Why Neuroscience is the Final Frontier of Self-Help

It was once the view that brain remained largely unchanged once we reached adulthood. There is even the oft-repeated myth that our brain is incapable of making new brain cells. Both are false - we now know that the brain can change itself structurally in response to stimuli throughout our life. How does this relate to self-help? By having the power to change our brain, we have the power to change our life.

Can You Train When Fasting?

⚠️ CAN YOU TRAIN WHEN FASTING? ⚠️ 💡Fasting has many health benefits that you've probably heard of by now. But one question I constantly get asked is about training whilst fasting and whether or not it is counter. Especially now, with #ramadan around the corner, it's the perfect time to delve into some #science and get the answer. ⚠️ Long story short: fasting has little to no effect on the results seen in three common training modalities: endurance, strength, and high intensity interval training. ⏭ It comes down to a personal preference insofar as how you feel when you're fasting and whether or not you have the energy to complete the workout. There is no one size fits all in fitness, the best choice you can make is one that you can maintain long term. So if fasted training seems impossible, then there is nothing lost (or gained) in moving your workout to another time in the day!

Why Meditating Will Make Dieting Easier for the Rest of Your Life

I am almost certain that you've never been told to meditate as a part of a diet program. That's the reason why every other diet you've ever undertaken has been that difficult. The simple fact is that if you have a meditation habit, dieting will be easier for the rest of your life. Why can I say that? Meditation directly improves a group of functions in your brain called the Executive Functions - which don't just sound important, they are critically important for things so fundamental to our existence we struggle to appreciate them. They are also intimately linked with dieting as I explain in this podcast.

2020 Was The Best Year In Human History

Let me start off by saying: 2020 was the best year in recorded human history. I wholeheartedly believe that statement and I came with sources. 2020 was an incredibly difficult year for so many people, for so many reasons. There was abject misery across the globe, make no mistake. Despite the fact everything seems bad, through changing your perspective and focussing on what good actually came out of so-called “bad” year you can hopefully realise that it’s not so bad as it seems. This is an audio version of my article with the same title, which includes sources for every statement I make in this podcast. (Read it HERE for free: tiny.cc/2020bestyearQED ) My name is Nikki Thomas and I believe fitness is the key to physical and mental wellbeing, and fitness begins and ends all within your head. If you change your mindset, you can change your life. It's that simple. Follow me on Facebook/Instagram/Patreon/Twitter/TikTok/YouTube - @qedfitness
