Description

Today I'm thrilled to get to talk to the author of one of my favorite books on health, Pilar Gerasimo. She is an award-winning journalist, author, founding editor of Experience Life Magazine and author of The Healthy Deviant: A Rule Breaker's Guide to Being Healthy in an Unhealthy World.
In our discussion we address why health isn't some easy-breezy thing to accomplish in today's world. In fact, she says that choosing to be healthy is a revolutionary and socially deviant act.

Being healthy requires unconventional strategies and non-conformist choices. Tune in and listen to what Pilar highlights as her top strategies for being healthy in an unhealthy world.

Takeaways:

• The low standards that we use to determine “health”
• Other measurements of health that may be even more critical
• Is digital evolution creating an evolutionary mismatch
• Why we can’t pull off the simple tasks of being healthy
• Inflammatory signals and how to interpret
• The one thing that separates healthy people from unhealthy people
• Activism fatigue
• What symptoms should you pay attention to - Weird symptom checklist
• Renegade ritual of a morning routine
