Summary
Dr. Emily Splichal, who first joined me for this episode on how to get stronger feet and then this episode on how to get rid of your bunions, is a renowned functional podiatrist, human movement specialist, and global leader in barefoot science and movement longevity. With over two decades of experience in sports medicine, movement therapy, and neuroscience, she has revolutionized the understanding of foot function, sensory stimulation, and neuroplasticity in optimizing human movement.
The book offers practical strategies to reconnect with the body’s sensory intelligence, integrating ancestral wisdom with cutting-edge research to optimize movement patterns and enhance neuroplasticity. Aimed at athletes, therapists, and anyone seeking to move better, Sensory Sapiens provides a transformative blueprint for harnessing the nervous system’s power to achieve pain-free, efficient movement and longevity.

| 0:00.0 | My name is Ben Greenfield and on this episode of the Boundless Life podcast. |
| 0:05.0 | To optimize posture, human movements, movement longevity, you have to have a relationship with gravity that's at our core what shapes our muscles, our nervous system, our bone density. |
| 0:18.0 | So that ties into the pelvic floor as our center of gravity and it's a huge |
| 0:23.9 | postural muscle is you have to be connected to your pelvic floor. When you connect to it, you are |
| 0:30.8 | thinking about it as this anti-gravity muscle, which means there's going to be a lift. So when we talk to gravity, we have |
| 0:41.6 | to lift into gravity, our whole system, not just our pelvic floor. So we are communicating with |
| 0:48.3 | or being very symbiotic with gravity. People who work against gravity or they're not thinking about gravity |
| 0:55.2 | or the people who have low back pain and we are heavy in our posture. We're heavy in our |
| 1:01.8 | skeleton and in our body. It's all interconnected and it's really a gravity story. Welcome to the |
| 1:09.5 | boundless life with me, your host, Ben Greenfield. I'm a personal |
| 1:13.5 | trainer, exercise physiologist, and nutritionist, and I'm passionate about helping you discover |
| 1:18.4 | unparalleled levels of health, fitness, longevity, and beyond. |
| 1:32.7 | Fatty 15 is something that a lot of people are talking about these days. |
| 1:35.8 | Technically, it's a carbon 15 colon zero. |
| 1:40.7 | This is how you'd see this if you were reading a science book, which I'm sure you do all the time. |
| 1:46.7 | Anyways, C15, also known as Fatty 15, and Fatty 15 sounds cooler. So that's all I'm going to say now. This is basically a newer type of fatty acid. It's the first essential |
| 1:53.8 | fatty acid, as a matter of fact, discovered in over 90 years. So Fatty 15 has been developed by |
| 2:00.2 | Dr. Stephanie Van Watson, who I will be |
| 2:02.6 | interviewing on my podcast very soon. She discovered C-15, I mean fatty 15, while studying how |
| 2:08.8 | dolphins age. She found that fatty 15 not only supported dolphins' health, but had an incredible |
| 2:13.4 | impact on human health, too, addressing what's called cellular fragility syndrome. Think of this |
| 2:19.7 | as armor for your cells. It offers 36 plus clinically relevant health benefits, outperforming |
