#1374 - Justin Wren

Joe Rogan (0:04)

And we're live. Hello, Justin Wren.

Justin Wren (0:05)

Hello.

Joe Rogan (0:06)

What's going on, buddy? You got a book in front of you? What the fuck is going on?

Justin Wren (0:08)

Oh, I just got a couple of notes.

Joe Rogan (0:09)

Look how organized you are with your tabs.

Justin Wren (0:11)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (0:12)

I've never had tabs in my life.

Justin Wren (0:13)

Yeah, this is actually from James Clear. Have you heard of him? Atomic Habits, New York Times bestselling author.

I didn't plan on talking about him at all, but-

Joe Rogan (0:21)

What the notebook is?

Justin Wren (0:22)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (0:23)

Oh, so you bought one of his notebooks?

Justin Wren (0:25)

Yeah, it goes along with his New York Times bestselling book called Clear, where you put down your daily habits, and then you just kind of can check them off as you do them throughout the day.

Joe Rogan (0:33)

What's your daily habits?

Justin Wren (0:34)

Well, I have a morning routine where I wake up and where I'm at, I have a Peloton. So, I jump on that for like 30 minutes right in the morning, right when I get out of bed.

Joe Rogan (0:42)

Right when you get out of bed?

Justin Wren (0:43)

Well, right when I get out of bed, I do 15 minutes of breathing.

Joe Rogan (0:46)

Just breathing?

Justin Wren (0:47)

Yeah, but I do like five minutes of myself laying in bed.

Joe Rogan (0:50)

It's called laying in bed.

Justin Wren (0:50)

There you go. Yeah, drifting away.

I kind of drift away for 15, 20 minutes.

Joe Rogan (0:55)

What kind of breathing are you doing?

Justin Wren (0:57)

So, just kind of focused where I breathe in six to eight seconds and kind of count the in-breath, then count the hold, and then count the exhale.

Joe Rogan (1:04)

So it's a meditation?

Justin Wren (1:05)

Mm-hmm.

Joe Rogan (1:05)

And you do that for 15 minutes every morning?

Justin Wren (1:07)

15 minutes, three short ones back to back to back there through headspace. And I actually just got a new phone. I don't have the new headspace downloaded, but I have three five-minute breathing techniques that are really three to five minutes each. So sometimes it's only like nine minutes.

Joe Rogan (1:20)

And what do you get out of that?

Justin Wren (1:22)

For me, I think I'm just kind of setting the tone for the day.

And just kind of clearing my mind. Instead of first thing, I used to be bad about this. First thing waking up, I'd grab my phone. Everybody does that. And then it would be emails, text messages, notifications. And then you're starting your day reactive instead of proactive.

Joe Rogan (1:43)

Ooh, I like what you're saying, Justin Wren, I like his thinking.

Justin Wren (1:47)

Wake up, do that. I get on the Peloton right after that. I try to drink a liter of water.

Now you got me on this Laird superfood.

Joe Rogan (1:54)

It's a great thing to get going with.

Justin Wren (1:57)

It is so good.

Joe Rogan (1:59)

Yeah, his coffee, particularly his turmeric.

Justin Wren (2:02)

I love it. Yes, that's what this is. This is my first time having that because it's always out.

Joe Rogan (2:05)

So good for you. First of all, turmeric is amazing for you. Fight off inflammation. And then this with coffee as well.

It tastes so good, too.

Justin Wren (2:13)

Have you had the hydrate? Not the coffee, but the hydrate.

Joe Rogan (2:16)

Is that another one of his products? I have not tried that.

Justin Wren (2:18)

Oh, my gosh. It's so good. I should have brought it for you.

I'm in California, and we had this already set up, but a buddy of mine walked across America for Fight for the Forgotten. He heard us on the show.

Joe Rogan (2:30)

You know him?

Justin Wren (2:31)

I didn't know him before the show.

Joe Rogan (2:32)

So he said, I'm going to walk across the entire country for the Pygmies.

Justin Wren (2:36)

Yeah, which was wild. He had already done something year before for the Paradise Fires. He's a professional drummer. Actually, you got to meet him right before we walked in here.

He's one of the cowboy hat, the Stetson.

Joe Rogan (2:49)

He's the second guy that I know that walked across America this year. Mike Posner is the other one we've been talking about coming on.

Mike and I have been going back and forth. He got bit by a fucking rattlesnake.

Justin Wren (2:58)

Jeremy has some wild stories. He actually just started this adventure coffee brand.
