I am in the middle of making reels about how important our lifestyle is for our health. In this weeks podcast I am talking to Dr Sarah McKay about dementia and Alzheimer's. She agreed with all the data - 45% of dementia and Alzheimer’s is preventable if we look after our lifestyle. It's that simple.

I really want young people to know this.

Listen to the full podcast on all channels - Why didn't anyone tell me this?

And catch my reels about lifestyle on Instagram and come and join us next Weds evening when I will be talking about health and happiness in later life for world menopause month with Your Menopause by Harley Street at Home. I will put the link in the comments.

Sleep is a superpower and probably the most important of our 5 pillars of wellbeing.

What do you do before you go to bed?
 
Is your bedroom your sanctuary?
 
What do you do when you wake up in the morning?
 
Do you sleep with someone who disrupts your sleep?
 
You can hear more about sleep on my podcast with Dr Neil Stanley.

Welcome to the start of my podcast mini series on chronic health conditions - which are conditions that last for at least a year, need ongoing treatment and are often not curable.

The first podcast is with Dr Sarah McKay about dementia and Alzheimers. Listen to the full podcast on all channels - Why didn't anyone tell me this?

Here Sarah explains what dementia is.

Want to be healthy? Exercise is a non-negotiable. In the next podcasts I’m talking to experts about chronic health conditions. Hear what they say about the importance of exercise.

I hear many women say they don’t have time. It’s your choice. You’ve got 168 hours in a week. Can you spare 30 mins 4 x a week?

The women I interviewed for my book love exercise. Skate boarding. Swimming. Dancing. Hiking. Gym. Pilates. Exercise classes. Wild swimming. And much more.

I’ve done lots of podcasts about exercise. Catch up via my web site or any podcast channel. Why didn’t anyone tell me this?

There’s something out there that you’ll enjoy.
