Would you like to be more relaxed and live life more fully, while at the same time increasing your productivity level? If so, then David Allen is your man!

In this episode, I talk with productivity consultant David Allen about his wonderful book Getting Things Done, and the time-management system that goes under the same name.  Getting Things Done, called GTD for short, of course can help you to be more productive, but that is just one of many benefits it provides.  Having a tool to manage all of the thoughts, projects and responsibilities that pop into your head gives you the space required to think clearly, be present, and be purposeful.  It enables your creativity, while simultaneously reducing stress.  And when it's time to relax you can really relax!  GTD is more than just a time-management system.  It's a way of life!

Want to reduce your chance for cancer, heart disease and poor health? Want to age gracefully, not losing mobility, not needing a walker or wheelchair? The Sitting Solution is just the thing! In this replay of the conversation I had with Chad Walding last year, we talk about how sitting is the new smoking, linked with all sorts of bad health outcomes. Chad explains how through the restorative exercises found in the Sitting Solution, you can regain lost mobility and poor posture, righting the ship so that you age gracefully and increase your odds of avoiding disease. In addition, improving your posture can improve your mood, your confidence, and your self esteem, which has ripple effects, supporting improvements in all areas of your life!

If you missed it the first time, now is your chance to catch this important discussion. If you listened to it last year, now is your chance to give it a second listen. The Sitting Solution is one of the most influential books I've read in my life, and this powerful episode is definitely worth a second listen! Check it out!
