Episode 16 - Having deep connections is essential for optimal health, and living your best and most vibrant life

Isolating oneself can be a bigger factor of health and mortality risk versus smoking, alcohol consumption, even poor diet! The way our brain is programmed, we want to keep things the same because same equals safe. However, transformations are easily, beautifully facilitated when you have other people who are going through a similar situation -- thresholds are stretched and we push through the other side a much more whole, healthy individual. You can't cultivate true health transformation without people. “When the other’s story is so similar to yours, but they've transformed that and turn it into their power, that instantaneously gives you permission to do the same” Learn that the connections with others create that trust and create that foundation for true, lasting change to happen. Rise above when you harness the impact of the community and the empowering wonders it does to ones health.
