Proven Ways to Extend Your Life & Here’s The Cure for Loneliness

from Something You Should Know · host Mike Carruthers | OmniCast Media

People need physical touch and too many of us are not getting enough of it. The result is something called “touch starvation.” This episode begins by explaining what happens when people are deprived of skin-to-skin contact, why it is so prevalent and what we need to do about it. https://www.webmd.com/balance/touch-starvation Have you ever wondered how long you will live? Other than “living sensibly,” are there really things you can do that will prolong your lifespan significantly? Biologist and science writer Andrew Steele has been on a journey to uncover the very latest science on human longevity and the techniques that can help anyone live longer. Andrew is author of the book Ageless: The New Science of Getting Older Without Getting Old (https://amzn.to/3pAtIxx) Listen as he explains what you can do now and research currently underway that may result in treatments in our lifetime so we can all live even longer. Loneliness is a horrible feeling – especially around the holidays. Yet so many people report being more isolated and lonelier than ever before. Chronic loneliness is not only unpleasant, it is also bad for your health. Here with some good news about loneliness and ways to banish it from your life is psychiatrist Dr. Edward Hallowell. He is a leading expert on the topic of loneliness and has an important message everyone needs to hear. Dr. Hallowell is author of the book Connect (https://amzn.to/3GxgwQw). If you have ever felt the pain of loneliness, you will want to hear what he has to say. When was the last time you checked your tires? Now that colder weather is here, you need to.
