5 Books That Will Change The Way You Live

Coming in hot with the educational material today. We've put together five of our favorite books that will help you feel, look and live healthier. ⬇️ 

1. Atomic Habits, by James Clear: The most practical read about building and maintaining good habits. Clear outlines four main points to help habits stick; make it obvious, make it attractive, make it easy and make it satisfying. By following these guidelines, you’ll help train your brain to develop the structure and routine you’re seeking. 

2. Super Agers, by Eric Topol: Cardiologist and scientist Eric Topol explores why a small group of people remain physically sharp, cognitively strong, and largely disease-free well into old age. He blends cutting-edge research in genetics, immune systems, metabolism, and microbiomes with real-world case studies of these unusually resilient individuals. The book argues that while genes matter, lifestyle factors, movement, sleep, stress regulation, diet, and social connection, play an even larger role in extending health span. Topol also examines how emerging technologies like AI-driven medicine and personalized diagnostics could help more people age the way super agers do.

3. Peak, by Anders Ericsson: The definitive guide to learning any skill, from learning guitar to at-home cooking, Peak demonstrates the concept of purposeful practice. Teaching your body and mind new things requires more than repetition, it requires meticulous studying. Ericsson challenges Malcom Gladwell’s theory of 10,000 hours equating to mastery, and suggests that it depends entirely on the activity you’re setting out to conquer. 

4. Why We Sleep, by Dr. Matthew Walker: Contains everything you wanted to know about sleep along with facts you likely didn’t know existed. Why We Sleep showcases how our nightly slumber is linked to consolidating memory, increasing creativity, repairing muscle, stabilizing mood and lowering risk of chronic disease and illness. Sleep is the secret to longevity, health and productivity. Learn the ins and outs on how to obtain quality sleep hygiene. 

5. Breath, by James Nestor: Each of us has untapped potential that lives within our breath. Through science-backed research, Nestor explains why nasal breathing and a slower average breathing rate are the two keys to breathing better and thus, increasing overall health. Unlocking healthy breath work habits has a direct correlation to lowering oxidative stress. Learn how to be the master of yours with this read.
