I love the way his face lights up when he thinks and talks about Serena. 🥰 I saw a recent podcast with them together and not knowing I wondered how this woman was radiating so much love that him in the way she talked to him and tonality now I learn she’s the partner 😊
he should be proud, no man can be everything but Hope ? is one of the best gifts and he should be proud
It makes sense that competitive exercise such as senior hockey, pickle ball etc would activate our survival mechanisms even better than solitary exercise.
i noticed a kindness .. humbleness.. Thank you Serena Thank you David!!!!
Wonderful discussion, very uplifting.
Since Dr Sinclair is the major force behind the FDA's attempt to ban NMN, thus working against the improved health and longevity of those of us taking the supplement. he offers us this "Let them eat cake" consolation. It's unconscionable.
The FDA must look at the compound being administered and how it is administered. Dr. Sinclair isn’t just orally administering NMN. Hope that it is being looked at.
Like Aubrey de Grey and Charles Brenner, he has shady tendencies. (And Brenner is his arch-enemy.) At least he's not a creepy alcoholic like de Grey. That's worse to me, no matter how brilliant de Grey is.
@@HooieBones hi have you heard about the cocktail from harvard
Thank you also. Spiritually is important as well as what we eat. Fortunately, i grew up on a farm and planted many organic gardens and have fruit trees , pecan, prune , peaches , apple and berries and raised honey bees. I am having some health problems, but slowly getting help.❤
Thanks for sharing David Sinclair. I fully empathise. We are surrounded by people who have bought into defeatism. It is oppression by a majority if you think about it.
Why invest billions of USDs in warmongering and just less than 1% in healthspan increase.
This was very informative and I will get Dr. Sinclair's book.
Thank you for the science and the new ideas, life, and aging.What encouraging news in the science that he has dedicated his life too. Meditation!! Eating well.
Thank you all again for this discussion. The personal journey of Dr. Sinclair on his life and the choices and growth in his work and how he encapsulate it within his field of science and experiences in his own life as a father and partner was moving and sincere. This we all have had a journey on.
With deep respect and appreciation for all of you.❤
A transformation of a spiritual consciousness also helps.
We are all connected no matter what faith or none. A moral compass of what love is.🙏❤️🌏🕊🎶
meditate:
to think on, from Latin “meditat-”, meaning “contemplated”, from the verb “meditari”, from a base, meaning “measure”.
In most religious/spiritual traditions, particularly those originating in Bharāta (India), meditation is a mental practice in which one either allows thoughts to appear in the mind (and simply observe those thoughts without judgement) or else one tries to focus all thought upon a single object. That object can be almost anything, yet most commonly is a religious figure (such as God, a demigod, or a spiritual master), a point in one’s visual field (such as a candle flame), a brief prayer (normally referred to as a “mantra”), or else observing or focusing on one’s own breath (a fundamental part of “vipassanā”, in the Buddhistic tradition [“vipaśyanā”, in Sanskrit]).
The main benefit of meditational practices is to free the mind of superfluous thoughts. Some individuals in the so-called “ultra-spiritual” community mistakenly believe that the cause of suffering is any thought whatsoever, and therefore, embark on a fruitless endeavour to eradicate all thoughts from the mind (or at least from the intellect - see Chapter 05). How I wish that every single one of those persons end-up in a coma for the remainder of their lives, since that is the only way that they will possibly achieve their impossible goal. Humorously, even coma patients can experience dream thoughts, so even then, their aim may be thwarted!
Fortunately, as demonstrated in Chapter 15 of this “Final Instruction Sheet for Humanity”, the source of suffering is NOT due to thoughts as such, but due to a misunderstanding of how life operates. The cure for such nescience is unerring knowledge. In fact, I would posit that excessive meditational practices, such as that observed by the stereotypical Hindu/Buddhist monk who flees to a mountain cave in order to meditate for about fifteen hours per day, is actually detrimental to one’s spiritual development, because it weakens the intellect. Just as the physical body requires regular exercise, the intellectual dimension of the human person also needs to be exercised via the study of philosophy and yoga, which is especially important for those who profess to be spiritual teachers.
Therefore, a healthy balance between contemplative practice, intellectual endeavour, and physical exercise is most beneficial.
Possibly the most apposite form of meditation for the overwhelming majority of humans is a kind of ACTIVE meditation, in which one is perpetually contemplating how to best benefit society. Because it is practically impossible for one to fully control one’s thoughts, one should use the hyperactive nature of the intellect to its advantage, by constantly devising methods how to further dharma. This is the principal meditation practice of the current World Teacher Himself, The Saviour of Humanity, Jagadguru Svāmī Vegānanda.
Some persons believe that one can learn the “secrets of life” (that is, to fully understand life/existence, and how to live one’s life in accordance with the universal, Divine Will) by sitting in the lotus position and focusing one’s attention on the base (or tip) of one’s nose for several hours per day! Undoubtedly, some have received wise insights during their meditation practice, but to assume that one can replace the accumulated wisdom of the sages over the past twenty thousand years or so, with an introspective path of illumination, is, sad to say, one of the many delusions of pseudo-spirituality. None of the great sages in history were so naturally enlightened as to dispense with a living guru. Even a single day spent at the feet of an actual spiritual master can be more valuable to gaining knowledge and insight into the meaning of life, than an entire lifetime of meditating on one’s navel (figuratively speaking).
Even Sinclaire is beginning to look his age. I would definitely put him in his early 50s, albeit a well kept one.

he just wants to be perfect and he can't like so many of us, he cant, for his next birthday maybe all he gave hope to and those he gave ideas to should send him cards, millions and millions of cards for starting the ball rolling.....
because existentiliism sucks and now I know what I need to do we all need more time, its a gift
Well, he didn’t inherit a big bank account he worked for it. So, does his earnings put him in league with the, ‘Robber Barrons’; etc.
The only thing Sinclair is mindful of is his BANK BALANCE
