SUMMARY:Online Service: "Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity"
DESCRIPTION:Here’s the description on Amazon: \n“A groundbreaking manifesto on living better and longer that challenges the conventional medical thinking on aging and reveals a new approach to preventing chronic disease and extending long-term health\, from a visionary physician and leading longevity expert.\n…\n“Wouldn’t you like to live longer? And better? In this operating manual for longevity\, Dr. Peter Attia draws on the latest science to deliver innovative nutritional interventions\, techniques for optimizing exercise and sleep\, and tools for addressing emotional and mental health. \n“For all its successes\, mainstream medicine has failed to make much progress against the diseases of aging that kill most people: heart disease\, cancer\, Alzheimer’s disease\, and type 2 diabetes. Too often\, it intervenes with treatments too late to help\, prolonging lifespan at the expense of healthspan\, or quality of life. Dr. Attia believes we must replace this outdated framework with a personalized\, proactive strategy for longevity\, one where we take action now\, rather than waiting. \n“This is not “biohacking\,” it’s science: a well-founded strategic and tactical approach to extending lifespan while also improving our physical\, cognitive\, and emotional health. Dr. Attia’s aim is less to tell you what to do and more to help you learn how to think about long-term health\, in order to create the best plan for you as an individual.” \nThis week’s speaker will be Jack. \nAfter the talk\, we’ll have a group discussion to explore the ideas presented\, and to share related thoughts\, resources\, and personal experiences. \nThis is an online event hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Online Service: Clean Enough & Fair Enough
DESCRIPTION:Most of us don’t have a house spouse at home to take care of the housekeeping while we work; it’s no longer feasible for most households to get by on a single income\, yet when a heterosexual couple both have full-time jobs\, the woman still almost always gets saddled with most of the housework.   Or you may have found yourself the only roommate who ever does the dishes.  Even if everyone in the house helps out\, the amount of work to keep a house clean and running can seem overwhelming\, especially if there are children or disabilities in the mix.  I’ll discuss some approaches to make keeping the house livable more manageable and to share the load more evenly\, speaking as an expert in trying things and figuring out how to get by\, *not* as an expert on having a clean house. \nThis week’s speaker will be Eva Carlstrom. \nAfter the talk\, we’ll have a group discussion to explore the ideas presented\, and to share related thoughts\, resources\, and personal experiences. \nThis is an online event hosted on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Online Service: Wait But Why's Story of Us\, 1: The Great Battle of Fire & Light
DESCRIPTION:“When you’re a single cell in the body of a giant\, it’s hard to understand what the giant’s doing\, or why it is the way it is\, because you can’t really zoom out and look at the whole thing all at once. But we do our best.” \nThis is the first in what I hope to be a series of talks drawn from the series of posts on Wait But Why called The Story of Us. This series is the result of Tim Urban\, creator of Wait But Why\, following “some sick-ass rabbit down a hole for three years\, deep into U.S. history\, world history\, evolutionary psychology\, political theory\, and neuroscience\, through dozens of books\, hundreds of datasets and articles\, and into literally thousands of conversations.\n…\n“Part of what [Tim has] spent three years working on is a new language we can use to think and talk about our societies and the people inside of them. In typical Wait But Why form\, the language is full of new terms and metaphors and\, of course\, lots and lots of badly drawn pictures. It all amounts to a new lens. Looking through this lens out at the world\, and inward at myself\, things make more sense now.” \n“In the early parts of the series\, we’ll get familiar with the new lens\, and as the series moves on\, we’ll start using the lens to look at [more challenging topics]. If I can do my job well\, by the end of the journey\, everything will make more sense to you too.” \n“As with all Wait But Why posts\, everything in this series is open for debate—it’s [Tim’s] latest draft in a never-ending work in progress.” As the series progresses\, your comments and discussion will help enhance our clarity and understanding. \nThis week’s speaker will be Jack. \nAfter the talk\, we’ll have a group discussion to explore the ideas presented\, and to share related thoughts\, resources\, and personal experiences. \nThis is an online event hosted on Zoom.
