Improve Your Problem Solving

As we move into 2025, let's really improve our ability to solve problems, new and old. When we allow our minds to relax and calm down, we move into theta brain wave mode. To do this, we need to find spaces where we let our senses soak up the environment and over time we will notice that our mind will find those solutions to those problems.
Live In The Moment
Переглядів 716 годин тому
Be present. Live in the moment. Let's all put our phone down and really take in our environment and our surroundings. Instead of recording that concert we're at with our phones or taking the 100th photograph of the scenery, let's just take a moment with our senses and our loved ones to be in the present.
Meditation And Walking
Переглядів 11День тому
Our lives are full of stress, both mental and physical. All the science shows that meditation is a great antidote to that. I encourage all of us to find a little bit of time each day and go for that walk. Do the walking meditation to help alleviate our daily stresses. Walking is also great for our cardiovascular health.

How Ice Baths Benefit Your Health
I've always enjoyed "forest bathing*, done it before it came popular.
Its so helpful. Thanks Steve. Keep it up!
Strange that we need to be told too, get off the phones and have fun, true fun!! It is needed to stay healthy.
Is this man a comedian
Yes, it will be an implant by then! Capitalism will never let that happen, trust me! Also, the tobacco companies still control lives. It's a good thought, but we are already past the point of change.
Electronic devices ARE addictive!
Great video, great tips!
I read that if your adrenals are not working properly or if you are worn out, intense workouts will hurt you instead of help you. Do you have any comments or advice on this with reagards to intense workouts?
@@Marie-JoseeCardinalStaff the concept of adrenal fatigue is not generally accepted in the research literature. However, if you are experiencing high levels of stress in your life overall, and you also try to do intense workouts that are physically and mentally demanding as well then it can lead to overwhelm and burnout. Best to do light activity when you’re experiencing a lot of stress in your life.
I own/read your books & appreciate the 1% tips!! Haven't read Power House yet, I'm looking forward to it!!
@@stevepye4920 Thanks Steve!
A $M video..! SO many take aways that can add value to my life.
Great conversation! I can definitely say that transitions in my life do get stressful, but once I move past the change, I can feel the growth in my life. So change is a necessity for development for sure!
Does it matter what time I sleep as long as I get 8 hours
to me it does you should be ideally sleeping around 9 to 11 pm if youve ever slept at like 5 am or 3 and still got your 8 or 9 hours of sleep you still feel like shit but if you sleep early and you wake up early you feel more refreshed
Neat
I once heard that HGH is released at 10 p.m. and someone who sleeps after 10 p.m. doesn't get any more HGH, so is that true?
No but the quantity is decrease of growth hormone
The science says sleep doesn't affect height.
Yeah idk, I feel like it’s a myth to get kids going to bed early 😅
It’s crazy to me how much I’ve lagged prioritizing my wife and kids. I now work hard to make up for the 9yrs I lagged and it’s super duper harder than it seems. I realize now it’s my life’s purpose to be the best leader I can be for my family. And that makes all the hard work worth it! Thank you for this!
You're welcome!

Love it....

Some might call it a powerhouse
What a dumb fucking clip
How do we get more energy? Mitochondria is the power house of the cell. Power=energy.
The mitochondrion is the powerhouse of the mindset
Compound Well Being ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I'm 50/50 on each. Lol not sure where that puts me
Please is sleep during day like from 12pm to 4pm is benefitual ? And it may release the GH hormone?
Brother no ,yes u will still get the hurmone but not that much , this is why there's something called"quality sleep"
🌸 'promo sm'
I don't get it
And you are...?
This is exactly why school needs to start later. Teenagers need their sleep, and we know they aren't going to go bed at 8pm.
I aint got time for sleep. This video just shows me that I can ignore sleeping AND become the president of the united states
Yup treasonous trump for sure. Severely embarrassing BDS, just had to make this political, MAGGAt 😭
@@CanadianBestcountry In not MAGA as Im not even from the US but funny you identified it as sleepy joe and got triggered. Its amazing how simple it is to trigger the sleepy joe fanboys
But it’s nice to turn over
How about just more animal based protein all day to lift brain fog, retain muscle, and just better overall health?
Hi Rick. As long as you're getting all your amino acids over time I don't believe that it matters if its animal or plant protein.
How about the ..premeditated.. nap😂.❤
The premeditated nap is always a good idea!!!!
Well, it's winter and most of us don't see the sun till 9.
Spring is coming Max!
Nice video!
I was watching this video for a school assignment and was expecting to not be interested but god this is actually so good. Like the things talked about just struck me. Made me think about things I did and took forgranted, Thank you Dr. Greg. This video was amazing.
SO glad this was fun for you!!! Even more so given your expectations were low!
Can i still grow at 16 years and 5 months old, i slept for 4,5 hours when i was 14, 15 and now im sleeping well, my mother is 166 and father 177, im 178 would i be taller if i used to sleep well, my brother is same height as me, and 2nd brother is taller than us for 5 cm
i’m not an expert but il give u an answer based on what i know. for a boy the usually age you stop growing is 15-17 (ik they say like 18-21 on the internet but maybe after 15-17 youl grow a tiny little bit) i’d say if your that height st that age then there’s a little chance youl hit another growth spurt but considering you already passed your parents i’d say naturally you could grow another 2-5 cm.
Hey I am a shorter than my dad I think he is 5,11 taller then my mom 5,2 to 5,4 used to sleep from 2 to 12 on summer vacations or weekends and 12 to 7 on school days since 15 to 17.5 I have half a year left and I am 5,9 and a half is there a chance I can reach 5,10.I have changed my sleep pattern to 11pm to 9am
It's been 1 year give me an update about you're height
Can’t wait Gregg, very exciting! Thanks again so much for coming onto my podcast, best wishes, Mike
Thanks Mike! Always happy to support you and your work!
grateful for this video
How beneficial is downhill sprinting for sprinters? I always do uphill but I’m now catching on to downhill. Small hills or steep hills for sprinting?
Hi Taaj. Downhill sprinting can certainly help sprinters. Small hills and very gentle grades are best. Start very slowly and gently snd slowly build your ability.
You're best
I read your book in 30 mins the worst book I have ever read, you have no idea what your talking about what so ever, your book consists of none other than negativity and you constantly correlate with illness, further you think your funny your not additionally your not relatable to most people. You end to understand heart and head coherence. Stop writing and speaking. Your doing a disservice to humanity. Further your not a neurologist don't talk about the brain.
Thank you Dr. Greg... I have lately been having a terrible sleeping disorder due to stress. I’ll share for others to watch and learn🙏
👊
I'm bored. Say Aye if you came here because of school.
downhill running isn't a real option. If you run with proper form you will accelerate up to speeds you can't control. I did a sprint up to ~24mph (11m/s) even with a little decline of 1-2°. The consequence was a hip/groin injury wich last a year! But most poeple can't or won't run downhill correctly. They would be braking hard with every ground contact and never reach high speeds. The constant high breaking forces (~3-4 times bodyweight) does your body no good.
Sure it does uf you do it gradualky
Amazing talk.
Thanks Ray!
Good morning sir, kindly give me best examples for assisted sprint training... Jogi

Fascinating that at this point (almost two years after publishing), there are only 1196 views and 32 likes (including my own) on a talk which is both extremely well delivered and impacts the simple yet fundamental practices which contribute to living a full and rewarding life. Yet over at the Kardashians trillions of views and likes. At the risk of appearing painfully obvious, the world is f**cked. Thank you Dr. Wells. This is and will continue to be the important work.
Thanks Phil. Fortunately there is more to my work than likes and views but I feel your pain and thank you for your kind words!
My first time listening to Dr . Wells. Thank you for this .
