Would you like to increase your chances of living to a ripe old age in good health? What is it that centenarians do to live to 100 and beyond? Let’s dive into some of the insights from Dan Buettner’s book, The Blue Zones, and talk about some of the common traits that centenarians have in these particular places. Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/podcasts-blog for the complete show notes of every podcast episode. Topics Discussed in this Episode: Centenarians and the blue zones The 9 common traits among centenarians across the blue zones Natural movement and Animal Flow The 80% rule The power of belief Key Takeaways: The 5 places that have been identified as blue zones with the highest number of centenarians are Sardinia, Ikaria in Greece, Costa Rica, Loma Linda in California, and Okinawa in Japan. The 9 things centenarians have in common across the blue zones They move naturally. They have a very strong sense of purpose. They have a downshift. The 80% rule: Eat until you’re 80% full and then stop. They include lots of plants, especially beans, into their diet. Vegetables constitute a very big part of their diet and they eat only a very minimal amount of meat. They have moderate alcohol consumption. They belong to a faith-based community. For these people, the family came first. They belong to a tribe, meaning they have real social networks. Our bodies are designed for natural movement. The more we move our bodies naturally, the better our fitness, the better our musculature, the denser our bones, and the more freshly oxygenated blood get distributed throughout our body. Certain genetic predispositions can mean that you have a gene that allows you to convert very small amounts of alcohol into good cholesterol, but that’s not the case for everyone. Contribution and helping others are hugely beneficial for the nervous system, and therefore, for our overall health. We’re now coming to understand that loneliness is really impacting people’s health in a very significant way. Action Steps: Consider one or two (or more, if you can) of the traits that centenarians have and see if you can weave that into your lifestyle. Leanne said: “We want to live a full, happy, energetic, and vital life for as long a possible, rather than just living for as long as possible but perhaps not being useful or vital or having movement of our limbs, and be able to be mobile and sharp cognitively and all the rest of that stuff.” “Looking after, mentoring, guiding the younger generations was another thing that really made these older people, the older generation, feel vital and feel alive and feel useful. All of which, I think, is essential for overall wellbeing.” Thanks for listening!

Here we go, another WS - thanks for listening :) So we're staying on the biohacking thread that has run through a lot of these Short podcasts and it was inspired by our last wriinkle Podcast guest Ben Lewell, who shared lots of actionable ways we can hack our lives to get out of a rut, to entrer flow states, to be more productive etc etc ..give that episode a listen if you haven't already. In this one we're talking Blue Zones - these are very specific loactions/communities around the world where the people live for significantly longer on average. So I dive into what the commonalities between these places and it's people are and how we can incorporate these into our own lives to potwntially stay healthy and active (and alive!) for longer. Get in touch with your thoughts on Blue Zones and it'd be great if you can share any tips for longevity you might have recieved from elderly family members.

Nick Elvery is a Peak Performance Coach with an amazing back story. Having been expelled from school, he left at 17 and took on a series of odd jobs before sinking into a 12 year drug and alcohol addiction. After hundreds of failed attempts to get clean and sober, Nick had the tenacity to keep trying until he was able to overcome the destructive forces of addiction and get on with his life. It’s a great story, and his experiences inform a lot of the work he does now. Nick works with stressed out and overwhelmed entrepreneurs who want to get back in control of their business and their lives. In this episode we talk about Nick’s story, what kind of challenges his clients face and how he helps them solve them, and what it takes to be fit for the rigours of modern life and business. If you’re an entrepreneur, this is definitely worth listening to.
