Hello my lovely writers.
Do you want to have a long and healthy life? Do you want to have longevity so you’re here and writing for a long, long time?
I found out a fun fact from my physio today. He told me about one of Andrew Huberman’s podcast episodes. Andrew Huberman hosts Huberman’s Lab, which is all to do with brain function, body function and having a long and healthy life.
Fun fact
It turns out that pushing yourself out of your comfort zone isn’t just a trendy phrase but actually has neurological and health benefits.
If you regularly do something you don’t want to do, or something that feels overwhelming, and that could be something like I’m doing at the moment, which is turning my shower to cold at the end and doing the Wim Hof method, but you make yourself do it, you’re actually stimulating your brain to grow and function better.
The more often you make yourself do something you don’t want to do, the better it is for your brain health. Then, as a consequence, it creates a domino effect in that it’s better for your longevity and overall health.
So, yet another reason that doing something challenging regularly is good for you.
It’s not just about getting that book finished but actually, it’s going to have long-term benefits for you too.
A fun fact I thought I would share with you.
