The longest living people around the world don't live near big cities or fancy hospitals or go to gyms.
They don't use fitness trackers, or take expensive supplements.
They eat food they grow in their backyard or was grown by a neighbor. They cook simple meals from scratch (with lots of repeat meals). They walk a lot. They have friends they hang out with. They feel like they have a role in their family and community. They have a spiritual practice that is meaningful to them.
As the world gets more and more crazy, remember the little old folks in mountain villages around the world.
What would they care about right now?
How would they respond?
We need to focus less on billionaires and more on Italian (or Greek, Japanese or Hunza) grannies. Not buying into the race will be the biggest flex.
I am here if you need guidance on what to focus on to prep your family for the wild ride ahead. This is not going to be just another round like the COVID-19 restrictions.
- In general, when you go to the store, buy twice as much as you would normally get. I'm going to go into more detail next week, but the price jumps are not going to hit all at once. The first jumps will be things that are imported. Medicine, grains, tea /coffee, olive and coconut oil, processed food, canned fish, pasta and some beans.
2. Start practicing cooking at home and using things that are in season.
The way out is actually a much healthier path. If you need help shifting to cooking from scratch or seasonal eating that accomodates special dietary needs, I am ready for you!
