Body by Science explains the principles and benefits of high-intensity, low-frequency weight training. The book is based on peer-reviewed scientific literature and provides detailed explanations of how this type of training improves cardiovascular health, resting metabolic rate, glucose metabolism, insulin sensitivity, body composition, and more. It introduces the 'Big Five' workout routine, which involves slow movements using the largest muscle groups, and discusses the importance of proper rest and recovery. The authors also address genetic factors in muscle development and provide guidance for athletes and seniors. The book is well-organized, well-researched, and includes numerous graphs and diagrams to support its claims[2][4][5].
In 'Boundless', Kathleen Winter recounts her 2010 journey across the Northwest Passage, accompanied by marine scientists, historians, archaeologists, and anthropologists. The book delves into the impacts of climate change, the emergence of new hybrid species, and the geopolitical tensions over sovereignty in the region. Winter also reflects on her personal odyssey, including her childhood migration from England to Canada and the complexities of cultural identity and traditional ways of life among the Inuit population.
The book discusses the benefits of prioritizing a single task and provides strategies for overcoming distractions, building productive habits, and maintaining focus. It challenges common productivity myths such as multitasking and the idea of a balanced life, and introduces the 'Focusing Question': 'What's the ONE Thing I can do such that by doing it everything else will be easier or unnecessary?' The authors also discuss time blocking, habit-building, and aligning short-term actions with long-term goals to achieve success in various aspects of life[1][3][5].

I feel fortunate to be invited to many, many events in the health and wellness industry...
...but honestly, lately, I haven't felt all that motivated to go to most of them.
There is one event, though, that is well, well worth the travel. It's called RUNGA and it's the most uplifting, rejuvenating, and empowering event I've ever attended. RUNGA is held twice a year for three days in Austin, TX, and I'm a regular.
Only fifty guests are invited to the beautiful, secluded property, which gives RUNGA an intimacy that I've never felt at other events. The people who go have a wide range of backgrounds, but what they share is their dedication to optimal health.
Each day, we woke up to a delicious, nourishing organic breakfast, then spent the days engaged in activities like yoga and meditation, oxygen treatments, IVs, biohacking, cooking workshops, and more.
The first was a panel called "State of Mind," during which we talked about spirituality, psychedelics, smart drug stacks, and general mindstate shifting using plant medicines, technologies, breath, and other cutting-edge, scientific and free, and natural methods to alter one's state of mind. My co-panelists were Tero Isokauppila from Four Sigmatic, Joseph Anew from the Intuitive Warrior podcast (and the creator of RUNGA), and my friend Dr. John Lieurance of MitoZen.
I recorded both the panel and the Q&A, so there's a huge range of topics covered in this one episode - If you're interested in joining me for the next RUNGA event in April 2023 in Austin, Texas, you can apply here. I'd love to meet you in person.
