The ancient philosophy of Stoicism – which teaches to be satisfied with what you have and includes practices like self-denial — has become a trend among Silicon Valley elites. But perhaps no one is more devoted than 42-year-old billionaire Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter and Square.
Dorsey says he aims to meditate one hour in the morning and at night:"I've more or less kept up the practice of two hours ... a day," but"if you can just get 10 minutes, and sometimes that's all I can find, that's what I do." I did my meditation at Dhamma Mahimã in Pyin Oo Lwin. About six months ago, Dorsey decided he needs"a little bit more space to think" so now he works from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays.When Dorsey doesn't walk to work, he does high-intensity intervals on an exercise bike and seven-minute workouts via the app Seven.Three years ago, Dorsey started using saunas and ice baths in the evening. First he sits in his barrel sauna for 15 minutes, then hops into an ice bath for three minutes.
There is some research that near-infrared light may decrease some kinds of pain, according to WebMD. However, at least one study has shown that near infrared radiation could be bad for the skin. Dorsey only eats dinner. Sometime between 6:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. he has a meal of fish, chicken, or steak with a salad, spinach, asparagus or Brussels sprouts. He has mixed berries or some dark chocolate for dessert and also sometimes drinks red wine.
