Humor in Longevity: When Wellness Gets a Little Ridiculous

Description:

Tune into the newest episode of our Energy Works Podcast, where science meets spirit to help you heal, energize, and thrive.

Blaine and Lauren have fun with a Vanity Fair wellness spoof article that hits a little too close to home. The article is packed with longevity hacks, including supplements, red light therapy, and biohacking routines.

What starts as humor turns into a deeper conversation about the stress, pressure, and performative culture behind modern wellness and anti-aging.

They discuss current longevity research and explore energy as the often-missing piece of the puzzle. Drawing from Energy Medicine Yoga, they share how tuning your body’s energy may support real health, happiness, and resilience.

This episode is a light, funny, honest reminder that true wellness isn’t about doing more, it’s actually about feeling better. Now available wherever you get your podcasts!
