I was recently at a health conference and ducked into a hotel room to sit down for a fascinating episode with Boris Berjan, for an episode during which you'll get to explore the powerful role of chronotypes and "zeitgebers"—external cues like light, food, and temperature that regulate your biological rhythm—in optimizing sleep patterns, particularly if you're on the move across different time zones. The word zeitgeber, originating from the German zeit (time) and geber (giver), refers to the environmental signals that help synchronize your internal clock with the external world. Boris and I dive into the hierarchy of sleep, exercise, and nutrition, breaking down how these essential pillars shape the foundation of true health and longevity. Beyond the physical, we explore the deeper connections between spirituality, purpose, and the pursuit of an extended, meaningful life.

Whether you're looking to refine your health, expand your knowledge, or explore the intersection of science and spirituality, this episode is packed with insights to help you on your journey.
