    643: Mindfulness for Busy People with Willem Kuyken

    What if you were more present in your life—at work, at home, with the people and projects that mean the most to you? What if you spent less time ruminating about the past and worrying about the future? Wouldn’t that be nice? I think mindfulness is at its peak popularity right now because most of us are so mindless most of the time—doom scrolling, binge watching, and filled with fear, all while missing out on the lives we’ve worked so hard to build. Or maybe that’s just me. My guest this week is a psychologist who has blended cognitive behavioral therapy with mindfulness to achieve remarkable results. Listen and learn: How anyone, even a busy new mom, can learn to add in mindful practices throughout the day How Eastern wisdom can inform Western lives The power of noticing but not welcoming the storm on the horizon The role of mindfulness in managing depression Links: https://www.psych.ox.ac.uk/team/willem-kuyken https://bit.ly/m/MindfulnessforLife ABOUT OUR GUEST Willem Kuyken, PhD, is a clinical psychologist and professor of mindfulness and psychological science at the University of Oxford. He is known for his work on mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), focusing on using mindfulness to prevent depression and promote mental wellbeing.

    The Health Benefits of Muscle with Dan van den Hoek

    When you think about healthspan and longevity, your first thought probably isn’t “muscle” - but it should be.

On this week's podcast, you’ll meet an exercise physiologist who will help you understand not just the “why” but also the “how” behind strength training.   Listen and learn: The importance of strength training, particularly in later life The difference between Type I and Type II muscles The dangers of lifting - myth vs reality How to get strong without adding bulk Link Dan’s Site ABOUT OUR GUEST Dan van den Hoek is a Senior Lecturer with a PhD in Clinical Exercise Physiology.

    Understanding Fiber and Gut Health with Dr. Will Bulsiewicz

    Fiber is often overlooked in discussions about diet, weight loss, and immunity, but it shouldn’t be. Fiber is essential for digestive health, improving gut motility, and regulating bowel movements. It’s also key for weight management, as high-fiber foods are more filling. Research shows that fiber can reduce LDL cholesterol, potentially lowering the risk of heart disease. Additionally, fiber lowers the glycemic load of foods, helping to prevent metabolic syndrome and related conditions. Fiber also plays a crucial role in microbiome health, acting as a prebiotic to support the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, which positively impacts immune function, mental health, and more. The issue? Most of us don’t eat enough fiber or a wide variety of plants. My guest on this podcast is a gastroenterologist who literally wrote the book on fiber and will share his insights on how to heal your gut. Listen and learn: About fiber, resistant starch, and polyphenols as prebiotics Why you should aim to eat 30 plant foods weekly The importance of colorful plant foods How fiber transforms into anti-inflammatory short chain fats in your gut The reward vs. risks of fecal transplants Links: Will’s site ABOUT OUR GUEST Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, MD, MSCI, is a board-certified gastroenterologist, gut health expert, and New York Times bestselling author of Fiber Fueled.

    Understanding Chronic Pain with Dr. David Clarke

    Chronic pain affects hundreds of millions worldwide, with conditions like gastrointestinal issues, back pain, and migraine topping the list.

My guest this week has dedicated his work to educating both medical professionals and patients on the power of the mind to relieve and even reverse chronic pain. Listen and learn: How adverse childhood experiences can contribute to or even cause chronic pain Why most medical professionals are not trained in psychological triggers for chronic pain How awareness, vocalization, and writing can potentially help The future of pain treatment Learn more at: EndChronicPain.org ABOUT OUR GUEST Dr. David Clarke is President of the Psycho-physio-logic Disorders Association (PPDA), a nonprofit focused on addressing chronic pain through a biopsychosocial approach.

    Weight Loss Bankruptcy with Lucas Rockwood

    The iconic brand Tupperware filed for bankruptcy this week, burdened with over $1.2 billion of debt. They’ve reached a point of no return, where digging out is virtually impossible. In many ways, this mirrors the struggle of those facing severe obesity—a situation where years of weight gain have led to a seemingly insurmountable challenge. Just as companies can file for Chapter 11 and start afresh, people now have a potential reset button with the advent of weight loss drugs like semaglutide. In this week’s podcast, I’ll delve into this rapidly evolving landscape and what it could mean for those facing their own weight loss bankruptcy. Listen and learn: How diabetes drugs are being used for weight loss and why Are diabetics missing out because of this trend? What are the safety concerns and risks of these new drugs? What happens when you stop using them? The risks vs rewards of long-term use Navigating the costs and practical considerations Like the Show? Leave us a review Check out our YouTube channel

    Neuroscience might be the final frontier when it comes to the human body. There is still so much to be discovered and understood about memory, attention, and how we learn. My guest on this week’s podcast runs a research lab at UCLA that uses brain imaging and electrical stimulation to see if science can move the needle and unlock our potential. Listen and learn: What memory is and why it’s impossible to isolate in the brain Why some primates have better short-term recall than humans How theta wave stimulation might improve memory The challenges with testing and tracking attention Links Jesse’s Site ABOUT OUR GUEST Dr. Jesse Rissman is an Associate Professor at UCLA in both the Psychology and Psychiatry departments.

    Understanding Sleep with Dr. Ketema Paul

    Sleep is as vital for life as food, water, and breathing, but knowing its importance doesn’t necessarily provide you with the tools to improve it.

On this week’s podcast, you’ll meet a researcher whose work is focused on understanding and improving sleep homeostasis. Listen and learn: Why some people don’t operate on a 24 hour clock How certain individuals seem to adapt to irregular work schedules without health problems Sleep pattern changes with aging and what that means for your health The importance of seeing a sleep specialist if you suspect any problems Gizmos vs. lab tech vs. subjective journaling LINKS Dr. Paul’s Lab ABOUT OUR GUEST Dr. Ketema Paul is a professor of integrative biology and physiology at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).
