How to Get and Stay Sober in 2026 (The Biohacker’s Guide) | Luke Storey : 1386

Luke Storey's prayer moment that broke his addiction

Luke Storey recounts the pivotal moment in rehab when, desperate for relief from withdrawal and told to pray, he got on his hands and knees and prayed the most humble, sincere prayer of his life to be free from addiction.

"I check myself into rehab and I'm going through all kinds of crazy withdrawal And I'm like, can you guys give me some dilated or something?"

Loneliness as the root driver of modern addiction

Luke shares his realization that loneliness and disconnection from others is one of the main underlying issues driving addiction, which has become an even bigger problem as people have become increasingly separated from their communities.

"It's come to my awareness that this has become an even bigger problem than ever And I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that one of the main underlying issues in addiction is just loneliness"

The biohacker's approach to sobriety and recovery

Dave Asprey frames the conversation around understanding how the body creates addiction at a biological level, noting that many socially acceptable behaviors like work addiction, social media, and gambling share the same underlying mechanisms.

"I want to talk about psychedelics and addiction and recovery because Luke has Has been very public about his history with addiction and the reason you might say oh, I don't care about this Is like I don't have addiction you actually may a lot of people have addictions that are just more socially Acceptable like a work addiction"
