Dr Julia Jones has over thirty years of experience in psychology, neuroscience, and behaviour. She focuses on habits, their difficulty to change, and their impact on mental and physical health. Julia has developed practical strategies and businesses to help individuals implement simple changes that significantly improve their lives.
Her interest in biohacking began in the 1990s during a visit to a US Navy SEALs base in California, where she learned about the effects of music on anxiety, endurance, and sleep. As a sport and exercise scientist, as well as a musician and DJ, she delved into the science behind behaviours. Her research expanded to include the effects of daylight exposure, timed eating, fasting, cold showers, and breathwork on health and performance. Julia has worked with the GB Olympic team, NHS dementia projects, business leaders, and award-winning artists.
Julia has investigated why, despite the diet and fitness industry's growth over the past fifty years, waistlines and related health issues have also increased. She distilled her findings into three habit-hacks that influence the circadian/sleep cycle, gut-brain axis, and stress response.
In her Health Trilogy books, Julia aims to raise awareness of new scientific research and the effectiveness of simple, science-based habits. The series began with The Music Diet, highlighting the power of music as a biohack. The second book, Neuron, laid the groundwork for her wellness startup, Holidity, and her flagship programme, The 90-Day Reset. The final book, F-Bomb, explored the science of longevity and received media attention, including a front-page mention in The Times.
Julia has also launched innovative products like Hack, a prebiotic coffee, and Music Hacks, a collaboration with Universal Music. Her Dr Julia Jones Live show and Biohacking Bootcamps combine science, entertainment, and interactivity to explain complex concepts. She is working with organisations to integrate cutting-edge epigenetic science into employee wellness programmes.
