technologies and AI and biomarkers and supplements and things that we can take.

But I'm going to speak at the two ends of the spectrum.

So I think the basics, like Gary and Will have already mentioned,

sleep and diet particularly taking care of your gut but also understanding where stress shows up for you so there's the gut gut microbiome brain connection so for a lot of people when they're stressed it really does show up in their gut through bloating or leaky gut symptoms or indigestion

But there's also something called psychodermatology, which is about the connection between your mental state and your skin.

So obviously, if you have a breakout, that affects your mood.

But equally, the skin isn't just the physical boundary of your body.

It's the psychological boundary of...

transgressions, so emotional, financial, sexual transgressions can actually show up as rashes on your skin.

So really understanding where stress shows up for you.

There's also, I could go into the psycho, neuro, endocrino, immunology connection, but basically everything's connected.

So

All the systems will show some symptom of stress.

Like Gary said, we don't all have every autoimmune system, but it will show up somewhere for you.

And I think I love that analogy of the first domino.

So I would start with the basics.

If you're not creating the physical foundations for success in your body to change something with neuroplasticity, it's like saying, I'm not going to put gas in the car, but I expect it to drive.

So you do have to be sleeping enough, eating well, hydrated.

not being sedentary, you know, oxygenating your system and managing your stress.

I really want to bring it back to that being very important.
