We all want to live healthy long lives. The health and wellness industry is a billion dollar industry because people want to learn more about how to get health and stay that way for a wonderful vibrant life. Dan Buettner, a national geography explorer, has written a book that examines the common threads of what is required to have a long and healthy life. The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who've Lived the Longest an important point mentioned in the book that the behaviors that are done over a lifetime are the one’s that have contributed to the health and longevity. SO we must create a healthy behavior and continue them for a lifetime. These are some of the main points that from the book. Rest and take naps during the day - honor your body’s request to rest when you are tired. Eat a plant based diet concentrate eating fruits and vegetables, beans, nuts and seeds, and whole grains. Plant based diets reduce the risk of all chronic diseases. All types of exercise are important and fun to do but walking daily over your lifetime increases your life expectancy. Finally surround yourself with healthy people they will help you stay on track and encourage you to eat and live healthy.

As a naturopathic physician, I love the simplicity that the research in this book provides, living health and well is paying attention to your body and what it needs. This book shows that those people who live a healthy long life are in living in healthy communities where people support one another and enjoy and appreciate their lives. I hope you can see ideas where you can enjoy and appreciate your life.

Live Vibrantly,

Dr. Dae
