#306: Beyond Food and Exercise

As promised, here is part two of my thoughts and reflections after watching the Netflix docuseries: Live to 100: Lessons from the Blue Zones.

In last week's show, I talked about the lessons we have to learn from how people who live in these regions eat and move… and to break it down in the simplest of terms:

They eat mostly plants, foods they grow, very little that is processed.

They move a lot, they garden, they walk, they do manual labor (ie. no kitchen aid in these regions).

So there's that, but what I really wanted to talk about this week was what they do beyond food and exercise that seems to contribute to their longevity…

Their sense of community.

Their sense of purpose.

Listen to this week's episode as I share more.
