There’s a cool blue Netflix documentary called Living in the Blue Zones.
These blue zones are nothing but small pockets of human inhabitants, strewn across the world, and that for some strange reason, consistently manage to have their folks live well past 100!
How do these happy and healthy centerenians do it? You’ll have to watch the documentary for the real dope, but there was one amazing example on stress.
In Sardinia, which is one of the blue zones, the men would be shepherds most day. How much anxiety do they have? Very little, unless one or two sheep get away and stray a bit far!
But in who’s control is that? The shepherd’s of course! And hence if something bad is controllable, then the stress from it is minuscule.
But what of the stress that plagues us nowadays? Hmm, worth thinking about…
