Summary

We're living in an era where we're bombarded with information and expert opinions from every direction. As a result, many of us have become overly reliant on external expertise, constantly searching for the 'right' answer about how to eat, move, and live. What I've noticed in my two decades as a medical doctor is that this can actually prevent us from tuning into our own inner expertise and create lasting change.   In this special BONUS podcast episode, I share some powerful insights from a live event that took place in London earlier this year about why knowledge alone isn't enough to create lasting change in our lives and how we can become our own experts.   The truth is, most of us already know what we should be doing to improve our health - we know too much sugar isn't good for us, we know movement is important, and we know we should probably spend less time on our phones. But knowledge isn't enough. What's missing is self-awareness and insight into why we make the choices we do.   In this episode, you'll discover: My simple 3M framework for daily routines, helping you create lasting change even if you only have 5 minutes to spare How to develop your own intuition. Why starting your day mindfully prevents 'micro-stress doses' from accumulating, leading to better mood and healthier choices throughout your day A powerful journaling practice that builds self-awareness, helping you understand your choices and create sustainable change How to maintain transformative routines in a busy household, setting an example that inspires those around you One of the key messages I want you to take away from this episode is that you can change who you are at any time - you're not destined to be the person you were yesterday. Through practices like journaling, you can develop a deeper understanding of yourself, as well as the insight needed to make lasting changes.   And for those who feel they don't have time for elaborate routines - and I know many of us feel this way - I explain why even small actions, done consistently, can be transformative. You don't need perfect conditions to start, and in fact, maintaining these practices even in a busy household can set a powerful example for those around you.   I truly hope you find this episode helpful and that it gives you practical tools you can implement immediately. If you know someone who could benefit from listening, please share it with them, too.

Hey guys, how you doing? I hope you having a good week so far. My name is Dr. Rangan Chatterjee,

and this is my podcast, Feel Better, Live More.

0:15.2

Today's episode is a bonus recording of a live event that took place earlier this year on Thursday the 29th of February in London

0:25.0

to celebrate the publication of the journal I created and published in collaboration with intelligent change, the three-question journal.

0:35.3

Now, think back to February earlier this year. What was going on in your life?

0:41.0

How are you feeling? Were there some changes back then that you really wanted to make?

0:47.5

And how did that go? Have things moved forward in a positive way, or have things stayed the same?

I know for me back then, I was deep into the final stages of writing my six book

make change that lasts that comes out in just a few weeks.

1:06.6

And I think the fact that I was so immersed in writing at that time

1:10.5

is reflected in the content of this conversation.

1:14.6

One of the key themes I talk about is this idea that we are now living in an era where we're constantly bombarded with information and expert opinions.

1:27.1

And as a result, many of us have become overly reliant on external expertise

1:33.3

and less trusting of ourselves.

1:36.3

Now, my contention is that you already know enough to improve the quality of your life.

1:43.3

It's not necessarily more external knowledge that you need,

1:47.5

but more inner knowledge. And in this special live recording, you will hear me explore a number of

1:53.9

different topics relating to this theme. I talk about the importance of routines and rituals,

2:04.5

the value of repetition each day, the hidden cost of micro-stress doses, a powerful journaling practice that you can start doing immediately,

2:12.4

and I talk about the importance of a mindful and intentional approach to life.

At its call, this is really a conversation about making positive changes in your life that actually last.
