Learning To Love “Just Enough”

Learning To Love “Just Enough”

It’s human nature to pursue more: More stuff. More money. More professional power. While it’s certainly important to both create and reach goals in life, the mindless pursuit of more leaves many of us feeling depleted.

And when we’re always striving to attain the next big thing? We are effectively removing ourselves from the beauty of the present moment.

On today’s show I’m speaking with blogger Tyler Moore about whether it’s possible to be happy with less and, if so, how.

 

Here’s a preview:

[7:45] The relationship between tidying up your stuff and tidying up your priorities

[10:30] Quieting the voice in your head that yearns for more

[16:00] The unexpected benefits of living with just enough

[25:00] First steps for determining what’s just enough for you

Nature As Medicine

Are we treating the symptoms of modern life while simultaneously ignoring our habitat?

The average American now spends 93% of their life indoors. But humans evolved for millennia alongside the natural world, and research suggests that our indoor lifestyle is disrupting our sleep, focus and long-term health.

You don’t need a gym membership or expensive workout gear to get your health back on track. On today’s show, Dr. John La Puma argues that all you need is a 17-minute dose of nature, every single day.

Here’s a preview:

[4:00] Modern medicine tends to prioritize intervention over prevention. But why?

[7:30] We’re taught to fear the outdoors, but indoor living can be directly harmful in ways we’re only beginning to understand

[11:30] Why it’s time to view “screen time” as “ultra-processed time”

[16:00] Exactly how a daily dose of morning sunlight resets insulin sensitivity, hunger timing, and prefrontal cortex function

[30:00] Outside exercise is better for you than inside exercise, so take your movement outdoors!
