Organic Optimisation By Jordan Davey

Jordan Davey

This podcast is where I go deeper into the work I do around health, energy and optimisation. You’ll hear conversations on gut health, hormones, circadian rhythm, nervous system regulation, training, nutrition, mindset and the daily habits that shape how you feel. The aim is to help you better understand your body, make sense of what may be driving your symptoms and give you practical tools you can actually use. Expect honest conversations, deeper education and clear takeaways you can apply to your own health and life.

    Episode 2: How to Repair the Damage From Years of Party Drug Use: The Complete Brain Recovery Guide

    Most people think once their party days are over, the body just moves on. But the brain never forgets the chemistry it's been put through - and for a lot of people, they're still living in the fallout years later without even knowing it. In this episode, Jordan goes deep into one of the most requested and least talked about topics in the health space. What do years of MDMA, cocaine, ketamine, alcohol and other party drugs actually do to your brain, your gut, your nervous system and your hormones - and more importantly, what can you do to repair it? This is the most comprehensive brain recovery guide Jordan has ever put together and it's all here in one episode. 💫 Stay Connected⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Work with Jordan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join Jordan’s Skool community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram:  - Jordan: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@jordan_davey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🕐 TIMESTAMPS [00:00] — Welcome + Jordan's decision to return to study neuroscience and psychopharmacology [02:30] — Why the brain never forgets: the long-term neurochemical imprint of party drug use [05:00] — The culture of drinking and drugs — and why it starts before the brain is even fully developed [07:30] — What clients look like years later: anxiety, brain fog, flat motivation, wired and tired [10:00] — What drugs actually do to your brain: the 4-stage process of damage [13:00] — Stage 1: Neurotransmitter flooding — MDMA, cocaine, alcohol and ketamine explained [15:30] — Stage 2: Receptor downregulation and desensitisation — why nothing feels fulfilling anymore [18:00] — Stage 3: Network disruption — how your reward, memory and executive function get fragmented [20:30] — Stage 4: Neuroplasticity working against you — inflammation, circadian disruption and new baselines [23:00] — The danger of stacking drugs: alcohol + MDMA, cocaine + ketamine and every combination explained [28:00] — The full symptom list: anxiety, broken sleep, hormonal chaos, gut issues, brain fog, emotional numbness and more [33:00] — Deep dive into each damaged neurotransmitter: GABA, glycine, acetylcholine, melatonin, neuromelanin, serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine [38:00] — The physical damage: sinuses, nasal airways, gut lining, microbiome, vagus nerve and blood brain barrier [42:00] — The glymphatic system: your brain's overnight wash cycle and why it's been compromised [44:30] — What a balanced, recovered brain actually feels like — the target state [46:00] — THE REPAIR PROTOCOL BEGINS: light and circadian reset [48:00] — Morning routine, solar callus building and cold thermogenesis [50:30] — Movement, nervous system regulation and breathwork protocols [52:30] — Lymphatic and glymphatic optimisation: the Big Six, hydration, sauna and rebounding [54:00] — Nutrition for brain repair: protein, minerals, fats, fermented foods and specific foods for each neurotransmitter [56:30] — The supplement stack: base stack, dopamine stack, calm and sleep stack, acetylcholine stack, neural inflammation stack and gut repair stack [58:30] — The long game: why this takes years, why it's worth it, and how to think about it [59:00] — Final words: this isn't about guilt, it's about ownership 🧠 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why one MDMA session can sharply deplete serotonin stores — and what consecutive weekends do to that system long term How cocaine distorts dopamine signalling and what that does to your cardiovascular system and reward pathways Why stacking drugs multiplies the damage exponentially — not just additively How your gut becomes the hidden victim of party drug use and why it matters for your brain chemistry The exact neurochemical profile behind chronic anxiety, low motivation, emotional numbness and brain fog after years of partying Why the glymphatic system is so critical to brain repair and how drugs block it from doing its job How to use light, cold, breathwork, movement and food to begin restoring neurotransmitter balance naturally The specific supplements that target each damaged system — and how to know which ones you actually need This episode is free for everyone - because brain health is foundational.

    Episode 1: Sleep Rebuilt - How to Turn Nights Into Your Greatest Medicine

    Most sleep advice tells you to get 8 hours. But you can lie in bed for 9 hours and still wake up completely wrecked - and if your circadian biology, body chemistry, and environment are working against you, no amount of time in bed will fix it. In this episode, Jordan breaks down sleep as a whole biological system - how it works, how we unknowingly destroy it, and exactly how to rebuild it so your nights actually regenerate you. This is Episode 1 for a reason. Sleep is the foundation that every other health practice is built on. Get this wrong, and your diet, training, supplements, and gut protocols will barely move the needle. 💫 Stay Connected⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Work with Jordan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join Jordan’s Skool community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram:  - Jordan: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@jordan_davey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🕐 TIMESTAMPS [00:00] — Welcome to the Organic Optimisation Podcast + what to expect from the show [02:30] — A real client story: the Oura ring that revealed the truth about "fine" sleep [06:00] — Why survival mode slowly becomes your new normal (and you don't even notice) [09:30] — Why sleep is your ultimate doctor: brain, hormones, immunity, metabolism & mitochondria [16:00] — Sleep architecture explained: the stages, cycles, and what each one actually does for you [22:00] — The biggest sleep killers: blue light, EMF, late eating, mouth breathing, alcohol & more [30:00] — Brainwaves & bioenergetics: delta, theta, and alpha — how your brain transitions through the night [35:30] — Light as the master switch: why your day sets up your night (morning sun, UVA windows & nighttime darkness) [41:00] — Food timing and sleep: insulin, melatonin, autophagy, prolactin & your gut microbiome [44:30] — Nervous system & breathing mechanics: why nasal breathing is non-negotiable for deep sleep [47:30] — The sleep chemistry blueprint: melatonin, acetylcholine, GABA, glycine, serotonin & melanin [53:00] — Traditional Chinese Medicine & the body clock: what your wake-up time is actually telling you [57:00] — The complete step-by-step elite sleep protocol: light environment, bedroom setup, nervous system wind-down, supplements & recovery tools [1:03:00] — Labs, tracking, and realistic timelines: what to expect in week 1, week 4 & beyond [1:05:30] — Final thoughts: pick ONE thing to start tonight 🧠 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why the glymphatic system is your brain's overnight waste removal service - and what happens when it failsHow just one poor night of sleep cuts your natural killer cell activity by 70%The hormonal cascade that only happens in deep sleep (and what you lose when you skip it)Why "I'll sleep when I'm dead" is scientifically the fastest way to get there soonerThe exact light protocol - morning, midday, and evening - to anchor your circadian rhythmWhich neurotransmitters and minerals your sleep chemistry depends onThe TCM organ clock and what waking at 1–3am is really signallingA full bedroom environment checklist: temperature, EMF, darkness, air, noise & groundingThe best breathwork techniques, supplements, and wind-down tools to use tonight📌 RESOURCES MENTIONED Oura Ring - sleep trackingBalterra - Use code JORDANDAVEY for your discount. Iris — blue light filtering software for laptopsBlock Blue Light (blockbluelight.com) — blue light bulbs & portable lampsNext Step App — breathwork by Eugene, Jadyen & JamieOthership App — breathwork protocolsChronometer — nutrient tracking appYoga Nidra / NSDR — non-sleep deep rest protocols (free on YouTube)Binaural Beats — Delta & Theta (available on Spotify)iPhone Red Screen Shortcut — Settings → Accessibility → Display & Text Size → Color Filters💊 SUPPLEMENTS DISCUSSED Magnesium glycinate, magnesium threonate, glycine, taurine, inositol, lemon balm, L-theanine, vitamin B6 (P5P), DHA, chamomile, zinc, choline (alpha GPC), methylated B complex, magnesium chloride spray This episode is free for everyone - because sleep is that foundational.
