I spent three years working on the book, and I was dreaming about it at some points.

It takes over your life, and I wanted to learn everything I could.

Had I written the book that I really wanted to write, it probably would have been this thick.

But on the other hand, I wanted to put things in the book that you can't just easily go and Google.

I wanted to give you the why behind the what.

Because I felt like if you understood why these things worked and you could actually see the data and maybe even meet some of the researchers who many of them have pained themselves.

And that's what inspired them to do this kind of work and understand their stories and then understand how they set up an experiment and how they validated the experiment and then what it means for you.

It's powerful stuff.

It's powerful for me.

I incorporate these things into my own life as well.

My wife gets tremendous relief from meditation now, and she is the biggest skeptic of all.

I'm skeptical.

Well, she's a lawyer, a former lawyer.

That's cool.
