True well-being isn’t hard to find. You just have to know where to look. In her book, Annie Daly tours Jamaica, Norway, Hawai'i, Japan, India, and Brazil, sharing a diverse array of philosophies, lifestyles, and practices for better living.

Fed up with the commercialization of the wellness industry after working in it for years, Annie embarked on an inspiring adventure through some of the world's happiest and healthiest cities and villages to find out what we can learn from them. Whether she's hiking along gorgeous fjords in Norway to see why Norwegians are so dedicated to getting outside, soothing her spirit with Hawaiian saltwater cleanses, or learning about the importance Brazilians place on community, Annie combines on-the-ground reporting with heartful personal narrative to share the global lessons, philosophies, and customs that prove that wellness is not about the products—it's about the way you live your life.

Annie joins us today to talk about her book and her travels, how wellness has become a commodity to many Americans,  the power of saunas, and how to truly YOLO.

How Your Diet Affects Your Risk for Cancer

Studies have estimated that 1 of every 162 children (0.6%) have Tourette's Syndrome (TS). A CDC study using parent reports found that 1 of every 360 (0.3%) children 6 – 17 years of age in the US have received a diagnosis of TS; this is about 138,000 children.

The Tourette Association of America (TAA) is working hard to increase social acceptance and tolerance for people with Tourette Syndrome. People with Tourette Syndrome have long been misunderstood and mocked for their uncontrollable symptoms which can lead to long-term effects on their mental health. It is estimated that 1 million Americans are living with Tourette Syndrome or a Tic Disorder – and an alarming 50% are going undiagnosed. The complexities of this disorder leave the community misunderstood, overlooked, and mocked for their uncontrollable symptoms.

Amanda Talty is the CEO/President of The Tourette Association of America and joins us today to tell us more about her role with the organization, working to reduce stigmas around Tourette's, ticks and picking up on possible signs of the syndrome in children.

Your Time to Thrive is a book to help improve your life by taking 'microsteps' instead of making huge or dramatic changes all at once, encouraging small and manageable actions instead of committing to run 3 miles every day (or some other dramatic and scary challenge).

Helping people build healthy new habits that improve their lives is more important than ever. Arianna Huffington launched Thrive Global to do just that–Thrive’s specific mission is to end the epidemic of stress and burnout and help individuals and companies unlock their greatest potential. Science continues to show that we don’t have to sacrifice our well-being in order to succeed; in fact, it turns out that well-being is critical to peak performance. Learning to thrive means:

· Moving from awareness to action – from knowing what to do to actually doing it

· Embracing solutions that appeal to wisdom, wonder, intuition, reflection, and are steeped in science

· Taking the time to rest and recover in order to fuel and maximize productivity, both personal and professional

· Making the mindset shifts and habit changes that supercharge performance in ways that truly matter to us

Marina Khidekel is the author of this book, she is Thrive Global's Head of Content Development, bringing Thrive's corporate and consumer audiences compelling multimedia storytelling and actionable, science-backed advice to help lower stress and improve well-being. She has also been a top editor for national media outlets including Women's Health, Glamour, and Cosmopolitan.
