Most of Us Are Walking Around Holding the Inhale.
This doesn’t mean stress is inherently bad. Tension isn’t the enemy. In fact, deep relaxation requires tension. Think about breathing. We need the inhale, but without the exhale, we suffocate. The problem is that most of us are walking around holding the inhale.
Go ahead and check in with your body right now. Drop your shoulders. Release your jaw. Take a slow breath out. Were you holding tension without realizing it?
45 sec
The time a deep belly breath takes to signal your brain: relax.
The Body Complains; It Doesn’t Explain.
The Body Is Not Something We Need to Hack. It’s Something We Need to Get Back in Tune With.
The human body is the product of millions of years of evolution. All we really need to do to access that wisdom is simple: stop overriding it, quiet the noise, and listen.
Relax, You’ll Live Longer
My new book. No equipment, no extreme discipline, no endless willpower. Just the resets your body already knows, and the science of why they work.
- Twenty-one practices, from breath and humming to forgiveness and trauma release.
- Exercises you can start today: the Calm Body, Calm Mind breath, my 10 Sleep Rules, the psoas release.
- Grounded in the research I cite at the back: breathwork, stress and aging, forest bathing.

I Didn’t Read About It. I Lived It.
2008
The Rapper
I grew up on the north side of St. Louis making hip hop. I won a VIBE magazine contest and started the Make S.M.A.R.T. Cool movement while finishing my anthropology degree, magna cum laude, at the University of Missouri-St. Louis.
2014
The Filmmaker
I left music to make spoken word films. They have been watched billions of times, and they put me on Oprah’s SuperSoul 100 and the Forbes 30 Under 30 list.
A Decade
The Search
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been searching for the holy grail of peak health and performance. I experimented with hundreds of supplements, various exercise systems, and complex biohacking protocols in an attempt to optimize my life and live as my highest version.

The Answer
And the answer was hidden in plain sight. Relax, You’ll Live Longer is the book that came out of it: twenty-one built-in resets your body already knows.
Stress Doesn’t Exist. At Least, Not as a Diagnosis.
From now on, whenever you say “stress” or “anxiety,” I want you to think “fear.” Stress is just fear dressed in nice clothes. Fear itself is not pathological. When fear is acknowledged rather than resisted, the nervous system can begin to settle.

- The year I left hip hop for films
I’m a spoken word artist, filmmaker, author and speaker. I graduated magna cum laude in Anthropology from the University of Missouri-St. Louis. I was named to Oprah’s SuperSoul 100 and Forbes 30 Under 30, and I host Sauna Sessions on SiriusXM.
Where the research I cite stands
A 2023 meta-analysis of randomized trials found breathwork associated with lower self-reported stress.
Fincham et al. 2023, Scientific Reports
Research links chronic stress load to markers of biological aging and earlier mortality.
Epel et al. 2004, PNAS · Parker et al. 2022, AJPM, allostatic load
More daily steps are associated with lower all-cause mortality in large cohort studies.
Paluch et al. 2022, Lancet Public Health
Studies associate time in forests with lower cortisol.
Antonelli et al. 2019, Int J Biometeorology

Questions, Answered.
Aren’t You the Poetry Guy?
I am. My films have been watched billions of times. And for as long as I can remember, I’ve been searching for the holy grail of peak health and performance: hundreds of supplements, exercise systems, biohacking protocols. The answer was hidden in plain sight. This is the same message, aimed at the body.
I’ve Tried Meditation.
So had I. Pranayama, the Wim Hof Method, none of it stuck for me. What stuck was the simplest approach of all: observing the breath. Meditation is not something you do; it is a state of being. Day 3 takes about forty-five seconds. Start there.
I Don’t Have Time.
You don’t need to do all twenty-one. You don’t need to do them perfectly. One reset a day, five to ten minutes on video with me, and the breath itself takes about forty-five seconds. It takes as much energy to worry as it does to plan.
I Follow the Longevity Podcasts. What’s Different?
Respect to the science. When I studied the longest-lived people on the planet, what stood out most wasn’t what they were doing; it was what they weren’t doing. This is the other half: not adding, releasing.
Is This Medical Advice?
No. My book opens with a medical disclaimer, and so does this site. These are practices. Keep your doctor. Day 2 is a list of questions to bring to your next appointment.
Why Pay When Your Book Has It All?
My book is the map. The Reset is twenty-one days with me on video, one practice a day, three live calls, and the audio I recorded for it. Reading about the exhale is not the same as being walked through it.
In a World That Wants You Tense, Relaxation Is a Superpower.
Do not believe me. Try it.
