Many of us — even those who normally sleep well — may be having trouble falling and staying asleep given the fear and anxiety we’re facing as part of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In our increasingly digital world, the way we connect with others has changed — but the positive effects of a strong support system have not. In this episode, we talk with Justin Reis, co-creator of Life Time’s AMP cycle format, about the communities he’s built inside and outside of the fitness space, as well as how we can create more meaningful connections and surround ourselves with those who support us.   Find the show notes, get related resources and view the transcript for this episode at https://experiencelife.com/podcast/lttalks-season1-community   Have thoughts you’d like to share or topic ideas for future episodes?

Being “fit” looks a little bit different for everyone. In this episode, we discuss the importance of moving for your unique body and motivations, the importance of mechanics and consistency, the components of a well-rounded workout regimen, and why fitness is about so much more than aesthetics.

While many aspects of our health are interconnected, there are two in particular we come back to time and again: sleep and stress. They play a major role in how we feel and function, both mentally and physically, and if we don’t have good habits in place, every other aspect of our health can start to crumble. In this episode, integrative psychiatrist, Henry Emmons, MD, discusses why they’re essential and offers tangible ways we can improve our sleep and manage our stress.   Find the show notes, get related resources and view the transcript for this episode at https://experiencelife.com/podcast/lttalks-season1-health   Have thoughts you’d like to share or topic ideas for future episodes?

We intentionally chose mindset as the first topic for this podcast because — while it’s often overlooked — it’s where real, lasting change starts, whether you’re working on your health, fitness, relationships, or career. Our guest is Jen Elmquist, a licensed mental health professional and the creator of LT Mind. We discuss why mindset has such a profound impact on our health and well-being, as well as our motivations for change, the effects of meditation, and ways you can practice more mindfulness in your daily life.   Find the show notes, get related resources and view the transcript for this episode at https://experiencelife.com/podcast/lttalks-season1-mindset   Have thoughts you’d like to share or topic ideas for future episodes?
