New Discoveries Of The Week: Cool New Things I'm Trying, Books I'm Reading, And More!
My Son, River's, Very First “Bubbly” NFT
My 13-year-old son River Greenfield is an amazing artist, and for the past year, he has been creating an epic mural on his bedroom wall…
…entitled “Bubbles.”
A piece of “Bubbles” art (or the entire collection of 93 separate pieces of art!) is now available for you to bid on and own as an NFT. An NFT is a piece of digital art that you, and only you, can bid on, own, and trade (just like a baseball card or any art collectible!), but better yet, it is tied to actual value.
What do I mean by that?
Here's how it works: each enchanting and inspiring icon, element, and thematic “bubble” of the Bubbles collection can be owned and collected…
…and on March 19th, any holder of any piece of this NFT collection gets to join in on a 1-hour online Zoom mural-painting instructional class with River Greenfield, not open to the public and only open to owners of a piece of the Bubbles NFT!
Just wait until you see the colorful and creative mural elements that River spent an entire year of his life painting on his bedroom wall. The original art was painted in watercolor markers but is now yours to own in digital format.
So click here to go see the Bubbles collection and to bid on any piece of the collection that catches your fancy! See you there!
How I Use Now Alchemy Elixirs To Level Up My Health And Wellness
A few weeks ago, I let you in on the world of Now Alchemy and why I use them.
To keep a long story short, Now Alchemy is chock full of different potions used for health and wellness, specifically to treat a bunch of different things like pain, headaches, and anxiety.
On top of that, they also have an anti-aging elixir, a formula that helps protect against 5G radiation damage, and they even have organic full-spectrum CBD.
There’s a little bit of everything for everyone.
Alchemy's founder, Archer Love, is one of the only chemists in the world who has been able to develop ways to maximize absorption without using unhealthy and unnecessary chemicals. All of the Now Alchemy elixirs are completely natural, and unparalleled in their delivery to the necessary sites of action.
Now, because there are so many different bundles and tonics at NA, there are some different usage protocols to adhere to depending on which product you’re using. For example, if you’re using the detox elixir, you’d use this while you’re actively eating, adding a few droppers to your water while enjoying your meal. This, in turn, will go and defend you against parasites, candida, and it’s also a great antivirus.
Here’s a full best-use protocol for my all-time favorite Now Alchemy products in case you’re thinking about taking your health and wellness to the next level (use code BENGREENFIELD for 10% off your purchase):

My New Book Endure: Tools, Tactics & Habits For Spiritual Stamina
I recently turned 40, and as a birthday gift from myself to you (because there's no better gift than the gift of giving), I've let you in on my newest book that's coming out in April of next year. It's called Endure: Tools, Tactics & Habits For Spiritual Stamina.
This book is for you if you struggle with temptation and often find yourself succumbing to it; if you get overwhelmed by all the ways you can pray and meditate; if you lay awake at night with your mind racing thinking about the general anxieties of the week; if you want to live an impactful life that inspires others to greatness; and more.
By the conclusion of Endure, you will have discovered and learned how to implement tools, tactics, and habits for spiritual stamina that were inspired by great philosophers, thinkers, and theologians of ancient and modern ages, including Augustine, Plato, the Apostles Paul, Peter and John, the kings David and Solomon, C.S. Lewis, Naval Ravikant, Anthony de Mello, Derek Sivers, Doug Wilson, Randy Alcorn, John Piper, many, many others, and of course, Jesus Christ himself.
Just click here to be the first in line to be notified as soon as Endure: Tools, Tactics & Habits For Spiritual Stamina is ready for release, which is officially happening in April 2022. Thanks for reading, and for putting up with this old 40-year-old curmudgeon's ramblings. :)

Product Of The Week
::: Add 10 Years To Your Life While Saving 10% With Füm :::
Smoking on average shaves off ten years from your lifespan and remains the leading cause of preventable death.
The good news is that quitting cigarettes has an immediate benefit and most harm can be reversed within a few weeks. The bad news? Quitting isn’t easy. The cravings for nicotine, something to puff on, and the oral sensation are all big barriers to quitting.
The truth is, cigarettes often fool us into thinking they’re good for us. You can find yourself thinking they relieve stress when they are often the driver of your stress–that constant need to take a nicotine hit.
The problem with quitting is that most solutions involve nicotine, have other dangerous side effects, or just aren’t that successful *cough* cold turkey *cough*.
That’s where Füm comes in. Füm is an all-natural, nicotine-free, inhaler made in Canada from Canadian Maple. The inhaler uses essential oil-infused Cores studied to curb nicotine cravings by the leading nicotine research lab in America.
It looks good, feels good, fits in your pocket, and you can take it anywhere you might get cravings. The Cores last a long time and they have over a dozen unique flavors that are 100% natural–no artificial flavors.
Not only does the research back it, but they’ve had over 50,000 customers with nearly 5-star reviews across the board from thousands of reviewing customers.
If you or someone you know has tried everything under the kitchen sink to quit, send them to Füm or get them one.
Right now, you can grab the Füm Quit Naturally Pack and get 10% off your order with code BGF.
And if you happen to be skipping the smoke break a few weeks later? You’re welcome.

I Want To Know What You've Got Cooking
I'm so stoked about the positive feedback I've been getting about my new Boundless Cookbook. The cookbook was a labor of love, but I'm really proud of the end result (especially considering I'm definitely not a trained chef).
Now that the Boundless Cookbook is available on Amazon, I have a favor to ask…
If you have the cookbook and you love it, can you hop on over to Amazon and leave a review? Amazon reviews—as I bet you know—are super important. I want your honest feedback and I'll be reading them to hear what you think.
You can leave your review on Amazon right here (and if you don't have a cookbook yet, and you're an Amazon Prime member, you could have your copy at your doorstep as early as tomorrow).
