by Editors of Chartwell Books (Author)

Did you know you can rewire your brain for health by making simple modifications to your lifestyle? This life-changing workbook guides you through every step to maximum well-being.

We're in the age of medical marvels, advances, and interventions that have enabled us to live longer and live better. Along with a greater life expectancy, however, we're also seeing increases in certain degenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia; cardiovascular diseases; diabetes; and certain types of cancer. Bio-hacking offers a way to reduce your risk for these diseases by changing the environment around you--and inside of you--so you have full control of your own biology.

In The Longevity Blueprint, you'll learn how to do just this, essentially hacking and rewiring your body's operating system to improve your health and well-being. With the tips and advice inside this book, you'll learn how to improve cognitive health, increase focus, improve physical wellness, and boost happiness. It's about doing the things we already know keep us healthy: eat right, exercise (body and mind), reduce stress, get more rest. Though it's how we go about these things that separates the hackers from those who give up after failing to see immediate results.

With the book's writing prompts and journaling pages, you will learn some practical steps you can take to bio-hack your own biology and benefit brain function:

• Nutrition: healthy diet, brain-boosting foods
• Exercise: regular physical activity, mind-body exercises
• Sleep: good sleep environment, good sleep routine
• Mental stimulation: brain challenges and puzzles, journaling
• Mindfulness and meditation: exercises and breathwork
• Mind-body connection: stress management, social connections

Once touted as a tool only for the wealthy, bio-hacking can equip anyone with an arsenal of tools and strategies to help you take charge of your health. A longer, healthier life is not just for the rich!
