The Trail is the Lab

We want to invite you to a hike — but not a normal one.
Most longevity content comes in a bottle, a wearable, or a protocol. This is a day where the only equipment is your own physiology, and the mountain runs the test.
📅 When: Sunday, September 20, 9:00 AM
📍 Meeting point: Hauptbahnhof, at the start of the platform of the train to Tegernsee
🚶 Plan: Tegernsee hike with mouth taping, breathwork and lunch (see route here: komoot.com/tour/42930539)
🎟️ Free, but limited spots only
We'll hike up to Riederstein nose-only, mouths taped, which adds resistance, slows the breath down, and builds CO2 tolerance — and yes, makes the climb feel harder than expected. (Most people discover their aerobic base is thinner than they thought.) At the top, we'll pair the physical work with a breathwork exercise guided by Livian, our faciliator, to feel the shift from stressed to settled.
There will also be prompts along the way, and a short exercise for the quiet-headed, tired-body window — often the best place for the psychological work to land.
