Our path to wellness
Intuitve Biohacking is a platform for wellness created by a team of women who are willing to explore non-traditional approaches to improve their quality of life and are keen to pass on these findings to others, with the hope that they will also experience positive outcomes.
We’re a close-knit group who have found that by stepping away from typical advice, we've been able to enhance our mental health, physical well-being, and overall quality of life. We’re not medical experts, and we’re not offering medical advice. Instead, we’re sharing our personal experiments—what we like to call our “science experiments”—in the hope that our experiences might inspire or help others on similar journeys.

Nicole’s Journey: From Self-Doubt to Self-Love
Hi, I’m Nicole. I never thought I’d be sharing my personal story like this, but here I am. For a long time, I felt like I was just drifting through life. Extra pounds and a heavy load of self-doubt weighed me down. My reflection in the mirror was a constant reminder of how disconnected I felt from myself. It wasn’t just about the numbers on a scale or the size of my clothes—it was a deep-seated sense of inadequacy that permeated every aspect of my life.
At 25, I was struggling with severe back pain, hair loss, troubled skin, and debilitating anxiety. I tried everything I was “supposed” to do—seeing doctors, following their advice, taking birth control, and using over-the-counter pain medications. I experimented with every diet imaginable, but nothing seemed to work.
Two years ago, feeling dissatisfied with my lifestyle, I chose to start exercising. I shared my fitness journey with my best friend, who also served as my boss. Being passionate about health and wellness, she suggested, or maybe asserted that I work out with her if I wanted to actually get results. However, she displayed an intense approach at the gym (and possibly elsewhere) and took on the role of guiding me not only in fitness but in all aspects of life. I was genuinely scared of her rigorous workout and life transformation plans - I admit, I shed tears in every session for the initial five months. Nevertheless, I persevered and continued returning for more.
This journey led us to explore a range of wellness practices: cryotherapy, red light therapy, infrared saunas, magnesium float tanks, and even 72-hour water fasts. I was fully immersed in the world of wellness and “biohacking.” It was tough initially, but after a few months, I genuinely began to enjoy these practices, including eating organic food and tracking my macronutrients.
My hair is looking fab and my skin is glowing! I feel less stressed and more energized, both physically and mentally. But let's keep it real, I'm a work in progress, and right now I'm all about embracing self-love!
When my friends asked me to contribute to this wellness blog, I wasn’t thrilled at first. But I understand their true aim is to help others like me and share the incredible things we’ve achieved and will continue to achieve. If you’re looking for a fun, lighthearted space to explore a more balanced, healthy, and peaceful life through sometimes unconventional activities, you’ve found the right place.
