Rethinking Positive Thinking: Inside The New Science Of Motivation

June 16, 2020 Saskia Rysenbry
Rethinking Positive Thinking

Gabriele Oettingen’s great book ‘Rethinking Positive Thinking’ shows us why ‘positive thinking’ isn’t all that is cracked up to be. Oettingen shows us that perhaps the most important aspect of achieving a goal is realizing the obstacle ‘within you’ that is most likely to derail your intentions and then developing a plan with the obstacle in mind. I highly recommend it.

Designed To Move: The Science-Backed Program To Fight Sitting Disease And Enjoy Lifelong Health

November 30, 2019 Saskia Rysenbry
Designed To Move

Dr. Joan Vernikos was the Director of Life Sciences at NASA. In her research, she discovered that what happens to humans when we don’t move in gravity (aka sit and be sedentary) is a lesser version of what happens to astronauts in space. If you want to grow your bone density and your muscle mass and if you want to have healthy blood pressure then you must move in gravity and lucky for us here on Earth we have just the right amount of it. But if we sit for periods greater then 30 minutes we reduce the effects of gravity and destroy our health. Get the Move Note to find out more.
