Whole30 began as a dietary experiment: For 30 days, Melissa Urban went without grains, dairy, legumes, alcohol and added sugar. She was trying to address several health problems, and the results were so extraordinary that she decided to share the diet with others. What followed was a blog, a series of seminars, a best-selling book and eventually a wide-ranging wellness brand that's helped millions of people identify the best diet for their own body. But in 2015, Melissa had to rethink everything—even her own name—when she split up with her husband and business partner, Dallas Hartwig. She retained ownership of the business, and today, the “Whole30 Approved” logo appears on a range of brands, from La Croix water to Chipotle salad bowls.

How do you build a healthy, connected, and intentional life that fulfills your greatest purpose? In this episode, Caroline Fausel shares how it all started. She talks about her journey, how she became an intentionalist and why she created this podcast.  A voracious reader herself, Caroline also shares some books that have changed her life and shaped her aspiration for intentionalism in all aspects of her life. For instance, the book “Eating Animals” by Jonathan Safran Foer heavily influenced her to become vegetarian. She thought it was a good way to bio-hack her genetics and keep certain diseases at bay. Learning about factory farming and what's in our food also sparked her passion for the environment. She believes that while individual action is not enough to turn the entire environment around, it's definitely a huge part of it, and it's something she could do.  Eventually, upon reading “It Starts with Food” by Melissa and Dallas Hartwig, which talks about nutrition science, she went straight from vegan to the paleo-based Whole30 diet, which she and her husband, Chaz, did for 30 days. It was an intense time but they felt better than ever and they became more intentional about what they were eating. And so, the book is what started it all for her – the lifestyle, the blog, and this podcast.  In this episode, Caroline shares how becoming intentional has dramatically changed the way she lives her life – as a wife, as a mother, and as a human being. In this episode, you will hear: Books on nutrition Books on minimalism Books on marriage Books on parenting Books on personal growth and development Subscribe and Review Have you subscribed to our podcast?

Dr Gabriel Niles, MD has travelled many roads in his search for the ideal model of healing and flourishing. Prior to his training as a Medical Doctor at USC School of Medicine, he studied Traditional Chinese Medicine in Shanghai, China. He has organized and led multiple Circle of Healers retreats with the American Medical Student Association as a medical student, seeking to integrate the wisdom of healing traditions with modern medical science. In recent years, Dr Niles has been integrating the insights and benefits of Functional Medicine into his medical practice while remaining committed to keeping medical care affordable for his patients.  For this podcast, I caught up with Gabe after the Ancestral Health Symposium in Los Angeles to discuss his integration of Functional Medicine into a mainstream bill-to-insurance medical practice. We talk about areas where his approach differs from that of other family physicians, including his favouring of lifestyle changes over-reliance on pharmaceuticals. He also explains why he has continued working within the conventional medical system, despite rejecting the big-pharma controlled dis-ease model of medical “care”.

On today’s podcast, Dallas Hartwig and I dig into what the world needs most from men right now. As an Enneagram type 4, The Individualist, Dallas tends to be on a lifelong mission to find himself and we dive deep into his journey. Dallas is the co-author of two New York Times bestselling books, Whole 30 and It Starts with Food. In his latest book, The 4 Season Solution, Dallas lays out the groundbreaking plan for feeling better, living well, and powering down our always-on lives. Our conversation begins with his journey from being passionate about fitness and nutrition to raising his son with intention in a time when boys need initiation into manhood more than ever. His mission in life is to share how to make healthy lifestyle choices in this crazy world and I couldn’t be more on board with his passion for sharing the importance of nutrition. Digging into his Enneagram personality type, we begin to understand how fluidly we can experience life through the heart of an Individualist. He shares a deep story of how he can relate to my experience as a Challenger because of an overbearing mother. I also truly value Dallas’s perspective on attachment styles as it pertains to the immature masculine energy, of which I can deeply resonate to his share. So sit back, grab a pen and paper, and take thoughtful notes on this intense conversation with Dallas Hartwig, father, speaker, and leader. If his message resonated with you today, please connect with him on Instagram @dallashartwig

This week Dr. Axe is joined by physical therapist, sports nutritionist, and best-selling author, Dallas Hartwig. Dallas is the co-founder of the Whole 30 program and has recently released a book titled The 4 Season Solution, in which he shares the keys to living well. Tune into learn about the importance of circadian clocks in optimizing sleep, how to use food as medicine seasonally, and how social isolation can create a chronic stress response. Dallas also shares encouragement on how we can slow down during changing seasons to create more balance throughout our lives.

I’ve been eagerly awaiting for my dear friend Pilar Gerasimo to write a book that captures her wisdom on how to Optimize our lives and give the world all we’ve got. And... The wait is over! Pilar is one of the wisest people I know. Among many other things, she created Experience Life magazine (which currently reaches over 3 million people per year) and is the co-host of the Living Experiment podcast with Dallas Hartwig (co-founder of Whole30). The lead quote for this book perfectly captures the thesis of the book. It’s from Jiddu Krishnamurti. He tells us: “It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” Yep. That’s about right. In a society in which the VAST majority of us are sick and tired and anxious and depressed and, well, blah... IT IS NO MEASURE OF HEALTH TO BE WELL ADJUSTED TO THAT SICK SOCIETY. (Right?) Enter: The Healthy Deviant. This “Rule Breaker’s Guide" is packed with Big Ideas on how we can "Be Healthy in an Unhealthy World.”

Is it time we relearned to live in sync with the natural world? My guest this week asserts that, instead of sticking to the same habits and behaviours, year round, we should change with the seasons, as our ancestors did. Dallas Hartwig, co-author of The Whole-30 and nutritionist explains that how we eat, sleep, exercise and connect to the world in January should be different to how we do those things in July. It makes sense, doesn’t it? Intuitively, that sounds right. Yet how many of us consciously live by this, and allow ourselves to feel differently and act differently according to the season?In his new book, The Four Season Solution, Dallas theorises that our disconnection from our natural cycles is at the core of the modern-day stress epidemic and most chronic disease. We wake before dawn, stay up long after dusk, live with artificial lighting, heating and air con. We eat unseasonal food, flown across the globe, and use stimulants like sugar, caffeine and alcohol, which further disrupt our circadian rhythms. During our chat, Dallas shares some game-changing ideas that I think explain lots of the current debates in nutrition, fitness and wellness – especially when it comes to explaining why different diets work for different people, and at different times. This is an eye-opening conversation that will really make you re-assess your lifestyle – I hope you enjoy it!Show notes available at drchatterjee.com/102Follow me on instagram.com/drchatterjee/Follow me on facebook.com/DrChatterjee/Follow me on twitter.com/drchatterjeeukDISCLAIMER: The content in the podcast and on this webpage is not intended to constitute or be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Host Cyrus Webb welcomes bestselling author Dallas Hartwig to #ConversationsLIVE to discuss his new book THE 4 SEASON SOLUTION: The Groundbreaking New Plan for Feeling Better, Living Well, and Powering Down Our Always-On Lives. 

Welcome to the Evolution of Medicine podcast! In this episode, James sits down with Dallas Hartwig, who you’ll recognize as the co-founder of the Whole30 program and co-author of two bestselling books, It Starts with Food and The Whole30. He joins us on the podcast for the first time to talk about his upcoming book, The 4 Season Solution, and explore the fascinating role of seasons, starting inside the cell and emerging all the way through to the seasons of our lives. I think this book is really going to impact the future of our entire industry, especially regarding nutrition. This conversation with Dallas became one of my favorite podcast episodes ever, and I think you’re going to really enjoy it. Highlights include: The natural expansion and contraction cycles and how they are relevant to you and your practice, and to medicine in general How Dallas’s new book, The 4 Season Solution, could kill the diet book industry and help us rethink diet and nutrition education The concept of “chronic summer” and why it is so important to overall health and wellness How we can shift perception of change from loss to evidence of progression as we move through seasons of life Why conversations about patients’ seasons of life need to be happening in functional medicine practices to help practitioners get to the root cause of health issues And so much more!

We currently live in a society where chronic illness, obesity, drug dependence, anxiety, and depression are rapidly becoming the prevailing norms. According to the CDC, more than half of U.S. adults have been diagnosed with a chronic disease. 68% are overweight or obese, 70% are taking at least one prescription drug, and 97% are not managing to maintain four of the most basic habits required for long-term health: decent nutrition, adequate exercise, not smoking, and maintaining a healthy body composition.On today’s Broken Brain Podcast, our host, Dhru, talks to Pilar Gerasimo, an award-winning health journalist, pioneering social explorer, and author of, The Healthy Deviant: A Rule-Breaker’s Guide to Being Healthy in an Unhealthy World.

Just about a year ago, I participated in a social media fast. I logged out of Instagram (and Facebook) and didn’t log back in for more than 10 days. Today I’m sharing what I learned and what I’m doing to stay focused on more uplifting social interaction—AND less drawn in by the distracting elements of instagram. I started taking notes for today’s show when I listened to THIS PODCAST episode, where Dhru Purohit interviews Dallas Hartwig, the co-creator of Whole30. Dallas leads a 4-week program designed to help you change your relationship with media and technology to create more meaningful social interactions—he has also written a book, due out March 2020. You can learn more on Amazon. Photo by ROBIN WORRALL on Unsplash Here are my practical tips for approaching social media with intention …1. Schedule specific days and times when you will allow yourself to scroll social. 2. Turn off all notifications. This is an easy one!3. Before you get on, fill in the blank, “I am hopping on to _____________.”4. If your answer to the above statement is “scroll or catch up” then make sure you are actually engaging with people, by reading posts and thoughtfully commenting. I try to leave three comments each time I get on.5. Be very careful about who you follow and remember that you are not obligated to follow anyone. Just because you work with them, live next door to them, know them, purchase products from them—you don’t need to follow them—especially if how they show up on social media creates thoughts and feelings that do not serve YOU well. 6. This tip is probably most important of all—practice creating nourishing (in person) interaction on a regular basis and model this for your children. Help them make plans to bring people together and then teach them how to prepare and enjoy that experience. Here are some additional resources that I’ve enjoyed:This TED talk by Tristan Harris. I really like the idea of bringing choice back into our relationship with technology—and specifically with social media platforms. I’m currently listening to Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport. I’m not far enough along to fully understand my takeaway, but I’m super grateful that there are resources available to help us understand how technology and digital algorithms that are governing our attention. Ultimately this episode celebrates a personal milestone for me where I’m beginning to feel confident and at peace with my social media position—I’ve spent the last year paying closer attention and abiding by these pretty specific rails that I have put in place. By far, the most powerful thing I’ve done is limit the days and times that I get on to scroll or share. This has allowed me to get clearer about WHY I’m on at all—I’ll be consolidating my three IG accounts into one, so that I can do a better job of promoting ideas and projects I care most about without giving in to the doubt, comparison and distraction that pulls me away from personal productivity. As always, I’d LOVE to hear your thoughts and feedback—here in the comments section or via the SpeakPipe button (see my sidebar), email stacy@stacyjulian.com or on my (now only) Instagram account, @stacyjulian — thank YOU for listening.

  Today on the show we have the self described “pragmatic, scientific explorer” and cofounder of Whole30, Dallas Hartwig.  Dallas speaks to us today (on video!) about the developmental process of the Whole30 lifestyle and how through the exploration of self, and identifying the places in your own life that keep you from feeling good, you can grow to new heights in both life and business.   What You Will Learn On This Episode The Accidental Creation of Whole30 Chocolate Indulgence as a Metaphor For Life More Social Less Media Examining The Things In Your Life That Don't Make You Feel “good”   Links and Resources Mentioned in this Episode Website Facebook Books   Transcription Kyle Gray: Hello, and welcome to The Story Engine podcast. My name is Kyle Gray, and we have a really special podcast today. We're doing a video podcast and we even have a live audience. We've got an amazing guest with us today, Dallas Hartwig. Thank you so much for joining us.   Dallas Hartwig: Thank you for having me.   Kyle Gray: So Dallas, you, to introduce yourself properly is really difficult because you've done a lot of different things. You have many different interests and many different skills. How do you introduce yourself these days? How do you present the full picture of Dallas Hartwig?   Dallas Hartwig: Is the hardest question of the whole thing?   Kyle Gray: I think so.   Dallas Hartwig: Because that is a hard question.   Kyle Gray: I think so, yeah.   Dallas Hartwig: How do I...I'm an explorer. I'm the guy who is interested in figuring out how to live well in a really weird and messed up world. And so I kind of take my experiences and thoughts and research, and occasionally insights, and share that with people in a variety of different ways, sometimes books, podcasts, interviews like this, rambling Instagram posts. But my background is anatomy and physiology. And I'm kind of a science research guy, but then quickly lose interest in the really, really granular stuff when it's hard to connect to the real world. And so I'm a pragmatist in that sense too. I'm like, "Let's look at the research, let's make this make good sense from a solid, rational standpoint, but then let's quickly drag it over into the real world and figure out how do we apply this." So I'm a pragmatic, scientific explorer.   Kyle Gray: And will you tell me a story about a moment in your life that has really defined this path for you, how you've discovered these talents and these perspectives, and maybe that set you on this journey?   Dallas Hartwig: The questions are getting harder actually.   Kyle Gray: Uh-oh.   Dallas Hartwig: No. I mean I think that one of the experiences for me that sort of has defined that aspect of this part of my professional life certainly was the kind of accidental experience of co-founding the Whole30 program. And I say kind of accidental in the sense that what really happened was my former partner and I did some personal experimentation on ourselves back in 2008, 2009 and started tinkering with different dietary approaches to see how we felt, how it affected mood, sleep, athletic performance, et cetera.   Dallas Hartwig: And it was trial and error. It was tinkering. It was playing around with stuff. And then it became playing around with stuff in the public eye. And then it became playing around with stuff and tweaking the program and watching the results. And it was fairly sort of soft science. It was fairly sort of soft science. It was fairly sort of subjective and observational. But it very quickly iterated into something that became a really powerful tool for people. And so that idea of that approach of having an idea that something might be powerful and then just trying it out.   Dallas Hartwig: And I mean the Whole30 program is about food, but ultimately it's a metaphor for living more broadly in the way that you take something that sounds like it might be useful, take something that if you're not sure what's going on with life and things don't feel quite right, you have to change something. And I'm a big fan of Occam's razor. So if you don't know what it is that doesn't feel right or you don't know what the cause of your problem is, guess. Guess the thing that looks proximate and reasonable, and ticker with it. And often, the thing that you have that gut sense is the root of the thing often is.   Kyle Gray: So let's talk about food, and specifically my favorite food. Which when I hear your name, this phrase pops into my head. And it's, "Don't chew your chocolate," which is something... Yeah, this is something a mutual friend of ours mentioned about you right away. There's such a cool and profound lesson behind this. Can you tell me about why people should not chew their chocolate?   Dallas Hartwig: It's so funny that you mention that. That was the first exchange that I had with this friend of ours, probably about a decade ago. And the question or kind of the comment or the discussion was around how much chocolate can you have. And the context was making nutrition recommendations to people and people being like, "Well, how much do I do this? How do I know? How many calories? How many grams? How many servings? How much?" And chocolate's one of those things where I think it's neither good nor bad. I think it's a food like anything else that has implications. And so it's not a function of good or bad, it's a function of what are the natural consequences here.   Dallas Hartwig: So the natural consequences are also proportionate to how much you eat. And so the question was, "Well, how much can I have?" And I was like, "Well,"... It was sort of an offhand remark but it was something that later kind of stuck with me, and stuck with you apparently. But the answer to the how much can you have is you can have as much as you want, as long as you never chew it. And the thought process there was twofold. One, just pragmatically, it's hard to overeat chocolate when you have to let it melt in your mouth. It goes slow. Right? Especially if you've got a really good quality, rich, dark chocolate, it melts slowly. And the intensity of the experience and the richness of the flavors that open up as you let it melt in your mouth are really rich and satiating, and often include the natural, built-in sort of checks and balances to overconsumption. So there's the piece, the obvious piece of it's hard to over consume chocolate when you have to let it melt in your mouth.   Dallas Hartwig: But then there's the kind of, and I think what you're getting at here is the larger piece of to what extent does the experience of, in this case, eating, influence and how much should that guide the way you live in general. And so the other layer to that then is letting the experience regulate itself, letting the natural biological, psychological experience become its own experience and become its own way to navigate. "How do I live in this world? Well, I pay attention and I let the built-in mechanisms speak for themselves." But I really have to listen. And whether it's talking about satiation with food or it's talking about how much sleep you need to get, but really tuning into being like, "What does my body need? What feels deeply good and rich for me?" And sometimes you don't know that till you really slow down and pay attention.   Kyle Gray: I like this. And there is a connection here between kind of chocolate and sugar and consumption with food. It mirrors a lot of what you talk about. You have a program and a training called More Social, Less Media where I feel like social media, like chocolate and our phones and our devices in the internet age, it's brain sugar and it can be really addictive and just hook us in. And we can, like you say, just eat a whole bar of social media chocolate without even thinking about it. What would the don't chew your chocolate approach to technology and many of the fun bells and whistles that we're all engaged with these days look like?   Dallas Hartwig: That's a super good question. What's the built-in check and balance? I think that the comparison there is really, really good, the social media candy bar kind of thing. Because really what's happening is we have something that is justifiable, either as it's social engagement or it's building my business or it's entertainment. There's lots of reasons we can give to other people, and especially ourselves, why social media or chocolate, or any other thing, any other experience, is totally okay. And I think the important part is removing the morality aspect of it, the self-judgment, the right/wrong, good/bad piece of it. Because there's nothing morally good or bad about eating chocolate. And there's nothing morally good or bad about using social media.   Dallas Hartwig: But I think what happens is that the way these products and services are often designed is they're often designed sometimes explicitly to obscure the natural effects from ourselves. Or, if that's not the case, we're more than willing to turn a blind eye to the natural effects on ourselves because we like how it feels. So we build in opportunities to use or consume the thing more often than it's probably helpful for us. So I think to me it's difficult... And of course one of the things with the you have to let the chocolate dissolve in your mouth piece is it slows you way down. You can't do it mindlessly, it's effectively a mindfulness exercise. So in slowing down and paying attention, what you can notice is, "Oh, I've had two squares of dark chocolate. I don't actually want more. I don't want more." And you can just literally ask, "Do I want more?" And you're like, "Actually, I don't." And it's an easy answer. It's an easy solution.   Dallas Hartwig: And I think there's probably something similar there with social media consumption as well. And the question might be there, "Does this still feel good for me?" Good, capital G, settling, meaningful, does this enrich my life? But you have to slow down to be able to ask and answer that question.   Kyle Gray: I think one of the big things behind it is with a new social media, a new technology is usually it's like there's something that gets us in and gets us hooked. "I want to stay in touch with my friends in different countries...   Dallas Hartwig: Totally.   Kyle Gray: ... or from college." But the reason that we usually sign up for these things isn't always the reason that we stay scrolling. I think that's what you mean by the natural effects of what happens here.   Dallas Hartwig: Right.   Kyle Gray: And so one of the things I've been considering and working on is really getting clear, even writing down what is the purpose for me for using this tool.   Dallas Hartwig: Right.   Kyle Gray: It doesn't have to just be social media, but once you're clear on how you use those or the real benefit that it derives to you, then it's easier to kind of set the boundaries.   Dallas Hartwig: Yeah, I think, to your point about the real benefit, I think the deeper the hooks are set, the harder it is to see the real benefit. I think that what happens is we start to create compelling stories, compelling narratives for ourselves about the real benefits. Because when I really drill down on it, when I think about Facebook, and I'll just use that as an example, the real benefit, the tangible benefit either to me personally or to me professionally is negligible. But I could pretty easily make a compelling story about like, "I have to build my brand and I have to have visibility and I have to put in new content to get new followers to sell more books," or whatever the outcome is.   Dallas Hartwig: But the real, tangible benefit is a lot harder to identify as a real thing when I'm more interested in whether it's a real thing or whether I'm just trying to justify myself. That's just being honest with yourself. And that's a difficult thing to do when you have an inherent reward system present, whether it is the reward system for digital stimulation or for sugar or for sex or for any other highly-rewarding thing in the world. When you have that reward system present, it's difficult to see the real truth there.   Kyle Gray: Is there a way to break those cycles? Is that individual to each of those? Or do you have some favorite strategies to kind of snap yourself out of those patterns?   Dallas Hartwig: I think there's a lot of commonalities between behaviors. I think there are specific strategies, but I think there's a lot of commonality. And I'll drop the word “addition” here because that's a word that I think does truly apply in a lot of these cases. And I use that loosely in the sense of sort of continued use despite harm, not in a psychiatric sense but in a more broad sense. Because ultimately when we are able to sit quietly and introspect and slow down, what we notice is that, "Every time I get on Instagram, I end up feeling bad about myself because I'm comparing my life to somebody else's life. And actually, it doesn't actually feel good for me. There's not actually a lot of net benefits, but I still do it." And so there is that continued use despite harm to myself aspect of it.   Dallas Hartwig: And I think ultimately recognizing that is the very first step. Like any 12-step kind of approach, it's like, "Hey, I have a problem. This doesn't work well for me." And I think change happens when the fear of the change is... Or I'll say it the other way. When the pain of it remaining the same exceeds the fear of the change. And that's kind of been the impetus for so many changes in my own life of, "This thing's not working for me. It has to be different. And at this point, my greatest fear is having my future be like my past." And I think that's, on a smaller scale, the way that all things change, including things that are really difficult to change, things that have inherent reward pathways built in to them and things that are truly addictive by anyone's definition. But it has to hurt before you're going to change it.   Kyle Gray: I can see that. And it's one thing to be able to be self-aware, we've gone through life, we've had some experiences and we can kind of see, "Oh, there's maybe a problem here." But I think you also have a son that you are working on creating the best life possible for him. And when you are trying to work with somebody on the same level and maybe protect them or guide them and help them navigate this world where kind of the food we eat and the norms around the food we eat aren't exactly set up for their success, and the technology around us is not set up in their best interest either. And then there's also culture and other kids and other parents. How do you navigate these systems and how do you prepare your son and teach them to show them, "Here's how you can find your way through this world."?   Dallas Hartwig: Well, that's a big question too. The short answer is I don't know. My boy's six. He and I have about the same levels of cognition so we identify easily with each other. We're both finding our way through the same world at the same level. But a lot of it has to do with helping him develop a very clear sense of self so he knows who he is and what matters to him. He's a six year old boy and right now his favorite color is pink and he likes unicorns and nail polish and pink shoes. And some of his peers are really unkind to him about that. And so we're having lots of good conversations about what it means, girl things and boy things, who you are, how you respond when people are unkind. And that's a current example, but there has been and there will be many, many more experiences in his life, like all of ours, where we have to figure out who we are, what matters to us.   Dallas Hartwig: And when that comes into conflict with the dominant culture, with the norms, how do we handle that? Do we fall into line because there's enormous social pressure, consumer pressure, financial pressure to shut up and do as you're told? I mean I think this is kind of my social cynic coming out but the conventional education system does a really good job of training industrial factory workers. But, A, that's not where most jobs are these days and going into the future, as best as I can tell, and B, it doesn't actually make people's lives richer and deeper and more meaningful. It might prepare you for a financially stable job in a cubicle, but it's not something that's going to give you the best, the most complete, most meaningful set of tools to go out and explore the world and find out what my actual meaning and purpose myself, for me.   Dallas Hartwig: So the conversations with my boy are a lot around, "What do you think about that piece? What do you think about that art things you just did? I happen to like it but the important thing is do you like it? You made it, how do you feel about it?," and having him check back in. And I had this moment of parental pride the other day where we had a conversation and he didn't like my answer to one of his questions. He wanted to do something and I said no, we couldn't do that. And he started to get frustrated and angry with me. And he's figuring out the balance of expressing anger without acting it out. And he was like, "Give me just a minute." And he turned around in his chair and took a few breaths and calmed himself down. And I was like, "Yeah, I'm doing something right here. I got a six year old who's like, 'Give me a minute to take some breaths.'"   Dallas Hartwig: But that's the kind of stuff in being able to separate self from everything else and to have a sense of not that, "I'm so important or I'm so confident that what I think is the most important thing, and screw the rest of you," but more that as he learns, and as I learn at 40, that I need to know what's important to me and to recognize that there's absolutely no way to live a meaningful, happy, if that's the word, gratifying, satisfying life if you are conformed to somebody else's standard, no matter who that other person is. And we do a really bad job in this society of teaching kids how to figure out what that is for them, which is why I'm doing at 40 what he's doing at six.   Kyle Gray: That's awesome. So you mentioned the education system here. So let's do a thought experiment and imagine we've just started the University of Dallas. What are some of the classes on the curriculum?   Dallas Hartwig: Oh, interesting. This is a great one. It's funny because I just talked about education with a friend a couple of days ago. And I think the way I concluded that conversation was, "This whole large, standardized education system doesn't work, but I'm totally overwhelmed, I don't know how I would build something that would be more customizable for each individual," so I don't really know. I think a lot of it has to do with self-exploration. And you go all the way back to attachment theory and development of infants and toddlers, we have to feel accepted for who we really are as babies and infants and young children to be able to develop the ability and confidence to be able to go explore new things.   Dallas Hartwig: And so this is informing the way that I parent my boy and I parent myself, because in order to go explore and figure out what I like in the world, what am I good at, what fills me up, I have to have this sense of confidence that that's okay to do and I have unconditional acceptance and love from, in my childhood, parents and then later from partners and peers and friends, and from self. And so there's kind of this closed loop of if you don't get that in childhood, you have to develop it later. And it's really difficult to give that to yourself later if you didn't get it in childhood. So there's a lot of extended personal growth there that then sets the stage to be able to go explore the world.   Dallas Hartwig: So courses would be very self-directed. Courses would be very exploratory. There's a balance, right? There's a balance you have to do some things just to try new stuff that you didn't think you would like or didn't think that you'd be good at, but then also there's the part of, "I don't know what's right for you. I don't know what electives you should take. Go figure it out for yourself." So I think there's a lot of the conventional, general courses and electives that we take in university have some utility to give us some context for the world that we live in and also they don't really do the thing of teaching us how to think like they say that we're supposed to. So have you heard or seen the David Foster Wallace... He gives a lecture many years ago and he talks... And I think you find it on YouTube if you search for David Foster Wallace, This is Water.   Kyle Gray: Oh, yeah.   Dallas Hartwig: It's a brilliant commencement address I think, I want to say Bates College or somewhere, or Kenyon College. And he talks about finding our way through a very confusing world and the whole, "We're going to teach you how to think in a formal education system." He's well-intentioned but really, really oversimplified.   Kyle Gray: Okay.   Dallas Hartwig: That was my way of not answering your question.   Kyle Gray: It was a good way. It worked, it worked. I'm still ready to enroll. This one, maybe this can be one of the courses that I would sign up for. Actually, I'm asking for a friend on this one. But you've talked about success versus satisfaction. And this is something that I wanted to ask you about because I've found myself at many points in my life I would set a goal, "I'll make this income, I'll achieve this, I'll travel here," and I'll get focused and start doing it. And it takes time to achieve a goal.   Dallas Hartwig: Yeah.   Kyle Gray: But as somebody who's ambitious and always forward thinking, by the time I actually get to the finish line of the goal, I have three more other goals that I'm looking for that are off in the horizon again, and I don't have time to celebrate this one anymore because there's three more and the clock's ticking.   Dallas Hartwig: Totally.   Kyle Gray: So it's a path to success in some forms where there's motivation, there's always an impetus to go forward, but it's hard to really be present and enjoy life if you're always in that. How do you handle that balance as somebody who's seen lots of different success in many different ways?   Dallas Hartwig: Yeah, I definitely handle that situation differently than I used to, for sure. I think that success versus satisfaction is an interesting thing because there is tremendous satisfaction in succeeding at your own self-created, self-assigned goals. And also, often, usually because of either misunderstandings about ourselves or misunderstandings about what we really, truly, deeply value, or because we take on many sort of culturally and socially-assigned goals, we think applying ourself to achieving the things will make us feel satisfied, give us a sense of satisfaction. And many, many, many times I, and many of my peers, do the thing, whatever the thing is, and get to the end and we're like, "Wow, that was kind of cool. I did the thing. It didn't feel quite how I thought it would," or I'm on to the next thing already.   Dallas Hartwig: And I think this... And you hear the commonly quoted research on people's top five regrets when they're on their deathbed, and none of them have to do with achieving more things. It's all about relationships and the way they spent their time and the way they valued people and the way they were vulnerable and intimate and connected to people that they cared about. None of it had to do with achieving more goals or having more success on any kind of professional, academic, financial way. That's just not what people think about. And if you think about a sense of satisfaction, that's something that is a thing that takes a long time to develop and it's kind of a slippery thing and defined differently for each person.   Dallas Hartwig: But I don't know too many people who are deeply, completely satisfied by solely professional, academic, financial success. So then it becomes a function of, "Okay, what is this a symbol for? What is this a placeholder for in my life?" Why does it matter if I get the promotion or make partner or make $10 million? Why does that matter to me?" And I think understanding what that means... Because I think there's nothing inherently wrong with doing those things and they can be really, deeply satisfying if they meet the need that you've set out to meet with them. And I think lots of times that we don't even know what we're setting out to achieve in the deeper sense of self.   Dallas Hartwig: So for me, and this is I guess an uncomfortable admission, but I don't have professional goals right now. I mean I have pragmatic goals of like, "I have to get my third book done because I'm already way behind schedule." But in terms of, "What do I do next?," I actually don't know. And that's a uncomfortable place to be because I have financial commitments, I have people asking me, I have people being like, "What's next? Where do you go from here?" My agents like, "Okay, cool. What," and I'm like, "I don't know." But there is a certain type of satisfaction in having the free, clear, open head space to be able to explore some of those things without having three more goals already set for myself. And that's not criticism of you, that's just I'm at a different place.   Kyle Gray: Fair enough.   Dallas Hartwig: So I have found the fewer specific goals I set, the more satisfied I am, which does not mean that's the way it is for anybody else. Because for me, in the enthesis, I'm a sort of very kind of flowy, things change a lot over time. To your point, I've done lots of different things over the years. The more specific I am about my goals, the more myopic I get about achieving them. And you can use the analogy of playing football and advancing the ball down upon down and making touchdown or not. But at the end of the day, what do you do? You move the goal line, you make another first down. I don't know much about football, I'm from Canada. I don't do this stuff. I think that's how it works. But then, okay cool, you made a first down or you made a touchdown and then you just do it all over again. And then the game's over eventually and you're like, "Okay, cool. I had six," or 60, or 6,000, "successes." Who cares? I don't think in those win/lose terms. So I think ultimately it comes down to, again, knowing what matters to you. And if making the most touchdowns in your life is actually what matters most to you, do it. Get a sense of satisfaction from that. That's just not my process.   Kyle Gray: So as we follow this path that you're illustrating for us, discovering who we are, what we want, and kind of being able to separate ourselves from the message and the narrative that society is offering us instead, whether it's with food, eating better, changing your diet, or changing the way you interact with technology or pursuing a goal, it requires a certain amount of deviance.   Dallas Hartwig: Yeah.   Kyle Gray: At first, when I started changing my diet and being more careful with what I eat, it was a little bit challenging to ask the waiter or waitress every time, "Hey, can I have gluten-free bun with that or a lettuce wrap?," yeah, changing around the orders, or being at somebody's house and being like, "Sorry, that's just not on the menu for me." So it's a muscle that you need to work, this deviance muscle. And how do you recommend people start practicing that and growing that muscle and that attitude of deviance to be able to pursue what's truly the best for them instead of what the world offers us?   Dallas Hartwig: Yeah, I mean that's the million dollar question. And I'll point directly to my dear friend and colleague, Pilar Gerasimo. I think I can say this, she's writing a book called The Healthy Deviant. And that's something that she's worked on, a concept she's worked on developing for 20+ years now and has written extensively about it. And I was very fortunate to just get a copy of the manuscript last week. So that'll be out I believe December or January, so it's coming up soon. But drawing heavily on her perspective, that concept of healthy deviants, not just of rebellious deviants, of counter-culturalism but the concept of thoughtful deviants, what matters to me and the recognition that conformity to the current, messed up norms doesn't produce outcomes that anybody wants. And if you agree with that statement, then we can get to a place we're like, "Okay, if I want something better than not good, I have to do something different."   Dallas Hartwig: And so then recognizing that all of those norms, all of those conventions, work well for economic growth. They work well for social compliance and keeping law and order, so to speak. But they don't really work well to make individual people deeply happy. So there has to be the willingness to question like, "Oh man, maybe we're not actually on the right track here," as a culture overall, and then say, "Okay," if we think that's true, "what do I as an individual, which is all I can control, what do I as an individual do differently?" And it's not an easy process because you very quickly find yourself misunderstood, alone, confused about yourself, about your own identity, about your own values and goals, judged by other people, as you've probably experienced with some of this stuff. And the great thing about something like food is that the social norms are slowly shifting, so it's not so weird now to go into a restaurant and ask for a gluten-free option as it was 10 or 20 years ago. And so, in that sense, some of the social norms are making it easier for us to make healthy choices.   Dallas Hartwig: But in a lot of other ways... A friend of mine said to me recently, talking about dating, and she was like, "I need to find somebody who's not on Instagram." And I was like, "Why?" And then I was like, "Oh yeah, yes, I got it." But that willingness to say, "Okay, this is a thing that many people do," but the thoughtfulness it requires and the sort of intestinal fortitude to do a different thing is a certain statement, is a certain corollary of strength of character and clarity about values. And I always come up with this... I'm a scientist, I always think about, from a biological standpoint, if you remember back to your high school biology class where you watched the video of cells, one cell dividing and kind of pulling apart and becoming this figure eight shape and then there's two different cells there. And I have this recurring vision of society being a lot like that where we have an unbalanced division, a mitotic division there of people who are staying the course, being pretty unconscious, being pretty conventional, and they will plummet to their own oblivion, if my prediction is correct.   Dallas Hartwig: And then there is a subset, there's a different group that has to painfully pull apart and extract themselves from that convention and free themselves to do a different thing. And that's a painful, odd, excruciating, confusing, disorienting, exhausting process. So how to do that, in short, I don't have a short answer on that. A lot of it has to do with recognizing that you may or may not be on the right track right now. And then you're free to say, "I wanted it to be different."   Kyle Gray: I think I have a short one or an easy practice.   Dallas Hartwig: I'm ready.   Kyle Gray: I learned this from Tim Ferriss. But he says, "Buy a weird pair of pants. Not so weird that people just know you're being crazy but just a little bit weird so people are like, 'Are you sure you wanted to wear those pants?'"   Dallas Hartwig: I have a pair of those pants actually.   Kyle Gray: Yeah.   Dallas Hartwig: They're burgundy corduroy.   Kyle Gray: There you go.   Dallas Hartwig: They're just... Maybe they might not but...   Kyle Gray: They're just... Yeah, yeah. You just want them to be just bad enough that people are like, "Did you really?"   Dallas Hartwig: "Did you do that on purpose?"   Kyle Gray: Uh-huh.   Dallas Hartwig: Yeah.   Kyle Gray: And just being able to do that and be in situations where you've got to be a little bit professional or show up, you just kind of work that muscle and practice being a little bit deviant.   Dallas Hartwig: Right.   Kyle Gray: But it's surprising that that's the same thing that everything else requires that we've been talking about.   Dallas Hartwig: Yeah, I like that. I think it's a good one. My girlfriend will not be seen in public with me wearing a denim shirt with denim pants. She won't be seen in public with me.   Kyle Gray: I don't understand that.   Dallas Hartwig: I don't understand. Canadian tuxedos are classy.   Kyle Gray: Yeah.   Dallas Hartwig: But apparently not everyone agrees with me. But that's one of those things, that's my version of the weird pair of pants.   Kyle Gray: Oh, that's great.   Dallas Hartwig: But, yeah, I think that's a good starting point.   Kyle Gray: Yeah. Dallas, we've covered a tremendous amount on how we can live better, how we can live more consciously, and how we can live a life that really serves us and not set up to serve a narrative that's not in our interest. Do you have any closing thoughts to share, and then we'll open it up for a few questions?   Dallas Hartwig: Closing thoughts, I think one of the things that I'm kicking around a lot these days is this recognition that I've spent so much time in my life conforming to parents' standards, teachers' standards, boss's standards, friends, colleagues, society at large's standards that I haven't really, really figured out who the Dallas is way at the bottom, the one that I probably left behind when I was five. And I think that's an experience that, in talking to friends, I think a lot of us have and may not really even recognize that that's the thing. So I would encourage, and this is me giving myself advice, I would encourage further exploration of that. Because ultimately, we go way off track a lot without recognizing that we're off track. And then things don't feel good and we don't know why. And so I'm like, "Okay, let's strip it down, let's go back to basics and figure out who am I all the way at the bottom, when I'm by myself, when no one can see what I'm doing and no one knows my thoughts, no one knows what I want to do. Who is that person and what does that person care about?" And that can be both unsettling to look at and also really healing. And that's the journey that I'm on and the journey that I would encourage everyone to kind of undertake for themselves.   Kyle Gray: Well, Dallas, I can't wait to meet the Dallas that you're working on and you're bringing forward. And thank you so much for joining us today.   Dallas Hartwig: Thank you.   Kyle Gray: Are there any questions?   Dallas Hartwig: I think the question, if I'm getting it right, is if I don't set very specific, very tangible, quantifiable goals, what do I do in place of that? Is that about right?   Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.   Dallas Hartwig: For me, it's so much more about the process, so much more about moving through the experience of life and recognizing that I can set professional goals, I can set personal-growth goals that are more likely to be achieved if I write them down, I do all the goal-setting stuff that works really well. But that doesn't necessarily get me to the place I want to go. So a lot of it, for me, has become identifying areas of my life that don't feel good and just putting attention on those. And that could be relationships, that could be the way I spend my time, it could be my health, it could be any number of things, and just identifying, "Where do I feel friction? Where do I feel a lot of resistance? Where do I feel discomfort or pain or just a lot of suffering?" And then letting that naturally kind of follow me into that space and to put more attention on it, because that changes over time.   Dallas Hartwig: As we iterate ourselves, what we put attention on evolves over time. And I don't have a sequence or a thing there, for me, for better or worse, it's a very organic, malleable, free-flowing process, but it starts with identifying what doesn't feel good, i.e, "What do I want to be different?" And once I know what I want to be different, then I can start inquiring, "How do I achieve that?" And often, going all the way back to your point about the Whole30, some is experimentation. It is, "This thing with my health or my food doesn't feel quite right. Something's not right there." And I sometimes don't know what the endpoint or what the long-term behavior is or the pattern or habit that it needs to be to make it feel really good, but I do know that that's the place I need to start exploring.   Dallas Hartwig: And I think, again, Occam's razor, simple solutions, if you have a gut sense that you're not putting enough attention on your physical health, start putting some more attention on that. And the things that we put the most effort into excusing and justifying and avoiding looking at are usually the things that are our biggest stumbling block. So when I suggest to people, "Oh, I see that your diet's really pretty good but I also noticed that you're drinking most nights of the week. Maybe giving that a break for a while might prompt some kind of progress." And they're like, "No, it's totally fine," and they get this very defensive posture. The more defensive you are, the more important it is to you on some profound level. And if you find yourself getting really good at justifying things or emotionally responsive and sort of reactive and defensive, that's a dead giveaway that that's the thing you need to look at. So it's kind of the litmus test of, "How much do you hate me for saying this?," that's the thing.   Kyle Gray: I like that a lot.   Dallas Hartwig: So the question then is how do I know if I feel good?   Speaker 4: I guess that's it.   Dallas Hartwig: Is that right?   Kyle Gray: Yeah.   Dallas Hartwig: If you don't feel good, you know. If you do feel good, you probably know. And so I don't know that it's actually useful to try to quantitatively define, "Do I feel good?," to myself, relative to somebody else, relative to some objective external standard. If you are perfectly content in your life, I don't want to change anything. If everything feels good, I don't want to change anything. If you tell me everything feels good but you say to yourself, "Well, not really," all that really is happening there is sort of self-delusion. And that's not my business to meddle with. But if something doesn't feel good to you, you'll probably know because you'll probably notice a yearning for it to be different, some piece of it. Right? And we have these deep, profound yearnings of like, "Hey, I wish this thing in my life was different," or, "I hope that in 10 years it'll be that way instead of the way it is now." And so the recognition that we want it to be different than it is, there's the litmus test.   Dallas Hartwig: And it's different for every single person. And this is actually one of the aspects of the Whole30 that I still really stand by in every other self-experiment is I don't need to or don't want to, it actually works against the process of self-exploration and self-development for some external expert, guru, whoever, to say, "This is what you should eat," and how much, at what times of day for this outcome. I don't know any of that for you, and neither does anybody else. And the ones that say they do are lying, usually to themselves because they think they do. But if it feels good for you, you know. And if it doesn't feel good for you, you're the only one that's going to know whether it feels better or worse when you start changing things. And so start changing things, and start at the place that feels the least good.   Dallas Hartwig: And what often happens, and this is, again, what happened a lot when people started changing their diet with the Whole30 program, if that was an area where they were like, "I really need to put attention on my health, on nutrition," and they started changing that, lots of times relationships, creativity, sleep, and many other things in life, that were lesser issues but still didn't feel good, started to self-resolve. Because these things are all interrelated. So what you might find is if you start with the most obvious place that doesn't feel good, some of the other things may just start to feel better. And you might not even notice that until weeks or months or years later where you're like, "Oh yeah, I used to get that really bad seasonal allergy thing or used to have seasonal depression in the wintertime. And I kind of don't have that anymore." And you don't even notice because it just never reappeared. So long-winded way of saying you are the only person who knows whether it feels good for you or not. I can't tell you that.   Kyle Gray: Thanks for listening to the Story Engine Podcast.

I sat down with Dallas Hartwig, co-founder of “The Whole30: The 30-Day Guide to Total Health and Food Freedom” and author of the New York Times Bestseller “It Starts With Food”. Our conversation begins at the intersection where health, love, and nutrition meet before moving onto the broader topic of self-identity, self-esteem, and self-fulfillment and how these are impacted (and transformed!) by the food we eat and the way we care for our bodies. Dallas offers some killer tips and advice on how to navigate change and growth, both in our emotional lives and within our physical bodies so that we can truly thrive.

After hearing about Whole30 from a good friend, she read through Melissa and Dallas Hartwig’s book It Starts With Food and was inspired to complete a round of the program. At the end of the month, she had lost 22 pounds and never felt better. Her sleep and energy levels had drastically improved. Additionally, she was able to quit smoking and even noticed a boost to her moods. Since then, she’s lost over 125 pounds following a paleo lifestyle.

Have you tried all the diet programs and nothing seems to help you have freedom in your diet while living a healthy life? In today’s episode, Dr. Schaffer is going to share with you something new he started doing in his diet that has given him freedom in his health….#Whole30. Doc here, I’m going to talk to you about another tool, The “Whole 30” diet by Melissa and Dallas Hartwig. They also wrote the bestselling book, “It Starts with FOOD”. Now if you listen to me very much or listened to my episode on Proper Nutrition, you know I’m not a big fan of dieting. So am I going to be hypocritical here and recommend a diet? Not really, and I’ll explain. Whole30 addresses (from the book), an unhealthy relationship with food (psychological, cravings), a disrupted digestive system, a sluggish metabolism and an overactive immune systems. This last one ties into several episodes ago when I spoke about inflammatory foods. Immune system can overreact by creating chronic systemic inflammation, which has been linked to a slew of health conditions, probably many that you are suffering with.

About Mel: Melissa Joulwan is the author of the best-selling Well Fed cookbook series and the blog www.MelJoulwan.com, where she writes about her triumphs and failures in the gym, in the kitchen, and in life. Her newest cookbook is Well Fed Weeknights: Complete Paleo Meals in 45 Minutes Or Less.  After a lifetime of yo-yo dieting and food as the enemy, Melissa found the paleo diet in 2009 and has been happily following it ever since. That year, she also underwent a thyroidectomy. In the aftermath of the surgery and recovery, she became particularly interested in how diet affects hormones, body composition, mood, and motivation. These days, Melissa’s workouts are just as likely to include yoga and meditation as lifting heavy things and sprinting to stay ahead of the stopwatch. Well Fed 2 was named one of the best books of 2013 by Amazon.com and was a Washington Post best seller. Her first cookbook Well Fed appeared on the Wall Street Journal best sellers list, and she’s the author of the recipes in the New York Times bestselling book It Starts With Food by Melissa and Dallas Hartwig. She writes a column for Paleo Magazine and her recipes have been featured in print in Low Sugar Living, Inspire Health, and Where Women Cook, and online at Buzzfeed.com, FoodNetwork.com, Nylon.com, PopSugar.com, and Men’s Journal. She has been a featured chef for U.S. Wellness Meats and Lava Lake Lamb, as well as an instructor at Whole Foods.

Sitting on our butts — it's something most of us do for hours on end. We sit at our desks and in meetings. We sit while parked in front of screens at home. We sit while eating, drinking and socializing. We sit while driving cars and riding in planes and trains and — well, pretty much everywhere, most of the time. Given how much of our lives we spend sitting, it's worth knowing how it affects our bodily systems — not just our musculoskeletal health, but our metabolism, biochemistry, and more. One expert quoted in The Washington Post asserts that after 30 minutes of sitting, your metabolism can slow by as much 90 percent, and that after two hours, the good cholesterol in your blood stream can drop 20 percent. Yikes! So in this week's episode of The Living Experiment, we offer insights into the damage done by prolonged sitting, plus an explanation for why simply swapping sitting for standing isn't an ideal solution, and some simple, doable ways to keep your body in motion at healthy intervals throughout the day. "Sitting" Episode Highlights "Sitting (and maybe standing?) is the new smoking" – seeing beyond conflicting and confusing headlines (2:50) Why the real problem is being too sedentary for too long – and why extended bouts of standing, while better than sitting, still spell trouble (4:00) The motion-based muscular contractions required for your circulatory system to return blood to your heart (5:30) The chronic musculoskeletal imbalances that arise from being too still for too long (7:50) Why unseen postural muscles matter, and the importance of their endurance, not just their strength (10:05) The vicious cycle of sitting in a chair and decreasing endurance (11:00) Yoga and ball chairs – litmus tests (and training tools) for postural-muscle stamina (12:00) Mushy abs, a weak back, feeble gluteal muscles and tight hip flexors — the high costs of chair time (12:45) Sitting's impact on your upper body – a concave chest, shallow breathing, and a craned neck position (15:15) The "medicalization" of poor lifestyle practices and “the tyranny of the diagnosis” that dissuades us from addressing the real root causes of our health problems (16:20) The hormonal and metabolic pitfalls of a sedentary lifestyle, and the hazardous combination of sitting a lot and eating a carb-heavy, high- refined-grain diet (17:25) How even very short periods of movement can have giant positive effects on insulin sensitivity (19:30) Potential benefits of shifting to a standing desk or sit-to-stand desk (24:10) The bare-minimum frequency at which you need to be moving (25:00) A shout-out to the “Pause” episode of The Living Experiment, and how to leverage your ultradian rhythms for more regular activity breaks (25:45) Creating a standing desk from available stuff, or advocating for healthier office accessories (27:15) How to incorporate standing or walking into work meetings (28:45) The big picture: Planning your next life move in favor of your health, happiness and satisfaction (33:10) Suggested experiments for the week (35:25) This Week's Experiments Dallas suggests: Establish a rule: If you're going to watch TV or play video games, stand up while doing so. From a standing position, you'll find yourself moving around more often – you simply won't want to stand stationary for the full duration of a one-hour show. If you're standing while watching, you'll also be far less inclined to consume passive entertainments for prolonged periods. Pilar suggests: Take a look at the environments where you spend most of your time seated – both at work and at home – and evaluate how you might be able to adjust or redesign those spaces to encourage more frequent and regular movement. Create a standing work station in your office by stacking up books or bringing in a platform. Set out a yoga mat, kettle bell, bands, or weights near where you work to inspire you to incorporate movement into your day. At home, assess how your entertainment area is set up: If your living room is designed around watching TV, that's what you're going to do. Rearrange your furniture to encourage conversation, reading, cuddling, doing creative projects or looking outside instead. Share the Love!

We live in a culture that encourages us to consume far more than we create. That's a dynamic that directly undermines both our health and happiness. Learn why, and how you can achieve a more empowering balance. Creativity — whether preparing a delicious meal or exchanging witty banter with an old friend — can bring deep satisfaction. Consumption — whether enjoying a fine wine or a riveting Game of Thrones episode — can also be a delightful experience. But when creativity- and consumption-based pleasures get out of balance in our lives, our health and happiness start to suffer. Giving without receiving can be exhausting, while consuming without producing can feel aimless. In this week's episode of The Living Experiment, we explore the dynamic relationship between creativity and consumption, the historic events that have led to our modern-day imbalance, and some strategies for establishing a healthier equilibrium. "Creativity vs. Consumption" Episode Highlights Defining, in thought-provoking terms, the key concepts of consumption (3:05) and creation (3:35) Dallas's observations of behavior changes in people on the Whole30 program, and how they inspired his interest in the creativity/consumption dynamic (4:40) The virtuous cycle of making positive changes that boost your self-confidence (8:10) An evolutionary mismatch: how our DNA is hardwired for a balance of creativity and consumption very different from how we're living today (9:50) How Pilar's personal experience of the consumption/creativity imbalance motivated her to create Experience Life magazine, and the confirming feedback she got from readers (10:35) A historical overview of the shift from creation to consumption (12:40) The Agricultural Revolution, and how it changed our fundamental rhythms of life (14:25) The impact of trade and transactional relationships on the rise of consumerism – “What can I get for myself from you?” (15:05) The Industrial Revolution, and how mechanized production translated to less work for more goods, creating the economic forces that shaped consumer society (15:40) How the overconsumption of stuff has led us to want more of everything and affected our interpersonal relationships (18:00) The evolutionary drivers behind the desire to accumulate things (19:35) The inverse relationship between creation and consumption, and the damage caused by mindless overconsumption (22:15) How changing one small thing, whether nutrition, activity, sleep or mindset, can lead to profound life transformation (23:40) Meditation as a means of combating harmful consumption patterns (24:10) The dopamine loop activated by digital experiences, and how instant gratification creates a need for increasingly amped-up rewards (24:50) Research on how simple, hands on tasks can help counteract addictive tendencies (27:30) Lessons of the "trust-fund rat study" — how rats that didn't have to work to find their food ended up more sick, fat, and depressed than rats that did (29:40) Upgrading your media consumption (31:45) Dallas's "More Social Less Media" program – balancing creative social interaction with mindful media intake (33:15) The value of examining our effort to get love and affection from other people (34:40) Why cooking a meal with another person can be a profoundly uplifting experience (36:55) Suggested experiments for the week (38:20) This Week's Experiments Dallas suggests: Identify one or two places where you mindlessly over-consume, and pick a creative replacement activity instead. Examples: Join a book club, plant a vegetable garden, pick up a musical instrument, or write in a journal. “If your goal is ‘reduce consumption,' be more creative; if your goal is ‘be more creative,' reduce consumption.” Pilar suggests: 1) Reduce your in-car media consumption, and instead make a creative effort to drive with exceptional kindness and generosity. Minimize dependence on music, news, texting, and phone-based interactions. Drive with the most awareness and thoughtfulness you can muster; rather than thinking about others as obstacles in your way, be on the lookout for how you can assist and support others during your commute. Examples: Anticipate people who might be trying to merge into your lane, slow down, and wave them in; make up kind and compassionate stories about the iffy behaviors of other drivers. Recognize that you can choose the attitude you want to adopt in any given moment, and how this gives you the opportunity to improve your own and others' experiences. 2) Swap some TV time in favor of an activity that improves your personal environment or quality of life.  Invest at least part of your habitual media-consumption time (even a half hour) in the service of your own happiness.  Look for some small way you can creatively contribute to own real-life daily experience or sense of wellbeing instead. Examples: Declutter a messy area, reorganize and arrange the bedside table to be more beautiful, vacuum out the silverware drawer, or clear out long-expired spices or supplements. Deal with some small annoyance or toleration you've been putting off.

More people start running to lose weight than start for any other reason. Join a group of runners paused at a water kiosk, and poll them for the reason why each of them runs, and even if they are fast, fit runners, at least half of them will tell you they run to eat. You’d be surprised. Running can certainly help you lose weight, and it will help you keep it off, but it’s not a given; it’s not automatic, as some might expect. In this episode I discusses what you need to know to make sure running and weight loss mesh to make sure you achieve weight loss your goal. Please check out these resources: Robert H.

Podcast 537: Whole 30--The 30 Day Guide to Total Health and Food Freedom with Dallas Hartwig by Greg Voisen

It seems everyone wants to change something grand in their lives (professional and personal). But what if changing one thing in just one part of your life had a disproportionate effect on the greater whole? That idea is precisely what Dallas and Melissa Hartwig investigated in their book, It Starts with Food, and you won’t believe the findings. I was so compelled, I gave it a 30 day try, dropped down to my high school weight and never felt more healthy. It’s a home run idea and I hope you enjoy the conversation for yourself. Music today provided by TripleScoopMusic.com – sound as good as you look. To get access to everything mentioned on today’s show, please visit Whole9Life.com. Special thanks to Dallas and Melissa Hartwig for being here. And finally, thanks to YOU!
