25.01.2022 The best book on stress and it’s affect on the body & mind I have read! Relatable, straight forward & beautifully explained! Yes it is a meditation book with a very simple & realistic method I believe everyone could do but what I loved was the authors understanding of how ‘we all’ think about meditation and why it truly is ‘life changing’ for anyone wanting to live an optimal life!
25.01.2022 Turn off your WiFi at night! Why take the chance? You are asleep so turn off your ‘whole house WiFi ‘ with a simple PowerPoint timer! One day soon you might realize how important lowering EMF exposure really is!!

21.01.2022 Awesome to participate in the Springs golf day for @gotcha4life Men’s mental health is a ‘big deal’ and we all have to be aware of mates who just might need to talk! I have closely known two amazing young men who took their own life and who redefine the definition of ‘unbelievable’ for me forever!

21.01.2022 Good clean water! Once you realize what is in the water we drink & what a HUGE difference good water makes you will never go back! This bench top Waters Co BIO 500 filter is the best I could find on the market & uses 13 different filter systems. Not cheap but I have signed on as a health wholesaler so I can get you a good 20% discount. Just let me know! Everyone should drink pure well mineralized water! Just like sunshine & clean air it is all about the simple things for optimum health! PS - bottled water (even BPA free) may be doing you more harm than good!
21.01.2022 This year the motto is ‘Conscious Health’! Bring on 2021!
20.01.2022 This morning was a stunning sunrise walk up the ‘mountain’ with a local legend & one of the driving forces behind regenerative sustainable farming in Australia. A true inspiration & what he told me about the devastatingly harmful affects on the land & your health of pesticides, most notably glyphosate found in Round-Up, would make you never use chemicals again! A huge reminder from a real ‘boots on the ground’ farmer showing that we must learn to use natural products, practices & methods for a healthy future!
20.01.2022 There is just nothing that compares to the lacrosse ball for making an amazing difference to your joint & muscle mobility. It just gets in deeper & more targeted than any other self help exercise can! The glutes/hips & shoulder regions are the most effective! Go to my YouTube channel on link in my bio to see how to do it right!
20.01.2022 Because if you can’t you are not truly functionally strong & mobile! We make you strong, supple & ‘life ready’... now & for all your MANY years to come!
20.01.2022 Plant based lunches are a great routine to adopt! Every week I (well my lovely wife) makes my rainbow lunches every Sunday! 4 delicious plant only lunches Mon-Thur (the 5th salmon one is my daughters) full of real food goodness! What’s in it!... mixed leaves & spinach avocado tomato capsicum olives walnuts, pistachio, macadamia kimchi & saurkraut olive oil (lots of it) See more
20.01.2022 Sometimes we all need ‘a hand’ with our exercises! Truly man’s best friend!
20.01.2022 The 80/20 Rule! A key philosophy of Forever Young Studios is look after your health most of the time but life is short so feel free to indulge sometimes, slow down & enjoy the finer things along the way! Good wine & naps amongst the vines fit that philosophy perfectly!
19.01.2022 A day in the life of lockdown! No sitting around... get out there and do stuff! Climb tress, cycle, swim, dance, stretch, hike, cook & play with the dog! Like life it’s all about attitude! Be proactive & you ‘just have to get on with it & make the most of what you got’!
18.01.2022 Organifi Superfood Juices My Number One supplement of the year! There is no doubt a ‘green smoothie’ is the single best way to ensure you get some of the most nutritious foods on the planet into your system! ... But making smoothies takes time! So I searched the globe for 2yrs for the best organic superfood juice that I could just add to water! Organifi is simply the best collection of amazingly rich vitamin & mineral containing foods on the planet. This ‘stuff’ has taken my optimal wellness to another level. My whole family takes these 3 juices every day. I love it so much I am now one of Australia’s only suppliers so I can save you 20% if you want to try it! Contact us at [email protected] or by link in bio!
18.01.2022 Your Work/Rest ratio is the key to optimal performance... in energy, in work & in life! You simply must prioritize rest/recover time (not just sleep) into your days & weeks if you want to function at optimum capacity! As a voracious reader mine often involves a good book! Meditation or naps work great too!
18.01.2022 Team Belle! Kicking butt on the training paddock to keep at the top of their real estate game!
17.01.2022 Your Pillow is one of the most important aspects of optimal health in your life! You spend 1/3 your life with your head on it... breathing on it...breathing it in! Here is what a good pillow means: * Good for your neck & sleeping position! ... * Non-toxic & chemical free * Natural, organic & eco/friendly * Anti-bacterial & hypoallergenic * Resistant to dust mites & mold * Clean and not past used by date! Yes your pillow should be one of the most informed purchases you make as it can literally affect every aspect of your health! Everyone is different but for me an organic natural contour latex pillow is my pick! If you are not spending about $100 plus you are probably compromising your health!
16.01.2022 Magnesium is absolutely essential for optimum health! Over 80% of the population is magnesium deficient! Magnesium is involved in over 300 bodily functions & actions It helps in stress response, bone health, stabilize blood sugar, regulate blood pressure , detoxification and much more! Try to eat more of the foods above but ideally you may need to consider a quality supplement. I prefer Jigsaw Health Mag SRT (pictured) from Kimikim Organics.
16.01.2022 THE LACROSSE BALL Never leave home without it! The most portable, versatile & effective piece of fitness equipment for holidays!
16.01.2022 Grounding optimizes your health! I know it sounds ‘whoo’ but we are all batteries... a series of electrochemical reactions that make everything happen! We live in a state of positive charge yet connecting with the earth via walking barefoot (even better after a lightning storm) or swimming in the ocean allows you to absorb negative ions and balance your harmful positive state! So take your shoes off or take a dip in the ocean whenever you can!
14.01.2022 We want you to live in optimal health but it is important to get the balance right and enjoy yourself along the way! That is an integral part of our ethos!
14.01.2022 Healthy hot chips anyone! The airfryer is a must have invention! Everyone loves chips right ... but truth is they may be one of the worst foods on the planet because they are almost always cooked in old vegetable oil! With an Air Fryer you simply cut up potatoes & add some extra Virgin olive oil to fryer and ‘hey presto’ you get golden crunchy ‘healthy’ chips! Pure genius!
14.01.2022 Animal flow rocks for optimal mobility... Duck, panther, goanna, crab, bear, cobra, gorilla,scorpion...

13.01.2022 My health resolutions for 2021! Yes these ‘things’ may be more powerful than any diet, exercise, sleep or lifestyle strategies for optimizing your health & longevity!

09.01.2022 FLEXIBILITY AT 80yrs OLD!!! Never too old to start stretching! Lack of mobility is the most common complaint of aging... but it doesn’t have to be! My dad has been active his whole life as a farmer, shearer & ‘handy’ sportsmen but NEVER has he bothered with stretching! ... Well turning 80yrs old this year he has decided its time to start! Here he is demonstrating 3 of my favorite ‘park bench’ stretches he does after his walk. 1) Bum (glutes) stretch 2) Hamstring stretch 3) Hip flexor & quad stretch The bench works great because you can use natural gravity, your arms to help & most importantly you can can stay in the stretches comfortably... ideally over 1 min each!

05.01.2022 Eat WILD SALMON! Not all salmon is created equal! Yes it is a wonderful source of omega 3 & quality protein but beware farmed salmon! Wild salmon is king! Farmed salmon are not only less nutrient dense but are probable sources of chemicals & inflammatory agents because the fish are fed processed food, antibiotics and other non natural products to make them grow faster & fatter! Avoid farmed salmon if you possibly can. Buying frozen or canned wild salmon can often be your best option!
04.01.2022 Does wearing sunglasses ALL THE TIME hurt your eyes? In short ... it depends! On one hand many optometrists will tell you to wear sunglasses when out in sun to protect your eyes from ‘harmful’ UV light and on the other there is good science to show your eyes have good built in protection properties to protect themselves and blocking the light with sunglasses affects your health and disrupts circadian rhythm! There is NO DOUBT in my research that getting the ear...ly morning light in your eyes & on your skin (light receptors there too) is one of the best ways to improve sleep and live an optimal life! So the routine I recommend is: No sunglasses before 10am Good quality sunglasses between 10am-4pm only if needed No sunglasses after 4-5pm to allow secretion of melatonin and wind down for sleep!

03.01.2022 This book should be compulsory reading for all people young & old! ‘By showing us how to consciously rewire our brains for connection, compassion, and better decisions, Brain Wash provides a framework for reclaiming joy and health in the modern world.' - Deepak Chopra, author of Metahuman... 'Brain Wash reveals how our day-to-day decisions are deeply influenced and actively manipulated by the modern world. But more importantly, it is a powerful manual that allows each of us to reclaim control of our choices and make better decisions that will pave the way for health and happiness. While we generally know what's best for ourselves, acting on this knowledge is a constant struggle. Brain Wash allows us to turn this knowledge into action. I highly recommend this innovative book.' - Daniel G. Amen, MD, founder, Amen Clinics and author of The End of Mental Illness "Brain Wash provides the tools for each of us to live a happier, more contented life. Drs. David and Austin Perlmutter engage our most current understanding of neuroscience to reveal how the brain can be functionally reconfigured to distance ourselves from pervasive negativity and welcome empathy and compassion back into our lives. The choices we make each day in terms of what we eat, how well we sleep, and even how we interact with our digital world all contribute to our worldview. And central to the Brain Wash mission is maximizing these and other choices towards seeing and creating a better world."Dr. Rudolph Tanzi, Professor of Neurology, Harvard Medical School, and author of The Healing Self
