3 Science-Backed Habits That Will Make You Feel Better Every Day

Drawing on seven years of conversations with leading health experts, Jay explores “complexity bias,” our tendency to believe complicated solutions must be more effective than simple ones. He breaks better health down to three fundamentals: moving your body, protecting your attention, and investing in your relationships. Backed by decades of research, Jay shows why getting the basics right can have a bigger impact than any elaborate routine, and shares a simple 7-day movement challenge to help you put it into practice.

With Love and Gratitude,
