Live Beyond the Norms The Generosity Switch for Brain, Stress & Blood Pressure | Mark Young
We often separate kindness from science, but they are deeply connected at a cellular level. Mark Young reveals how the act of giving actually triggers physiological changes that clear cognition, reduce stress, and might be the key to your next breakthrough.
In this episode, Mark explains the powerful childhood story that led to his book, Radical Generosity, and why solving someone else's problem is the ultimate hack for your own nervous system.
We also get into the weeds of his company, Zona Health. He details the fascinating science of how a simple isometric hand grip exercise signals the body to release nitric oxide and potassium, which rehydrates the endothelial lining and improves cardiovascular flexibility.
“You will be healthier if you figure out what you can eliminate rather than what you can add.” - Mark Young
