100 Not Out

Damian recently had an experience with a family who had been following a wholefoods diet and ended up requiring a large number of fillings. On this episode we discuss the possible impact that the raw / vegan / paleo dessert movement has had on foodies. If anything, this episode will leave you hiding behind  the raw / vegan / paleo / gluten-free labels at your own peril! Speaking of food, ensure you register for Kale Brock’s Gut Healing Summit and receive a Wellness Summit Home Study Program as a bonus from The Wellness Couch.

When Dr John Hart turned 50 he was overweight, with constant fatigue and brain fog, a fading memory, low mood and no libido or enthusiasm. He didn’t like the answer of what the future held. So he started researching anti-ageing and functional medicine, applying what he learnt, and saw incredible changes in his body composition, memory and attention and overall vitality and health. Dr John is the founder of the Hart Clinic and author of The Brain Book. You can find out more about him at www.drjohnhart.com The post 100NO 206: Brain & Body Health With Dr John Hart appeared first on The Wellness Couch.

How often do you truly get into the deep and meaningful discussions around your life? When was the last time you were able to truly dedicate 48 hours straight on YOU? Fresh back from The Wellness Breakthrough we discuss just how important it is to spend time on ourselves, having just observed 31 incredible people dig deeper than they ever expected over the course of 2 nights and 3 days in the Dandenong Ranges. It’s definitely NOT urgent to get D&M with yourself, but it could be the most IMPORTANT gift you ever give yourself.

Damo does the unthinkable and brings up an off-air conversation with Marcus whilst ON-air. In short, Damo stitches up Marcus on this episode. Marcus shares details of his water-fast that were previously for private conversations only, and the two also discuss the benefits of apple cider vinegar, salt flushes vs enemas, parasites, fungal infections, digestive health and more. If laughter is a major ingredient to living a great, long life, this one will keep you going for centuries

This podcast is very “intimate” and so if you don’t want to know gory details then this may NOT be the episode for you! OK, so warning over. Marcus recently completed a 5-day water fast (for reasons he shares in the episode) and also added in some enemas and a salt flush. If you haven’t listened to Marcus recount his first salt flush on episode 118 (arguable the funniest episode we’ve ever done) then you’re missing out. In any case, Damian asks Marcus some hard questions which bring out some serious answers AND some serious laughs. We hope this episode brightens your day

This is a remarkable life philosophy! Thanks to Damian’s friend Dr Simon Kelly for living it! Damo shares the story of a phone conversation he was having with his good friend Simon. 24 hours later Simon was on a plane to spend quality time with his good mate Damian. Why? The answer lies in the 40/60 rule. A fascinating story, an even better life lesson and philosophy.

Damian has recently farewelled his step mum, Dawn, who passed away following a short battle with cancer. In this episode Damian shares some of his emotions and observations, particularly around whether one’s passing is an opportunity to celebrate life or to commiserate death (or both?).

100 Not Out turns 200 Not Out! On this very special episode we reveal our greatest mentors in life – and the answers may surprise you. There is no denying the influence of mentors in our life – both empowering and disempowering. Anyone who has had a troubled upbringing via disempowered parents can attest to the struggle they have had to overcome as a result of it. Conversely, anyone who has benefitted greatly from mentors will only too happily share just what impact it has had. So we both share our greatest personal and professional mentors in the hope that you will identify who yours are too, and fill in any missing gaps should you need to.

This is an inspiring story about someone who, liked thousands of others in the health and wellness world, thought that her “extreme” behaviour was a “balanced life”. Can you relate to this? For Hillary King-Sullivan, attending the 100 Not Out Longevity Retreat to Ikaria was the turning point. She described the event not as a holiday or a retreat, but an immersion, which is why, in her own words, she has made such incredible, lasting change since. Tune in for this remarkable story of transformation and inspiration. And if you’re ready to make a significant shift in your life, just like Hillary did, come and join us in Ikaria for the 2017 Greek Island Longevity Retreat. Also, for more on Hillary’s incredible back story, listen to episode 287 of The Wellness Guys, where LT and Damian ask Hillary about the premature death of her husband and how she has raised her two incredible sons, Hamish & Giles.

She has grieved for children and still maintains optimism. She has seen world wars take place, and still loves the world we live in. She enjoys the simple pleasures of life, and doesn’t get caught up in bright shiny objects. In short, Bette Green is a marvellous template for living the 100 Not Out life.

The incredible story of Wang Deshun (aka China’s Hottest Grandpa) was the tipping point of inspiration for Marcus to do an about-face and jump in the ocean with Damian, Don Riddington and a group of 100 Not Out Lifestyle Event attendees. Wang Deshun is not unlike many of the 100 Not Out legends we have interviewed on this podcast. He is determined, has a very clear vision, and does not let his age limit any objective. There is so much wisdom in the living legends we are fortunate to live with today. Wang is just one of them. We encourage you to use people like Wang as vehicles to challenge ANY limiting beliefs you have about your life.

The annual fortune telling episode of 100 Not Out is here! Since 2014 we have accurately identified the nature of the universe and all its deviations to within a nanosecond! Hehe, OK seriously. There are always trends developing whilst others are on the decline, particularly when it comes to food, movement and personal growth. We go through what has been popular in 2016, what is likely to become unpopular in 2017, and what the new kid on the block in the wellness world will be. In 2017 we RETURN to IKARIA for the 9-night 10-day transformational 100 Not Out Greek Island Longevity Retreat. Registrations close January 30! Click here to find out more and to book your spot!

It’s easy to fall in a heap at Christmas time. Family stress, financial stress, logistical stress, year-end functions and social gatherings, and so on. On this episode of 100 Not Out we work through some of the more challenging parts of Christmas (dealing with grief, sickness, etc) and provide some insights as to how to navigate Listen In The post 100NO 194: Christmas Stress Tips appeared first on The Wellness Couch.

Our guest on this edition of 100 Not Out is a fascinating human being. Andy Ramage is a former professional athlete turned oil broker who decided to go one year without beer – and it has stuck. Andy is also a master practitioner of NLP, a mindfulness based awareness coach and is currently studying for a master’s degree in both positive psychology and coaching psychology. A love of wellbeing and peak performance led Andy to stop drinking alcohol in the face of massive social pressure. Running a brokerage in the city and ‘not drinking’ is almost unheard of. From this experience he realised that there were probably millions of others out there desperate for a break from alcohol who could not overcome this pressure. So he wrote a book and co-founded a movement with Ruari Fairbairn’s called OneYearNoBeer a 30, 90 and 365 day alcohol free challenge to change peoples perception of alcohol. Andy’s unique background, education and experience of running OneYearNoBeer make him one of the world’s leading habit change exp

During our time in Ikaria we were fortunate to meet Carina Aaltonen. Carina has been a Member of Parliament in Aaland (near Finland) since 2003 and is on a mission to create one of the healthiest and fulfilled communities in the world. Carina travelled to Ikaria to observe just how they had not only created their lifestyle, but owned in so strongly despite the pace of the world increasing, technology taking over manual labour, and communication and relationship changes from generation to generation. We picked Carina’s brain on a number of topics, including – Tell us about the Aaland Islands – population, lifestyle, and so on.  What inspired you to travel to Ikaria? What education do you have to provide the public with in order for them to get involved? What impact do you envisage this process having on the rest of Finland and the EU? What are the MOST important parts of society to get RIGHT in order to be a Blue Zone? How long is the vision? Do you see this is a 10-20-50 year project? To watch this episode on

Weight loss. Is it ever OFF the agenda? It’s a constant source of desire, stress, self-esteem sapping energy for many, and most, if not all of us have changed our diet or lifestyle to shed a kilo or two over our lifetime. On this episode of 100 Not Out we explore how to approach weight loss as Christmas and Summer approaches (for those in the southern hemisphere), and how to align weight loss with our truest desires (and not necessarily what a stranger might think of us).

Prebiotics, Probiotics, Antibiotics, Synbiotics & Symbiosis … does it ever end? And we haven’t even mentioned the mother of them all, the microbiome! In this episode of 100 Not Out we track the ever-confusing progression of probiotics. Whilst most people on the wellness path recognise that probiotics are important for every single one of us, which ones to take, which ones NOT to take, and just HOW to take them has become another mental minefield for health enthusiasts and beginners alike. To the rescue (as always on 100 Not Out when it comes to nutrition) is Damian Kristof, the voice of reason! Damo shares the easy mistakes (like feeding adult strains to children), and also defines the different types of -biotics so that we may have the clarity we crave as consumers to make the best choices for ourselves and our families.

Donald Trump may be the next president of the United States, but what does the entire election campaign tell us about how we consume our media. And what then do we make them of our own culture, both national and personal? Damian & Marcus take a look at this from a 100 Not Out perspective.

This enthralling chat on mindfulness with world leader Marvin Oka was too difficult to condense into one episode. So on part 2 we explore how to deal with life’s problems in a mindful way. What do you do when the kids are going crazy? What about when you’ve had a fight with your partner? How do you get through a tough day at the office in a mindful way? We ask the hard questions about the tough times in order to gain clarity on what mindfulness really is, when to apply it, HOW to apply it, and how to deal with others who may not be so focussed on mindfulness! We also discuss what type of growth people in positions of leadership need to undertake. There are three types which Marvin refers to near the end of the episode.
