Join doctor Eldrick Taylor here today and every Wednesday at nine am Eastern Time on W FOURHC Radio at W FOURHC dot com as together we discover the secrets to better health through science and spirituality. A better life with Ageless Blueprint starts now.

0:58 Here's your host, Doctor Eldred Taylor. Hello, Good morning, Good Wednesday to you. I am doctor Taylor, the hormone Doctor and the spiritual MD, and I'm so happy to be here today. And what I want to talk about today is that, you know, last week we talked about how you can increase your TEILOMEWS, which is really talking about how you can increase longevity, how you can stay healthy and happy for a longer period of time. And because I think that's so important, I want to just go back over it again because the that's really what the Ageless Blueprint is all about, is how can you stay ageless? How can you not succumb to old age?

1:47 And I think that's different than you know, just living longer. We don't want to live longer and be in poor health for you know, the last ten to fifteen years of our life. You know, my goal is is that I stay healthy, productive, a active part of my community, my family, and I think that's what most people want. And I just want to help guide you to see if there are some things you can do to make that become more of a reality, because what I have learned is that you shape your reality more than your circumstances. So you have to take an active part in what your future reality is going to be. And there's steps you can take. And you know, the way I structured my Acist Blueprint school is that first we start off with hermones, and hormones are so important. That's why we wrote the book Are your Hormones Making You Sick? And then the second book we wrote was The Stress Connection.

2:46 And I think that second book is more important than the first one is that and that's part of the hermones. So when we look at hormones, we look at female and male hormones, and we look at cortisol. Because stress, what I've learned is stress disrupts everything. It disrupts your hormones, it disrupts your gut, it disrupts your brain. So it's so important that I want to do a second podcast on it. I may do a third or fourth because ninety percent of the visits to a primary ninety percent of the time when you go to a doctor, you are going for a stress related complaint or disorder. And that's from a study twenty thirty years ago. Now it's probably ninety five ninety eight percent. So what I want to do is we can look at what we're going to do is we're going to look at this telomere trajectory quiz and I want to go through it so you can identify the stress. Because the first thing that's important is you want to identify the stress and if at all possible, get rid of the stress. The second thing is that if you can't get rid of the stress, change how you respond to the stress. And that's why I talk so much about meditation because that's one of the best ways to change how you respond to stress.

3:58 And then the third thing is re pair the damage caused by the stress. So if it's damaged your hardmonal balance, we want to repair it. If it's damaged your adrenal gland which makes quartersol, we want to repair it. If it's damage your gut, we want to repair it. And then we want to prepare you for future stress. So for right now, what I want to do is I'm gonna do this screen share and hopefully I can pull up the right thing. Let's see kind of find it here. This is going to be so easy to find. Listen, let me pull it up here and then I'll be able to see it. Can you see that ti LaMere effect?

4:43 If I share my whole screen, you should be able to do it share entire screen. That's probably the easiest way for me to do it. All right, now, can you see it? Can you see it? Rebel? Okay? All right, So let's start here. So we're going to take this quiz and I hope you you can score it. Okay, So you've got to calculate your score from one to four. Where in a one next to the statements that apply to you, and zero to the ones that don't apply. So, are you experiencing severe ongoing job stress? I always say, don't let a job kill you. This is another big stressor full time caregiver or a disabled family member. That's and sometimes we're you know, we're caught in between all of these. We may have sick children, we may have a severe job stress, we may be taking care of elderly parents. So all of these they are cumulative, and so you may be experiencing one, two, or three of those and they all add up. All right, Do you live in a dangerous neighborhood? Do you feel unsafe? And sometimes people feel unsafe in their own body, you know, they just have this anxiety, or or if you are in a neighborhood, or if you're in a family where you don't feel safe, that's all that is all affecting, All of that is affecting you. Are you experiencing extreme stress almost every day due to some chronic situation or recent traumatic event. And what I've learned is that you can make yourself well just by thought, and you can make yourself sick just by thoughts. So even if you're

6:14 thinking of an experience that you've had in the past. That's what we call post traumatic stress. Even if you're thinking about it, it can become a stress that can affect your health. All right. So if you score so this is this is the scoring, all right. So the higher the score, the better off you are. The lower you score, so if you score two or more, you're at high risk. So these are these tilmere points. All right. So let's go on UH mood disorders. Do you have a diagnosable condition like anxiety or depression? And if you if you have a diagnosed UH mood disorder like that, that is going to cause stress also because you're not going to respond appropriately to a situation. If you're chronically depressed, are or your have chronic anxiety, you over emphasize situations because of your moot disorder? All right, So how much social support do you have? Is there someone that can give you good advice? Is there someone you can count on to listen to you? Is there someone who shows you love and affection, because this can all of this can reverse all of those stressors that we talked about earlier.

7:24 Do you have someone you can talk over your problems with? Do you have much as much contact as you would like with someone who you feel close to. So how you know, how what is your social network? Do you have a strong social network. If you don't have a strong social network, get a dog. Your dog will always love you, you know. So that's why I say is man's best friend. So you need some kind of social support, whether it's church or community organization, you know, and the biggest social support is your spouse. And that's why it's so devastating, especially to men, when their spouse passes away after they've been married for a long time. They get this severe loneliness and it can lead to an early death.

8:07 You know. As I've said before, men need women and women don't necessarily need men to live longer. Okay, if you're a man and you're you're a widow, I would say that you need to go and try and reconnect with the woman because women are healthy for men. Healthy women are healthy for men. That's what I should say. Is that a better way to say it? Rebeled that if you're a healthy woman is good for a healthy man. I believe you don't. Yeah, you don't want an unhealthy woman. You know that women can be well let me be quiet, let me stop talking before I get myself in trouble. All right, So you want social support. How much physical activity do you do? So I did not do much physical activity.

8:50 You do once or twice a week, about three times a week are almost daily, you know. And you don't want to over you don't want to over exercise. Just some movement. We're going to talk about that. Just some movement will help you, you know. I have. I've started maybe eight nine months ago, going back to the gym because I had a goal that I wanted to keep my body fit. Even though I'm sixty five. I see these images of these people my age and they're fit. I see them at the gym, So it encourages me that you don't have to your body doesn't have to deteriorate just because you're getting older and you start off slow. You build yourself up and even just walking doing some kind of movement, even if sheigong or tai chi, they've been doing those for thousands and thousands of years, and that is to keep their physical ability, because when you lose your mobility, you lose a lot of joy in life.

9:48 You know. I like to travel, and I see that when you travel, especially in these foreign countries. When we went to Egypt, you have to be limbered to go into those caves and to those temples and all that. You have to be mobile, So you want to do whatever you can to maintain your mobility. All right, sleep patterns, and that is what I've been working on. And I always say, you cannot manage what you cannot measure. So that's why we do cortisol testing and heart rate variability. We try and measure stress so we can manage it. I measure my sleep patterns and that is very very important. Now, I'll tell you they say you should get six to eight hours of sleep. My goal is to get more than six hours, because that's just kind of how I'm built.

10:37 If I get six six and a half hours and I look at my sleep monitor and I get enough rim sleep, ourm sleep, and deep sleep, then I'm happy. But I am focused on that because I haven't been good at that in the past. And next week I'm going to talk about Right now, I'm just talking about things that you can do and it really doesn't collst you anything. It's just lifestyle changes. But next week we're going to go to the next step. We're going to talk about how epigenetics can show you what's aging you. More quickly, I'm going to do some of I'm going to show you some of my biohacking monitors that I have, which I think are very important because I like data. You know. I got interested in harmone replacement, biodonkal hartmone replacement once I could measure it in saliva, and then I had data that I could go on that worked.

11:25 I started being interested in stress when I learned how to measure saliva. I mean, corta is all in saliva and look at heart rate variability. Now I had data. When we're going to talk about peptats, I do epigenetic testing so I can know what peptats to focus on. All right, So with sleep, there's certain things you can do to help you with sleep. I talk about some of those in the school Age's Blueprint school. But there's things you can do to get data. We talk about r rings. I want to introduce you to something called HUME, which is which I think is great. I may do a whole podcast on that, but I think you need these measurement gadgets because you even if you're talking about longevity.

12:07 This human biopad that I'm going to talk about. It helps you to measure longevity day by day so that you can know what are you doing every day that's either they're increasing or decreasing your longevity. So anyway, so I measure my sleep. I think that's very important. You want to get six to eight hours of sleep, and you want to be good quality sleep. You want to be deep sleep. You want to be rim sleep. That's when you actively dream and your subconscious is open. All right, what are your nutritional habits? Are you eating good fats like avocados and seaweed and fish that can train contains omega three oils like salmon. Please stay off of the sugar sodas. You just don't know how much sugar is in those sodas. You want to stay off of those process meat. All of that is bad. Now, I will tell you I am really planting. I don't eat meat anymore.

13:03 It helps me to maintain my weight. I don't feel sleepy and tired after I eat. I would encourage you don't have to go totally plant based, but try and limit the amount of meat you eat. And if you eat the meat, let it not be processed. Go to your local farmer's market, get grass fed beef without any antibiotics or anything like that. So you want to avoid processed meats at all costs. Now, another thing I want to tell you, you want to avoid barbecue meats. So the char that's on that barbecue is really carcinogenic. It has nitrites in it. And so you know, you want to cook your meat properly if you're going to eat the meat. And I know barbecue. I live in the South.

13:46 I know it's a big deal. But just be wary of that. You know, if you're going to do it, do it in moderation. Don't let meat always be a part of your meal. Try and go at least one meal without having meat, and eventually you'll do two, and then you may do it where you only eat me two or three times a week. But I think that's very important. And how much whole grain, whole whole where the whole foods? I guess you should say it. Are you eating, are you eating vegetables? Are you eating unprocessed meats? How much fruits and vegetables are you getting your five servings a day? You know? So I know that's hard to do. But Hey, like I said in the morning, I eat my keene wire put blueberries, I put raspberries in it. I may put a banana in it. Then I tried to eat something that's plant based for lunch and also for dinner. But anyway, let's keep going. Let me see what is the last one? Oh, we did we did sleep, we did stress, we did movement, we did social connection, and then we did food. All right, So that's it. So I think we didn't we If not, I will have this as an attachment to this podcast.

15:00 Did we do it last time? This? Yeah? I know we had an attachment last time. Yeah, So let me I just want to show you guys that I practice what I preach. Okay, so can we do this video? Can we do this video? Rebel? You see it at the end. I'm on my walk. I did number one. I did my meditation to relieve my stress. I slept six and a half hours last night, and then my meditation it said my brain was at an optimal level. So while I'm walking, I'm learning. You always want to expand your mind. So I've done my stress relief, I've done my sleep, I'm doing my exercise. I'm learning I'm also going to the gym today. I'll go back, I'll eat my plant based breakfast, and then I will have a social connection with my family and maybe with anybody else I meet today. All right, that's it. This is day two and my challenge. Let's see what and where you are in your challenge. All right, So I started a thirty they challenge in my school group. I put it on substack. I'm gonna put it on Instagram.

16:06 It's just you know, having information and not using it or not following it is totally worthless. Okay. So if if you're listening to this, if you want to make these life childs lifestyle changes, I just encourage you to do it. You know, do one of them. You know, look at your sleep pattern and I think we're going to talk about that. Next is just try to make a few little changes. Like one week, say okay, I'm gonna walk for ten minutes and that's it. You know, the next week, say well, how can I have a plant based, plant based breakfast? You know, maybe oatmeal with some food or whatever. You know, the next time you say, hey, look I'm going to walk and I'm gonna meditate or I'm gonna you know, enjoy nature. Sometimes you can you know, like I say, you combine it all at once. I walk, I I'm listening, I'm learning something while i'm while I'm walking.

16:59 To expand my man, man, you can do walking meditations. That's what I learned with Joe Despenzo. We would do a thirty minute walking meditation. So there's a way when you say, hell, I'm busy, I don't know if I have ten minutes of time, Well, you can try and combine two or three of these at once. You can meditate while you're eating. Okay, so we talk about we talked about mindful eating, and we're going to go through a list of what you can do during a day to try and change your longevity habits. Okay, so how much time we got, So now let's go to the slides. This is going to be quick. We're going to talk about how can you what changes can you make if your trajectory is not the trajectory that you want. These are some things that you can do to try and change your trajectory. So to teel a mere effect. Part two the quiz that reveals your cellular aging path. So last time we looked at five critical lifestyle habits that directly impact Tailor mill Lenk. Now this is not just some foodful thing. This this lady won a Nobel Prize for the tilamere effect. Discovering tilamere is how they're affected, how you can lengthen them, and you want to know what trajectory you're on. So when you look at the trajectory, you can go this way, but you can change your trajectory slowly, and now we can try and decrease aging.

18:20 So that's what we're that's what we're doing. We're trying to change the trajectory of our life. And it's never too late to do that. Okay, So it has a scientific foundation. Elizabeth Blackburn and Elissa Appel is a comprehensive assessment tool that evaluate six critical lifestyle domains that directly influence tila mere health. And whenever I say tilamere is longevity, all right. The quiz represents decades of research into silar mechanisms of aging. And when you break it all down, it's all about to sell. There's something that's called as within so without so what you do for every little cell is actually affecting your whole body. So that's why we talk about cellular aging because that microcosm of a cell actually reflects your whole entire body and health. All right, So we have stress management and emotional resilience. We have mood regulation and mental health, sleep quality and recovery patterns, dietary choices and nutritional habits, exercise frequency and movement patterns, and social support and relationship quality. So it isn't a medical diagnosticists. It's a powerful lifestyle mapping tool that helps you identify which daily habits are either protecting your tilomeres or putting them at risk. And the quiz predicts whether your tilomeres are a protective or detective trajectory that supports longevity or a risky path that accelerates cellular aging. So again we want to change what If you're on a good trajectory, keep on going, and next week we'll talk

19:52 about other things you can do to even intensify that trajectory where we can make you age even less, are at even slower pace. All right. I always talk about stress and emotional health. You know, that is my big thing, and I constantly apologize that I talked about the stress connection, but we didn't talk enough about the stress disconnection. And so these high risk factors that you have that can cause you significant stress are chronic caregiving. And I can tell you how many patients I see who are in this kind of band where they have parents who are seventy eighty ninety years old, and they also have children who are in their teens and twenties and thirties. So you're taking care of them, trying to make sure that they go to the right school and that they're set up and they get a good job and they're able to sustain themselves, which is harder and harder for young people to do. It's more and more young people who are having to depend on their parents longer and longer because of the economy. You know what, I could buy a house after finishing my residency. You can't do that anymore.

21:04 And even doctors who are in so much, so much debt coming out of school and then having to try and start a practice or join a practice or whatever anyway, so you have this where you're trying to take care of your kids and you're trying to take care of your parents, and that is a very stressful situation. Unsafe environments, you know, living in a place where you don't feel safe, whether it's an unsafe neighborhood, are an unsafe family, or social you know you're in an abusive relationship. You're a child, and you are living in an abusive family where your parents are either mentally or physically or abusing you. That is high stress and that childhood stress that can linger for decades and a lot of the emotional problems that people are having as an adult all stem from those unsafe environments when you are a child, And remember you're you're in a hypnotic state for the for your brain ways in this stata hypnotic state wherever you that whatever you see as a child in your first six to seven years, you think that's how life is. So if you live in an abusive family, you think that's the way the life is. And even unconsciously, you will recreate that same situation in your own life if you don't understand that subconscious drive that's pointing you in that direction, that points you toward an abusive relationship, and you're doing it unconsciously. So professional burnout that's what we have to

22:37 worry about. And I've been through that. I've been through professional burnout where I was on stage I was speaking to a large group of doctors. That was an annual meeting that I went to, and my slides were up there and I was I went totally blank. The people that thought I had a stroke, that I had a tia stroke because my mind just me And that's because I had been in my practice. I took a flight out to Las Vegas. I spoke that morning and my mind went blank. And for six months I had to recover from that professional burnout, and I have dedicated myself to not do that again. Okay, so and then post traumatic stress. So let's let's move on, all right, Protective practices, meditation and mindfulness. I can't stress enough how important meditation is.

23:30 I just can't stress it enough. I found it late in life, but I want you to start as early as possible. That is how you respond to stress. You meditate, You quiet your mind, and you will find that that stress becomes manageable if you if you can change how you respond to it. And I will tell you that muse headband has taught me how to meditate. Where I can do it with the headband on, I can do it without it. Is that I can make my mind go quiet even though there's chaos all around me. So breath work and stress reduction, journaling and emotional processing, and that's what I'm talking about, is trying to process some of those emotions that you inherited from your childhood and you want to build psychological resistance. That's what meditation does.

24:19 It allows you to stay calm, your mind, to stay calm so you can think so that you don't go into this reactive, instinctive type fight or flight response to everything. You can quiet yourself down, you can think coherently, and you can respond to people and not react in an habitual manner. Reacting to your spouse or to your children, or to your coworkers in a way that you know is going to bring conflict, but you do it because it's a reaction. If you can slow your man down, you can respond to them appropriately so it doesn't lead to further conflict. All Right, Sleep and recovery, I'll tell you that's my big thing that I'm working on. I'll be honest with you. Probably a year ago, when I wasn't focused on this, my sleep patterns were awful. I had a monitor and my sleep but my sleep scores were awful. I didn't know what to do about it.

25:14 But I started meditating to start doing these other things, these hacking things that I'm gonna tell you about. And I am a firm believer that nothing gets better if you don't sleep. You can take all the supplements you want, you can do all the ivs, you do whatever you want, but if you don't sleep, none of that gets incorporated cellularly to build those cells and those individual cells or what makes you. So you have to worry about cellular health. And that's what happens during sleep. You repair yourself, you regenerate yourself, You get rid of old dying cells, so new sales can be expressed. You have to sleep. So whatever you need to do to sleep, whatever you need to do to sleep other than sleep peels. We want to get you off the sleeping pills because that's not natural. Sleep, other things, and we'll show you some things that you can do to help you to sleep. So sleep represents a critical window when your sales performing central repair and maintenance function. The quiz specifically evaluates both sleep quantity and quality.

26:16 And you know a lot. You can do it with your Apple Watch, you can do it with the R ring. I'm going to show you this hum band. There's all kinds of things, but you want to focus on your sleep and your sleep quality. You want to establish consistent sleep schedules, creating optimal sleep environments. You want a cool dark room. I started wearing an eye patch. You want seven to nine hours again, If I get six and a half, I'm happy. And you to shift your telemet trajectory from risky to protective. Sleep isn't just rest, it's active cellular restoration exercise. We want to do some kind of exercise. I know in the Apple Watch, you'll tell you to stand up after ninety minutes. It doesn't have to be crazy exercise. And you don't want to over exercise because that is actually a stress. So you want to do it moderately. And it's always good to have a walk, you know, a walk. It kind of serves two purposes. It gives you exercise and when you're out in nature, stop and smell the roses. Okay, look at the trees and the structure of the trees, and how the pattern of the trees and the different trees. You know, if you're not living where there's a lot of uh, you know, greenery, I live in a place where it's a lot of greenery. So I just look and you just see the beauty of nature. If you live downtown in the high rise, walk around the building and look at the beauty of man's creation. You know how they can build these buildings in these tight places, and you know, just be grateful wherever you are. So exercise is a part of expressing gratitude also, and that's a powerful emotion.

27:51 You want to talk about how to relieve stress, Start being grateful. Start being grateful for your negative experiences and your positive experiences, because your negative experiences actually lead you to change. Okay, just think about it. Some of your worst experiences made you make a change. Okay, even the death of a spouse. I'll tell you my parents last few years of their life, and when they passed away, it made me make a change to start practicing more functional medicine. How can I help myself function better for a longer period of time and I don't begin to waste away, you know, ten years before I actually pass away.

28:37 So even though that was an awful time in my life, it made me make a change. So I'm not grateful that my parents. I'm grateful that my parents lived and they were an example for me, but they also helped me to change my focus on health. All right, so let me see, we got one we talked about nutrition to that. I think it's break time, so this is a good time to break and I'll be back. Well, fantasy slats and then we're just going to go through a day in the life of a person who's changing the trajectory. We're going to look at the old and the new. We're going to fintasy slats, and then we're going to look at how you can change your whole day that it's focused on changing the trajectory of your teelor mere life for your longevity. All right, So let's go to break.

29:24 We are going to a quick break, So stay with us as we explore the Ageless Blueprint right here on W FOURHC Radio and Talk for TV, an ancient secret with a modern twist for better health and vitality.

Let's join doctor Taylor for more insights and research on the ancient secret to better health and a better life in modern times. Here's your host, doctor Eldred Taylor.

30:35 All right, so now we want to talk about nutritions. I told you about those bad process foods. So you know, I know everybody like hot dogs and they like hamburg is on the grill. And I'm not trying to take away all of your fun, you guys, Okay, you can have you can have fun, but just realize what is doing to you. Okay, So these are protected. So here are the risky foods. Process foods, sugary beverages, refine, carbohydrates, and inflammatory oils like vegetable oils. Those are inflammatory oils. You actually want to have non inflammatory oils like avocado oil, olive oil, coconut oil. Those are non inflammatory oils that you can use. You want to have protective foods like colorful vegetables. I started a garden three or four years ago.

31:25 And you want to talk about how you can change or respond to stress, is start a garden and you start to eat fresh foods and fruits and vegetables, and you start to see the beauty of nature, and you see how nature provides abundance, and people want abundance in their lives, and nature naturally is abundant. I can't eat all. I just have a little little garden. I have like ten different things on it, and it makes so much I can't even eat it. All I have to get of it away are at rots. So start a garden and it will. It changes your attitude. Really when I go out there. I went out there this morning before the podcast, and I have some eggplant and some bell peppers.

32:10 I have Halopenia peppers out there. So starter garden is not that hard. I use this square foot garden where you plant something in this square foot and so you can do a lot in just a small space. So that's just just just a suggestion, and then that provides direct programming of Teler mills maintenance and cellular aging process. So the quiz evaluates your ratio of whole foods versus process options, with particular attention to sugar intake from beverages and snacks. Your dietary choice is literally programmed your telomeres for protection are destruction. Diets high in processed food, sugar, and inflammatory ingredients consistently correlate with accelerated TELA MI short. So I'll tell you stress is important, sleep is important, and your diet is important. If you can just make a change to one of those this week and then you say, okay, I'm going to do that, then you move on. But those are so so so important, and then we can go to the exercise and the social connection.

33:08 But I would tell you the top three is the stress, the sleep, and the food. And then you know, the exercise is great, it's all important, but these three are like they are. These don't have any objections. You gotta these things you have to do. Is no down side from these. Yeah, you can over exercise, you can do all that, but these are the these are the foundations. It's the sleep, stress, and diet. So we talked about the social connections that is important. I told you, especially in men, men need companionship. Okay, women, you know, like I said, women, they can be widowers for twenty thirty years a man. If they don't, if their spouse dies, they are at a very high risk for depth. If they've been there for over twenty well, I say over thirty forty years and their spouse as they are at high risk that they will die in the next year if they don't have strong social support from the children or from another woman are somewhere. So these social support relationships are very important. So you want to score your quiz.

34:16 You want to see where your where, your where your trajectory is the worst and change that first. Okay, if it's if it's your diet, then that's what you want to focus on first. If that's where your main h negative score is, then focus on that first. And then just look and see where you're doing well and be be happy, be proud and say, hey, look I've been doing this right, I'm going to keep doing it. This is giving me positive reinforcement. So you know what is positive for you, and you know what is negative for you, and you want to try and and enhance the ones that you're doing well, and you want to try and slowly make a change to those bad habits that you have so we won't go through this case. So and again, identify a priority area, select your single lowes score. So try and make that change first. That's damaging your teel ameres the most. You want to implement something daily, whether it's daily walk, I'm going to do that, or it's a daily what I'm going to eat for breakfast, or I'm going to change what I eat for lunch, change what I eat for dinner, and just make that change.

35:23 Don't try and do it all at one time, because you're not you're going to fail. You want to just you want to have those little little victories that stack up on each other and those little victories become big victories. But you got to start off somewhere, and you always want to measure. To say again, you cannot manage what you cannot measure, and what you focus on and what you track that is what will change. If you track your progress. That's why I have all of these little gadgets that I'll show you next week, is they track my progress. Am I doing the right things? And if I'm if I'm getting off schedule, how do I get back on schedule? And then you reassess your results. You can go back and take the quiz again and say, oh wow, I score it here, I scored it at this point this time. Now I'm here, so so good.

36:10 So that's your action plan, all right, All right, now you're telemetrate, so your results aren't destiny. Your quiz scores, its feedback, not a fixed fate. Every lifestyle change creates new cellular possibilities. And remember what you do for your sales, you're doing for yourself. Okay, we'll get into this a little bit later. But when you look in at metaphysically and all of this stuff, every cell has the same functions as you do. Your cells respire, they need oxygen. Your sales need energy, so you give them nutrition. Your cells have and elimination. They detoxify themselves. So whatever you're doing for yourself as a whole, you're doing it for each cell. And that is where the aging takes place cellularly, all right, So you want to amplify results advanced tools like meditation, light therapy. We're going to talk about light therapy next week. And hormone optimization can accelerate sular protection gains.

37:09 And in aces blueprint, we go from we look at hormones, then we start to look at deeper things like epigenetics, look at your gut, look at how we can use energy to change to change your your biology. And then we go from there. So then community community support. If you don't have support, join Ace's Blueprint. That's what that community is for. Is that every day I give you a Age's Tip of the day. I have classes in there. I have hormone clarity course, we have the five the five Pillars for ages living. Then we have a mindset mastery course, which is I think is the most important.

37:51 Probably by next week, I'm going to have a Beginner's Guide to peptize. I am actively learning and and implementing peptads into my practice, and I'm going to implement it into my Aceless blueprint. I think that is a key to longevity, is to finding out what is aging you the fastest, and you use peptads and other supplements to make sure that you slow down the aging of that particular system that seems to be most out of balance. And we can do that with epigenetic testing and other testing. All right, So I invite you to join the Ace's Blueprint Community's that's the community support for you is www dot school dot com. Forts last Ageless. You can go to all my links dot com and forts last eb Taylor MBA is scrolling right there. All of my links are there, even to some of the gadgets that I've been talking about. You can click on those you can learn more about that. So I put all of my links in one place. So for the last ten minutes, let's go to that. The other thing I have prepared, I mean, yeah, that one, all right, So let me make it where I can see it. It's the blueprint thing is kind of in the way. Is there any way to move that around so I can see the top of it? I guess I can look at it on my own. Oh there we go. Great, all right, So this is how we can reorganize your whole day.

39:19 All right. So when you wake up, don't wake up expecting stress. Okay, don't wake up saying, oh, I know this is going to happen. That is going to happen. That's another thing that I've learned. Everything that you are doing right now is a culmination of your past. The reason why you wake up feeling stressed is from something that happened in your past, and now you're predicting it for the future. And when you do that, it's a self fulfilling prophecy. So if you wake up thinking that you're going to have a stressful day, that is exactly what is going to happen. Okay, So you got to wake up in a different frame of mind. Reappraise your stress response. Wake up, just say hey, at least I'm alive to deal with the stress, okay. Set an attention for the day, look forward to any positive aspects. Just say, wow, I know the sun is going to rise today, all right, so at least I'm seeing another day dawning. And each day is a chance for you to have a new experience.

40:23 But you have to have new thoughts to have a new experience, all right, that's part of my mindset mastery. All right, early morning, you don't want to regret that there's no time for exercise. You can just do a five minute walk around your house. My mother used to do that. She used to walk around the house for ten minutes because if it was cold outside, she would always it didn't matter if it was cold or hot or whatever, she just walked. So there's always time. Again, you can park further from wherever you're going to go to the grocery store or whatever. Is that that's more, that's a walk. You're increasing your activity for breakfast instead of eating a sausage and bagel, which is processed meat, and then it's a simple carb. Eat oatmeal with fruit, eat it fruit smoothie and yogurt. You can use it.

41:10 Eat a vegetable omelet. All right, Try to take meat out of at least one meal a day in the morning. Don't rush and have hostile thoughts and think about road rage. Take three minute breathing break just even before you guys house if you're rushing. I I have started the mantra is that I have all the time in the world. Okay, I had to do something this morning. I was wondering if I had enough time before my podcast, and I stopped and I said, I have all the time in the world. I had to take something to my daughter this morning. She had left a license in my house at a house. I said, I'll go over there, and I said it's gonna take me thirty minutes. It took me exactly thirty minutes I got back here. Just change your change your thinking. I have time. I have time, and you'll see that it seems like time slows down for you. It's all how you perceive. So when you arrive at work, you don't want to play catch up from the moment you arrive, you know, give yourself a ten minute window to try and change your mindset. Okay, I'm going from my home life, I'm going to my work life. Let me let me change my thinking. Let me settle into where I am now and be present.

42:18 That's what we talk about with meditation, being present, saying who am I, where am I, and what am I doing? I talk a lot about that in my mindset. Mastery is that be present where you are. Don't be at work and carry the argument that you had with your wife or your kids and bring it to work. And now that just extends your misery and then you're going to have a problem at work, and then you're going to bring that problem at work home. So just be present where you are, and when you're somewhere else, you be present there. So for lunch, instead of eating fast food and deli meats with your process, take something to lunch. You make your own lunch. Practice mindful eating and I'm bad.

43:00 This is when you're eating, think about what you're eating, think about how that is going to nourish you. How it's going to feed your cells. It may sound silly, but that's being present. So you don't want to eat and be working at the same time. Take that break and let your digestive system work. Believe me, you know. That's why if you go to a fine restaurant, what happens there The lighting is low and the music is soft. That is trying to stimulate your parasympathetic nervous system, which is your rest and digest system. So these restaurant tours, they know what mood you should be in to eat, Okay, so that's why they said it like that. Now in a fast food restaurant is bright lights, it's screaming Hamburger, hamburg amber because in that state, it's a stressful state and it's only matching your state, all right. So at a fast food place is rush rush resta because that's the state you're in when you go there. But then when you go to a nice restaurant, you want a soothing state, and so they set the mood for you.

44:06 So yeah, these restaurant tours, these business people, marketers, they know this psychology. You need to know it so you can implement it. Into your daily life, and not just when you go to a nice restaurant and spend two hundred bucks. Okay, So in the afternoon, give into instead of giving into cravings for sugar drinks or candy or baked goods. You know you can have a telomere friendly snack, eat some nuts, eat some eat a fruit, eat some colorful fruit, or a have a salad. You know you're going to have that or small salad in the afternoon. So in the evening, don't ruminate about how bad work is and how you hate your balls and how your wife doesn't understand you. Don't ruminate like that. Mentally distance yourself.

44:52 Like you said, you're not at work anymore. You're not in that stressful situation anymore. Be present where you are. I'll tell you that's something that I had to work on in my career. When I was doing ob and I was running here and there and trying to deliver babies and do all this other stuff, I would not be present at home. And my wife realized that, my kids realized that, and I had to make a change. And that's one of the reasons why I stopped doing OBGYN, because it was it was affecting too much of my life, and I was really I was getting too old to wake up at two o'clock in the morning. But part of it is that I couldn't be present where I needed to be present. And then for dinner, have a whole food dinner. And again, you know, maybe that's where you eliminate me. Do you eliminate me at dinner or breakfast or lunch, but you want to start somewhere, but you want to have a nice whole food's dinner. Now, I actually, and I'm not I don't get any money for this. I use Marley Spoon and they have a vegetarian where they where they send you the food and you actually have to prepare it. And for me, I like to cook and prepare it. It actually calms me down.

46:01 But it also expands my diet because they bring me food that I normally wouldn't buy. And it's opened my mind up to different types of food. So if you, you know, are having trouble trying to figure out what to do, do one of these food services, and Marley Spoon is by Martha Stewart and it's very tasty. All of my meals are plant based, so look at a There's a million of these different companies, so just pick one and it may help you to change your nutritional habits and in the evening run through your evening activities and chorices without a break. Don't do that, okay. You want to have a stress reducing technique, you know, listen to some music. You can listen to a funny show. Comedy and laughter is very relaxing and it's very nourishing for yourselves. So look at something funny, you know, do something like that, and then have a routine that calms you down. So I use red light therapy. I have a meditation that I do at night. So you want to have a routine where it takes you away from this this external world and lets you calm down and calm down your inner world so you can have a good night's sleep so that you can wake up the next day with a new attitude. So, uh, I think that's just about it, right, Rebel, We're almost done, okay, So I don't know if we had any questions.

47:22 Uh, we we have one group of questions, okay, and it's going to take a moment. But if you work, if you work in a stressful environment, say a hospice. Oh man, that situation. I knew it was a big question, so I didn't want to hit you with it. Yeah, you know, Hey, this is all I can say. God bless hospice nurses because I don't know if I could. One reason why I did did o B because I didn't want to. I didn't want to do oncology. I didn't want to deal with patients dying on me. Okay, So all I can tell you to do is when you're there, be present there, and when you're gone, you have to leave that behind. And that's easier said than done.

48:09 I would tell you meditation would help you, so you could come home and meditate and you could free your manda of that. But I tell you I have some patiences who are hospice nurses, and you have to be a special kind of person. But I believe that God made people who could deal with that, and if you're one of those people, God bless you. But I would do all these other things that I'm suggesting to make sure that it doesn't aid you prematurely, because if it's all about perception, I would perceive that as a stress. If she perceives it as not being a stress, it's not going to affect her if she feels like she's being of service to those people and she has a positive attitude about it. I don't think it will affect her like it would affect me, because my perception is different from hers when it comes to death and dying.

48:57 So that would be my answer to that. We thank everyone for asking you guys, that's your answer. Yeah, good time, and tune in next week. We're gonna keep spending so this is kind of the cheap stuff, and so now we're gonna talk about some things you might have to invest in to help with that, so to help monitor you. So but these things are things that you can do just as a part of life. It doesn't really cost you anything. But then there's some other things with some biohacking things we can do to help accelerate that, and we'll talk about that next next week. Okay, thanks for joining Doctor Taylor today.
