Gigi’s Forever29 Train

Comme nous l’avions évoqué dans les épisodes 12 et 13, pouvons-nous faire d'Haïti une "zone bleue"? Cela signifie un endroit où les gens vivent plus longtemps, en meilleure santé et plus heureux, avec des taux de maladies chroniques plus bas qu'ailleurs. Bien que cela puisse sembler un défi, nous restons déterminés et confiants que nous pouvons y arriver ensemble. Le Dr G et moi vous invitons à nous accompagner dans ce voyage virtuel en Haïti pour découvrir comment atteindre cet objectif. Merci de votre attention et bonne écoute !

As briefly discussed in episodes 12 and 13, can Haiti become a Blue Zone? Blue Zones are places where people live longer, healthier, and happier lives, with lower rates of chronic diseases than anywhere else. Although making Haiti a Blue Zone may be challenging, we are committed to keeping hope alive and believe we can make it happen together. Dr. G and I invite everyone to join us on this virtual journey to Haiti to see how we can achieve this goal. Thank you for listening! Bonne écoute!

You might believe that your genes are set in stone and control everything from your eye color to your cancer risk. But guess what? That's only half the truth. Your genes are not your fate. They are more like a script that can be tweaked and changed by your decisions and environment. So, if you are curious about how our DNA affects our lives and how we can affect it back, Buckle up, and let's go on a journey together. We will discover how you can influence your gene expression and boost your health and happiness.

We can't wait to explore why some of us live healthily while others do not. Is it purely genetics, our environment, our lifestyle choices, or just plain luck? It will be fascinating to discover the answer, and we can do it together through the upcoming episodes of this podcast. Let's get started!

Join us for another enlightening episode of 'Where is Your Happiness?' with Dr. Hyacinthe. Today, he focuses on 'What Art Can Teach You About Happiness'. As the renowned philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer once said, art has the power to transcend reality and offer a profound perspective on life. Through mediums such as poetry, novels, paintings, sculptures, and music, Dr Hyacinthe will explore how art can enrich our lives and bring a sense of tranquility and harmony. So relax, tune in, and immerse yourself in this fascinating discussion. Bonne écoute!
 

In this episode, we'll discuss what to do with your old gadgets. As we mentioned in our previous episode, there are more sustainable solutions than throwing them in the trash or recycling bin, as they require special handling. While devices like phones, laptops, cables, and batteries contain valuable materials such as metals and plastics that can be reused or recycled, they also contain harmful substances that can harm the environment if not disposed of properly.
So, how can you responsibly recycle your electronic waste? What are the best options available? We'll share the most effective ways to dispose of your old devices and helpful tips to help you find the right place to do so. So, could you join us as we delve into this topic.

Hey, do you know what to do with your old electronic gadgets? Don't just toss them in the trash or the recycling bin. They are electronic waste, and they need special treatment. Phones, laptops, cables, and batteries have metals and plastics that can be reused or recycled. But they also have harmful substances that can pollute the environment if not handled properly. So, how can you recycle your phone?
Well, hop on board, and let’s find out.
 

This special episode is a beautiful celebration of Christmas and a tribute to the love and teachings of Jesus Christ. His selfless love and sacrifice continue to guide us on our journey, especially the Forever 29ers. As we reflect on the holiday, we are reminded of Jesus' profound impact and inspired to follow in his footsteps. Jess eloquently captures this beautiful poem, "One Solitary Life." by James Allen Francis. Throughout the centuries, his influence has far surpassed all the combined armies, navies, parliaments, and kings, making him a revered figure for humanity. He is truly the most incredible person ever, and we are immensely grateful for him.
In addition, Caleb shares some fun games for us to enjoy with our loved ones, including Dirty Santa and Mr. and Mrs. Wright. So don't hesitate to click the play button for more festive fun.

The Modern Milkman.  Can the milkman make a comeback?
In this episode, we discussed the need to decrease our use of single-use plastics due to their harmful environmental effects and potential health risks. We also discussed circular economies, where companies are transitioning towards more sustainable practices. We can all contribute to this movement by reducing, reusing, and recycling and supporting circular businesses. Loop, which allows for reusable packaging, is also highlighted as a step towards a greener planet. This concept is likened to the old milkman system but with a modern twist for all consumer goods. Many believe that this is the future of consumer goods.
 

This particular episode has been beautifully crafted by one of Dr. G.'s esteemed classmates, Dr. Hyacinthe. We are delighted to welcome him on board with us. His debut episode delves into the topic of discovering your own happiness. Are you curious to know more? Let's tune in and find out!

How to Save the Planet from Plastic Waste: 
In this episode, we talked about how to cut down on packaging waste and protect our planet. We learned that plastic waste is a huge problem that affects our environment and health and that only a small fraction of it gets recycled. We shared four easy ways to tackle this problem: avoiding unnecessary packaging, using innovative alternatives, refilling containers, and shopping mindfully. Some examples of these solutions are supermarkets and grocery stores that are ditching plastic bags and wraps, companies like Carlsberg and ICA Gruppen that are designing more innovative packaging, and services like Loop that offer reusable containers.We also encouraged you to be more conscious when you shop, choose products with less or recyclable packaging, and use reusable items whenever possible. Other ways to reduce waste are donating, selling, and composting things you don't need or use. We hope you enjoyed this episode and learned something new.

This episode is from Dr. Gilbert's Health Matters podcast. This time, he talks about a new study published in the Geroscience Journal that revealed some secrets of people who lived past 100 and are active. The study showed that maintaining good kidney function, normal blood sugar levels and uric acid levels within normal limits may increase the chances of actively living over 100 years. 
Wow, That is worth listening to. 

Finding our purpose (Ikigai), listeners' feedback, and the Benefits of eating pumpkins
How would the world change if everyone lived past 100 years?
In this episode, we address some of the feedback from our listeners regarding the Blue Zones and the topic of longevity and well-being. And we also discussed all the health benefits of eating pumpkins.
We share feedback from our listeners interested in the Blue Zones, the regions where people live the longest and healthiest. We also discuss what we can learn from their lifestyles and how we can apply them to our own.
Living beyond 100 years of age is a realistic goal for some individuals. They are not only alive but also healthy and active. They have a strong bond with nature, society, and mission. They conserve resources, protect the environment, and appreciate life. That is what we aspire to learn from them. Because if we want to extend our lifespan, we have to preserve the Earth as well. It is our habitat, after all. Therefore, let us be motivated by the Blue Zones and implement positive life changes. Longevity is not only feasible, it is remarkable.
Do you agree with us?  Let's do this! Get on board our train.

This episode is about Finding your Ikigai! That means “a reason for being, or a sense of purpose" in Japanese and other parts of the Blue Zone regions. So we talked about Ketty's excellent proposition for turning Haiti into a Blue Zone. We shared the pros and cons of this idea.
There are a lot of problems around the world. Unfortunately the mainstream media, in our opinion, do not focus on the good stuff, like what the helpers are doing, instead of making the haters behave worse by giving them attention.
So, that is why I encourage in this episode everyone to follow Buettner Power's nine simple tips, like living with a purpose and knowing why we wake up in the morning, loving our families, finding our place in our communities,  and hanging out with those who mean well. If our kids grow up with these values, the world may become a nicer place.
