#148: Optimising Your Health in 2020 ~Tim Gray, Biohacker

Tim Gray, the UK’s leading Biohacker, a psychology specialist, and the founder of UK’s largest alternative health conference called The Health Optimisation Summit joins us to talk about optimising health in 2020.

This is timely topic. 2020 has put a finer point on preventive health in a way like never before. BUT, are people pulling away, in a self-sabotage kind of way from this concept, and is optimising around the edges low on people’s priorities right now?

It’s a true irony. People this year have got the wake up call of all wake up calls. You cannot expect robust health if you don’t commit to it. We are not invincible. Poor chronic lifestyle and diet habits catch up with us eventually.

However, for many, people seem less interested and committed to self-improvement and transformative health this year. For many of us, the Pandemic is all consuming – leading to life being on perma-pause to some degree. This pandemic has messed with a lot of heads and thrown this years health commitments into a spin.

That said, that is not the rule. According to Tim, this year seems to have amplified peoples health status. If you were informed, had momentum and expressed a growth mindset, then those folk have grown disproportionately this year. If you were without direction and not sure what good heath is, then for those things may have gotten worse.

Irrespective, change can happen in an instant. You just need to know wha the big rocks are, decide to shift to health, and start to the ball rolling with your first action.
