1-Food Companies Tricks: Companies add special chemicals to snacks that make us want to eat more, even when we're not hungry.
2-Brain Tricks: Our brains sometimes make us crave unhealthy foods because they think we need them to survive, like a caveman looking for bananas.

In today's episode, I'm having a conversation with Peter Conti, author of the bestselling book, Only When I Step on It. Peter shared his incredible journey hiking over 2,000 miles of the Appalachian Trail, despite suffering from severe, chronic pain due to a shattered hip and crushed nerve received from a motorcycle accident.
Inspired by the movie "Wild," Peter turned his pain into power, divided the trail into manageable sections, and adapted every step of the way. His memoir is a beacon of hope for anyone dealing with chronic pain, emphasizing that small steps and persistence can lead to monumental achievements.
Here are the top three Better Health Maxims to live by in this episode:
Embrace and Adapt to Your Limitations: Inspired by Peter Conti's journey on the Appalachian Trail, it's crucial to acknowledge your physical and emotional boundaries. Focus on what you can do rather than what you can't. Break down large, overwhelming goals into smaller, manageable steps, and don't be afraid to modify your approach as needed. Conti's method of section hiking rather than pushing for long, strenuous days exemplifies this maxim in practice.
Persist Through Challenges with Flexibility and Ingenuity: Flexibility and problem-solving are key elements of overcoming adversity. For Peter Conti, the shift from traditional long treks to a structured, personal system of hiking highlights how ingenuity can turn seemingly impossible tasks into achievable feats. Whether you’re managing chronic pain, like Conti did, or facing any formidable life challenge, persistence paired with creative solutions can lead to success.
Find Simple Joys in Focused Activities: Conti found healing through the simplicity of hiking, an activity requiring focus and offering a break from modern life's complexities. This maxim encourages you to seek out activities that provide mental clarity and physical engagement. The act of walking in nature, rhythmic and purposeful, can be both therapeutic and fulfilling. Whether it's paced walking for older adults or any other mindful activity, finding joy in simplicity greatly enhances your overall well-being.
Tune in for an inspiring story of resilience and self-healing.
