  • You're curious how far your cognitive abilities can stretch with the right, effective training.
  • You’re stressed and fatigued and you're convinced there must be a way to navigate the ups and downs without the overwhelm.
  • You're on a quest for a deeper understanding of your own mind and emotions. You seek insight that leads to personal growth and harmony.
  • Your creativity feels maxed out and you wish for a way to ignite that innovative spark.
  • You seek deeper connections. You want to nurture and strengthen your relationships at every level.

Testimonials

Their Stories,

What I got out of it was “freedom.” The thing that truly made this the most powerful personal growth experience I've ever had was the sense of liberation I felt at the end of it. I had cleaned myself of so many grudges I had held onto for years. I was able to let go of painful memories I had forgotten I even had. And I finally released the charges against people who I believed wronged me in my life. Nothing I've Studied In Meditation Comes Close To This. My Practice Has NEVER Evolved That Fast In Such A Short Amount Of Time. Bigger gains in faster time than any other form of meditation Today, I have never felt more at peace with myself.

40 Years of Zen was honestly life changing. I've never done any meditation, ever. I've done a lot of personal growth and always looked for the edge in business. I discovered I have a lot of invisible blocks and as I got into the training, they started disappearing. I know this is going to be the secret sauce to help me get to the next level in business.

By reducing wasted energy on triggers, I've unlocked limitless potential. The more I invest in myself, the more I thrive. 40 Years of Zen has given me the tools to perform at my best and focus on what truly matters.

A NOTE FROM THE FOUNDER

hello,
I’m
Dave Asprey,

father of biohacking, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, Four-Time New York Times bestselling author, and host of The Human Upgrade Podcast.

Over the last two decades, I’ve attended eight, seven-day-long old-school neurofeedback programs. I went in because I wanted to hack my brain to maximize the impact I could have on my life. I had no idea how difficult it would be, or how amazing it would feel to come out of that training.

Simply put, I learned how to get out of my own way. I also learned how to remain calm and focused in any situation, and how to ensure I was making conscious decisions from the right place, rather than unconsciously making decisions that were ultimately not in my best interest.

However, the technology, while effective, was outdated and only able to train 10-20 different mental variables.

Then I learned about new advances in Neurofeedback technology that allowed me to train up to 8,000 different variables. And by utilizing my own food and supplement regimen I was able to DOUBLE the amount of neurofeedback training I could do. I doubled my training and quadrupled my results.

Combining cutting edge technology in neurofeedback and nutrition with the expertise of top neuroscientists, meditators, and industry leading executive trainers, I crafted 40 Years of Zen: the most powerful 5 Day Neurofeedback Program on the planet.

This type of training radically changes and improves the way you treat yourself and the way you treat others. I am a different and better father, husband, friend, and executive after having been through it.

And now I’m offering the same gift to you.

frequently asked questions

Electrodes are placed on your head to measure your brainwave activity. Your brain gets rewarded with a cue, audio and/or visual, when your brain’s neural activity is firing optimally.  The brain begins to learn very quickly, “when I create these waves, I get that reward, and I like that reward so I’m going to create more and more of those waves.” What’s happening is the brain is interacting with its own electrical signal for the first time and is able to develop new neural pathways much faster than it would through life experience, specialized and intentional practices, or meditation.

There is an initial focus on Alpha with some work in Gamma and/or Slow Cortical Potential depending on the needs of the Client. 

With an individualized brain map reading for the client on day 1 of the program week, our technicians calibrate the brain wave training program by targeting different parts of the brain and the ideal brain wave frequencies for optimal feedback. As clients progress through more advanced training, there is an integration of further brain wave neurofeedback training, including Theta and Slow Cortical Potential, as well as Alpha/Theta Entrainment. With high-end hardware and software, you train to enhance the optimal neuronal activity of the brain.

The price of the 5 Day Master Program is $16,000. The program fee includes the 5-day neurofeedback training program, with individual brain map and review, POD and CAP Training, Facilitation, private Chef created lunches and dinners and supplements for the week. 

A $5,000 deposit is required to book your date. The deposit is non-refundable but is transferable when rescheduled more than 30 days from the beginning of your scheduled training date. The final balance is due 30 days prior to your training date.

Neither accommodation nor transportation are included. Clients are responsible for any flights and transportation to and from the airport.

The 40 Years of Zen program week is a 5 Day experience that runs from Monday to Friday. It starts at 8:30 am each day and usually finishes by 6:30 pm in the evenings after dinner. There are a few variables involved so it is not possible to provide exact times. The days are full as you are getting the work-out your brain needs for you to upgrade you and life.

You are invited to arrive at 8:30 to start your morning with danger coffee or tea, with all the fixings available for you to have your drink as you want. We recommend intermittent fasting, however if you’re accustomed to breakfast, we will have a light paleo breakfast available. 

The bulk of the day consists of brain wave training with pod training on specific brain wave frequencies and a 19-electrode 3D cap training which gives you the ability to focus on upgrading specific aspects of your own brain. Facilitation,  19-channel CAP training, and instruction are given to you as you go through your day to make sure you get the most out of your experience as possible. 

You will be given different protocols and processes throughout the week. Each day builds on the previous days’ experience.
