Is your current lifestyle actually hurting your well-being? Discover how modern living might be impacting your health and what you can do about it. This video explores the subtle ways our daily routines and environments can undermine our physical and mental health.

Join Dr. Pedram Shojai as he sits down with nutrition experts Mira and Jason Colton, who share their incredible journey of exploring remote cultures and ancient remedies. They discuss how stepping outside their comfort zones and immersing themselves in diverse environments provided profound insights into well-being and micronutrient deficiencies. You'll hear about their unique "honeymoon" that spanned seven years and took them to places like Papua New Guinea and Antarctica, offering a fresh perspective on what it means to truly live and thrive. Learn how their untethered adventure revealed the importance of connection, resilience, and understanding the world around us. This conversation with The Urban Monk will inspire you to re-evaluate your own lifestyle choices and consider how a shift in perspective can lead to a healthier, more fulfilling life.
