This week's episode was originally going to be about many things, but once we got started, we realized that there is one topic that we needed to talk about: abortion. We discuss the implications of restrictive abortion laws, the personal nature of abortion decisions, and the importance of voting to influence reproductive rights. We cannot emphasize enough the need for equitable access to this very important type of healthcare. Two notes: 1. If discussing abortion access is triggering to you because of the nature of your loss (i.e. TFMR), we welcome you to skip this one. It is all we talk about. 2. If you support limiting or eliminating access to abortion and would like to discuss this with us, we are open to that, but please use our Instagram DMs instead of a public comment. We do not want the folks in #1 to have any more exposure to these viewpoints than they already do. ::: Previous episodes of As Long As I'm Living about abortion or TFMR: - Abortion is Healthcare - TFMR is Baby Loss, with Hadley's Mom Jill - When "Choice" Doesn't Feel Like a Choice, an interview about TFMR with Adelyn's Mom Alyssa - Maliyah's Story, as told by her mom, Emily - When Your Pregnancy is Killing You, an interview about TFMR with Emily, Maliyah's Mom Abortion Information and Resources: - Guttmacher Institute - CDC Abortion Findings and Reports - AbortionFinder.org - Center for Reproductive Rights US Voting Resources: - Vote.gov - Vote.org ::: Support As Long As I'm Living podcast at ⁠⁠⁠⁠buymeacoffee.com/alailpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠ OR buy buying our MERCH at ⁠⁠⁠⁠bonfire.com/store/alailpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠! ::: Follow As Long As I'm Living on Instagram at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@aslongasimlivingpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, send us an email at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠aslongasimlivingpodcast@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, or visit us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠anchor.fm/aslongasimliving⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

On this episode, Stress is Killing You and You Need a Better Support System to Avoid Burnout and Thrive, Benjamin teaches on the correlation between your level of stress and your level of support. Stress feels like a constant battle, if it's not one thing it's another. If you were asked what is stressing you out right now, and if you were given a pen and piece of paper you'd start making a list. Often the more stressful life become the more we tell ourselves put our head down and work harder. The majority of us have an inadequate support system for the level of stress we are leading under. This is a dangerous spot of any leader to be in. It's the root the leads of addiction, toxic behavior, and burnout. On the episode Benjamin will talk about this correlation and what you can do about it. This is a really important conversation when it comes to being a longterm life-giving giving leader. Episode Quote: "You need habits and relationships that can offer you the support you need right now, not the support you needed 10 or twenty years ago. I love that you still have friends from college, but the areas of your life that matter most right now need mentors, not friends."This episode, like all Rise and Lead Podcast episodes, is highly practical and motivating.

Mastering Sales Strategies to Overcome Gatekeepers and Boost Your Income Today we are working fromThe Closers Pt 2, page 141 by Ben Gay III: Your Switchboard is Killing You. Within the sales profession, numerous individuals are earning less than their true potential. Many find themselves living below the standard they could achieve, reflected in their clothing, dining choices, and even their mode of transportation. The primary culprit? A significant portion of potential sales meets an untimely demise before reaching you. This demise is orchestrated by the formidable Killer Switchboard, also recognized as the Guardian at the Gate. Gatekeepers, often known as executive assistants or receptionists, are entrusted with the responsibility of thwarting individuals like yourself from securing an audience with the ultimate decision-maker and keeper of the checkbook.

Burnout and exhaustion are terms that most of us have become all too acquainted with, especially after the trials of 2020. We know the signs too well; irritability, sleeplessness, loss of vision - but do we know how to effectively address them? And more importantly, do we know when we need to pause and seek help? This episode is a candid exploration of these questions, with insights from our special guest, Wes Butler.  Together, we unpack the importance of self-awareness and holistic evaluation, using the metaphor of an EKG (Evaluate Everything, Kill What's Killing You, and Grow What's Good). We delve into the concept of 'vampire power' - those sneaky energy-drainers that lurk in our daily lives - and how identifying these is the stepping-stone to implementing necessary changes. But it's not all about the negatives. Wes shares how to grow what's good in our lives and find time for things that bring us joy and health.  And finally, we shed light on the often-overlooked spiritual dimension of burnout. We explore biblical principles of confession and repentance, illuminating how these can pave the path to healing and freedom.Keep Moving Mountains!  || Connect with Us || Check out all our episodes on all major streaming platforms, and further engagement with the 17Twenty crew on social media at:https://17twenty.buzzsprout.com/https://www.linkedin.com/company/17twentyhttps://www.instagram.com/17twentypodcastGrab your copy of the Mountain Mover Manual: How to Live Intentionally, Lead with Purpose, and Achieve Your Greatest Potential, by Kevin CareyOriginally in print:https://amzn.to/441OPeHAnd now available on Audible:https://adbl.co/45YIKB2

Marni welcomes Naketa Ren to The Life Check Yourself where the duo talks about balancing life, love, and success as well as learning how to take pauses when you need them. Naketa is a podcast host, author, and the number one balance and relationship advisor globally. The powerhouse helps clients find that work-life balance, build a sustainable successful business while also prioritizing mental health and personal relationships. And it all starts with knowing when to slow down, and how to do it.    Give yourself permission to slow down  How to be mindful How to leave an imprint on the world   The Multigenerational Imprint [10:17]   The multigenerational imprint that you leave on this planet begins with yourself. It stems from showing up as an individual that honors authenticity, transparency, and kindness. It's by practicing all those qualities with yourself that you can then share them with others. Be kind to yourself, be transparent with yourself and be authentic and honest when looking inwards.    Authenticity is different from transparency. You could be very authentic and show up as fully who you are but not be transparent with why you are being that way.    How You Show Up Could be Killing You [15:47]   How do you speak to yourself? Is it with kindness? Or are you harsh on yourself? Focus on what it is you say to you because when you put yourself down, and stress yourself out, you're not only unhealthy mentally but physically as well. Stress dictates a big part of our physical health. It accounts for a high percentage of non-congenital illnesses.    How you think of yourself and how you show up for yourself could be killing you slowly.    Imagine all of those hidden diseases and hidden illnesses that are stress-induced.     High Egos And Corporate Traumas [21:00]   It's not a bad thing to have an ego, but it is bad to let your ego run the whole show. Unfortunately, we can't change another person's ego. What we can do is hold up a mirror to them but sometimes it's not enough.    And in a work environment, your superiors' egos could be destructive to your mental well-being as well as those around you.

“Take away paradox from the thinker and you have a professor.” ~Søren KierkegaardThis Habits 2 Goals episode is FREE for ALL subscribers. In 2014 I wrote It's Both! Your (Habitual) Dichotomous Thinking is Killing You.That's right, “Killing You!”I went a bit deeper on this concept in The Pressure Paradox™ (2015).It's worth revisiting as the idea is essential to critical thinking and, interestingly enough, peace of mind. A sure sign of a mature mind is one that can hold two opposing ideas together, at the same time (most of the time).The reason we're revisiting the concept is that I'm noticing it's percolating elsewhere.Let's begin with Matthew McConaughey's latest book (Sept 2023) Just Because. Just Because is an illustrated kid's book designed to teach children many life lessons.In so doing, it fosters “Both” thinking.” Few lessons may be more important to understand for children.Straight from McConaughey's book, examples on Amazon.com.“Just because they don't hear you, doesn't mean you don't have a voice.”“Just because you follow, it doesn't mean you aren't a leader.”“Just because you are sitting still, it doesn't mean you are not busy.”Another recent book is actually titled, “BOTH/AND Thinking” by Harvard Review Press, August of 2022.I'm guessing “dichotomous” in any title is a bit much.Here's how that book is summarized on Amazon. Life is full of paradoxes. How can we each express our individuality while also being a team player? How do we balance work and life? How can we improve diversity while promoting opportunities for all? How can we manage the core business while innovating for the future?For many of us, these competing and interwoven demands are a source of conflict. Since our brains love to make either-or choices, we choose one option over the other. We deal with the uncertainty by asserting certainty.Finally, there is The Power of And: Responsible Business Without Trade-Offs Columbia Business School Publishing. June 2020.Another book elucidating the very idea; tailored for the business world.“The Power of And” offers a new narrative about the nature of business, revealing the focus on responsibility AND ethics.Sounds a lot like BOTH/AND thinking to me.It is the appreciation – the recognition of multiple paths, multiple perspectives and paradigms, that ultimately leads to freedom — even enlightenment.For instance, you must know what the customer wants AND you must trust and move according to your own intuition.“You are absolutely, 100% totally unique, one-of-a-kind. And, you are just like everyone else.”You must pay attention to the little things AND you must have a long-term, macro-perspective.You must never settle AND you must, most definitely, on occasion settle.Are we really “wired” to choose one answer/option/solution over another?“Wired” may not be the right way to describe it. In the West, in particular, society loves to pit “right” against “wrong”. Left vs Right. Up vs Down. Meat vs Veggies.More often than not, my friends, it's BOTH.This reminds me of the old saying, “The Left Wing” and “The Right Wing” are connected to the same bird.BOTH. ONE. NON-DICHOTOMOUS.Say it with me, it's BOTH!The answer, more often than not, is BOTH/AND and maybe even, Just Because. Just because you think there is a single answer, doesn't mean there aren't many.Love your show!Sidenote: The truth is life is dynamic, fluid (recent episode), and holistic. By the way, this is precisely what “The Three Circles of Behavior Echo-System” / The Grunburg Behavior Model represents (ask Bard). It's a holistic, fluid and dynamic behavior model that humans and organizations can use to design behaviors.Arguably, it's the most accurate human behavior model to date.

After a while I gave up trying to read those little blurbs that were next to the senior pictures in a high school yearbook. In our school, the seniors got to write their own, and it was usually in cryptic abbreviations so they could get in as many words as possible. Now, those abbreviations refer to something meaningful to the person who wrote it; some important people, some important memories, "Oh, yeah, sure." But most of those blurbs are like hopelessly cryptic. I guess you had to be there in order to understand what they're writing about, right? But I understood Scott's when I read it. He was one of the top scholars in our recent graduating class; honored many times over. At the end of his blurb he had these words, "Miss U Mom." His Mom was a teacher at the high school. She died of cancer in his sophomore year, and it added a note of sadness to the joy of graduation to know that Scott's Mom wasn't there to see him on his night of high honor. She, with so many others, was taken by that monster we call cancer. You know what? In a way, I'm a cancer victim too. So are you. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "The Cancer That's Killing You." Our word for today from the Word of God is in James 1, and I'll read verse 15 today. "After desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and sin when it is full grown gives birth to death." This is a description of a killer disease - a spiritual disease - called sin, and we all have it. Romans 3:23 in the Bible says, "Everyone has sinned and come short of the glory of God." So, it's a disease we all have, and frankly it does work very much like cancer. All of our cells are kind of programmed to do a certain job within the body. They sort of answer to central intelligence, and there's a master plan built into our cells; the millions of cells in your body. It's built right into the control center in that cell, and that's why some of them know that it's time to rush to a certain spot in your body when you get injured, or they build a wall around an infection so it won't spread. That's their job. But one day one cell says, "Forget the master plan; I'm going to do as I please." And it no longer takes orders from central intelligence, goes off on its own, begins to multiply, and ultimately attacks a vein or a vital organ, and then the young man writes in a yearbook, "Miss U Mom." Inside you and me is the spiritual cancer called sin. It's really made up of that middle letter of the word - "I" - SIN. The master plan is that I live for God and I live for others. But I've chosen to go off on my own and pretty much like the song says, "I'll do it my way." That's true of me, too. That disease kills the people that we cut with our temper, it kills closeness, it ruins the reality and the meaning of sex, love, and families. And we all have it! We have this disease. James 1:15 says, "When it's fully conceived it gives birth to death. There's a wall between God and us. I probably didn't have to tell you that wall was there. I mean, you can already feel it. If it's there when we die, it's there forever. Cancer uncontrolled will kill your body; sin uncontrolled sends you and me to hell. Your biggest problem in your life isn't death or family or finances. It's sin. This is your deadly condition. But listen to Jesus saying, "I let it kill me so it doesn't have to kill you." See, Jesus took all the dying for this spiritual cancer of sin when He died on the cross. There is a cure for the killer in us. I want to invite you today on behalf of Jesus to go to the place where you get the cure. It is at the cross of Jesus Christ, where the price was paid. A blood cure! His blood is the only cure. And he invites you today to go there and say, "Jesus, I'm Yours." Join me today at our website, would you, because I've laid out there how you can begin your personal relationship with Jesus and know you are forgiven. It's ANewStory.com. You could open your life to the Savior today and be cured of the sin that otherwise is so deadly.

Comfort is Killing You!The Truth About Comfort: Is it Ruining your Life? – Matthew Kelly – 60 Second WisdomGet Matthew's 60 Second Wisdom delivered to your inbox: https://www.matthewkelly.com/subscribeVideo Transcript:“It's natural to turn to comfort during times of exhaustion and suffering. Comfort has its role to play, but what is the purpose of comfort? The purpose of comfort is healing, rejuvenation, and renewal, in order to prepare us to face new challenges and opportunities in life. But there is also a dark side to comfort. It is seductive. When comfort becomes the goal of our lives, we begin a debilitating downward spiral. Once we are addicted to comfort, it shifts from strengthening us to weakening us. Comfort is a beautiful servant, but an ugly master. It will destroy you if you let it. It will sap your soul strength, leaving you morally, ethically, and spiritually paralyzed… which will prevent you from standing up for what is good, right, true, and just. Once you start living for comfort there is no amount of comfort that will satisfy you.”If you have not read LIFE IS MESSY, order your copy today: https://amzn.to/2TTgZKn Subscribe to Matthew's YouTube Channel today! https://www.youtube.com/c/MatthewKellyAuthor/featured?sub_confirmation=1https://www.matthewkelly.comGet Matthew's 60 Second Wisdom delivered to your inbox: https://www.matthewkelly.com/subscribe The Best Version of Yourself and 60 Second Wisdom are registered trademarks.#MatthewKelly #BestVersionOfYourself #60SecondWisdom #BestVersion

What happens to a nation when the government bureaucracy is weaponized against the people? We could ask the survivors of the Lenin/Stalin regimes, those who survived Mao, or we could wait and ask the people of the United States in the next five years.  Despite it being downplayed in the press, we have a very real and dangerous border crisis. Just this week, drug gangs in Mexico murders nearly a dozen people. Remind us again, which US Govt agency funneled guns directly to the Mexican drug cartels? We will take a close look during our SOTG Homeroom from CrossBreed Holsters. During our Duracoat Finished Firearms segment Professor Paul has an idea for an interesting camo kit.

Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) blamed her failed 2020 presidential bid on the fact that she was born without a male appendage, according to a new book. NBC News correspondent Ali Vitali is out with a new book, “Electable: Why America Hasn't Put a Woman in the White House … Yet.” Based on an excerpt from the book in Politico, Warren and some in her campaign believe that one of the reasons is because Iowa's Democratic voting base is filled with a bunch of sexists. Vitali, who followed Warren along during the 2020 Iowa primary campaign, recounted that after the caucus was over, she discussed the campaign with Warren and why she did not do as well as she had hoped.

In the first incident in Ciudad Juarez, two prison inmates were shot dead and 20 injured in a riot involving two rival gangs, Deputy Security Minister Ricardo Mejia told reporters. Local media said both groups were linked to the Sinaloa cartel, whose former leader, Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, is currently serving a life sentence in the United States. (Click Here for Full Article)   From www.nationalreview.com: The IRS deleted a job posting Wednesday seeking a Special Agent “willing to use deadly force” for its law enforcement division, Criminal Investigation (CI). The deletion came amid renewed scrutiny of the IRS in response to a Democrat-backed spending bill that would double the size of the agency. “As a Special Agent you will combine your accounting skills with law enforcement skills to investigate financial crimes,” the job advertisement read. “No matter what the source, all income earned, both legal and illegal, has the potential of becoming involved in crimes which fall within the investigative jurisdiction of the IRS Criminal Investigation. Because of the expertise required to conduct these complex financial investigations, IRS Special Agents are considered the premier financial investigators for the Federal government,” the job posting continued.

This radio play was adapted from the script titled, "Killing You," by Joseph Arnone.

One of the newest fields in psychiatry is the field of nutritional psychiatry. Your brain is always on. It works 24 /7. Because of that it needs high octane fuel yet most people give it The 87 octane. Your brain can get by on it for a while but it will start to show. Your brain will start to backfire. Sputter when you hit the throttle. The fuel you give your body affects the structure and function of your brain. The processes of your brain affect your moods. Our body needs high quality foods. Foods that contain lots of Vitamins, Minerals, and Antioxidants. Diets high in refined foods, especially sugars are harmful to the brain. In 1957, Dr William Coda Martin went as far as to classify refined sugar as a poison. His scientific backup for this was the fact that refined sugar depletes the body of nutrition. It requires vitamins and minerals to break it down but refined sugars have none. It provides only “Empty” or “Naked” calories. Minerals such as sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium are needed to return the blood sugar levels to a more normal state. Sugar is a very low fuel source. So eating sugar has a huge effect on your mental health. Processed foods have little to no value and provide no help to run the brain. Now if you think the government or FDA would protect you from foods that are poisonous. The FDA reported in a congressional report that “exposure to toxic elements in the food supply extremely seriously, ... will continue to reduce levels of arsenic in infant rice cereal.” We had to take lead out of paint in case kids were eating paint chips but they can have it present in children's cereal. You have to be responsible for your own wellness no one else can do it. Just because it is marketed and labeled as a food does not mean it should be eaten. Now, maybe you eat pretty good and get the 12 to 14 serving of fruits and vegetables a day I did when I was doing shakes twice a day. I was sure I was getting the nutrition I needed. But then I found information stating that the opposite was true. Because of the way we grow our food it has stripped the amounts of nutrition from the food we grow. According to the Department of Agriculture nutritional data from 1950 and1999 there have been “reliable declines” in the amount of protein, calcium, phosphorus, iron, riboflavin (vitamin B2) and vitamin C over the past half century. For example it would take eating 8 Oranges to get the same amount of Vitamin A as our grandparents would have got from one. Another example is spinach, even if it is kept at 39 degrees over 8 days it loses much of its nutritional value. It is still important to eat a diet high in fruits and veggies.

For decades, the video game industry has provided hours of enjoyment for millions of people worldwide. With many competitors wanting a share of the pie, video game companies must constantly innovate to keep competitive. Part of this comes in the form of marketing and selling video games to children. On the surface, this may seem harmless enough. However, notice the number of hours your child spends on the screen. Do they lack sleep, exercise, and socialization? Are they becoming more aggressive? If you answered yes to both of these questions, you're not alone. The video games that our children play are increasingly becoming more addictive and violent. The consequences of these to our young are far-reaching. In this episode, Lt. Col. Dave Grossman shares how the video game industry and the government are turning a blind eye to the effects of violent video games. He talks about why it's problematic to have our children be exposed to these. We also learn how violent video games are connected to sleep deprivation, mass murder, suicide, and more. But not all is lost. Even if we cannot change the industry immediately, we can take control of our family's habits. Lt. Col. Dave shares simple changes we can make to create a big impact, not just in our children's lives but also in our own. Listen to this episode to learn more about the harms of violent video games and how to overcome addiction to them. 3 reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Get informed on the current state of the video game industry and why it's becoming more dangerous. Discover why it's so easy to get addicted to games and our screens. Learn the ways we can overcome addiction and create better habits for our children. Resources Connect with Lt. Col.

This post explores words you use costing you customers! No one wants that from time and energy spent writing articles or doing podcasts! Create a Common Enemy For us all in 2020 it's been COVID19. For the first time in the history of the world we all have a common enemy. No matter who you might blame or back or what you do or don't agree with about how it's been handled, we are just people. We're daughters and sons, parents, siblings, significant others who care about the health and well-being of our own. It doesn't matter if someone speaks your language or is across the street or across the globe, we've experienced a moment in time connecting to others. If all workplaces communicate their mission so much that teams hold take not just the mission but the obstacles to achieving that mission personally, they'd thrive. If entire teams come together fighting the same cause – as opposed are pitted against each other – there will be fewer internal rivals and more job satisfaction. There are Plenty of Bad Guys And if you can harness a villain – be it age, or bone loss, or cancer, or sedentary jobs, or misinformation about fitness for midlife women… you can then become a part of a team with your audience and tribe. You fight with them, instead of preaching or teaching. It feels very different. Teaching, without intending to, can feel like judgment. If you instead are sending your message to “them” or to “the cancer” or “the menopause” or the “stigma”… then you're fighting the battle with your audience. Read/Listen to these two headlines: Why What You're Doing Is Not Working for Midlife Women/Clients How to Harness the Power of Misleading Information Feel the difference? In the first there is a hook and it's more negative. Like, you are doing it wrong! Don't make this mistake. There's definitely something to be said for it. There is certainly a large percent of population that will be more likely to click on that than something giving them content. In the second example, however, there's no blame on you the reader. It still suggests something is wrong, yet it implies that I'm going to give you the secret to be a part of the solution instead of telling you you're a part of the problem. They're both potential subject lines or titles for a blog or podcast. Which one speaks to you more? Which one would you click on first? This Very Post's Title There's a time and place for either a negative or positive title. And the best way for you to decide which you use is to test it. I've found many times that say, 3 Biggest Mistakes, will get more clicks than 3 Biggest Secrets. But… don't guess. Start testing, even if only by looking at your statistics on traffic to your blog, or on popularity of YouTube videos. I'll let you in on a secret. I considered variations of two subject lines and narrowed it down to these two before choosing: Are the Words You Use Attracting More Customers? Are the Words You Use Costing You Customers? Obviously, I chose the latter. Because it's more urgent. Do you feel that when you hear it (or read it if you're at the show notes)? Pay attention to how it feels. And remember every one of your customers is going to experience responses unique to their life, sense of humor, prior experience about the topic. When in doubt, run your titles by some of your customers. Come up with at least 10 if not 20 variations of titles. Narrow it down to a few good titles. Use a tool like Headline Analyzer to see how well you're doing. Be conscious of key words in your title you want to use throughout your post text too for S.E.O. Did I just lose you with SEO and the importance of key words? If you want step-by-step support for doing this and treating your content like part of a real business, that attracts real customers I'll link to how to learn more about the 10-month Flipping 50 Fitness Specialist. It's open now for a limited number of trainers and health coaches and only for a limited time. You want to leverage your content to stand out in the noise. So, let's explore some words that are dripping with emotion and how you can use them. I'll give you some examples of how I have used them recently. Avoid Words You Use Costing You Customers with These Examples Gambling (In my TEDx talk after I revealed the poor statistics on science for women and exercise I mentioned it's like "gambling... with really bad odds." That makes listeners who are impacted, angry. Crap (Sit ups are Stupid, Crunches are Crap is the title of a book by a recent Flipping 50 podcast guest. Brilliant and I wish I'd thought of it myself!  The title is important because crap, doo-doo, or the actual word, conveys very succinctly that something stinks. Not you but it.  Lies Everything Women in Menopause Learned About Exercise May Be a Lie was the title of my TEDx talk. I've used it again in blog posts and podcasts. The word lies conveys strong emotion, and certainly brings us together if I'm revealing lies to you that you didn't yet know about. Then I'm going to give you solutions for revenge in the content. Not telling the truth… “I haven't been telling the truth, I was doing it wrong, we've all been doing it wrong.” These words, some exactly this and some implied were also a part of that TEDx talk. Let me also make something clear, you don't create a talk and then move on and create another. Your signature story is your signature story. You go to a Bruce Springsteen concert and expect (or demand) to hear Born to Run, right? James Taylor had better play Shower the People. They may weave in new content, but audiences want and need repetition. Before you start talking about a topic, make sure that in a year and 5 and 10 you still want to be talking about it! Betrayed I've used phrases like betrayed by your body and betrayed by the fitness industry and even medical community in blogs and presentations. It evokes a strong emotion, right? So it's not the same as if you'd been betrayed by a spouse, but betrayal by anyone or anything can make your content memorable, or remarkable. And to stand out, be something liked, shared, commented on that's exactly what you want. What they don't tell you… This one would be easy to insert into a post. What they don't tell you is… When I talk about stress with clients, especially when I'd first published You Still Got It, Girl! I would point out that though our parents probably all had the sex talk with us, what they didn't tell you was that we were going to feel stressed. They didn't give us the ways to abstain from that or to a morning-after solution if we did have stress. There wasn't a stress-talk like the sex talk. In talking about it like that I made it not their fault. And I made them think back to that moment when they had the 5thgrade health session where parents come to talk about puberty and all the things. It got personal because of a memory. Misleading … I'm about to publish a post for my Flipping 50 community about Misleading Fitness Studies and Poll Results from an annual trends report. I do it every year and yet it always a hot topic among both fitness professionals and midlife women seeking intelligent fitness tips. So think about how you can look at 5 of your recent titles and see how you could have put an emotional hook in the title. Myth-buster – This is used commonly in titles and it's almost always a winner. The only exception is if you over use it or it's not an emotionally enough charged title directed at a narrow enough audience. Weight loss Myth-Busting Debunking Weight Loss Myths Those are both potential titles. Yet, they're pretty general. Change to Menopause Weight Loss Myths or to Debunking the Menopause Weight Loss Myths in 3 Recent Fitness Magazine Articles - now you've got something specific, targeted at an audience, and timely with some urgency. Two More Empowering Words   These last two words- and by no means this is an exhaustive list - you may realize you do have emotional words in your posts, emails and conversations already. This podcast is just going to give you more of them to use strategically. These two words are ones you could use in titles and in copy to provide a solution when you might start talking about your program or service. Reclaim Here's an example of a title: How to Reclaim the Muscle You've Been Losing Since 30 That would peak curiosity for one, if women are like, wait a minute! I've been losing muscle? And it gives a solution for them too, and gives a solution to someone who you may already have informed of muscle losses that start after 25. Here's an example of using that word in the body of an article or email: You can reclaim that muscle and in doing so boost your metabolism. Get back This is another way to say reclaim. Try them both out, or use them both. Because remember you're going to be writing, and talking, and creating video about your topic for a long time. You'll want to use different words to appeal to different customers as you do it. There you are! Some specific examples of how to avoid words you use costing you customers! It's Not To Late! Remember it's not too late to change titles of YouTube videos. If it's not getting traction and you know it's good, go revise it. If you really haven't had any traffic to your website articles, and you're sure S.E.O. is something you've never thought about? I'd go in and change it. Then from here on out think about your title, the key words in your title you want to be found for (these are words and phrases your customers say and search for frequently), before you post. For now, what I want you to do is go back and look at your content and title. Are you repeating the words you want to be found for? For instance, the words you use costing you customers is the phrase I'm using in this post. Did you hear/see what I did there? I just inserted the phrase again in the post. Words You Use Costing You Customers (and relationships) Really, this works two ways. The words you use, and the words you don't use could both be costing you customers. And it's no surprise. Because if you've got a family, whether it's kids, a spouse or parents and siblings, it's HOW you say anything that gets the results you want, right? So, try on everything! Read your Instagram posts! Do they sound preachy and teachy? Instead of the motivating and inspiring you were shooting for? That's good homework. Then as you begin to weave in some of these emotion-laded words you'll begin to engage even more.

Dr. Marc Schoen, Assistant Clinical Professor at UCLA’s Geffen School of Medicine and author of the book, Your Survival Instinct is Killing You (http://amzn.to/2uK7sHw) explains how our survival instinct was meant to keep us safe from imminent danger – like a lion who wants to eat you. But today, we don’t need it for that. Consequently, that instinct can cause problems if we don’t learn to regulate it. It can cause us to act inappropriately and can take a toll on our health. So he explains how to manage that instinct and turn down the intensity.

Do you sit all, or most of the day?  Are you more tired, and sore after getting out of your office chair than you are after a workout?  MEMIC’s Director of Ergonomics, Allan Brown, introduces listeners to the concept of how non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT) can increase your overall health and improve safety on the job.  Brown asks, “When you get to that elevator, do you really have to push that button, or can you walk up?”  In this episode, host Pete Koch and Allan Brown explore how basic activities like walking, standing, stretching and even chewing gum can improve workplace ergonomics and employee well-being. Pete Koch: Hello listeners, and welcome to The Safety Experts podcast. Do you sit all day? Are you more tired and sore after getting out of your office chair than you are after a workout? On today's episode, we're going to discover the secrets of NEAT and how to make friends with your seat again. The Safety Experts podcast is presented by MEMIC, a leading worker's compensation provider based here on the East Coast. A new episode of the podcast drops every two weeks featuring interviews with leaders in the field, top executives, MEMIC staff and other industry experts. We discuss how safety applies to all aspects of our lives. I'm your host, Peter Koch, and for the past 17 years, I've been working for MEMIC as a safety expert within the hospitality and construction industries. What I realize is that safety impacts every part of each position that you have or even the tasks that you do. And from one perspective, safety can be seen as not doing something that can be dangerous. Simple cause and effect. If it hurts or it can hurt, then don't do it. This can be pretty easy, if the choice of the for the effect.  This can be pretty easy, if the choice for the effect is immediate and the cause is obvious. The burner on the gas stove is on the fire's hot, don't touch the stove. However, we don't often recognize the effect a behavior can have on us, or that we are too susceptible to the effect of that behavior. So, another perspective on safety could be as an active choice to do something walk at lunch, use protective gear, learn more about the hazards you're exposed to, or stand instead of sitting for part of your day. These simple choices can positively impact you at work and at home. So, for today's episode, make friends with your chair again up your NEAT. How non-exercise activity thermogenesis can help you make friends with your chair again. I'm speaking here with Al Brown, Chief Ergonomist at MEMIC to better understand NEAT how to turn it on and the negative effect sitting has on us. Al's been with MEMIC for 15 years and has helped hundreds of businesses get a handle on ergonomics and the benefits of activity in the workplace.  Al, welcome to the podcast. Al Brown: Thank you, Peter. Appreciate being here. Pete Koch: Very good. Al Brown: Correction there. I'm actually the Director of Ergonomics. I got a promotion. Pete Koch: Very good. The Director of Ergonomics.  Moving from Chief Ergonomist to Director of Ergonomics, that's even better. Even better. But before we dig into that and figure out how our NEAT, how not NEAT our chairs are. So, tell me a little bit more about you at MEMIC and how you got to where you are, and how ergonomics fits in with your place here. Al Brown: Sure. Actually, I'm a physical therapist and that's an unusual person to find, probably in the insurance industry. Pete Koch: It is. Al Brown: In early on in my life as a physical therapist worked on site at industry, Bath Ironworks, L.L. Bean. And one of the one of the things we would do is if someone were injured, we'd walk back to the workspace and take a look at it and look to see if we could change, modify the job, reengineer it. Then we'd start treatment. It was a natural transition to a place like MEMIC, where they focus on workplace safety, specifically ergonomics. So, I became part of the team here and that's what I do now as I actually partner with industry. Go out, take a look at if they've got risks and exposures. Help them see those. Help them understand what might create or cause injury and things they might do to change those things. Pete Koch: Very cool. So that's it's an interesting path to get here, being a physical therapist. But I do see that's a great tie in to be able to take what you would find when you saw your clients as a physical therapist and see the connection back actually in the workplace now that you're here, at MEMIC some of the cause and effect; what you see as the presentation of the patient versus how where it came from, possibly in the workplace and how work and the non-work life contribute to some of the aches and pains that might be there. Al Brown: Oh, sure, it's a continuum. Rarely is it just something that occurs just at work and then it shuts off and punches out at that point and the person goes home. It's a different life. It's a continuum from work right through. So repeated behaviors unconscious behavior are things that are repeated 24 hours a day. Pete Koch: Yeah. And they can kind of catch up with us. Which kind of moves right into our topic today with that concept of NEAT. And so that the where I heard about it first is actually from a book that you turned me on to by Dr. James Levine titled "Get Up and Why Your Chair Is Killing You and What You Can Do About It". And you told me prior to the podcast that you had had the opportunity to see Dr. Levine speak at a conference on this topic. So maybe you could tell us a little bit more about what NEAT is and why should we care? Al Brown: Sure. Yeah, no it was one of those moments. I'm at a conference that was in Las Vegas at the National Ergonomics Conference, and James Levine was one of the presenters. He's an endocrinologist with the Mayo Clinic, had great credentials, has done a lot of research in this area, pretty extensive. You should when you look at the book and you go and you read through, what exactly did they really controlled for a lot of variables. But his premise was that he looked at non-exercise activity, thermogenesis.  When you look at life, about 60 percent of our day is basal activity. Sleeping, sitting in a chair, really not moving much and that accounts for not much NEAT non-exercise activity thermogenesis. You're not burning much fuel doing those things. For example, sitting in a chair, it's only about 300 calories per day to do something like that. Then you have about 10 percent, which is the thermal activity from just eating. So, when you eat, your body actually burns fuel because it's digesting. So that gives you the last 30 percent of the day, which is this non-exercise activity thermogenesis which it can vary between people. You and I might have a 2,000 calorie per day difference. Just because you might be very active walking around, you're a farmer, you’re or you are a housekeeper, you are a manual material handler, you are a brick layer, whatever the case may be. And I might be sitting in front of a computer. And they've discovered that, you know, when you look at trying to control diet and all that kind of stuff, it really doesn't work that well when you're looking at folks that have type 2 diabetes and all those kinds of things, that's what sort of stimulated this research. And they realize it was more related to this need, this non-exercise activity thermogenesis. So, I began thinking, here we are in a world of technology that has crept into our lives and you know, what do we do less now? Pete Koch: Stand, act, be active, walk around. Al Brown: We don't move as much as we used to. So, if you think about it, those little micro movements throughout the day are part of that NEAT. And now we've decreased our NEAT. So, we begin to impact our health. Pete Koch: Yeah, I totally can see that. So that concept of, and even us standing when we did, we made a conscious choice to stand here today. And while we're standing, there's a lot of movement back and forth, side to side, one foot to the other. Moving our hands, moving our arms. But if you swap that out and you sit down at the table for dinner or you sit on the couch to watch television or stream Netflix or something, play a game, whatever that is. There's a lot less of that micro movement that would happen. So, you're burning fewer calories throughout the day. What's the connection between better health and burning more calories? Al Brown: Well, you're processing the food. So, when you consume food, it's kind of like think of a credit card. I always use a credit card analogy where you can use a credit card. You can eat but you got to pay it back. Pete Koch: At some point in time. Al Brown: And if you don't pay it back.  You accumulate interest on that credit card, and it gets expensive and sometimes it can run away and get away from you.  Eating. You can eat. But as long as the intake and the outcome are, are negated, you're fine. You can eat whatever you want as long as the activity level matches that. If the activity level is less than the intake, then you're going to accumulate interest, which is body fat. Things of that nature. And then with that, we know that there are risk factors related to it. Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, all those things that come along with higher risk factors which come along with obesity. Pete Koch: You definitely see that. And then there is also a health benefit in there. As I get to burn more calories, I'm more active, there's more blood flowing, oxygen moving around in my body. I'm going to be healthier overall because like any machine, the human machine, the more we can move and work, the better off we'll be in the long run. Things will stay tuned, we'll be mentally sharper, we'll be physically sharper throughout the day. So that helps us not only at home, but at work and play, whatever we end up doing. Al Brown: Well, yeah. You'll actually find, for example, you know, an example for the listening audience if you take a walk. Pete Koch: Yeah. Al Brown: And when you come back from the walk, you will have a bit of a euphoric feel, you'll feel good. You've released a little bit of an endorphin, probably not the level you would maybe if you were running or lifting, but you still get that endorphin plus you get that filtering of the systems in your body. You know, your heart runs a lot of the pressure within our body, so it moves a lot of your, your blood flow throughout. And again, if you think about it, we live in a world of gravity. So, everything always wants to go down to the feet. So, you need that return. And the return occurs by the heart, creating this positive pressure. However your muscles also contract when you're walking and moving, so your venous system which returns the blood flow back up to your heart from your feet are a system of one way valves and those valves open as the pressure pushes back up and pushes the fluid back up towards your heart and close as the fluid tries to move back down. So, the heart continues the pressure and there's a strain if you're not walking, but if you're out walking, the muscle contraction actually assists the heart. So, you’re actually cleaning the body. And when you clean the body, you get rid of a lot of the impurities. All the nasty stuff that when you sit just sits in your body. Think of it again, you know, I like analogies. You know me. Pete Koch: They're all good. Al Brown: And think of a swimming pool. Your body is like a swimming pool. The water in the pool is kind of like the blood your blood system. And think about the filter not running but having a lot of people swimming in it. And there's a lot of bacteria, dirt, all kinds of things accumulating in the pool, but it's not being cleaned out. And that's because things are static in the pool. That's very much like being static, sitting at your desk, standing at a workstation where you're not moving. Just lying down to get up and move or to, to change position, walk around, whatever the case may be is like turning that filter on and cleaning the pool out. Pete Koch: Right. Al Brown: So you get rid of those impurities. So that's what your blood system does. That's what your lymphatic system does.  And your lymphatic system really does depend on you just moving. It doesn't really have a heart connected, a pump, so to speak. The pump is you. Pete Koch: Moving stuff around, cleaning it out. So, there is a connection in there, not only to overall health, but we can make a connection to even work productivity. Sharper thinking. Feeling better. Moving. Being able to move more freely throughout the day. Not being maybe as sore from repetitive activities. If I can clean the product of work out of the body through movement. Al Brown: Yeah, oh absolutely. Just getting up and moving is, think of that, here's another thing. If eating, if you eat, eat and have dinner, your blood glucose levels go up, you know. But if you go take a walk right after dinner, you can drop that glucose level. It's kind of like stirring it a little bit, like stirring the circuit a little bit. It's not all accumulated on the bottom. And you can drop your blood glucose levels by about 20 percent just by taking that walk. Yeah. Pete Koch: Yeah. Because you're using the fuel. You put fuel in, if I, if your body's in storage mode is just going to store it. If you're active and you go out to use the fuel that you put in as it's being processed, then you don't need to store it. You're actually burning through it. Al Brown: Correct. Pete Koch: Awesome. So, let's talk about the issue that Dr. Levine is targeting here. Is sitting, being the biggest, or one of the biggest challenges to health overall in the United States and a big challenge to our workers. So, I'm going to ask you the question here, is sitting really as big a deal as Dr. Levine makes it out to be? Al Brown: The short answer is yes. The longer answer, which I always will have, is the when we use the number 11 hours, 11 hours of sitting. And the question is, do you sit for 11 hours a day cumulatively? So collectively over the day. If you think of your day, do you spend eleven hours sitting? If you do, your risk factors, your health risk factors go up exponentially. You begin to have the same risks and exposures as someone who smokes fairly heavily. Pete Koch: Wow. Al Brown: And we're talking not only type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and those types of things, we're even talking about breast cancer. So, the risks go up if you sit, if you start to close in on 11 hours a day. So, what can you do to make differences? So, you know, in this technology creep that we're looking and I call it technology creep, because what happens is more and more things we do are related to the computer from, you know, shopping, getting your media content, setting up meetings. I don't have to go down and talk to someone at MEMIC, I can send them an e-mail, or I can text them. So, we, you know, we move less. So, with that technology, we sit more, and we creep towards that 11 hours of inactivity. Pete Koch: Sure. So a lot of the times, you know, you go back 20, 30 years and sitting wasn't as, it was common, it was something that we looked to for more relief to get kind of take a break, get off our feet. But we sit more than we think. So, within the book, there was an interesting set of questions, a quiz that Dr. Levine posed the sitting that the chair quiz to see how comfortable you are with your chair. Al Brown: Did you pull it out of the book? Pete Koch: I did, I pulled it right out of the book. So, we're going to take that quiz, right, So I'm going to ask the question.  And then we're both going to keep track in our head of yes and no questions. Al Brown: OK. Pete Koch: So if you answer yes, you get a point. If you answer no, you get no points. Al Brown: Okay. Low score wins, right? Pete Koch: Low score wins. Al Brown: This is a game of golf. Pete Koch Kind of and I'm really bad at golf. Al Brown: But that ups your NEAT, if you don't take the cart, walk around. Pete Koch Yeah. All right. Al Brown: Opportunities. Pete Koch: It does. OK. So, the first question. Pete Koch: Number one, do you work seated at a chair? Al Brown: Oh. Pete Koch: Got it. Al Brown: I do. Pete Koch: All right. So, I think I'm going to have to give me a one there. Al Brown: Aha, me too. Pete Koch: Most of what I do, although a lot of what I do is standing whether I'm doing a training or I'm going to do, I try to have sometimes meetings with people when I get to get up and walk around. But a lot of the work that I do is going to be in a chair. Al Brown: So you find opportunities to up your NEAT? Pete Koch: I do. I try. Al Brown: Because you're cognizant of that sitting. Yeah and driving. We drive a lot. Pete Koch: Oh, my gosh. We drive all the time. And that's another place where, you know, if I go back before I worked for MEMIC, the job I had wasn't travel based. So, I spent a lot more time on my feet in the transition between that and a more sedentary job was very challenging for me. I mean, it's taken me quite a while to sort of overcome that and figure it out. So, number one is the, have you worked seated in a chair? I'm going to give myself a one for that. So, number two is, have you ever shopped on the Internet? Pete & Al: Mm hmm. Mm hmm. Mm hmm. I have. Yeah. Guilty. I have to give us a one on that one there. Pete Koch: So do you watch, number three: Do you watch TV or a streaming service while seated for an hour or more a day? Al Brown: Oh, geez. Yes. I watched Netflix last night. Pete & Al: Netflix, Amazon Prime. Also, YouTube. Holy cow. Yeah. Yeah. And sometimes you get there on and only watch it for a little bit. Right. Yeah. Yeah. You got to turn the auto play off. That's right. Yeah. And then you're the you know, the cliffhanger. You got to go to the next episode and all a sudden, it's three hours later. Right. Yeah. But I pull the plug at two hours sometimes. Yes. Pete Koch: OK. Number four. Do you ever eat while watching TV or in the car. Pete & Al: Oh yes. Yes. Yeah. So, I'm going to have to I'll say no to the television, but I'm going to have to say yes to the car just because the car for me. Television we don't snack or, you know, maybe a cup of tea, coffee. Sure. That's it. Have, have you ever Internet dated. Al Brown: Interstate dated? Pete & Al: Internet dated. Internet, no. I'm going to have to give us both a 0, A big 0. Sure. Computer didn't exist when I met my wife. Pete Koch: Yeah. Number six, I think. Do you own a recliner? Pete & Al: No, I do not. I don't either own recliner. Very good. Pete Koch: If you go to a party, do you seek out a chair or a stool? No. Is that because you don't go to parties or because you don't seek out chairs or stools? Al Brown: I'm typically not invited to parties. No, I don't. I tend to stand just because you end up, you get engaged in the conversation. It will be like this where I am probably more comfortable standing and talking. Pete Koch: Yeah. So, me to. I'm the same, same there as well. So that's going to be a zero. And then at if you look at your sofa, does it have an imprint of your butt in it. Al Brown: No. Pete Koch: Is that because it's new? Al Brown: No it's old, and it doesn't have an imprint. Doesn't, I don't spend a lot of time there. And change position all the time. Swap the cushions. Right, go back and forth. Depends on whoever wants the light to do an activity while watching TV, they get that side. Pete Koch: So this, this question might apply more to millennials than you and me, but I still think it's an important question to ask, especially in this day and age. So, do you spend more time with friends electronically than in real life? Pete & Al: No, I do not facetime, text, and all that. I talk directly to them.  Try to go see him. Yeah. Pete Koch: And the last question. Have you ever fantasized about just sitting? Al Brown: I was on top of Katahdin once and I was been walking for 8 hours. I guess you could say I was fantasizing about just sitting sown just sitting down to give my hips and legs a break. But no, not typically. Pete Koch: Yeah. Not typically either. All right. So, let's total them up. So, we've got one, two, three, four. So, we have four totals. And then the possible last one could be five. So if we total this up in one point for each answer and for those of you who are, who are doing this quiz with us on online here, for if you have zero, then you don't need to read Dr. Levine's book. You're good. You don't have a great relationship with your chair. And you can just keep on going. If you got two, one to two, you are considered a chair pre-addict. Hmm. Three to five. He gives us a Chair Addict. So we are, we are smack dab in Chair Addiction Al, because we're at 4.  Al Brown: Time for rehab. Pete Koch: Yeah, and six to eight, then you're in the Chair Imprisoned. And if you have hit 9 or 10, you are a Chair-a-holic. Yeah. Al Brown: Ouch. Pete Koch: Yeah, ouch. Wow okay. So relationship with your chair, we've talked some about like the body's response to not sitting at a biological level, so the cellular level, how the heart works in cleaning it out, and our endocrine system. But what do you see when you start talking to other workers or go into different businesses about the physical effects of sitting in those people? So, what do you see? Al Brown: Well, you know, I see musculoskeletal changes, you know, changes in their, in their body. Muscle length, muscle tightness. For example, when you sit down your hip flexor, the muscle on the front side of your thigh.  And it starts at the front side of your thigh, kind of right at the bottom where your pocket is, and it passes through your pelvis and attaches to your lumbar spine. So, it kind of goes right through your pelvis.  In a sitting position that muscle is in a shortened position. So, if you sit for an extended period time and what happens to muscles if they are in a position for a long period of time is they begin to adapt or if they're short, they shorten to that position. If you ever stretch something, it'll overstretch in the other direction. But in this particular case, your hip flexors, your hamstrings, which are the muscles on the back side of your thigh because your knees are bent will also shorten. You will oftentimes when you're sitting, you will tend to, the head will come forward a bit. Or you may recline. But in any case, you'll shut off your core muscles, particularly the front core muscles, your abdominal area, your back muscles will actually, your upper shoulder area, will get overstretched and lengthened.  If they're chronically lengthened and overstretched, that can lead to a condition called fibromyalgia or myofascial discomfort, which is connective tissue that is constantly under strain. Very difficult to recover from that simply because you have to either you have to shorten it, but that means contracting this irritated tissue. So, it's a very difficult thing to kind of change back. So those, those muscles in your body and to your chest area tends to close down because everything's in front of us. So, you, and those impact us. So, when we go to stand back up and those muscles are short, they change the mechanics of standing. So, if you think of us as a game of Jenga, we begin to start knocking some of those blocks out of position. And instead of a nice stout stack of blocks that are well-organized, the tight muscles begin to pull us forward or begin to flatten our back. We begin to lose our lumbar curve. We begin to have shortened hamstrings with knee pain. And that's all because of that prolonged static sitting posture. Pete Koch: So there's a musculoskeletal change that happens from sitting all the time. And when that occurs. So, what does that what does that look like, like when you talked about it, it changes the mechanics of how we stand back up. But if you've been sitting for a long time, that's your habit. Let's say that you took the quiz and you're in that chair imprisoned or chair-a-holic. Like most of the stuff that you do, I sit at work.  I spend a long time in the car commuting back and forth or on the bus or in a plane. And then I'm at home and I am doing work at a computer at home, or I'm exhausted when I get home. So, I just like to sit on the couch and play a video game or stream movies. So, I'm seated for eleven hours or more a day. What is it? What does it look like in a person? Like, what do you physically look like? Al Brown: Well, you, you know, one of the things I didn't mention in that that little list on the front side is the, you will tend to lose some of your muscle mass around your buttock area, your gluteus medius, gluteus maximus. Those are sort of your hip area. So, things you'll see, you'll see sort of a forward posture flattened back. But when during a gait, if someone's walking, you will see what we call in the medical world a Trendelenburg gait and the Trendelenburg gait, you have to realize that when you stand on your right hip, you weight bear on your right leg, your muscles on the right side of your hip contract tighten and they lift your pelvis to keep your belt, let's use the belt as a reference point, level with, with the earth or slightly elevate it.  The left side so that the left leg can move through. And then when you weight bear on the left side, the left side contracts, lifts and brings your right leg through.  So, your upper core, your upper body stays pretty vertical. When you've been sitting for a long time and you've lost that muscle mass on those hips, you will see people wobble. So, you'll see their head when they weight bear on the right, their head will shift over on the right hip to assist that muscle that's weak and bring their leg through. So it's sort of a wobbling gait when they're walking and you realize that person probably has got a lot of weakness in their hip areas, which will eventually lead to hip pain, which will probably eventually lead to total hip replacement, which really doesn't solve the problem. Pete Koch: It doesn't. Al Brown: Because we're just taking care of the joint. We haven't taken care of the strength of the core and the pelvic floor and that hip musculature. Pete Koch: So it's really a long-term effect. Like we could have some short-term acute effects. Like well for example, when I get out of a car, if I've been sitting in a car for two, sometimes three hours, though I try not to do that anymore. I'm sore like my hip flexors are tight, my low back is tight, my shoulders are tight, and it's because within the car I am like you said, my hamstrings are shortened, and my hip fractures are shortened and head forward in my posture.  And I'm in that single position for a lot of that time. Even if I do try to move, I can't move as much as I want to or should, and I'm sore. So that acute change for us or the acute effect is some short-term pain which can be alleviated with movement. But the long-term effects is what you're describing is that there could be the long term effects of that constant sitting is loss of muscle mass and eventually some degradation into the joints that will support because we're not ergonomically functioning the way we're supposed to anymore. Al Brown: Correct. And you know, again, it's that if you go back to the premise of art or talk today, which is NEAT, we suddenly begin to change or reduce that NEAT. And it does have those cardiovascular impacts that we talked about earlier button. But the physical effects are also right there. So, and then those two tend to feed off each other. And if you think about it, we really depend on independent movement of our body around the earth, so to speak. So, we're slowly painting ourselves back in a corner of inactivity. If you've ever seen the word the movie, Wall-E. Pete Koch: Yes. Al Brown: You know, where humans basically were chair bound and they really had no course. They couldn't stand up. And the little robots had to do everything for them. Think about that. And where we're heading. Pete & Al: We're getting there. We're developing robots. Yeah. Help us do those things right now. Yeah, sure. Yeah. Pete Koch: Okay, so lots of effects there for long-term sitting. And we've, we went through the quiz. We've talked some about what we already do. What are some, you know, when you go to a workplace, what are some areas where you find people seated for, for long periods of time? Al Brown: Well, we try to one first introduce this concept of because again, not everybody understands NEAT and understands the basis for, I might come in and say, you know, let's do job rotation or, or let's take a stretch break. And people think of that as "stretch breaks don't work" and, or let's collaborate, let's in an office setting might encourage folks to go and receive somebody that's come to the front office that they're going to meet with back as opposed to just, you know, "send 'em in" type thing. So, you're encouraging that movement, but you have to get them to understand that foundation on the front side of why we're doing this. If you look at the transition of our office over the last five to six years, you've seen an office that was static, cubicle driven. Stay inside that cubicle. You had a six or a 10 by 10 space and that was your space. And typically, you didn't leave it to more open space, more collaborative space. Rooms that you can go to, desks that go up and down. So, we try to encourage industry to look at those kinds of solutions where you're encouraging movement throughout the day. It's funny because one of the when James Levine was down in Vegas doing this presentation, there were about 400 vendors and probably 350 of those were dynamic desks. Or as we may know, most people know them as standing desks. So, the perception was that, oh, let's just stand up at work. And in fact, that's, that's an OK thing. And it's great because it takes those sore muscles like you dealt with in the car, and it allows you in the office to change frequently and again, if you look at Harvard, the T.H. Chan School of Public Health, Jack Dennerlein, Nicolaas Pronk, a lot of those folks that have done some of the work down there, they you know every 30 minutes stand up, 30 minutes sit down. And about half the day up, half the day down. It doesn't solve the physiological issues that Levine is talking about. And he's not saying stand up and that'll fix the problem. That is, I call it a three-legged stool. And we look at wellness. One is you sitting. We're going to have to sit. That's here. Computers are here. We're not going to change that.  Two, given the opportunity to change position by, and allowing, like you in the car. Let you get up, stand, move, different position, put the muscles, reset the body. And then three of that stools, that third leg is “Go Move”. Don't work through the stretch break. Don't eat at your desk and continue the work. You take a walk. Same thing even in a manufacturing facility. Some folks will get up, but they'll go and sit down in the cafeteria and eat and then go back and sit right back down and do what they're doing. This, an example this morning, just myself personally, I realized this conversation is coming up today and I said, Gee I get my cup of coffee. I go out. I sit in the chair and I look out at the lawn. And today I said, no, I'm going to walk around the lawn drinking my coffee. So that's what I did. So, I just took that opportunity to up my NEAT. So, we try to find those wind, but you really have to educate folks on the front side why we're doing this. Pete Koch: I would agree with that totally, that the why around movement is important. And I think also identifying all of the, all of the times when we're not active like, well, we're almost either required by a particular task or by a job or we are requiring ourselves through habit to stay in one position and helping people identify those, those times throughout the day when you might be approaching 11 hours in the chair or even eight hours in the chair is quite a bit of time to think about that throughout our day and then the more we can be active. I like that connection, that three-legged stool, stool, sit, stand, move. So basically, you can have two different positions that you need to swap between the two all day. But even if you're just sitting and standing and changing your position at your desk for eight hours, it's not going to be as beneficial to you if you get up and move through a break to do something else.And the standing piece too, just as a sidebar.  The fidgeter is going to have a higher NEAT level than the non-fidgeter.  And you yourself know, are you a fidget or not a fidgeter? You know, I mean, you wiggle back, and I mean, we're here having a conversation. Pete Koch: I'm totally a fidgeter.  Al Brown: And I'm on the right hip, then I'm over on the left hip. So we're fidgeting. And when folks stand, we really try to encourage them that when you're standing, don't just stand, you know, move back and forth, bend your leg.  Do toe raises, you know, do anything that kind of creates actual contraction muscle movement in the lower stretches.  Because, again, remember, it assists that feedback loop of bringing fluids back up to the heart and filtering the system. So, anything you can do along those lines are going to be beneficial. Pete Koch: Yeah, that's great. So, we're going to take a quick break and we'll come back with Al to talk a little bit more about NEAT and then discuss some potential solutions that we have and our ideas for the workplace. But we'll take a break and we'll be right back. Pete Koch: Welcome back to the Safety Experts podcast. Today, we're talking with Al Brown, director of ergonomics at MEMIC. So, let's jump back in with more questions right away. So, let's get back to I have a sedentary job. I'm going to drive a lot. I'm going to sit at my job, and I enjoy at home just being still.  So fine, I’m going to sit there, but I'm going to try to work out. So, I'm going to after work, I might go to the gym and work out for an hour. High intensity workout. Going to sweat a lot to get a lot of steps in and get my heart rate up. I feel really good afterwards. But how much is that really combating the long term sitting for that day? Al Brown: Unfortunately, it's not combating it much. They actually coined the term, I think it was in Australia or New Zealand, the active couch potato. And I'm just as guilty as you because necessity sometimes dictates my life in terms of drive a certain distance to do my job. And then, you know, generate reports or whatever the case may be. So, I'm sedentary. So same, I feel like I need something. So that pill I take is the walk, the run, the lift. And unfortunately, we do that in a short window of time. And in that short window of time, we you know sweat like you said. But then when we're done, what do you do? We sit down for dinner or then Netflix or whatever TV. Pete & Al: Fantasize about that chair. I just want to sit down. I'm tired. Al Brown: So it doesn't, it negates. Now, granted, you are creating a good muscular musculoskeletal system. You're strengthening your muscle tone and you're getting some muscle memory back. All those things are good. So, don't stop your workout. That's important. What you want to do is find strategies to add activity throughout the day. If you go back to James Levine's research and I encourage you all to kind of go back and look at that, because, you know, it's interesting. When he did his presentation out at the National Ergonomics Conference, he never stood still. He moved constantly and he did it purposely. And we're talking, you know, a room with 200 people and that he just raced around the whole time making his point. But what you want to do is in his research, he looked at folks that were lean, that had low risk factors actually moved, and again this was a very comprehensive study, two and a half hour, two and a half hours more a day.  And that's not I'm going to go out and run for an hour. And then I'm going to go work out for another hour and then do something for a half hour. These were little tiny increments. These were 10-minute increments throughout the day where I'm going to walk down and go get a cup of coffee at the corner. I'm going to walk over and get some lunch. I'm going to walk here and collaborate. So collectively, and those things to a certain extent are unconscious for a lot of folks.  You have a lot of folks that will not leave their chair, and that's unconscious, too. They don't rule our subconscious. They just don't realize they don't move. So, you have to try to find strategies that get you, and again, there's apps and all that kind of good stuff, but it's a behavior change. So, if you are locked in and you don't really think about, it's easy to push that button for the elevator and skip the stairs. Going "I don't want to do the stairs", nobody's watching and no one really cares. It's your body, it's you. It's your physiology. You would think you should care. Pete Koch: Yeah. Al Brown: Because it's the quality of life down the road. So, you begin to try to find those strategies that get you to move more.  Park across the parking lot. Don't park close. But park far away. When you go to the store in the weekend, park further away, protect the car doors. Don't get into the whole mess. I got to get close to the door. I have to laugh, we have a large outdoor retail store up in the Freeport area and I see a lot of people circling, trying to get as close to the door,  and meanwhile, it says "Outdoor hiking, camping, store" I'm thinking. Pete Koch: Yeah, exactly. Al Brown: Park further away! Pete Koch: You can do it! You can do it! Al Brown: So it's one of those things that you have to find those opportunities, be it at work. And again, management has to support that, too. Pete Koch: Sure. Al Brown: You know, if you have a management style that says if you're not at your desk, you're not working everything else is going to fail. You need that support at the upper management level that says, "I want folks to move and change." And what they have to realize is by allowing that you re-oxygenate the body, you rejuvenate the body.  Instead of getting that 2:00 o'clock in the afternoon "logy-ness", you come back, and you know, you produce a letter or you know manufacturing, you don't stick your finger someplace where it shouldn't be.  You're fresher. So again, I go back to the analogy of, you know, if I had, if I drove a truck for work and I said I don't have time to rotate the tires and change the oil and I make more money if I just keep going. Eventually I'm going to see the engine sort of burst into smoke and the tires fall off and major repairs. Oh, my gosh. Where if I take that time to actually do preventative maintenance and service it, I just keep chugging along and keep producing. So same thing with a human being. We're no different. We're a mechanical system within the world of gravity that we need to take time and sort of refresh ourselves, reset ourselves, and the benefits outweigh themselves from, you know, from staying at the desk. I mean, get out. You move around. You've come back actually are much better at what you do. Pete Koch: Those are really good points. And in some cases, I think it could be easier for someone that has a job at a desk or has a job in a place where they are allowed to get up. What about some of those positions, like a truck driver, like someone in manufacturing who literally is measured on production. I've got to get X amount of pieces out per day or I'm order picking or I'm doing something else. What are some strategies for someone who has a job that's based on the amount of time that they can actually do the job? What are some things that they can do to up their NEAT? Pete & Al: Mm hmm. Mm hmm. Now in order pickers got probably a lot of NEAT. Yeah. Yeah, that's true. That's true. Al Brown: It's like a mail person that, you know, walks and delivers mail. I think, I always thought the fantasy job would be to do that because you are, you're shooting the breeze, you're talking to people and you're walking and you're delivering mail. Of course, you're hanging it off one shoulder, so you have to change it every so often. But for those folks like the truck driver, again senior management has to support, let me pull off and take a stretch break occasionally. But, even then, truck driving is one of those tough things that you just, it's time, money and get down the road and you can't get up out of the seat to, to move around. So, when you do get out of the truck, first of all, I have to be very careful, because when you're getting out, you don't want to jump down. A lot has changed physiologically like you and I talked about earlier in the cast. So, you have to get yourself down safely. But when you're on the ground, then you reset and then you take time and opportunity to kind of move around 10, 15, 20 minutes. Don't just go and sit down somewhere else. Actually, take a walk around the rest stop, take a walk around the truck, give yourself some time to kind of recover.  Then back into the truck and then next stop, same thing. Find those 10 to 15-minute opportunities to just walk around and lengthen your body and kind of get things going. And you certainly should be someone that when you get home, you go for the walk.  And go, don't rush it.  Just take your time. Pete Koch: Nice and easy. Al Brown: A nice, slow walk through the woods is better than a quick run. Pete Koch: Yup. Al Brown: Because again, it's going to be that slow burn that's kind of important.  You know, in, in Maine, you know, we have long summer days, you know. So instead of our mindset sometimes is, oh, it's, it's four o'clock end of the day, or four-thirty or five o'clock end of the day and we tend to get home, you know, where we still have sunlight. Pete & Al: Habits. Yeah. Its habits. Al Brown: So extend that time, extend that time. Go out and do something, mow the lawn, go out and garden, go out and find those opportunities where if, you know, you're restricted like a truck driver, you have to find those on the other side. Now, if it's manufacturing or something like that, again, getting folks out to take a walk at lunch, take a, you know, get them to understand the value of resetting.  Job rotation.  You know, have them go move to a different job. Pods, if they have a pod and they have three machines, I worked with an auto manufacturing, that you know they're at this pod and then they move over to this pod. So, it's allowing them to move and use different muscle groups. But they're moving. It's again, it's that sort of getting the body to move. Pete Koch: And that can fit into the lean manufacturing concept.  And also, really, when we're thinking about the workplace, regardless whether it's truck driving or whether it's manufacturing or if it's the office space or it doesn't matter what it is, we're looking at that concept of as a, as an employer, I need to look at my workplace from a productivity standpoint.  But also, to maximize the productivity, I also have to keep in mind how well my employees can move within the workplace to up their NEAT in order to maintain their productivity.  Because a worker that is able to move more freely throughout the day, to, to bring more blood and oxygen to those muscles and those muscle groups will be more productive throughout the day, not just in the morning when they get there or in the evening when they first get to work depending on their shift. Al Brown: Correct, yes.  Pete Koch: So it's a more, not so much a holistic concept of it, but it's really looking at how we, we take the workplace and we can help the worker be healthier within the workplace. Yeah, those are all interesting concepts. Al Brown: Plus lower injury rates, too. I mean, because, again, that static, not moving posture, you know, and doing repeated tasks, you know, those are where we see high injury rates.  So, the movement within this does improve the wellness of the worker, but it also reduces the risk and exposure to those types of injuries we see in a work environment. Pete Koch: Sure. Now, how about the fidgeting part? Like so I you know I was thinking about that truck driver. When you were talking about the truck driver and I've you know, I've got a long road to go, heavy traffic sometimes.  There’re not many places, depending on where you're traveling, that you can pull off a big rig someplace safely and get out and wander around so I can fidget help within? Al Brown: I think, I think it was Levine's book. He said chewing gum is, you burn more calories chewing gum than you do actually sitting at a computer. So, if you're driving, chew some gum. Pete Koch: Chew some gum. Al Brown: Yeah, those types of things.  You know, I have a gripper that I keep in my vehicle that I'm actually sitting.  And I'm constantly working on gripping because my hands, you know, I used to do a lot of manual work and I lost a lot of my hand strength. So, I said, I've got to improve my hand strength. So, I just picked up a little gripper that I keep. And when I get to a stoplight, you know, instead of looking at my text or phone, I don't do that. I pick up my gripper and I, I do a couple repetitions. So, exercise bands, they sell those nowadays. You know, great, you can throw them in your suitcase if you travel or you're in the truck. It doesn't take a lot of space. You can take them out, do a little exercise. We're working with a company now that does every time, they get to their third stop, they come out and do three movements and three stretches, three sets or one set. So, it's sort of integrated into one, their job performance they're expected to do it.  And two, you know, they that it just becomes almost routine or habit for them. So those are the kinds of things you want to do is sort of change. Really have to take a critical look at your, it's like anything else, a critical look at your behaviors. You know, it's like money. Again, if you go back to if you don't know where you're spending your money, then you'll be struggling with money for a long time. You really have to look and be critical of where I spend every dime. And OK, now I'm going to start doing these things to save money. Same thing with your NEAT, which is even more important because I am going to tell you, your health is more important than your money. And you know, so you really need to take a critical look and be honest with yourself. And then also when your kind of trying to up that NEAT, be honest with yourself. When you get to that elevator, what do you really have to push that button, or can you walk up? And it's going to be harder. But in the long run by up in your NEAT and lowering your risk factors, you're going to feel a lot better later on and compressing your comorbidities and life, those aches and pains and cardiovascular type things. Pete Koch: Those are all really great points Al for that.  And I think the bottom line for us as we close out the podcast today is that kind of understanding first, looking at our habits, understanding where our NEAT level is right now, and then what are we going to actively do to increase that throughout the day? So, the overall, like you said, the slow burn movements that we have. So, don't stop those high intensity activities that you might have outside of work or outside of your relaxation or other activities.  But look towards what can I do to increase my activity in between or during some of those more sedentary tasks or jobs that we have. Al Brown: Exactly. Pete Koch: Awesome. So, thanks again today. And to all the listeners out there, really appreciate that.

So, we really appreciate that. So, we're wrapping up today's podcast here with Al Brown, Director of Ergonomics at MEMIC. I really appreciate you sharing your expertise with us today. Any final comments for our listeners out there today? Al Brown: Pete? No, thank you for the invitation. It's one of those things, you know, find those opportunities to improve, improve your NEAT. I'm an exerciser.  I'm an active couch potato.  And I still need to find those areas, places where I can improve my NEAT. You were very good today by, I was walking towards the elevator and you said, "Aren't you going to take the stairs?"  And so, the fact that we did this whole podcast standing up, which is a great thing. The time flew by and we feel better. We're probably looking forward to sitting down now. Pete & Al: At some point reacquaint ourselves with our chair. There we go. Al Brown: But not spend too much time there. Pete Koch: I'm not fantasizing about it, for sure. Al Brown: No neither am I.

Michael and I talk about why it's important to know the distinction between sympathy and empathy, what you can do if you want start applying empathy, and why knowing the differences between the types of empathy is important. I really enjoyed my conversation with Michael and I hope you do as well. Talking Points Michael suggests that finding empathy, let alone applying it, is as elusive as I think it is Michael digs into what empathy is but more importantly... what it isn't Michael talks about the different types of empathy I ask Michael how someone who is trying to help or advise someone when you're not able to completely empathize with them because their circumstances are so foreign to you Michael discusses the importance of asking questions and why follow up questions are so critical What is a virtue you need have in your toolkit to help you in applying empathy? When did Michael realize that empathy was something he needed to explore? How important is it for people to learn the language of empathy and apply it regularly? We talk about an easy way to understand the difference between sympathy and empathy How does Michael go about helping organizations foster empathy? How can someone take what Michael teaches and apply it on a personal level? What is a simple step that someone can take to start applying empathy today? Quote “If you go to a doctor and tell them 'My knee hurts' they don't jump into 'Well, there's five different surgeries we could do to fix your knee.' They're going to do some x-rays, they're going to some CAT scans, and what they might find is that you've got a bum ankle. And your ankle is going to throw off your knee a lot. So the root cause isn't going to be the knee. The knee's just where it's showing up." - Michael Ventura Helpful Links https://appliedempathy.com/ (Applied Empathy) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__RbyqxDDN8 (Your Lack of Patience is Killing You) https://www.netflix.com/title/81010166 (Brené Brown: The Call to Courage) While understanding and applying empathy may not seem helpful to your personal productivity, once you have a better grasp of empathy it can save you time when looking inward and dealing with others. Understanding and applying empathy can help you stay in touch with your humanity in a world that is driven by getting things done. I'm going to try to more on applying empathy to my work and my life and I encourage you to do the same. And Michael's book is a great place to start.

Your mindset is KILLING YOU!

On this episode of the show, I speak with Rob Jacobs. Rob is a leader in the walking for health movement and the co-founder of Unsit - a company that created the first-ever treadmill you can use under your standing desk at work. We talk about why standing simply works when it comes to boosting personal productivity, why sitting too long has similar effects as smoking, why walking is a great way to problem-solve, and more. As someone who works standing up a good deal of time (I actually record most of my podcast interviews while standing), I really enjoyed diving deeper into this topic. I hope you'll enjoy it as well.

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!

Blake Calhoun isn't a celebrity director, he's not a health & wellness expert, and he's not going to drop any giant knowledge-bombs on you in this episode. He's just a hard-working filmmaker and editor doing his best to raise two kids and create cool stuff in the process. Through virtually no effort whatsoever, Blake has lost over 30 pounds (and kept it off in the last year), eradicated himself from a daily soda & junk food habit, and has the energy left after a long day to spend time with his family. If that doesn't make you a superhero in the film industry, I don't know what does. By simply following a few of the steps we talk about in this episode, you can completely change your life for the long term as Blake did, and you can do it one small step at a time. Full disclaimer: Blake is the owner of Cinemoti, one of the sponsors of this episode. If you're a filmmaker and you don't know about Cinemoti, you need to check them out. He's doing some really cool stuff. Our Sponsors: GeekDesk CineMoti Topics of Conversation: How Blake and I met Blake’s new healthy habits What is simple is not always easy... Blake’s journey to better health and wellness What Blake has noticed since he changed his diet The difference between fad dieting and a lifestyle change The reasons why Blake decided to make this lifestyle change -- his children “You really can change your health just by what you eat” Why BMI isn’t a very good measure of health Blake’s roadmap to better health It’s the little things that help!

Greg Galvin describes a captivating process of how he has turned rebellion on its head, to work in his favor. He offers numerous stories of experimentation that have led to a very different lifestyle than he was brought up with and brought him to take his level of health and wellness to a completely different place than he ever could have imagined. Methods for reducing portion sizes, surprising benefits of green juices, weekly exercise classes and how to quit addictions like sugar and caffeine are all subjects that Greg delves into in our conversation. Creating small challenges and experiments have been the key for this self-starter to initiate lasting lifestyle changes.
