Discover the concept of blue zones and how they are home to communities known for their longevity and health. Learn about the factors that contribute to a longer and healthier life, as well as surprising findings from Dan Buettner's extensive research on super-agers around the world.
What if the secret to living longer wasn't just kale and spin class, but transforming your whole environment and community?
After decoding longevity hotspots he introduced as the Blue Zones, Dan Buettner discovered their vitality ensues from ecosystems promoting natural movement, plant-based eating, purpose, community, and stress reduction. These universal experiences shape our ability to build deeply healthy lives, yet we rarely learn from those who've mastered the art - the world's most vigorous centenarians.
I'm thrilled to share this myth-busting conversation to glean simple, enjoyable lessons on adding life to our years from the wisdom of history's most remarkable super-agers. Join me and Dan, author of The Blue Zones Secrets for Living Longer, as we sidestep pitfalls by infusing our lives and communities with insights from the globe's greatest teachers on living well past 100.
