TV's Richard Arnold on the best time of your life #99

E

Here's what happened when I went to meet my old friend, TV's Richard Arnold. Richard is known to millions who watch him on Good Morning Britain every morning. He also appeared on Strictly Come Dancing (the UK version of Dancing With The Stars. One of the great things about Zestology is sometimes we go in depth on health, nutrition, supplements, lifestyle hacks, and sometimes keep it more general by chatting to someone who has had lots of success and find out exactly what makes them tick, and what motivates them. And when Richard and I got together for a Zestology chat, we both got all reflective. How often do you think about getting older? Might this be the best time of your life? What is the best way to deal with ageing? How do we maintain motivation as we get (a bit!) older? How do we improve with age? (Fine wine anyone?)

An almost scientific look at what makes relationships tick. With comedian Giulia Rozzi #98

E

Love and relationships. How do you make it all work? Because let's be honest, when that goes well, most things seem to slot into place. Giulia Rozzi is a writer, comedian, actress, producer and "very emotional person" (her words!). Her life is basically her work. When her marriage broke down, she performed her hit show Bad Bride all over the world. Now she presents the podcast Hopefully We Don't Split Up with her new(ish) boyfriend. This podcast involved her grilling me about my love life too. Wow. It was a lot of fun... and Giulia has picked up a lot of relationships wisdom on her comedic journey. Just don't call her a Relationship Expert.

Especially the bit when he talked about being celibate for 9 years. So he came on Zestology again, and this time I wanted to ask him about maximising our energy and hormones. He was on fire.. .

How to not get stressed, (even when you are getting taken to court…) The surefire way to maximise your hormones. (For men and women.)

Using The Law of Attraction to create abundance in 2017 #95

E

Get inspired, lit up and optimistic about this year with the Law of Attraction. This year, I wanted to focus on creating a podcast for you right at the start of 2017 that focuses on achieving exactly what you want, using one of the most powerful techniques that's featured on the show over the last year. And it turns out the key is not resolutions, but New Year's Intentions. Once you make them intentions, the pressure is off, and the Law of Attraction starts to send you towards what you want with powerful energy. Please do listen to the podcast for more on creating good intentions for the year ahead. How can the Law of Attraction help us make this year our best ever? What is the best way to write down our 2017 goals? The secret little behaviours that lead to big wins To answer those questions, I've done two things. Firstly, I've chatted to Zestology Law of Attraction expert Jeannette Maw. She's been on Oprah to talk LOA, and she knows her stuff. She's also been the guest on the most downloaded Zestology show of all time. Then, I went back and listened to the podcast I recorded at this time last year with elite performance coach Dr. Stephen Simpson to discuss the perfect approach to goal setting. It turns out, that there are huge similarities between the two styles to goal-setting. And the two compliment each other very well.

Get Your Sh*t Together with author and anti-guru Sarah Knight #92

E

Anyone who describes themselves as an 'anti-guru' is okay in my book. This world of wellbeing and personal development is probably too full of people promising to change your life when actually they couldn't change a lightbulb. So welcome back one of my all-time fave podcast guests. It's almost a year ago that I interviewed Sarah Knight on Zestology. She wrote a brililant book called The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F**k! I keep seeing people reading this book all over London. It's been a huge hit for Sarah. The interview contained such amusing parts as the four categories of potential F*** giving. Now she's written a new book - Get Your Sh*t Together: How to stop worrying about what you should do so you can finish what you need to do and start doing what you want to do. So how exactly do we do that?? Let's find out...

50 ways to look younger. Okay maybe not 50 but definitely one or two. With skin expert Andy Hnilo #91

"You have the worst facial injury I have ever seen" Those were the words Days of our Lives actor and Model Andy Hnilo heard when he came round after a horrific car accident in West Hollywood. His career, his health, and his dreams shattered, he spiralled into a long depression. And the thing he found that eventually lifted him out, provided his salvation. Andy now makes an incredible (I'm not using that word lightly) skincare brand with all natural ingredients. This stuff is the real deal. I'm a total convert. And yes, it's the first time ever I've been persuaded to use a clay mask. Why you need to listen to this podcast: There are a lot of hidden nasties in your skincare products. A lot. I thought I'd sorted out mine, and then I grabbed one and read the ingredients out to Andy. I was in for a shock. Check out Andy Hnilo's awesome Alitura brand, and listen to Zestology.

Law of Attraction

A Law of Attraction experiment. Attracting good vibes with author Jeannette Maw #90 Are you ready to fire up your cosmic good vibes? Last time Jeannette Maw came on Zestology, something very strange happened. We used the Law of Attraction to see if we could get more listeners to the podcast, with incredible results. It turned out to be the most listened-to podcast I've ever recorded, by quite a long way. So obviously I had to have Jeannette back on, and this time, something even better I hope. Stand by for a Law of Attraction experiment with Good Vibe Coach Jeannette Maw. Before you even listen though, have a think about what you would like to manifest. What you'd like to change, or have in your life that you don't have now. Ready? Okay, time to bring on Jeannette Maw.

Post-election anxiety and pulling an all-nighter in the jungle. With Lucy McCarthy #89

E

This US election was a source of stress for 52% of American adults according to the American Psychological Association. There have been multiple reports of election-related fears arising on therapists' couches as never before, along with anecdotes of relationships damaged by political disagreement. (Taken from The Guardian). So whoever you voted for, based on the above figures you may not have feeling quite so much energy, vitality and motivation over the past few days. So when Zestology friend of the show, yogi and adventurer Lucy McCarthy and I met yesterday, the original plan kind of went out the window. This isn't a trump-bashing podcast. I'm fully aware that some listeners may have voted for him. It's more about how we deal with the extraordinary stimulation and fear levels that many of us have experienced over the past few weeks, and are still experiencing now. After election stress, we move on to lighter, and more enjoyable topics including voyaging

No action should be taken based solely on the contents of this podcast; readers and listeners should consult appropriate health professionals on any matter relating to their health and wellbeing. So that's that out of the way. Raw Paleo's Melissa Henig is great fun, and has some very unusual dietary habits. I met her recently in California and she is great fun. She is a Health and Beauty Lifestyle Coach, and the author of the book Raw Paleo. She says Raw Paleo foods are powerful medicine. In this podcast, she has a tough job convincing me! She's also into Paleo lifestyle factors such as sunlight, earthing, water treatments, detox, correct breathing, natural movement, and relaxation practices.

🍊 The benefits of sun exposure, roadtripping in California and lots more with Luke Storey #87

E

So I was in California recently. I got to record a few podcasts, not least with Zestology regular The Life Stylist Luke Storey. Here's what happened when we went to the beach in Santa Barbara and recorded a podcast, joined by our good mate Ryan Carter. Includes: A simple hack to make your fridge totally awesome. (Don't pretend you're not intrigued by this!) Luke Storey is well known as a stylist, appearing regularly on MTV and VH1 and working with top names like Kanye West, Marilyn Manson, Foo Fighters, Kim Kardashian and many more. But he's also a biohacker, experimenter, coach and he is now becoming as famous for this as for his styling work. So as always, there was a lot to talk about.

Uri Geller. Mind-bending and spoon-bending live on Zestology #85

Uri Geller has had an astonishing amount of press and publicity over the years. He's been on primetime TV and front page news for bending spoons, paranormal experiments, influencing football matches, being best mates with Michael Jackson and all sorts of other psychic shenanigans. Now he speaks at huge consciousness conferences and energy events around the world. Hmmm - energy - well, that got me thinking about getting him on Zestology. I first interviewed Uri 16 years ago when I was a radio presenter on Atlantic 252. I spoke to him a few times over the years, but we'd lost touch until I contacted him recently and asked him to come on the podcast. This might be one of the more controversial podcasts I've recorded so far. Why? Well, because it's Uri really. Some love him and some don't. But prepare for a fascinating, interesting and fun journey on Zestology today. If you're sceptical about Uri, that's cool, rest assured I ask him about all the negative publicity he's received over the years. I don't let him off lightly. And then, after that, it's time for a little experiment. And... guess what, it turns out Uri still bends spoons. So grab a spoon, and get listening to the wonderful Uri Geller on Zestology.

Focus

How to improve your focus with leading performance coach Karl Morris #83 According to scientists, we are surrounded by so much technology these days, even a goldfish can now focus on something for longer than a human. Researchers surveyed 2,000 participants, and the results showed the average human attention span has fallen from 12 seconds in 2000, or around the time the mobile revolution began, to eight seconds. Goldfish, meanwhile, are believed to have an attention span of nine seconds. Yeh, we need to do something about this. When I spoke to my friend Karl Morris on Zestology a while back, it got a big response. He's a leading performance coach in the world of sport and kind of a big deal (though he'd be far too modest to admit that himself). Last time we looked at designing a good day, and asked the question, 'What does a good day look like'. So we've gone in for more good days, more staying in the present and more what Karl calls Neutral Thinking. It all adds up to improving your focus and attention. How will this podcast help you? You'll get tips on staying in the moment, and improving your attention and focus. And we look at mindset too. Not positive thinking (which can be unrealistic), not negative thinking (which is just meh), but Neutral Thinking, which is more based on being optimistic but realistic at the same time. This podcast is brought to you by Bulletproof Coffee and supplements. Bulletproof is for anyone that wants to perform better, and features supplements and products based on 20 years of mind and body performance research.

The Sleep Doctor - with Dr. Michael Breus #80 How do you sleep? I thought I knew most of the important stuff about sleep, morning routines, and caffeine, but I just interviewed Dr. Oz's sleep doctor specialist, Dr Michael Breus, and he told me some stuff that blew my mind. I'm actually writing this with a cup of coffee by my side, and I've changed my morning routine (and coffee routine) because of the information I learnt from Dr. Breus. He's seriously well qualified. In addition to his private practice where he treats athletes, celebrities, and the like, he also "trains other sleep doctors and consults with major airlines, hotel chains, and retailers to provide the optimum sleep experience for their customers." So if you're interested in improving your sleep, and therefore performance and energy levels - listen to today's Zestology.

Dealing with life's ups and downs. With TV personality and 80s pop star Sinitta #76

Sometimes on my podcast Zestology I get very specific - into the nitty gritty of supplements, lifestyle practices and the science of feeling good. And then sometimes, I like to meet and pick the brains of interesting, successful and prominent people with a damn good story to tell. Roll on this week - yep this pic is me hanging out with 80s pop sensation Sinitta. Sinitta has 14 international hit singles. I was basically singing along to her music in the 80s. She is a mentor on The X Factor and she now makes her own fitness videos.

Have you heard of dutch daredevil "The Iceman", Wim Hof, yet? If not, you have a treat in store in this week's podcast. I first saw him speak in California last year. This guy is incredible. He holds 20 world records, including a world record for longest ice bath. Wim has shown what the human body is capable of once you find the flow within your physical and mental state. He describes his ability to withstand extreme cold temperatures as being able to "turn his own thermostat up" by using his mind through yoga. He climbed to 6.7 kilometres (22,000 ft) altitude at Mount Everest wearing nothing but shorts and shoes. I know! And he completed a full marathon above the arctic circle in Finland, in temperatures close to −20 °C (−4 °F). Dressed in nothing but shorts, Hof finished in 5 hours and 25 minutes. Listen to today's podcast for the opportunity to reach out and do more than what you thought you were capable of. Through the right training and exercises, you can strengthen your inner nature and prevent disease.

Sorting out back pain and living healthily with chiropractor and podcast host Dr. Michelle Robin #71

Put the painkillers down, and listen to Zestology. Dr Michelle Robin is one of the world's top chiropractors and a relevant guest for me. In this podcast, we start off with some general chat - but if you want to get straight to the good stuff on backs, sleep position and so forth, feel free to skip straight to that bit. Back pain is something I have a specific interest in. That's because every once in a while, mine hurts. Once Dr. Michelle gets going, the unbelievable in-depth knowledge she has offers some practical solutions to anyone living in pain or wanting more energy. Dr Michelle Robin is a fascinating expert in this area. She is a 'wellness chiropractor'. She says wellness because she doesn't just want to make sure your spine is in alignment. She makes a lot of sense. Enjoy. As I say, we start on general stuff, and then go more in depth. You may find that bit more useful. Tony.

Uh, are the two most important words in the world? Laura Coe is an entrepreneur, podcast host, philosophy lover and certified life coach. She's a brilliant podcast guest, because she told me in simple terms how two little words could change our lives. She had a high-powered corporate career, and when I say high-powered, she was right at the top. But then something dramatic happened, and everything changed. Our topic this week - expressing what you really want in life, and then getting it. (There's a clue as to what those two words are in here.) When you speak your truth, personal freedom, a sense of internal calm, a confidence you always wanted, but couldn't find, will start to appear. "Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." – Oscar Wilde. Oh, and for those two little words, listen on...
