Today’s guest, Ryan Anderson, has spent nearly two decades on the front lines as a firefighter paramedic, witnessing firsthand how stress, trauma, and modern living impact the human body and mind. But in 2010, he discovered a powerful tool that changed everything—breathwork. Now a certified Oxygen Advantage instructor and integration coach with Being True To You, Ryan helps people regulate their nervous systems, reclaim their mental resilience, and tap into altered states of consciousness—all through the breath.
As the host of the WonderJunkie Podcast, Ryan explores psychedelics, social engineering, decentralization, and the quest for truth, speaking with some of the world’s most fascinating thinkers. In this episode, we’ll dive deep into:
✅ How breathwork can rewire your nervous system and optimize physical, mental, and spiritual health
✅ The hidden links between meaning-making, stillness, and peak human performance
✅ The psychedelic renaissance—is it a revolution or another form of control?
✅ And much more
Tune in for a mind-expanding conversation that just might change the way you see the world.
