The world around us continually requires more of us while we give less and less thought to our long-term health. This distracted and overwhelmed mindset has landed us squarely in survival mode, depriving us of the necessary steps to create lasting, sustained energy. The truth is most of us are so exhausted and don't know how to find the energy to live our best lives.

As I've mentioned many times before on podcasts, I've been using something called a "Continuous Glucose Monitor" (CGM) at various intervals throughout my life for about 4 years or so. I explore these questions and many others in this podcast with Josh Clemente.

I'll admit that I've never been a fan of the "juicing" and "cold-pressed juice" trend. Most of these juices are full of sugar that provide very little of the actual fiber and water you'd find in whole fruit. Yet, recently, I've begun drinking actual liquid juices again, as have my wife and kids.

In this special episode of the podcast, recorded live at Ben's house in Spokane, Washington, Ra Optics founder and light/circadian rhythm expert Matt Maruca interviews Ben Greenfield.
info_outlineJohn Eldredge is a bestselling author, a counselor, and a teacher. He is also president of Ransomed Heart, a ministry devoted to helping people discover the heart of God, recover their own hearts in God’s love, and learn to live in God’s kingdom. John and his wife, Stasi, live near Colorado Springs, Colorado.
John has written several books in the realm of fatherhood, family and that I hold dear, including:
Wild at Heart: Discovering the Secret of a Man's Soul,
Fathered by God: Learning What Your Dad Could Never Teach You,
Waking The Dead: The Secret to a Heart Fully Alive and
Love & War: Find Your Way to Something Beautiful in Your Marriage .
Lately, I've also been taking a brief 1 to 10-minute “pause” during the day to connect with my breathe, myself and most importantly, God. The One Minute Pause app that I've been using is a simple way to reconnect with God in the midst of a busy day. John Eldredge is also the "voice" of this this app, which invites you into the simple practice of releasing everything to God, restoring your union with God and inviting Him to into your heart. The length of time is perfect, and the music/breath pacing has been working very well for me. You can click here to give it a try!
