Seven Practices That Saved My Life - Episode 48
Manage episode 388205838 series 2290010
In this episode I share with you seven of the most valuable self care practices I use to keep my life straight.
1) Hanging: Several times a day I grip a bar and swing freely for 60+ seconds. The deep stretch and lengthening of my spine leaves me feeling taller and pain free. This practice alone has saved me significant time and money on body workers.
2) Raw vegetable juicing: This was the first act of self care I took almost 30 years ago when I bought a Juice Man Juicer after watching a late night infomercial. Although the models have changed the practice remains. On average I drink about 32+ ounces a day. Concentrated nutrition, high alkalinity and superior elimination. It’s truly the original superfood.
3) Intermittent Fasting: I started this practice around 2000-2002. However, in the last 12 months I made a significant and critical change. Instead of skipping breakfast, I now skip dinner. My last meal ends at about 4:30 PM. I aim for a 17 hour fast, but depending on my schedule it can reach about 20 hours. Finishing the last meal early sets up the overnight rest for maximum detoxification and rejuvenation.
4) Prioritizing Sleep: After years of staying up late to edit podcasts, respond to messages, pay bills.. I finally realized that anything I think I gained in efficiency I end up losing in effectiveness the next day. It’s always more productive (and healthy - cleansing doesn’t happen in an exhausted body) to be properly rested.
5) No longer overthinking exercise: So many times my busy day would go off the rails and I would think oh well I don’t have 45 minutes to an hour today. Try again tomorrow… In reality we always have 5 minutes and we actually have at least 15. It’s amazing what can be accomplished in minutes. If you are out of shape or out of practice and simply need to build momentum check out Mike Chang’s Flow Training
6) Cold Immersion: I no longer own a Cryo sauna, but luckily I live in a place where the fall, winter and spring ground water is perfect for cold showers. 3 minutes over the head, face, neck and torso is all it takes to drop inflammation and increase focus and attention.
7) Essential Supplements: Although I do intentionally skip days, my consistent supplements are Vitamin D3, Valasta Astaxanthin and a plant based multi. I take other things, but these are the critical ones.
