Dr Erica Oberg, naturopathic doctor, concierge physician and author of Healthy Hedonism: Why Feeling Good Is Good for You , joins me to take apart the idea that health has to be built on restriction, discipline and self denial.

In this episode: Why restriction based wellness fails, and what actually sustains a habit How the way you eat changes your metabolism more than what you eat Why a workout you hate raises your stress hormones and will never stick What orgasms do to the default mode network, and why that is so good for your brain Dopamine, oxytocin and the small moments of connection that rewire you Laughter as the easiest doorway back into your body Dr Oberg is offering listeners a complimentary audiobook of Healthy Hedonism : claim it here Find Dr Oberg at drericaoberg.com and on LinkedIn .
