If anything, we\u2019re masters of the fast-paced lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This speed, unfortunately, comes at a high price. As Jason points out, our day-to-day isn\u2019t conducive to our body\u2019s natural rhythms.<\/p>\n\n\n<span class='bctt-click-to-tweet'><span class='bctt-ctt-text'><a href='https:\/\/x.com\/intent\/tweet?text=When%20we%E2%80%99re%20out%20of%20alignment%20with%20ourselves%2C%20nature%2C%20and%20%5Bthe%5D%20people%20around%20us%2C%20this%20is%20where%20suffering%20ensues.%20%E2%80%94%20%40JasonPrall&#038;related=mindvalley&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mindvalley.com%2Fblog%2Fjason-prall%2F&#038;via=mindvalley' target='_blank'rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">When we\u2019re out of alignment with ourselves, nature, and [the] people around us, this is where suffering ensues. \u2014 @JasonPrall <\/a><\/span><a href='https:\/\/x.com\/intent\/tweet?text=When%20we%E2%80%99re%20out%20of%20alignment%20with%20ourselves%2C%20nature%2C%20and%20%5Bthe%5D%20people%20around%20us%2C%20this%20is%20where%20suffering%20ensues.%20%E2%80%94%20%40JasonPrall&#038;related=mindvalley&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mindvalley.com%2Fblog%2Fjason-prall%2F&#038;via=mindvalley' target='_blank' class='bctt-ctt-btn'rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Share on X<\/a><\/span>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s take the circadian rhythm, for example. There are so many ways we\u2019re completely turning our sleep schedule upside down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For starters, we\u2019re forcing kids to wake up much earlier than their biological clocks would prefer, which then impacts their ability to learn and increases their risk of injury. What\u2019s more, adults are throwing off their internal clocks, thanks to screen time before bedtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While it may seem like such a small thing to worry about, pushing against our natural sleep patterns affects everything from our mood to our metabolism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Science says so, too\u2014exposure to artificial light at night can significantly affect sleep. One <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/26375320\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">study<\/a> even found that too much of it \u201c<em>may have negative effects on the psychological, cardiovascular, and\/or metabolic functions<\/em>.\u201d Another <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC6563591\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">study<\/a> found that it\u2019s \u201c<em>significantly associated with increased risk of weight gain and obesity<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While hustling might bring in the dough, slowing down and syncing to our biological rhythms isn\u2019t just beneficial; as Jason highlights, it\u2019s essential for a longer, healthier life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-the-blue-zone-centenarians-are-doing-right\">What the Blue Zone centenarians are doing right<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In his docu-series, <em>The Human Longevity Project<\/em>, Jason and his crew travel through the Blue Zones. These are the places\u2014Sardinia, Italy; Okinawa, Japan; and Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica, to name a few\u2014where a good majority are devoid of chronic disease and live an exceptionally long life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But there, it\u2019s not about the latest anti-aging trends or <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/biohacking-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">biohacking<\/a> techniques. Instead, it\u2019s something far more&#8230; well, simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c<em>The key<\/em>,\u201d says Jason, using Sardinia and the way they\u2019ve lived over the last 100 years as an example, \u201c<em>is the simplicity\u2014simplicity of thought, simplicity of food, simplicity of the way of life<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/daily-routine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">daily routine<\/a> includes putting in those steps, not because it\u2019s a chore but because it\u2019s a way of life. They drink water straight from mountain springs. And in their society, family and community are top priorities, which help contribute significantly to their mental and emotional well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BWLIHq-AIAy\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

But living a life of happiness and health does start with taking steps to enhance your vitality and lower your <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/biological-age\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">biological age<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So the question boils down to this: Short of moving to the countryside and becoming a shepherd, how can you apply the Blue Zone\u2019s habits to your modern life? Here\u2019s what Jason suggests for optimal health:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-simplify-your-diet\">1. Simplify your diet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sure, processed foods might be the quick and easy solution for a meal on the go or after a long day at work. However, they\u2019re packed with artificial ingredients and high in sugar, which can wreak havoc on your <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/gut-microbiome\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">gut microbiome<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, start with what\u2019s on your plate. Chuck those Pop-Tarts, breakfast cereals, and microwave dinners and start, as Jason advises, \u201c<em>eating better foods\u2014more natural, organic foods<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your body is your temple, as the saying goes. Feed it the things\u2014like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins\u2014that nourish and revitalize your health rather than deplete it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-prioritize-physical-activity\">2. Prioritize physical activity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gym is life for a number of people. But for the Blue Zone elders, movement is life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Granted, many of them are shepherds, so walking 30 to 40 kilometers a day is just another Monday. However, this kind of low-intensity activity can really amp up your health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3448908\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2012 study<\/a>, getting active does way more than just make you look good. It helps sharpen your brain, give your immune system a boost, get your gut health on point, and even make your liver happier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c<em>The entire system<\/em>,\u201d Jason points out, \u201c<em>changes by just improving and getting more exercise.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-foster-strong-social-connections\">3. Foster strong social connections<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everything is online nowadays. Even communication has gone digital. And while technology has made staying connected easier, being connected is a whole other thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it\u2019s what centenarians do best\u2014they have strong social support networks. Here\u2019s what that looks like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In Okinawa, Japan, there\u2019s the concept of \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluezones.com\/2018\/08\/moai-this-tradition-is-why-okinawan-people-live-longer-better\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Moai<\/a>,\u201d a group of lifelong friends that support each other emotionally, financially, and health-wise. They gather regularly to chat, share advice, and provide support, and this contributes significantly to their mental and emotional well-being.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In Sardinia, Italy, families often live in multi-generational homes, where grandparents play a key role in the household. This arrangement provides them with a sense of purpose and keeps them actively involved in family affairs and childcare.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In Loma Linda, California, community members often gather for group meals or participate in community services. They can exchange recipes, engage in healthy eating, and enjoy social interaction.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Surely, other places have their own way of fostering social connections. But regardless of what they are, the common denominator is that human connection nourishes the soul, reinforces a sense of belonging, and proves to be a crucial ingredient in the recipe for longevity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-practice-stress-management\">4. Practice stress management<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stress is just a part of life\u2014no shocker here. In short doses, it can actually be good for you (this kind of stress is called eustress, just FYI). It can give you energy and help you focus, which is great for getting things done and figuring out problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, chronic stress? That can really affect your physical and mental health. It can lead to a ton of health issues, including anxiety, depression, heart disease, weight gain, memory and concentration impairment, and the list goes on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here\u2019s the thing, though: According to <strong>Ben Greenfield<\/strong>, a biohacker and trainer of Mindvalley\u2019s <em>The Longevity Blueprint<\/em>, you can actually train your body to handle stress better by using both hot and cold temperatures to make your body more resilient.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, you can use the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/the-wim-hof-method\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Wim Hof Method<\/a>, which focuses on cold exposure, and then jump into a sauna. If you want something simpler, Ben suggests a five-minute shower\u201420 seconds of cold with 10 seconds of hot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The idea of it all? By exposing yourself to these extreme temperatures, you\u2019re teaching your body to stay calm and collected no matter what life throws at you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-get-quality-sleep\">5. Get quality sleep<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c<em>Sleep is where all healing happens<\/em>,\u201d Jason explains. \u201c<em>When you don\u2019t get enough sleep, you can\u2019t recover that; you can\u2019t get it back by sleeping more the next day<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s called sleep debt, where the cumulative lack of sleep builds up over time and robs you of your mental sharpness and physical vitality. Not only that, it can also affect your decision-making, cognitive function, and overall health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The thing is, too, that chronic sleep deprivation can lead to a cycle where poor sleep can cause poor decisions, which in turn can lead to more sleep deprivation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s why prioritizing sleep is crucial. And here are a few easy things Jason suggests you can do to get the quality zzz\u2019s your body needs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Set a consistent bedtime schedule. <\/strong>Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Create a restful environment.<\/strong> Consider using room-darkening shades, a fan, or other devices to make sure your bedroom is cool, dark, and quiet.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Limit screen time before bed<\/strong>, especially if you often find yourself caught in <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/revenge-bedtime-procrastination\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bedtime revenge procrastination<\/a>. Avoid screens for at least an hour before going to bed and choose to wind down with a relaxing activity, like reading a book or taking a warm bath, instead.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remember, feeling rested is one thing. But by making sleep a priority, you\u2019re giving your body the downtime it needs to repair and regenerate so that you\u2019re ready to go the next day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-reduce-exposure-to-toxins\">6. Reduce exposure to toxins<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The word \u201ctoxins\u201d often goes hand-in-hand with pollutants and chemicals. But what many don\u2019t often connect it to are thoughts and emotions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So to truly minimize your exposure to toxins, Jason advises you to consider both the external and internal factors:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Externally<\/strong>, make conscious choices about what you consume and the products you use. Opt for organic foods and natural cleaning products. Ensure the air and <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/shawn-stevenson\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">water quality<\/a> in your home is up to par.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Internally<\/strong>, nurture your mental and emotional health. Prioritize quality sleep, align with your natural circadian rhythms, and engage in practices that reduce stress and emotional turmoil. Additionally, simplify your diet, adopt mindful eating within specific windows, such as from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., and foster healthy relationships.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As well-known physician Dr. Mark Hyman says, \u201c<em>The simple truth is that we are living in a sea of toxins, and it is destroying our bodies and brains<\/em>.\u201d But making these changes can significantly reduce the burden on your body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-cultivate-a-healthy-mindset\">7. Cultivate a healthy mindset<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What Jason found in his filming for <em>The Human Longevity Project<\/em> is that centenarians possess an innate ability to find joy in the simple things. They have this way of keeping a hopeful outlook, regardless of circumstances. Gratitude, letting go of grudges to avoid stress, and embracing changes with courage\u2014these all contribute to their resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The reality is, for us living the fast life, we\u2019re \u201c<em>way too overactive in our minds<\/em>,\u201d according to Jason. So how can you adopt a healthy mindset like a Blue Zoner?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c<em>Slowing things down, making things a little bit more simple<\/em>,\u201d he advises. Practicing mindfulness through meditation or journaling can help you appreciate life\u2019s moments, no matter how big or small.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And by changing your thoughts about yourself and taking control of your health, you plant the seeds for a healthier life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-live-vibrantly-naturally\">Live vibrantly, naturally<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Jason Prall reminds us, simplicity is the key to longevity. No one\u2019s asking you to chuck out the old to make room for the new. But, instead, make small, mindful adjustments to your daily routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Walk up the stairs instead of taking the elevator. Snack on a fruit instead of a donut. Read a book instead of scrolling aimlessly through social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s no walk in the park, of course. So if you need help getting there, you can find it with Ben Greenfield in his Mindvalley Quest, <em><strong>The Longevity Blueprint<\/strong><\/em>. It\u2019ll be a transformative journey, for sure, where you\u2019ll discover not just how to add years to your life, but life to your years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Welcome in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Modern life can challenge our well-being.
