Call it swimming upstream or walking against traffic, but it’s what we need to do if we’re trying to live with vibrant health in our society! In this episode, we’ll acknowledge some of these situations – in food, in work, in popular culture and more – and will identify some entities who are trying to prey on our vulnerabilities as humans. While leaving things to chance might not lead to living with wellness, the process of taking our health back can be fun and uplifting and empowering!

Joshua Becker of Becoming Minimalist, the Uncluttered course, and new book, Things That Matter, shares a wise man’s observation that our imprisonment by our things is not so different from the chains of communism. In addition to our things, Joshua names other distractions we may not even have considered – things like fear, past mistakes, money, work and leisure – and then some we probably have, like all things digital. We talk about steps we can take to be aware of our values, goals and purpose, and how to stay on the path to a life of no (major) regrets.

I don’t think “Languishing” had a color on my mood ring in the 1970s, but it sure is a common mood these days. If you’ve been feeling blah, you’re not alone according to expert Adam Grant. And it’s not just a good idea to do something about it, but it’s an imperative. I talk with ACC-level Coach Kelly Reznikoff about how to get from “fine" to flourishing!

Breakfast might be the most controversial meal of the day! Truth is, we all break our fasts at some point -- how and when are two of the questions we tackle in this episode!
