There's a wonderful quote from James Openheim that says, "The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet." This statement speaks to the reality that many of us live in in which we constantly seek happiness "someday" once our prerequisites for happiness are met. Once I get the right job I'll be happy. Once I get the right partner I'll be happy. Once I graduate I'll be happy. Once I make more money I'll be happy. Once I start a family I'll be happy. Once my kids are grown and successful I'll be happy. Once I retire I'll be happy. These are just some of the things that we'll tell ourselves (often unconsciously) that set the thermostat for exactly how happy we'll be in our day-to-day lives. The harsh reality is this: None of these things will intrinsically bring you happiness, and ALL of these things come along with issues, challenges, and conditions of their own that will likely cause you to push happiness off, yet again, to the future. If your emotional state is always based on your circumstances, life has an interesting way of pushing things off and continuing to dangle the happiness carrot in front of your face, even when you get what you think you really wanted. Bottomline, happiness is a choice, a practice, and moldable system within itself. It's a feeling you always have access to. And there are certain things you can do in your life, starting now, to boost the level of your happiness thermostat. Today you're going to hear from Gretchen Rubin, author of the New York Times bestselling book The Happiness Project. She's made happiness a study, and it's paying off big time for people young, old, and everywhere in between. You can be happier now, and she's going to share the proven tips to help you do it. But why does boosting our level of happiness matter anyway? Well, according to the research, happier people tend to be more successful, they tend to have better relationships, they tend to have better health and fitness, and they tend to be of greater service in their communities and the world at large. To make it simple, it's just a little bit easier to take action in our lives when we have a happy disposition. It's not true in 100 percent of the situations in our lives, but feeling good definitely gives us an edge. Abraham Lincoln said, "Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be." It's time for you to take the power of your own happiness in your hands and truly enjoy the health and happiness you deserve. In this episode you'll discover: Why health and happiness are intimately connected. How we can get a surprising boost of joy from clearing out clutter. How utilizing the sense of smell can instantly boost happiness. Why sleep deprivation can be a big trigger for negative emotions. How your body can get a "second wind" of energy even when you're tired. Whether or not your level of happiness is genetic. Why negative emotions are extremely important for happiness (if you use them correctly!) How happiness relates to contribution. How novelty and new challenges can impact your happiness. What you can do to push through barriers you're faced with on your road to happiness. How structuring your day a certain way can bring you more happiness. Why playtime is vital to your health. Whether or not money can actually buy happiness (this may surprise you!) Items mentioned in this episode include: Onnit.com/Model <== Get your optimal health & performance supplements at 10% off!

The formula for fitness is pretty simple: Eat good food + Get plenty of movement + Sleep like you're getting paid for it = The body and health you desire Of course, there can be some more variables thrown in the mix, like hormones and environmental toxicity, but for the most part it's as simple as this. Being that it's so simple, why is it that so many people are struggling to have the body and health that they want? It's not complicated to have what we want at first glance... but what makes it complicated is something far more mighty than the power of food or exercise. What trumps everything is the power of your mind. It's the inner game that determines your outer game. It's your mental and emotional fitness that truly determines your outer health and fitness. This is where the real shifts need to happen. And that's what today's show is all about. If we're going to live a great life, then we can't just stop at the acquisition of a great body. What about phenomenal relationships? What about a satisfying career? What about abundant finances and resources to do the things you want in your life? All of this matters. And all of this is a result of developing the real mental and emotional fitness to make it happen. You can have, do and be practically anything you want. It starts right now by using these strategies to live the life you truly deserve! In this episode you'll discover: Why the formula for having great health is simple, yet most people can't do it. Why the negative voice in your head can actually teach you a lot. How simply moving forward can create huge momentum for you. Why doing things beyond the edge of your capability is so transformative. How looking back on your life can be extremely beneficial OR extremely depressing. How to instantly shift the perception about your past and make it more valuable. How to get decades of experience in just a matter of days. What some of the most successful people in the world do that others are afraid of. What surprising thing our brains do automatically when we're talking with other people (this is incredible!) How cells found in the human heart can tell us a lot about our emotional wellness.

There are four words in the human language that are destroying people's lives everyday. To realize what these four words are, we have to first realize that we are not a victim of our circumstances, but rather a victim of our own beliefs that are playing havoc in our minds. One of the biggest issues with achieving what we want is a misdirected self-confidence. There is a big difference between a healthy self-assuredness and being closed-minded to something that could change your life. Those four extremely dangerous words in the human language are: "I already know that." The insight about these four dangerous words was one of the most powerful things that bestselling author and renown Success Coach Hal Elrod said to me during our conversation. He's speaking of a universal truth that all of us can ignore from time-to-time. When we feel like we've already mastered something, or that we've "got it handled", or that it's old news and not what we need, we immediately shut ourselves off from the possibility of new growth and success. The reality is, we may think we already know something, but if we're not applying it in our lives then it's really just a theory. It's not something we truly know. Knowledge is not power. The application of knowledge is power. So today you're going to learn how to apply the things you want on a consistent basis to lead you to the life you truly deserve. Hal is an amazing teacher with an amazing story, and knows firsthand the value of having a daily strategy for success and consistent execution. This can be a real game-changer to say the least. So, grab a notebook, listen in, and find out how creating miracle days begins with creating Miracles Mornings. In this episode you'll discover: How challenges and setbacks can lead to better results in your life. Why getting your shoes from Payless can eventually make you rich. How Hal survived a devastating car accident where he was pronounced dead for 6 minutes. How Hal's attitude in the hospital enabled him to walk again when the doctors said it was not going to happen. What the "5-Minute Rule" is and why it's so effective for getting through challenges. How acceptance of what is can unlock the door to success and happiness. Why you must line up your LC (Life Conditions) and BP (BluePrint) for true life fulfillment. What exercise has to do with success in business and other areas of life. What The Miracle Morning is and how to create your own each day. What the 6 Life SAVERS are. Why some of the most surprising financial success icons attribute their results to meditation. The #1 mistake people make with visualization. A clinically proven way to increase your focus. What blocks most people from real success in their lives.

It's called a medical paradox.... According to Harvard Medical School, despite an ever growing arsenal of powerful drugs and a deeper understanding of asthma symptoms, more people are dying from the disease than ever. It's depressing effects hit hardest in the millions of children that are living with asthma. There are over 7 million children with asthma in the U.S. alone, and that number is growing steadily each day. Einstein said, "We can not solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them." So, to find a real solution for asthma, we have to step outside the conventional paradigm that is (admittedly) failing anyway. There are numerous natural treatments for asthma that are proven to be effective, but you may never hear about them if you don't know the right place to look. We are moving past the isolation-based thinking of finding more treatments for asthma symptoms and, instead, working intelligently to remove the underlying cause of the disease itself. That's what today's powerhouse episode is all about. We're talking eliminating inflammation, reseting your immune system, plus a whole lot more. This one can save lives and eliminate a whole lot of emergency room visits, so please remember to share! In this episode you'll discover: Shocking statistics about the rapid growth of asthma. Why conventional medicine is baffled by the growth of asthma-related deaths. What an asthma attack looks and feels like. What primary triggers cause the nervous system to generate asthma symptoms. How I overcame my struggles with asthma and seasonal hay fever. What the main cause of asthma really is. How immune system function is directly related to asthma symptoms. The 5 steps to reverse and treat asthma naturally. How food allergies and food sensitivities are linked to asthma. What The Big 4 Culprits behind food allergies are. How autoimmune conditions are related to gut health. What foods to pull out to reduce inflammation and eliminate asthma symptoms. What roll mucus plays in our health and how it can go wrong. Shocking research showing that a certain type of milk can help reduce asthma issues. What environmental factors can trigger asthma symptoms. What foods and supplements help to prevent asthma symptoms. The #1 ranked botanical for treating asthma. Why omega 3 fatty acids have such a powerful impact on asthma. What frontline things you can do when asthma symptoms start to manifest.

Wisdom comes when knowledge meets real world application. To have the results you want in your life, in any area, we have to step out of our boundaries and put what we “know” into action. You don’t want to be the person who always says, “I know that already” or “I know what to do” but you aren’t actually doing it.

There is a quote from Robert Fritz that says, "If you limit your choices only to what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is compromise." Most of us are living a life of compromise. We may desire deeply to get out of it, but often times we just don't know how. Focusing on what seems "possible" for you is the most guaranteed way to live a life of mediocrity. But, if you're honest with yourself, and look deep inside your soul, you'll remember that you were destined for something much greater. I promise you, you're never too old, or too young, to start. You are never lacking the resources to make your dreams come true. Yet, you may be lacking something else. And that's what today's show is about. On this episode we have on gold-medal winning Olympian Jackie Joyner-Kersee. Not only was Jackie voted by Sports Illustrated (and many other publications) to be the greatest female athlete of the 20th century, but she helped shift the minds of an entire generation by the way she did it. Jackie is, in many ways, the epitome of breaking through what seems to be possible or reasonable. Her story, as you'll learn, is ripe with difficulties, poor conditions, and often insurmountable odds. To learn the insights from someone like Jackie is truly priceless, and a gift for us all. You're about to learn how she was able to breakthrough and tap into her potential, and (more importantly) how you'll be able to do the same thing. In this episode you'll discover: How one of the greatest athletes in history responded to finishing dead last in her early competitions. Why having a good mentor doesn't mean having someone who will agree with you. Who inspired Jackie to excel and what drove her to attend UCLA. Why having a healthy confidence is important (but not going overboard). Why positive self-talk is critical to high levels of success. How you can learn valuable lessons from the failures in your life. Why you should always shoot for a goal BEYOND what you want. How to maintain your health and fitness as you progress in age. Why looking at exercise as a form of punishment (like many people do) is a huge barrier to success. A major reason people are not exercising regularly (we are calling people out!) Some of the surprising benefits of walking. Why resourcefulness is far more valuable than having certain resources. How storytelling can help to motivate and transform the lives of so many people.

There is a wonderful quote that says, "People will judge you by your actions, not your intentions. You may have a heart of gold — but so does a hard-boiled egg." It's the things that we do, not our wishful thinking, that makes the biggest difference in the lives of those around us and the world at large. This motivated me to take you into my world and show you what I do, step-by-step, on a daily basis. In this powerful episode, I'll take you through my morning routine, my work week, and even a tour of how my exercise and nutrition are mapped out during the day. One of the biggest things you'll discover is that, for my work week, I do something called "chunking" to super-charge my focus, keep my energy high, and get more done in a day than most people get done in a week. To give you a quick example, there was a time when I would be working from 8am to 8 pm going from writing an important article, to seeing a few clients, to giving a presentation somewhere, to writing some more later in the day. All the while trying to maintain my nutrition and exercise habits. It was a stressful time to say the least. I constantly had to shift gears in my mind to be in an optimal place for many different things. I could do it. But I definitely could have done things better. Today, because I've made the decision to cut away a lot of the clutter and "chuck" my time into specific things on specific days, I'm able to "get in the zone" on a consistent, daily basis and accomplish much more than I ever have before. Time for work, creating, teaching, exercise, family time, and even my favorite activities are all done with ease and grace. You're about to learn how I do it, plus the powerful daily rituals I use to set the template for it all. In this episode you'll discover: How creating certain habits can make it difficult to get out of shape. Why habits generally have a negative connotation. What time I start my day (and how it relates to my kids and being of service to the world). Why it's important to take an "inner bath" each morning. When to take your probiotics (the best time of day and why). How to ensure that you're regularly eliminating wastes from your body. Why meditation is so valuable. What my meditation practice consists of. Why so many people struggle to breathe properly and simple breathing exercises you can use. How your facial expression can change your mood. The real value that visualization has on your life. Why exercising in the morning can help you sleep better at night. What the benefits of contrast showers are (this is super valuable!) What the best breakfast for fat loss and energy is. Why "sleeping in" can cause problems with your energy and motivation. How to optimize things with your pre- and post-workout nutrition.

All diets are not created equal. Every day, billions of people all over the world are partaking in one form of diet or another. Many out of conscious effort. Many out of necessity. No matter what your particular diet beliefs are, there are some specific tenets that are now well known to contribute to the health and function of the human body. If food and diet were as simple as getting certain vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes, and other nutrients, then someone would have come up with an effective pill for that a long time ago. But that's not the real story of diet and food. Food is something far beyond the nutrients (or lack thereof) that you are getting from it. Real food, itself, is a source of infinite intelligence that knows how to interact with the human body in a way that no pill never can. Even deeper, food is about family, food is about emotion, food is about relationships, foods is about social acceptance. If you want to know the real value of diet and food, then Abel James is the man to talk to. On today's episode we are going to dive into the misconceptions surrounding diets, and hone in on what is truly important. We are going to uncover what The Wild Diet really is, and why it's important to have at least a portion of your own daily diet be on the wild side. In this episode you'll discover: What immunomodulators are (and why you need them). How healthy, thin people are able to feast and not get fat (keyword is healthy!) A quick, easy win almost anyone can achieve at breakfast time. How fasting impacts your metabolism (this might shock you!) Why health and nutrition is actually a lot easier than people think. What sneaky marketing tactics food companies use to promote foods as "healthy" (I guarantee you've been a victim of this.) How to create your dinner plate using The Wild Diet principles. Why plant foods are so very important in your diet. Simple tips to ensure you're eating healthier food more often. How food impacts us on a deeper level (emotionally, mentally, spiritually - with science to back it up!)

How can something so soft, so comforting, and so unsuspecting be the cause of many of the health problems running rampant in our society today? And if our ancestors ate bread, and built civilizations on it without consequence, then how can it be bad for us now? All of these questions and more are about to be answered in this interview with the author of the #1 New York Times Bestselling book Wheat Belly, Dr. William Davis. Wheat, though a staple in our modern life, has grown in use and variation without assumption. Wheat has gone "Hollywood" and expanded out from the bread game into thousands of cereals, every baked good imaginable (I was a fan of Wheat's appearance in the Hostess Ding Dong myself), and countless other items have featured wheat in a supporting roll (like medications, beauty products, and even supplements, just to name a few). Truly, wheat is everywhere. So, when did wheat begin showing signs that its ego got too big and it was now causing massive harm? Well, the research dates as far back as 10,000 years when the birthing of agriculture took hold. Humans began staying in one place, monocropping (mainly wheat), and genetic manipulation of wheat first peeks out its lightly toasted face. With this shift to monocropping and agriculture came startling evidence in human remains. More degenerative bone diseases, a smaller physical stature, as well as evidence of other chronic illnesses like cancer were on the rise. Now, things were still not nearly as volatile as today because whole foods were still the basis of the diet. Unlike the heavily processed frankenfoods of today. You wouldn't have seen a Cinnabon, a box of Frosted Mini-Wheats, or a double-stuffed crust deep dish pizza anywhere in sight. Wheat has gone from a bit of a problem, to a flat out flagrant food pyramid bully. You're going to be shocked when you find out just how wheat is contributing to weight gain, hormone problems, and even autoimmune diseases. Today you're going to learn important information that will likely change your life forever. Time to find out how to rise above the Wheat Belly, supercharge your energy, and live a longer, healthier life. In this episode you'll discover: What the #1 antioxidant food is (by a long shot!) How healthcare has turned diseases into profit and procedure opportunities. What originally compelled Dr. William Davis to pull wheat out of his patient's diets. How a non-celiac patient completed cured her ulcerative colitis by following Dr. Davis' advice. What type of relationship you should have with your doctor (this is critical!) How high blood sugar can lead to a myriad of diseases. How a protein found in wheat called gliadin can lead to autoimmune diseases. What compounds found in wheat amplify your appetite and cause you to overeat. How wheat germ agglutinin can block the function of your satiety hormone leptin. Where the term obesogens come from (the perfect foods to make you fat). Why wheat can make you store fat faster than pure table sugar (this is shocking!) Why learned helplessness can prevent you from losing weight no matter what you do. How modern day wheat has been mutated (this is NOT what your ancestors ate!) How wheat helps create extremely inflammatory visceral fat. Why wheat and related grains can lead to estrogen-related health problems (from fibroid tumors to man-boobs). Why kicking the wheat habit can lead to drug-like withdrawal symptoms. How you can quickly reverse health issues by following a few simple Wheat Belly tips. How gluten-free foods can make you just as fat and unhealthy as their gluten containing big brothers. Why 90 percent of the population is experiencing gut damage from wheat and don't even know it.
