  • End the music

    Please please PLEASE no one is listening to TED Health to hear annoying jazz playing in the background. Why do podcasts think they need music played while someone is speaking? It’s SO annoying I cannot listen to podcasts I’m interested in.

How to use your muscles — or risk losing them w/ Bonnie Tsui | from How to Be a Better Human
Q: What should we be doing and why?
As we age, we naturally lose muscle mass, and it's important to implement strength training to maintain health and capability in later years.
How to use your muscles — or risk losing them w/ Bonnie Tsui | from How to Be a Better Human
Q: What did writing a book about muscles teach you about how to actually make your muscles stronger?
Writing the book taught me that we all need to be using our muscles and lifting heavy, which is important for everyone's health, not just a specific body type or gender.
Interview: 4 ways to design a disability-friendly future with BJ Miller
Q: How do you think the reality that anyone could become disabled affects the way society treats people with disabilities?
BJ argues that it ramps up fear in society, as disability serves as a reminder that anyone could face a similar fate, causing discomfort and avoidance.
Interview: 4 ways to design a disability-friendly future with BJ Miller
Q: How did your accident change how you saw yourself and then how others saw you?
In many ways, BJ was initially relieved because he felt he now looked more like he felt, and this experience allowed him to understand his own resilience and his place in the world despite the trauma.
Interview: Grief is complicated — but drawing cartoons can help with Dr. Nathan Gray
Q: How do you explain to patients what palliative care is?
I clarify the role of palliative care as supportive throughout serious illness, not just at end-of-life.
