Welcome to today’s ICYMI, where we kick off the week with a quick game-changing tip from past episodes that you might have missed. If the January blues have hit and Seasonal Affective Disorder has you crashing out, we’ve got you. Winter can leave us feeling exhausted, sad, unmotivated, and plagued by insomnia, so we’re throwing it back to biohacking expert Chloe Deutscher to break down what actually helps, from light therapy and SAD lamps to sleep regulation, overcoming insomnia, and supplements that naturally support mood + serotonin.

She’s the co-founder and the CEO of Liquid Culture, a biotech company focused on novel fungi manufacturing and developing innovative products for optimal wellbeing.
