ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
In this dynamic episode, I connect with Dr. Thomas Seager to explore the biophysics of nature-inspired healing. The conversation begins with a prelude featuring Dean Hall, who provides insight into Dr. Seager’s background, character, and warmth beyond his academic achievements. Dr. Seager and ! dive into the science of cold thermogenesis, examining how cold exposure impacts nervous system regulation and stimulates internal light production to synthesize vitamin D. We also explore the emerging science of green light therapy, ancestral wisdom around wood fires, the importance of trace minerals, and how to develop an independent mindset to make meaning out of life's symbols.
Thomas Seager, PhD is CEO of Morozko Forge ice bath company, which he co-founded in 2018. He is also Associate Professor in the School of Sustainable Engineering & the Built Environment at Arizona State University in Tempe, AZ and has authored two books:
- Uncommon Cold: The Science & Experience of Cold Plunge Therapy, and
- Uncommon Testosterone: Cold Plunge Therapy for Optimizing Sexual Health.
Packed with hundreds of scientific citations and documented case studies, these works are the definitive scientific companions to cold plunge therapy. Professor Seager has also published more than 150 scientific articles related to human & infrastructure resilience, industrial ecology, and the environment.
