What if your brain held the keys to living longer and healthier? In this solo episode, I dive into the fascinating intersection of neuroscience and longevity, unpacking how the nervous system shapes resilience, recovery, and the aging process. Drawing on both science and personal experience, I’ll explore how practices like meditation, nervous system training, and targeted stimulation can help us unlock more years and better years. 

We’ll cover:

  • Why the autonomic nervous system is the hidden regulator of health and longevity
  • How neuroplasticity impacts the body and mind
  • The ways foot stimulation impacts the brain to reduce fall risk and extend independence
  • What psychoneuroimmunology teaches us about stress, inflammation, and the immune system’s role in aging, or “inflammaging” 
  • Insights from meditation, HRV tracking, and direct experience of rewiring the nervous system for resilience

This is more than a discussion about just living longer, it’s about living better too. Join me as we uncover how neuroscience provides both the framework and the tools to train your brain and body for vibrant health and longevity.
