Vitalis Core
The Vitalis Operating System
Vitalis CORE is your base operating system: a self-guided protocol that shows you how to rebuild energy, sleep, libido and focus by working with your biology, not against it.
You’ll combine modern medicine logic, functional medicine systems thinking and TCM energetics (Qi / Jing / Shen, organ clocks, seasons) into one framework that fits a real adult life — career, family, stress and all.

Is Vitalis CORE for you?
CORE is built for high-functioning adults who are done calling burnout “normal aging.”
​
Vitalis CORE is for you if…
-
You’re 30–65 and others would describe you as “high performing” — but you feel like you’re running on fumes.
-
Your life looks “fine” on paper, but inside you’re patchy: brain buffering, libido flatter than you admit, sleep never truly restorative.
-
Your labs keep coming back “in range” while you feel exhausted, wired, or weirdly numb.
-
You’re tired of random supplements, 6-week challenges and influencer stacks that don’t respect your nervous system.
-
You’re willing to treat your body like a system, not a willpower problem.
​Not for you if…
You want a magic pill, a 1-page “hack” or an excuse to keep sleeping 5 hours and living on caffeine. CORE is a grown-up system. It works if you do.
What you’ll rebuild inside CORE
1
Regulate Your System
Calm the stress axis, smooth your energy and stop living in the stimulant–crash loop. You’ll map how your nervous system, sleep, gut and hormones are actually behaving, then use mushrooms, adaptogens and daily structures to stabilise them.
2
Build Real Capacity
Once the leaks are plugged, CORE shows you how to add strength, muscle, mitochondrial capacity and mental resilience without frying your joints or libido. You’ll use adaptive training guidelines, minimum-viable movement plans and energy-aligned nutrition so you can get stronger while still having a life.
3
Design Your Daily Architecture
You’ll work with practices and protocols that are designed to reduce fog, flatten the emotional spikes and create more mental space, so you can show up to your work, training and spiritual life with a clearer mind and more bandwidth.
What’s inside the CORE manual
A 12-chapter, self-guided protocol that you can run for 30–90 days at a time.
​
Inside, you’ll find:
-
The real story of burnout — why “labs in range” doesn’t mean you’re fine, and how modern medicine, functional medicine and TCM are all describing the same crash pattern from different angles.
-
Energy Is Earned — a deep dive into the stimulant loop, energy leaks and why you don’t have an “energy problem”, you have a system regulation problem.
-
Medicinal Mushrooms & Adaptogens — how Reishi, Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps and key adaptogens support Qi, Jing, Shen and mitochondria, immunity and stress resilience. Used as tools, not crutches.
-
The Daily Skeleton — a simple AM–PM rhythm (light, food, movement, nervous system resets, sleep) you can follow without an app.
-
Archetypes & Stacks — practical guidance for different starting points (burned-out professional, sensitive system, sedentary, hormonal comeback) with example stack logic, not one-size-fits-all prescriptions.
-
Adaptive Training Framework — strength and conditioning rules that respect recovery, libido and life stress, including “minimum viable movement” plans for chaos weeks.
-
Longevity Nutrition Framework — not a 1200-calorie shred plan, but clear rules for protein, carbs, fats, timing and seasonal tweaks that support hormones, mitochondria and digestion.
-
Seasonal & Nervous System Protocols — how to shift gears across Spring / Summer / Autumn / Winter so you stop fighting your biology and start working with it.
-
One-Page Quick Start & Cheat Sheets — “I’m busy, just tell me what to do” summaries so you can run the protocol without re-reading the whole book every time.
​
You can move through CORE in a focused sprint, or weave it into your weeks alongside your existing practices. You stay in charge of the pace.
Everything in CORE is educational, not medical advice. You’ll see clear notes on when to loop in your GP or a functional/integrative practitioner if symptoms or meds are in the mix
How to run CORE in real life
-
Treat CORE as a 30–90 day operating cycle, not a weekend read.
-
Start with the Daily Skeleton, then layer in stacks, training and seasonal tweaks as your system stabilises.
-
Track only a few metrics: sleep quality, daytime energy, mood, libido and output.
-
When life gets heavy, drop back to the minimum-viable training and rhythm instead of quitting.
