Here is a clip from my appearance on Wellness Wednesdays with Sally Duplantier:

FIVE PRIMARY POINTS of the PODCAST

1. The Vitality Flywheel: Movement → Clarity → Consistency → Energy

Dr. Mishra emphasizes that vitality begins with movement, which sparks clarity, builds consistency, and generates energy—creating a self-sustaining flywheel. Over eight years of daily writing (647 posts, 194 podcasts) taught him that consistent effort fuels vitality and creativity.

2. Time Is Our Ultimate Currency

Time—not fitness, health, or biomarkers—is the most valuable asset. We trade it daily for money, comfort, or distraction, yet it should be used intentionally to enhance physical, mental, social, and spiritual well-being. Dr. Mishra advises tracking your minutes, planning your day around energy peaks, and asking, “Did I use my time and energy well today?”

3. Sleep and Mental Health as Hidden Multipliers

Sleep and mental health are intertwined and act as multipliers of vitality. Poor sleep undermines emotional and physical health. He recommends:

* Maintaining a consistent sleep schedule

* Creating a “digital dusk” by reducing screens and light before bed

* Treating sleep as a required course, not an elective, for vitality

4. Scientific Insights: Liquid Biopsy and Vitamin D

Two key medical topics are explored:

* Liquid Biopsy (Galleri Test): Detects cancer via cell-free DNA with 99.6% specificity but only 40.4% sensitivity. Dr. Mishra finds it promising but not yet worth $1,000 without strong family cancer history.

* Vitamin D and Spine Surgery: Low vitamin D (<20 ng/mL) correlates with a 69% higher risk of revision surgery, plus increased infection, readmission, and death. He strongly recommends testing and optimizing vitamin D preoperatively.

5. The #1 Vitality Principle: Bet on Yourself

In closing, Dr. Mishra’s most important advice is to “bet on yourself to be the hero of your own journey.” Taking responsibility for one’s choices and actions builds resilience and vitality. Empowering oneself to take control is the foundation of living boldly and thriving.
