10% Happier with Dan Harris

First of all Mark Harris wrote a great book about Mike Nichols which I really recommend everyone listening and the one I'm reading now is really amazing and I don't want it to end and it's called Pictures at a Revolution. Five movies and The Birth of the New Hollywood.

She wrote a book called Where Did You Go Burn a Dead which got made into a movie.

Episode number one is with Diane Miseido, friend and former colleague of mine from ABC News who wrote a great book about her experiences in the land of sleeplessness and how to get out of there.

He's also written many books on the subject including: Dream Yoga Illuminating your life through lucid dreaming and the Tibetan yogas of sleep.

the second book in this trilogy is literally Dream Yoga illuminating your life through lucid dreaming and the Tibetan yogas of sleep

entry-level book is a workbook called The Lucid Dreaming Workbook by harbinger price that's a really great intro all the benefits are in there all the induction techniques are in there it's a great intro

then my deepest dive which came out a couple years ago the third book in the trilogy is called Dreams of Light the profound daytime practice of lucid dreaming where i introduce this excuse me this breath taking brilliant topic of the daytime practice of a lucid reform which we haven't even touched on

I think it's like the fourth book I think in the series that began with Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents which was the best seller that really made the big splash and it's a natural evolution of that book.

Rachel Hartley is a certified Intuitive Eating counselor and the author of a book called Gentle Nutrition, a non-diet approach to healthy eating.

So I wrote my book on the last principle of intuitive eating which is honoring your health with Gentle Nutrition.

And she's the author of a book called This Is Your Brain on Food: An Indispensable Guide to the Surprising Foods that Fight Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, OCD, ADHD, and More.

We are in control of how we feel emotionally through the food choices we make every single day.

I feel that that statement that I wrote a few years ago has sort of become what I say now, which is you have the power at the end of your fork.

In This Is Your Brain on Food each chapter describes the condition but describes the foods to try to include and those to try to avoid if you have symptoms of that particular condition...

I hope people will check out my book which is called This Is Your Brain on Food.

My guests are Kelly and Juliet Starrette authors of the new book Built to Move their book covers 10 tests that you can do to assess your so called vital signs and then 10 practices you can do to improve those vital signs and make your body work better.

We saw that ultimately didn't matter where you were everyone was struggling with the same sets of variables. How do I feel better?

What we've tried to do here though, because of course everybody knows you can go out and buy a thousand books on nutrition or exercise or nowadays even breathing in some of these other topics. But what we've tried to do is explain to the reader how all of these behaviors are interconnected and influence each other and aren't just things that sort of happen in their own silo, that all of these behaviors influence the other.

And the number one reason you might end up in a nursing home is your inability to get up and down off the ground independently.

It turns out that the things we recommend in this book for everyday people weekend warriors, people who just want to feel good in their bodies are actually the same things we recommend to people who are trying to win world championships and go to the Olympics and compete at the highest level.

Together Kelly and Juliet have also written the book desk bound and co-founded the San Francisco CrossFit.

Kelly also corrode a big best seller called becoming a supple leopard.

And the first is a woman named Kate Chanahan who wrote a book I love called Deep Nutrition.

I sort of wrote a book called The Pagan Diet which was an attempt to point kind of a comical finger at the incredible diet wars that are going on pale.

And Michael Moss has written a lot about this from the New York Times sugar salt and fat about you know the incredible deliberate and I would say in some ways criminal application of science to creating highly addictive foods that are driving our behavior.

He's the host of a popular health and fitness podcast called The Drive and the author of a new book called Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity.

By the way one huge regret I have Dan in the book is that there aren't more Easter eggs in it and if there was a way I could have had John Cox those tosen somehow referenced in the book. That would have been that would have been so valuable to at least people like you and I.

The book I've been checking out lately is called devil makes three it's by Ben fountain it's extraordinarily well written and it takes you into Haiti in the 1990s and obviously the narrative has a lot of extra punch right now given what's happening on the ground in Haiti as we speak highly recommend this book

Yeah the new book is called Outlive the Science and Art of Longevity. irony not lost on me.

Mark Heimann who has this new book out called Forever Young which like the title alone seems to fly in the face of like the most foundational Buddhist teachings there are, right.

His book has four pages of just his own wellness routine and includes like over a dozen supplements.

We have Kelly and Juliette Starrette who have this new book out called Built to Move, which is all about how you should think about moving your body in the 23 plus hours a day when you're not working out.

And then we end with Rachel Hartley who wrote a book called Gentle Nutrition and she's our intuitive eating person but she talks about how to make sense of nutritional guidelines within an intuitive eating framework.

It's all evidence-based but it's focused on using that nutrition knowledge to support your well-being rather than manipulate or control your body size.

The first guest is Dr. Peter Atia who's got a new book about longevity called Outlive that's coming up on Monday.
