Beyond the Frequency 369 Podcast 1: MikeyBreathes on Eating Every 70 Days, Expansion, and Rewriting the Rules of Health

In this episode of Beyond the Frequency 369, host Caesar Pagan sits down with MikeyBreathes, an “expansionist” whose entire life challenges what we think we know about food, fitness, aging, and human potential. From only eating once every 70 days to traveling the world to “unlock” different parts of his brain, Mikey shares how he moved from being an overweight, constantly dieting kid to living in a state of high energy, clarity, and deep inner guidance without the gym, strict diets, or supplements a lifestyle he now maps out inside his Life Guide.

Here is the breakdown.

Who Is MikeyBreathes and What Is an Expansionist?

Caesar introduces Mikey as someone who doesn’t work out and only eats every 70 days, all based on a process he refined over years and distilled into his book, The Guide. Mikey describes himself not as a “breatharian” but as an expansionist, someone devoted to expanding their energetic field and consciousness so deeply that they can feel and sense life across vast distances, even “a pin drop in another country.”

For Mikey, everything in the universe is either expanding (living) or contracting (dying), and humans are here to keep expanding awareness, sensitivity, and energetic capacity. He believes most limits people experience are not genetic defects but suppressed gene expressions, shaped by environment, chemistry, and choices.

World Travel as Brain Activation

Mikey has been traveling continuously for about five years, moving through almost every U.S. state, Central America, most of South America, Southeast Asia, and now East Asia, including Korea and soon Mongolia. He says each place carries its own “geometry” and resonance, and simply being in that field unlocks different parts of the brain and forms of creativity.

He shares a story of staying in a vacation home where he suddenly became obsessed with engineering and rockets, only to later discover the owner was an engineer living next to a rocket training facility with an actual missile in his garage. That experience convinced Mikey that, if you are internally clear, you begin to “pick up” the resonance of a place by osmosis, and he now travels intentionally to unlock as many dormant potentials as possible.

Eating Every 70 Days: Energy, Not Willpower

Although the headline sounds extreme, Mikey emphasizes that his intention was never “to go 70 days without food.” He started with one meal a day, gradually extending the gap between meals as his body healed, became more efficient, and stopped feeling hunger in the usual way.

Key points he makes about his eating pattern:
✔️ He is not “fasting” with willpower; he insists he simply isn’t hungry.
✔️ He is optimized and precise about his timing of eating.
✔️ Because he has reduced “energy waste” in his body and life, a single meal sustains him far longer than it would someone full of internal confusion, fear, and toxic inputs.
✔️ The extra free time and mental clarity let him observe life more deeply and become more receptive to subtle signals from his environment.

Mikey often goes 70+ days without eating and reports feeling “supercharged,” more sensitive, and more spiritually open in that state. The principles behind this shift: less waste, more regeneration, and different relationships to hunger are outlined in practical form in The Guide.

The Myth of “Bad Genes” and Why He Doesn’t Work Out

Mikey explains that most people are not limited by “bad genetics” but by suppressed genes. He points out that from birth to adolescence, humans build muscle, bone strength, and structure without deliberate workouts, proving the body knows how to grow by default when conditions support it.

According to him, modern life is full of gene suppressors: synthetic fragrances, detergents, personal care products, processed foods, indoor chemicals, and environmental toxins that quietly block healthy expression and push the body into swelling, dysfunction, and early aging.

Instead of gym routines, Mikey focuses on:
✔️ Removing suppressive chemicals from his environment.
✔️ Aligning with natural inputs: sunlight, fresh air, real water, wild plants, resins, earth materials like pot ash, and diverse natural foods.
✔️ Positioning himself in locations and spaces that activate the kinds of expression he wants (strength, leanness, clarity, vitality).

He says he has not worked out in 5 years (at the time of this recording), yet his muscles have grown and his body composition improved, while his wrinkles and gray hairs have decreased and he looks younger now in his mid‑30s than he did in his 20s. For readers who want to apply this without guessing, The Guide lays out specific lifestyle levers to reduce suppression and let natural expression come back online.

Toxins, Smell, and Why You “Shouldn’t Need” Deodorant

Mikey is blunt about synthetic personal-care products: colognes, deodorants, shampoos, lotions, detergents, and room sprays. He argues these lab-made “unstable” substances suppress beneficial genes, weaken immunity, promote bacterial overgrowth and disease, and interfere with natural attraction and bonding.

He reframes body odor as a diagnostic tool rather than something to hide:
✔️ Unpleasant smells are the body’s “x-ray,” pointing to organ stress or dysfunction (e.g., liver, kidneys, colon) without the need for scans.
✔️ Masking odor with products hides warning signs and allows issues to progress into more serious disease.
✔️ As internal health improves, people stop emitting harsh odors and instead develop a naturally pleasant scent that can even act as an aphrodisiac for partners.

In his own lifestyle, he reports not needing conventional deodorant and being told by his partners that he smells naturally attractive when healthy. 

Food as Frequency: Eating for the State You Want to Live In

When talking about food, Mikey shifts the conversation away from calories and macros to energy and state. He tells his community that food is not “good” or “bad” in isolation; what matters is whether it supports the state of consciousness and energy you want to occupy.

He gives an example of a community member who felt a sharp decline after eating a shawarma following a period on Mikey’s recommended foods. To Mikey, the discomfort wasn’t proof that the shawarma was intrinsically evil; it was the “inertia of falling” from a higher state to a lower one.

His core message:
✔️ You eat to inhabit a specific energetic space.
✔️ High-energy, natural foods support higher awareness and manifestation.
✔️ Low-energy, processed or synthetic inputs pull you down from those states.
✔️ When you see yourself as “jet fuel” for a higher level of existence, you naturally become more selective, not out of restriction but out of respect for the state you want to live in.

The Guide translates this philosophy into concrete food suggestions and patterns, so everyone can align their plate with the state they want to live in, not just a number on a scale.

The Guide: A Manual for the Harmonic State

Mikey’s book The Guide is presented as a living manual for a regeneration-based lifestyle rather than a fixed diet plan. Inside, he includes:
✔️ Methods for removing toxins and suppressors from daily life.
✔️ Suggestions for eating “vitamin A through mineral zinc” via diverse, natural sources.
✔️ Practices to access what he calls the harmonic state, a mode where emotions stabilize, energy is abundant, hunger diminishes, and life feels coherent rather than chaotic.

He shares that people who follow this path have reported weight loss, muscle gain, hair regrowth, changes in eye color, reduced wrinkles, relief from conditions like PCOS, scoliosis improvements, and clearer lab results. The intention is not to give a rigid protocol, but to offer a structure you can keep coming back to as your body and awareness change.

Practical Advice for Someone Struggling with Weight

When Caesar asks what someone should do right after finishing the episode if they struggle with weight, Mikey offers three core shifts:

1. Stop making “weight loss” the goal
Framing your body as an enemy you must fight makes the process heavy and painful. Instead, aim to live a more alive, efficient life; the weight will adjust as a side effect.

2. Recognize your body’s intelligence
Extra weight is not random laziness or failure; it is a purposeful response, often swelling related to underlying damage or stress.

3. Look for sources of damage, not just excess calories
He encourages people to scan for chemicals, sprays, processed foods, and other harmful inputs in their environment and reduce them, rather than only restricting portions. In his experience, once damage stops, the body naturally releases excess weight even when people eat until they are satisfied on nutrient-rich foods.

For anyone wanting a starting map instead of piecing this together alone, these principles are organized into clear steps inside The Guide.

Inner Voice, Responsibility, and Creating Your Reality

A recurring theme is Mikey’s relationship with his inner guidance. He says he has always had an inner voice offering more efficient paths, but for years he ignored it in favor of conventional ideas about diet and hard work. Injury and exhaustion finally forced him to listen, and following that guidance led to a radically easier, more aligned way of living.

He also shares a perspective that can be confronting: that at some deep level, we participate in or “want” the experiences we have, including painful ones, because our energy and agreements help create those situations. This isn’t about blame but about reclaiming agency; if our energy helped build our current reality, it can also build a different one. A big part of The Guide is helping people reconnect with that inner voice so their choices, environment, and body start working in the same direction.
