Summary

Get your FREE BOX OF LMNT hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase here! In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy discuss seizing control in everyday situations, which is especially important during unpredictable times. Intermittent fasting and extended fasting create immediate control throughout the day. They talk about routines and how controlling what is within your reach will help you be a leader and a source of stability to those around you. Fasting trims away obligations and never-ending calorie counting in favor of fewer, simpler decisions that are much easier to commit to and maintain. A sense of control can be cultivated by learning from history and knowing that cycles are a natural part of life. They remind listeners that simplifying one's daily life means less to worry about and lower anxiety levels during downturns, even as most other people are fearing the worst. Fasting automatically makes daily life simpler and lowers fears of food shortages, unscheduled interruptions to meal timing, and having to adjust complicated meal plans due to specific food availability.   Show Transcript: www.thefastingforlife.com/blog   If you enjoy the podcast, would you please tap on the stars below and consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?

We started fasting for life because of how fasting has transformed our lives and we hope to share the tools that we have learned along the way. Hey everyone, my name is Dr Scott Watier. I am here as always with my good friend and colleague

Tommy Welling good evening sir good evening Scott how are you I'm doing good man we

0:50.0

we made it another week the The world has not ended. So we are here to deliver some more value and really just continue the conversation with what we've had going from last week, which I will admit, scratched

1:08.3

an itch that I typically have when it comes to the field of science and nutrition because I think we had 107

1:16.5

research links to all of the articles that we were talking about not just you know

1:22.3

news articles but journal articles and I think I'm good for a while

1:26.6

because that was that was pretty heavy.

1:28.1

Yeah we got a little dense there but I think it was good I think we hit on some good topics that were on people's mind. We got some good feedback. We seem to answer some questions and kind of get above the fray and I think a lot of people were looking for that and so I think that was good.

1:50.0

Yeah, we I went in with it into it thinking, that was one of the longer preps we've had to just peek behind the curtain.

And I went into it thinking, all right, we're going to deliver this, it's going to be actionable, and really what I heard more in terms of feedback was more of the kind of just the tone and the vibe. I know you're going to laugh when I say the word tone. The tone and the vibe of it was just different where even my wife was like you just sounded different and I was like well yeah it was it was it was different than what we typically do

2:20.7

But it it's still got a very similar conversational result. I'm not sure if that's the same thing you felt

2:27.3

Yeah, I felt like

2:31.1

I don't know it definitely sounded different it felt different but at the same time it was one of those things where you know we went back and forth should we do something you know relevant to the pandemic and and the fear that's out there and just

2:49.2

you know trying to to get a pulse on what's on people's minds and how it's related to our goals and our
