10% Happier with Dan Harris

NOTE

In blue zones, over 85% of people, particularly males who live to 90 or 100, drink alcohol daily, often homemade wine, despite research indicating alcohol's risks. These individuals employ unconscious methods to prevent overeating, such as minimizing kitchen electronics and eating with family.
