Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our lives are immersed in rhythms. The cycle of day turning to night. The rhythms of the seasons. Even our bodies adhere to many cycles, with the beating of our heart and our breath rising and falling. Within us, unbeknownst to most, even more intricate biological rhythms profoundly orchestrate our physiology across timescales from hours to years. These biological rhythms evolved over eons to optimize our functioning and health, but modern life often profoundly disrupts them. Realigning our lifestyles and environments to these innate human rhythms provides an as-yet under-recognized opportunity for enhancing healthspan, improving society, and enriching the human condition. This book aims to illuminate the workings and remarkable importance of biological rhythms in an accessible way, while providing practical guidance to translate this knowledge into lifestyle wisdom that empowers your best self. We have come to a point scientifically where personalized chronomedicine founded upon each individual's unique rhythms is transitioning from a far-off vision into an achievable reality, presaging a revolution in how we prevent, detect and treat disease. These pivotal times call for expanding public awareness so we can collectively harness the tremendous potential of chronobiology while advocating for innovative policies that will accelerate progress. It is my hope therefore that through this book, you gain inspiring new insight into your inner rhythms and are equipped with evidence-based strategies to optimize your sleep, nutrition, activity, and environment for 24-hour and lifelong well-being. Join me on an illuminating journey through the dynamics of time and life to enhance your own health journey.
