S11 E21: The Blue Zones Habits for Happiness: Insights for Living a Longer, Happier Life With Dan Buettner

Dan Buettner, the discoverer of the Blue Zones, has spent decades studying the longevity factors of the longest-living populations around the globe — they naturally move frequently, eat largely a plant-based diet, have a strong sense of purpose, and are connected to community, to name a few. Another factor that can be a challenge to measure but is no less important is happiness.

In this episode, Buettner shares the learnings we can all apply to live longer, happier lives. He also discusses the power of a whole-foods, plant-focused diet on longevity, including insights from his new book, Blue Zones Kitchen: One Pot Meals, 100 Recipes to Live to 100.
