1. Featured Podcast- The Drive with Peter Attia and Michael Easter

"The comfort crisis, doing hard things, rucking, and more..."

Michael Easter is the author of the bestseller, The Comfort Crisis. He’s also a journalist, Professor of Journalism at UNLV, and a leading voice on how humans can integrate modern science and wisdom for improved health, meaning, and performance in life and at work. In this episode, Michael first talks about his upbringing, including his parents’ struggle with alcoholism, his father leaving when he was young, and how these things impacted Michael’s own struggle with alcoholism. He explains what led to his realization that we are in a “crisis of comfort” and how the removal of many of life’s discomforts through advancements in modern society may actually be a leading contributor to many of our most urgent physical and mental health issues. He explains the benefits of challenging oneself and the immense positive carryover which can come from doing things we find difficult. He describes the consequences of technology like smartphones, which have effectively eliminated boredom—a discomfort that comes with many benefits. He tells the story of a profound experience at an elk hunt that changed Michael’s thoughts around life and death, how happiness can thrive in places without all of the modern comforts of the West, and why we’re hardwired for stress and what to do about it. They conclude with a conversation around rucking, an activity with many physical and mental benefits.

2. Expert Tips

Video: The power of exercise and diet modification as told by Dr. Sean Rockett, an orthopedic surgeon with 20 years of experience in sports medicine and Dr. Ronda Rockett, a family medicine practitioner for 12 years.

Today, the couple operate CrossFit Launchpad in Wellesley, Massachusetts, where they are preventing and curing chronic disease.

“I get to help people prevent disease … through exercise, diet, sleep, stress management, positive attitude,” Ronda says.

Owning an affiliate, she adds, allows her to spend several hours a week helping individuals change their lives—well beyond the limited time a doctor can usually spend with a patient in the office.

“I’m still doing family medicine, but it’s much more preventive,” she says. “And of course, I no longer prescribe medication. I still get to help people be the best that they can be.”

3. Client Success Story: Mrs. Claire crushing her gait speed

Check out this video highlighting Mrs. Claire running during her OT session. Walking speed is a crucial indicator of health and those that are unable to increase their walking speed are at a higher risk of cognitive decline, hospitalization, falls, and need for assistance. Want to stay out of the nursing home and maintain independence as you age? Learning to walk fast can help! We work on this with a lot of clients; in order to walk fast strength, balance, and coordination must be addressed.
