The Blue Zones Challenge 4 weeks to a better, happier and less stressed life Dan Buettner, founder of Blue Zones and author of the number one New York Times bestseller Blue Zones Kitchen, offers the challenge of a lifetime: Set up your surroundings and social network to make living the Blue Zones life easy. Unlike virtually every other health challenge, the Blue Zones Challenge does not focus on behavior change and habit formation. It’s not an elimination diet or fitness plan. Individual change is hard and willpower runs out quickly. Most New Year’s resolutions last just four to six weeks. Instead, the Blue Zones Challenge helps you improve the places and spaces where you spend the most time (including your social circle!) to create the Blue Zones life you want. In this easy-to-implement guide, you’ll get tips and tricks from the five blue zones—locations around the world where people consistently live to 100—with advice for setting up a successful kitchen and pantry and resources for expanding your support network. Then, follow week-by-week prompts to change your diet, increase your activity, update your living spaces, and build your social life. |
