In our Health Stack series, Wellworthy taps into its network of health and fitness experts to offer personal insights and recommendations.
Robbie Bent is the co-founder and chief executive officer of Othership, a sauna and ice-bath studio and breathwork app.
Othership delivers group and solo sessions to enhance mental and emotional well-being — through what Bent refers to as “peak experiences.” With two locations in Canada, Othership is opening its first US location in New York City’s Flatiron District this summer.
Here’s Robbie to share his Health Stack.
”I used the aging product as part of a group challenge to see how fast I’m aging. I learned about TruDiagnostic through Bryan Johnson and thought it was cool to have a single metric or score around longevity.”
“I recently became a Dad and became obsessed with knowing whether I am healthy. Love getting peace of mind from the early cancer detection.”
Othership helps you regulate your emotions and nervous system through guided breathwork. It uses slow, deep breathing techniques, to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, signaling your body to relax.
“This makes it really easy to do zone 2 cardio when I’m taking calls or listening to podcasts. On days when I get some gentle cardio in, I feel much more grounded. It helps that I can stack this at home while working.”
“We have this [custom-built 12-person sauna and cold plunge] in our backyard and the sauna includes a wifi connected Harvia stove. My wife and I use it for date nights to connect after a long day in front of the computer.”
“Last summer, I used Ketone IQ in the morning to replace my coffee (and would have my first single shot americano after 11 am). Recently I started, using Mateina Sugarless Yerba Mate and the loose-leaf product and quit coffee altogether. I am finding that the energy from the traditional Yerba lasts longer with much less anxiety.”
“I love their simple focus on the highest quality ingredients. I use the Amino tablets and Organ + daily.”
“The Peanut butter protein and colostrum are my favorite supplements on the market. A lot of days I can end up right into work and forget to eat. Prioritizing a shake with Athletic Greens, banana, avocado, equip protein, colostrum, almond butter, cinnamon, coconut milk, and cocoa powder once per day has been hugely helpful.”
