Summary

My guest on this podcast is author, speaker, and pastor Shane Idleman, who has written 12 compelling books with a unique perspective on health, fitness, spirituality, fasting, and many other topics, including...

Feasting & Fasting: What Works, What Doesn't, and Why
40 Days to Reset Your Life: Applying God's Wisdom for Physical and Spiritual Renewal

What makes Shane's story truly inspiring is the fact that he abandoned a promising career as a Corporate Executive in the health and fitness industry to pursue a dream that God instilled in his heart following his commitment to Christ. In his words: “While I had focused on prosperity, wealth, and success, I had starved my soul. I tried everything that the world had to offer, but ultimately, I found that it offered little of lasting value.”

When asked why he thinks his books are being so well received, Shane added: “The overwhelming response simply reflects the need that we all have for the truths found in God’s Word.” Shane is the founder and lead pastor of Westside Christian Fellowship in Southern California, 60 miles North of Los Angeles. Shane also hosts a podcast at Idleman Unplugged Podcast. You can also find Shane on Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube.

0:00.0	My name is Ben Greenfield and on this episode of the Ben Greenfield Life Podcast.
0:04.2	Temptation is about immediate gratification right now, where spiritual disciplines are about
0:10.0	delayed gratification and a little bit after you make the right decision. And that's how
0:14.9	temptation gets you, is it? It wants you to experience that immediate gratification, whether it's
0:19.9	sleeping in or pornography, pornography is huge for men and women now. It's all connected.
0:24.8	It's all connected. A life that's not spiritually disciplined is falling apart in many different
0:29.7	areas. Faith, family, fitness, health, performance, nutrition, longevity, ancestral living,
0:43.2	biohacking, and a whole lot more. Welcome to the show.
0:52.4	You've probably heard me talking about foot health a lot and there is one way that you can actually
0:58.4	support your foot health that goes beyond just say walking around barefoot. So the skin on
1:03.6	the bottom of your feet has thousands of nerves that are used to control your movement and your
1:07.2	posture. The more you feel your feet, the more you feel your ground, the better you move. And you
1:11.3	can train your feet to actually have nerve stimulation that allows you to feel the ground better.
1:16.8	Not only that, but you can work on things like the space between your toes, the health of the
1:22.0	insoles in your shoes, even socks that assist with recovery and special nerve system stimulating
1:27.7	balls that you can put underneath your feet and use for example when you're standing at your
1:30.8	workstation during the day, when you're in the sauna, et cetera. They even have a full mat that
1:35.0	you can stand on that helps to support the feet and the sensory system in the feet. So there's a
1:40.5	company called Naboso, Naboso, N-A-B-O-S-O. I've actually interviewed the founder of this company
1:49.2	who also wrote a fantastic book called Barefoot Strong. Her name is Emily Splichel, SPL-IC-H-A-L.
1:56.1	You got to listen to that episode, but we get into all these different ways to support the
