65% increase in dopamine levels post a 20 minute meditation session. Add this to your routine, get in 2 sessions if possible morning and night. It will do wonders for how you feel about yourself.

[Dr. Brian Hoeflinger, MD @drhoeflinger]

I’m a retired brain surgeon and I wanna tell you why you feel like life is passing by. I just need one minute to explain this to you so hang in there.

Repetitive daily routines stop the brain from recording clear detailed memories. When every day looks the same, your brain does not track time the same as a clock does. It tracks change. If nothing new happens then days, months, and years start to blur together.

This is know as Time compression. When life lacks variety, your brain compresses past days together, making it feel like time is sped up.

To stop feeling like life is passing you by, add new experiences to your life. Break routine habits, like changing your daily home routine, taking a different route to work, or trying a new hobby.

Schedule small trips or plan new adventures so your days do not blend together.

Practice mindfulness by staying fully focused on what you are doing right now and not trying to race off to the next task.

Keep a journal and write down happy memories or memorable parts of the day before you go to sleep.

Take deep, calm breaths when you feel anxious or rushed to return your focus to the moment.

You can and you will retrain your brain to not feel like life is passing you by by following these few simple measures.

@drgurner I agree

The dad bod was never about “being out of shape.”

It’s about looking human instead of manufactured.

And apparently…

that can be hot.

[Dr. Ray Vitality @DrRayVitality]

So if you have a dad bod, maybe stop treating it like a temporary failure.

Get healthy.
Dress well.
Smell good.
Take care of yourself.
Then wear the confidence.
Because THAT is what makes the whole thing work.

If you're doing any of these, your testosterone is quietly tanking:

Sleeping less than 6 hours
Chronic stress with no outlet
Skipping resistance training
Cutting calories too aggressively
Heavy alcohol on weekends
Sitting 8+ hours a day
Low zinc / vitamin D intake
Excess body fat (especially abdominal)
Chronic low grade dehydration
Ignoring sleep apnea symptoms (snoring, daytime fatigue)

Testosterone doesn't crash overnight. It erodes quietly through habits like these. The good news: every one of these is reversible.

Follow for evidence-based men's health, not supplement hype.

7 things that actually move male libido ranked by evidence and not hype.

Most "libido tips" you see online have zero science behind them.

These do. 🧵

1. Sleep

Testosterone production peaks during deep sleep.

[Dr. Ray Vitality @DrRayVitality]

7. Fenugreek (the one supplement with real trial data)

A 2011 RCT and a 2016 study both found fenugreek extract improved libido/sexual function in men.

Not magic. But actual evidence, rare in this space.

None of this is about "hacks."
It's sleep, training, stress, food, and knowing when a symptom is your body telling you something bigger.
