Featured On ESPN 30 For 30: 7 Reasons High Performers Keep This PhD’s Pocket Device On Them
Calm in as little as 30 seconds. Used by 60,000+ people, pro athletes and first responders.
It Was Built By A PhD Featured On ESPN 30 For 30.
I wanted to be a professional golfer. But whenever I played under pressure, my heart was in my throat. I couldn’t breathe. My vision went blurry. Performance anxiety ended that dream. So I spent eight years studying biomedical engineering to learn how to calm my own nervous system. My work on high-dose vagus nerve stimulation was later featured on ESPN 30 for 30.
It Works On The Wire Between Your Brain And Your Body.
The vagus nerve is like a physical wire that connects your brain to your body. It carries signals to your heart, lungs and gut that tell your body it’s safe to relax. Constant daily stress keeps that signal quiet. The Hoolest Mini is built to switch it back on.
Calm In As Little As 30 Seconds.
Rest the two pre-gelled tips just below your earlobe, behind your jaw, and take three deep, slow breaths. That’s about 30 seconds. Then remove it. If you feel OK, perfect. If not, move it to the other side of your neck for another three full breaths. For the deepest, longest-lasting effects, do three full breath cycles on each side of your neck, twice. That’s about 2 minutes total.
“Easy to use and calming”
The Research Is Real.
In Hoolest’s own studies, heart rate variability rose 31% with Hoolest stimulation, compared with 0% on a sham device, and state anxiety dropped 36% after a single 10-minute session, compared with 18% in the comparison group. In a real-world survey of more than 1,000 first responders, 94% said they felt calmer after a single use. Side effects were no more common than with a sham device.
Pros And Practitioners
Use It.
After ESPN 30 for 30 featured my research, the U.S. Men’s National Soccer Team, MLB teams, NFL teams and the UFC started using our products. Working with the Carrick Institute for Functional Neurology led to 1,000+ functional medicine practitioners recommending our technology. We also work with first responder recovery groups like the Recharge Room, and addiction recovery groups like Crossroad Recovery. Today, 60,000+ people use Hoolest.
No Meditation App. No Quiet Room. No 30 Minutes You Don’t Have.Picture Two Versions Of The Same Life
Picture your friend living the same life as you. Pressure hits at work, they step aside, place the Hoolest Mini below the ear, take three slow breaths and reset. Pocket, neck, done. One mode, plus and minus to set a comfortable level, and pre-gelled tips with no messy gel paste. Who do you think performs better at work? Who shows up as the best version of themselves for their family?
I want the answer to be you.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does it work?
The Hoolest Mini sends gentle stimulation along the vagus nerve through two pre-gelled tips. It helps calm and ease everyday stress, with calm in as little as 30 seconds.
Where do I place it?
Rest the gel tips just below your earlobe, behind the jaw, on the side of your neck.
How long is a session?
Start with about 30 seconds on one side: take three deep, slow breaths, then remove it. If you feel OK, perfect. If not, move it to the other side for another three full breaths. For the deepest, longest-lasting effects, do three full breath cycles on each side of your neck, twice. That’s about 2 minutes total.
Do I need an app or a subscription?
No app, and no required subscription or membership. The only ongoing cost is replacement gel tips. Buy them when you need them, or choose an optional refill plan that ships on a schedule.
What are the gel tips?
They’re the two small pre-gelled pads on the end of the Mini that touch your skin. They’re made from a soft, cosmetic-grade, non-toxic material, certified to ISO 10993 skin sensitization and cytotoxicity standards. Just remove the cap and press. There’s no gel paste to spread, no water and no cleanup. Your Mini comes with 2 pairs (4 gel tips).
How long do they last?
Each pair lasts up to 2 weeks or about 20 uses, whichever comes first. Like a razor, they get dull with use, so swap in a fresh pair to keep the Mini working at full strength.
How much do they cost long-term?
About $4 a pair with the 12 Month Supply (24 pairs for $99). At a fresh pair every 2 weeks, that’s roughly 30 cents a day.
What’s in the box?
Your Hoolest Mini, 2 pairs of pre-gelled tips (4 gel tips) and a charging cable.
When does it ship?
Order today and we’ll ship it out tomorrow (excluding weekends and holidays), with free standard shipping in the U.S.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. You’re covered by our 30-day money-back guarantee, which starts the day your Mini is delivered.
