What do Fredrik Sträng say?

1. Train every day. Eat healthily. Sleep at least eight hours a day. Repeat.
 
2. Intermitting fasting twice a month (I usually do three days of fasting/per month and 5-7 days twice a year). Check out Prof. David Sinclair for his seminal research on prolonging life.
 
3. Breathwork (6 healing sounds of qigong, and Wim Hof is a good start if you want to practice).
 
4. Icebaths. It stings like a bee, but so does life. Chocking the body puts it in defence mode and strengthens it against infections and sickness. Also, learning to live with uncomfortable sensations makes you stronger mentally.
 
5. Sunlight early in the morning. The melatonin rhythm phase advancement caused by exposure to bright morning light has been effective against insomnia, premenstrual syndrome, and seasonal affective disorder (SAD). The melatonin precursor, serotonin, is also affected by exposure to daylight.
 
6. Zinzino balance oil (please contact me if you want to check your blood vitals with their unique test). It increases your body’s Omega-3 levels and safely restores the fatty acid balance with its unique, synergistic formula because better health is personal. Not a guessing game.
 
7. Meditation. If our schools advocated for meditation every day in school, not only would it pacify our children and make them more in control of their emotions and focus, their test results and self-esteem would flourish.
 
8. Yoga Nidra (check out Steve Wolf on Spotify). Phenomenal way of regaining contact with your soma. Great before going to sleep or in the morning.
 
9. Last but not least. Practice makes perfect 🙂
 

 

Listen to the latest interview with me in the podcast "Spöktimmen" (only in Swedish) where the skilled journalist's Jenny Borg and Linn Ek dive deep into topics such as fear, driving forces, risks and what happened on K2 during the fateful summer of 2008 where 11 people tragically lost their lives.

In some spiritual traditions, birthdays are considered auspicious occasions that mark a person's progress on the path to enlightenment. For example, in Buddhism, the birthday of the Buddha is celebrated as a holiday called Vesak, which is considered a time to reflect on the Buddha's teachings and the path to liberation from suffering. Similarly, in the Sikh tradition, the birthday of Guru Nanak is celebrated as a time to reflect on his teachings and the values of service, compassion, and justice.
 
Cesare Pavese, the Italian poet, once said, "We Do Not Remember Days; We Remember Moments." It sheds light on how memories are created and how closely we hold onto those special moments.
 
So reflect, grow and fill your life with moments!

International Forest Day, also known as the International Day of Forests, is celebrated annually on March 21st. It was established by the United Nations General Assembly in 2012 to raise awareness about the importance of all types of forests and trees outside forests.

The day aims to promote the importance of forests in supporting sustainable development and mitigating climate change, as well as to highlight the various environmental, social, and economic benefits that forests provide. Each year, the day is marked by various events and activities organized by governments, organizations, and individuals worldwide to promote forest conservation and sustainable management.

So plant a tree!
