It was once the view that brain remained largely unchanged once we reached adulthood. There is even the oft-repeated myth that our brain is incapable of making new brain cells. Both are false - we now know that the brain can change itself structurally in response to stimuli throughout our life.

How does this relate to self-help?

By having the power to change our brain, we have the power to change our life.

⚠️ CAN YOU TRAIN WHEN FASTING? ⚠️

There are hundreds of different versions of Intermittent Fasting (IF) out there in the health and fitness industry. Like all things in this space, it is unnecessarily complicated.

In this episode, I explain my method to introduce IF to your diet and I contend it is the simplest way out there.

Things don't have to be difficult in the dieting world, and I will show you exactly how.

I am almost certain that you've never been told to meditate as a part of a diet program. That's the reason why every other diet you've ever undertaken has been that difficult. The simple fact is that if you have a meditation habit, dieting will be easier for the rest of your life.

Why can I say that? Meditation directly improves a group of functions in your brain called the Executive Functions - which don't just sound important, they are critically important for things so fundamental to our existence we struggle to appreciate them.

They are also intimately linked with dieting as I explain in this podcast.

Let me start off by saying: 2020 was the best year in recorded human history. I wholeheartedly believe that statement and I came with sources.

2020 was an incredibly difficult year for so many people, for so many reasons. There was abject misery across the globe, make no mistake.

Despite the fact everything seems bad, through changing your perspective and focussing on what good actually came out of so-called “bad” year you can hopefully realise that it’s not so bad as it seems. 

This is an audio version of my article with the same title, which includes sources for every statement I make in this podcast. (Read it HERE for free: tiny.cc/2020bestyearQED )
