Labors Of Love

Last year was the hottest on record, so it’s safe to say that Earth Day as we traditionally celebrate isn’t working.

On today’s show I suggest what I believe is the antidote to the climate crisis (and I’m willing to bet you won’t be able to guess what it is!).

 

Here’s a preview:

[3:45] The Big 5: We know what we should do environment-wise, so why aren’t we doing it?

[7:15] Communal care is anti-capitalist, and that’s really darn important

[16:30] Here’s what research finds re: the relationship between collectivist culture and pro-environmental behaviors

[24:00] If the problem is disconnection, is the solution as simple as authentic reconnection?

[34:00] Transitioning from negative feedback loop we find ourselves currently in to a positive one

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!
