    How to Stop Overthinking at Night: A Hypnotherapist Explains What Actually Works

    Malminder Gill has been a hypnotherapist for over 16 years. She has worked in rehab centres around the world, written a book of therapeutic sleep stories, and built an entire practice from word of mouth alone. When it comes to overthinking and sleep, she speaks from personal experience: at 18, she suffered a year of insomnia following a car accident and found a solution in hypnotherapy.In this conversation, Méline sits down with Malminder to explore what hypnotherapy actually is, how the subconscious mind controls far more of your behaviour than you think, and why your brain is already entering trance states multiple times a day without you realising it. Malminder also reveals the one technique you can practise at home tonight to finally quiet a racing mind, and explains why the AI therapy chatbot she tried left her with more questions than answers.She explains:◼ Why your subconscious mind controls far more of your behaviour than you think◼ How scrolling Instagram puts your brain into the exact same state as clinical hypnotherapy◼ Why it is the emotion attached to a memory, not the memory itself, that keeps you stuck◼ The ethical grey area around using hypnotherapy to recover forgotten memories◼ Why AI therapy always validated her and why that is a serious problem◼ The room visualisation technique you can practise tonight to quiet a racing mind◼ Why bad memories make your life smaller and what hypnotherapy actually does about itYou can follow Malminder here:◼ Website:https://www.malmindergill.com◼ Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/malminder.gill/**This content is for informational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice.

    88% of People Who Think They Are Healthy Already Have Heart Disease. Here Is What to Do About It

    Bill Kapp is a former orthopaedic surgeon who built nine hospitals, founded Fountain Life alongside Peter Diamandis and Tony Robbins, voted the number one longevity centre in the world by the Buck Institute. He started Fountain Life because of one devastating realisation: the American healthcare system is designed to treat disease, not prevent it. And by the time most people find out they are sick, it is already too late.In this conversation, Bill reveals why 88% of Fountain Life members who consider themselves healthy already show signs of cardiac disease, why the United States spends $5.3 trillion on healthcare and still ranks 64th in longevity, and what his mother's death from stage four ovarian cancer taught him about the cost of waiting for symptoms. He also explains why early detection could lower healthcare costs by 70%, why GLP-1 drugs are the first true longevity medication, and the two things he says will do more for your long-term health than almost anything else.He explains:◼ How Fountain Life collects 240GB of data about your body and turns it into an action plan in under five minutes using AI◼ Why 60% of US bankruptcies are caused by medical debt and how preventive care fixes that◼ The 12 hallmarks of ageing and which ones you can actually change right now◼ Why GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic may be the first true class of longevity medication◼ Why women should be on hormone replacement for life, not just ten years◼ The two daily habits that protect your long-term health more than anything else: muscle mass and sleepYou can follow Bill and Fountain Life here:◼ Website:https://www.fountainlife.com◼ Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/fountainlife**This content is for informational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice.

    What Living Longer Actually Looks Like: Inside Madrid's Leading Longevity Clinic

    Madrid has the highest life expectancy in Europe, with people living to an average of 86 years old. But living longer is not the same as living better. So what does it actually take to add not just years to your life, but health to those years?In this episode, Méline visits Clinica Neleva, one of Madrid's leading longevity clinics, to put her own health to the test and find out. She sits down with founder and longevity doctorJavier Ramírez Sabau, who explains why the future of medicine is not about treating disease but preventing it before it ever takes hold. She also undergoes a full health assessment: biomarker testing, blood work, skin imaging, physical fitness tests and grip strength analysis, before leaving with a continuous glucose monitor to keep tracking long after the visit is over.Javier explains:◼ Why Madrid has the highest life expectancy in the European Union at 86 years old◼ The difference between lifespan and healthspan and why healthspan is everything◼ How biomarkers can predict cardiovascular disease, lung problems and cancer before symptoms appear◼ Why a positive attitude is more important for longevity than diet, sleep or exercise◼ Why Spanish people live longer: mindset, socialising, nutrition and a world class healthcare system◼ Why living in better health quality could naturally take you well above 1000:00 Intro0:33 Madrid: The City With the Highest Life Expectancy in Europe0:58 Inside Clinica Neleva: What They Actually Do Here1:04 The Two Pillars of Longevity Medicine: Prevention and Optimisation1:57 Méline's Health Assessment Begins: Biomarkers and Blood Work2:14 The Skin Imaging Machine That Reveals What Is Happening Beneath the Surface2:59 Physical Testing: Flexibility, Balance, Grip Strength and Fitness3:24 Why Knowing Your Biomarkers Is the Most Important Thing You Can Do3:56 The Number One Longevity Habit That Beats Diet, Sleep and Exercise4:09 Why Spanish People Live Longer Than Almost Everyone Else4:46 The Treatments That Actually Make a Difference to How Long You Live5:27 Leaving With a Continuous Glucose Monitor: The Testing Does Not Stop🔔 Subscribe to The HumanWare Project so you never miss an episode:https://www.youtube.com/@thehumanwareproject?sub_confirmation=1You can follow Clinica Neleva here:◼ Website:https://www.https://clinicaneleva.com/◼ Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/clinicaneleva/?hl=en-gb

    Peter Diamandis: How to Reverse Ageing and Live Longer Than You Think Is Possible

    Peter Diamandis is one of the world's leading voices on longevity, exponential technology, and the future of human health. He is the founder of XPRIZE, co-founder of Singularity University, and the founder of Fountain Life, an advanced health and longevity centre that collects 200GB of data about your body in a single day to find what conventional medicine misses entirely.In this conversation, Peter shares why medicine is about to undergo the most dramatic transformation in human history, why longevity escape velocity is coming by 2033, and why most people know more about what is happening inside their car than inside their own body. He also reveals the daily habits that keep him performing at the highest level and why optimism is itself a longevity tool backed by science.He explains:◼ Why the body is incredibly good at hiding disease until it is too late◼ How Fountain Life collects 200GB of data about your body in a single day◼ Why a bowhead whale living 200 years convinced him ageing was a solvable problem◼ Ray Kurzweil's prediction that longevity escape velocity will arrive by 2033◼ Why optimists live 15% longer according to a study in the National Academy of Sciences◼ The two most important days in your life according to Mark Twain and why purpose is everything◼ The simple daily habits he swears by: sleep, exercise and eliminating sugar0:00 Intro0:46 What Fountain Life Is and Why Peter Built It1:07 How Fountain Life Collects 200GB of Data About Your Body in One Day1:49 The Three Missions of Fountain Life: Evaluate, Optimise, Treat2:42 What Drives Peter Diamandis: Purpose as a Longevity Tool3:03 Why Medicine Is About to Undergo Its Greatest Transformation3:52 The Bowhead Whale That Changed How He Thinks About Ageing4:33 Ray Kurzweil and Longevity Escape Velocity by 20335:00 Why This Is the Biggest Business Opportunity on the Planet5:29 The One Health Habit He Swears By Every Single Day5:46 Why Optimists Live 15% Longer: The Science Behind Mindset6:07 How to Find Your Purpose and Set Your Moonshot🔔 Subscribe to The HumanWare Project so you never miss an episode:https://www.youtube.com/@thehumanwareproject?sub_confirmation=1You can follow Peter here:◼ Website:https://www.diamandis.com◼ Fountain Life:https://www.fountainlife.com◼ Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/peterdiamandis

    Nobel Laureate Robert Lefkowitz: Intuition, Loss and the Discovery That Changed Modern Medicine

    Professor Robert Lefkowitz is a Nobel Prize-winning scientist whose discovery of G protein-coupled receptors underpins more than 700 of the drugs in use today, including beta blockers, antihistamines, antidepressants and GLP-1 medications like Ozempic.
