

In this episode of The Light Diet Podcast Matt interviews Dr. Chris Shade, Founder and CEO of Quicksilver Scientific. Dr. Shade shares how he became who he is, why he ended up in Colorado and his experience with photobiophysics (the use of mirrors to reflect light and polarize it). Join Matt and Dr. Shade as they dive deep into the supplements which are capable of supercharging and improving our bodies, where to get the right phosphatidylcholine, about DHA and Dr. Shade’s go-to protocols to...
