5 Thought Friday

5 Thoughts for the week:

1.       What I am currently reading, viewing, or listening to:

• Superlife; Darin Olien

• The book is from 2015 but it had a 4.7 rating with over 9,500 reviews, so it must be good. See the quote in #5 below if you want to know what the book is all about!

• Recommended by a member of the “Sleep Minder” community; Thanks Gui

2.       Gratitude Practice (for improved happiness):

• Grateful to my personal life coach, Rafy, for unlocking many of my inner beliefs and leading me on a journey to greater happiness and exponential growth. To the power of life coaching!!!!

3.       Wellness ideas to consider:

• Annual physical; I highly recommend everyone get an annual physical. I am all about making good decisions with data as you can see from my April 3 article; Healthier with Data

• I was not happy with my initial body fat% reading, so I decided to get my first Dexa scan to learn more about my body composition. I will share the results when I receive the full report later this month.

4. What I’m eating, drinking, buying, or whatever else is on my mind:

• Tim Ferriss Q&A podcast on “Exercise And Morning Routines, Holotropic Breathwork, and More”. I watched at 1.5x and here are a few go to sections if you have limited time

  • Question at 14:30? what do I do when I feel life is meaningless?

  • 36:45? What does success mean? and do you have to beat yourself up to be “successful”?

  • 49:00? how to look at your inner belief systems?

5. Quote(s) I am Pondering:

• “Five life forces—the only things that control our health. The only things we need to think about. It’s like they say about money—if we take care of the pennies, the dollars take care of themselves. The life forces are:

  • NUTRITION

  • HYDRATION

  • OXYGENATION

  • ALKALIZATION

  • DETOXIFICATION……That’s all of it.” Darin Olien, SuperLife

• I must read more of the book to understand the last two items…hmmmmm…can’t wait for some new learning!

Happy Friday!
