Podcasts about people who've lived

ABOUT THIS EPISODE Psychologist Laurie Santos offered a course on well-being in 2018, and it became the most popular course ever offered at Yale University. Her online course also developed a strong following. Now she had a podcast called The Happiness Lab. I had a chance to talk with her about human happiness, and the ways in which our intuitions about what promotes happiness are often wrong. Our discussion includes a discussion of happiness in a time of a pandemic and of physical distancing, but also about happiness and race.

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!

It’s definitely something to look forward to! Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/podcasts-blog for the complete show notes of every podcast episode. Topics Discussed in this Episode: What you can expect from Insights Whether or not you’re investing or withdrawing from your future health Studying blue zones and the formula for longevity Key Takeaways: A lot of people live quite a fast-paced life with a lot of stress, not a lot of downtime, and not a lot of recovery. And whether they admit it to themselves or not, they are concerned about what sort of price they might be paying later on. Blue zones are places that have the highest proportion of centenarians in the world. They have more people who are living to be 100 years old than anywhere else in the world. And not only that they are living to be 100 but they are still mobile, they are still vital and energetic and very happy with life. What our bodies are designed to do is move on a daily basis. Unhappy people are more inclined toward serious health conditions like cardiovascular disease. Action Steps: Invest in your health. Grow your own vegetables. And if you can’t, then make sure you’re eating organic, locally-sourced vegetables. Do lots of daily life movements. By this, we don’t mean structured exercise but just moving your body a lot in the course of a day. Have strong social connections. Make sure to get enough sleep. Clean up your diet and manage your blood sugar levels. Manage your stress and avoid inflammation. Leanne said: “[Health] a little bit like a bank account. You’re either paying in or you’re withdrawing. And eventually, there’s going to come a time when you got to reconcile that.” “Stress kills lots of people. Stress causes lots of serious health conditions. Stress makes life unhappy. And when we’re unhappy, we also know now that that can affect our health.” Thanks for listening!

Alex J. Swanson is the founder of Nutrition Genome and creator of the software Genetrition. Alex is the son of our own “Ask Cheri” guest, Cheri Swanson.  Influenced by his mom, he has taken nutrition to the next level.  Alex explains how the Nutrition Genome works through a saliva sample from a cheek swab which holds your very own DNA.  This is then shipped to a lab where they sequence and genotype it which is how to get DNA.  This  gives them a data file on all your genes.   They then look at the data and make sense of it.  This information relates to your brain and heart health, hormones, digestion and different parts of the body.  Nutrigenomics is how your body responds to diet and how your genes respond to food.  We are all a little different and all this relates back to our ancestors….how they ate and where they lived accumulates to who you are now.     The Nutrition Genome removes the fear around genetic testing...showing how your genes are not necessarily your destiny, but rather your blueprint.  Once you understand the blueprint you know how to make modifications and changes to help reduce the risk of disease.  You can take steps to facilitate and help your own biochemistry to be its healthiest.  You get a software report with genes for each section which shows gene variance (what makes you different from other people).   All of this traces back to our migration roots.     HIGHLIGHTS FROM OUR INTERVIEW:   We focus on Brain Awareness and Mental Health month so we talk about Alzheimer's prevention.     When people have certain variances in the APOE gene (a gene that has to do with cholesterol as well as protects the brain neurons), they have reduced protection against Alzheimer’s.  This genotype increases the risk of Alzheimer's and has both pros and cons (Pros: higher bone density, less risk of infertility, better calcium and Vitamin D absorption, less miscarriages).    2/3 of all Alzheimer's patients are women.   Avoid inflammation by eating foods that are anti-inflammatory, such as foods that are high in choline and folate (egg yolks, chicken thighs vs. breast, liver, organ meats, nuts, broccoli, romaine lettuce, oranges, fenol, berries, freshly ground flax seeds, hops tea).   Sleep is super important — you should be getting 7 ½ to 8 ½ hours per night.   Important to fast 12-14 hours after your last meal (intermittent fasting) to give your body time to reset and filter.   Focus on exercise and movement.   Women can boost estrogen with foods and phytoestrogen (phytoestrogens foods: flax seeds, hops IPA beers and hops tea)   Exotic mushrooms help the body adapt to stress (Chaga, Lions Mane, Reiche, Shiitake, Nayataki)   Good brands for medicinal mushrooms: Mushroom Science and Fungi Perfecti    Good brands for medicinal mushrooms: Mushroom Science Fungi Perfecti   Book: The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who've Lived the Longest By, Dan Buettner   Genome Testing: (*need affiliate link here) www.Nutrtiongenome.com   Alex Swanson M.S. www.nutritiongenome.com www.thehealthbeat.com www.swansonhealthcenter.com   HELP US SPREAD THE WORD!   Would you  like to get a weekly reminder of our upcoming shows?

Today I am dissecting a pair of books called “The Blue Zones of Happiness: Lessons from the World’s Happiest people" By by Dan Buettner. It is a book where he goes to the statistically happiest places on earth and tries to discover the insights on why these places are so much more happier than other places in the world. He also has a book called. "The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer from the People Who've Lived the Longest. This book researches the people to actually live longest in the world. What are their habits? Why do they have less disease and more people that live to 100 years old? This episode has a lot of cool insights into living a longer and happier life. It is all from real data and researching these areas over many years. Let's do it. Big Time Dreams!

f you’ve ever hidden in a loo cubicle at work to collect your thoughts, this episode is for YOU. Maybe you feel constantly overwhelmed and fried. No wonder. Apparently, we switch between 37 different tasks every hour. Maybe your mobile phone is the first thing you kiss in the morning. It's your companion at meals. It's even in bed with you. Being constantly accessible isn't making any of us more productive, even as technology advances. In fact, productivity trailed off six years ago, in spite of all the snazzy new gizmos and applications. If you recognise the madness of hyper-connectivity and overwhelm in your own life (but can't quit and move to a meditation retreat in Bali), don't worry, there's still hope. My guest today is Colette Heneghan. Colette was a successful account manager for a global telecoms company that helped to introduce the Blackberry - and the joys of being accessible 24-7 - to our lives way back when. She'd grab a sandwich on the hoof; or be glued to her desk till her legs felt cold and dead; or not see blue sky for days at a time. Nowadays, Colette runs Optimum Living, a wellbeing consultancy that helps companies find ways to allow their employees to thrive in the workplace. We talk about making changes that can have a real cumulative impact on your wellbeing. We cover: Some clues that you might be approaching 'the brick wall' Common traits found in high-performers' working lives 2 purchases to kick-start your wellness (one's very retro!) What an optimised morning looks like How to gain back 2 hours of your day Using "Airplane" mode as a productivity tool   Colette is a fan of micro-changes, which includes getting outside (and out of the loo cubicle) for your 5-minute breather. Sounds much better to me... Join us!
