What’s your motive in mid-life for living beyond your life expectancy?In this thought-provoking TEDx talk, Dr Jonny Bloomfield, a Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach with a PhD in Sport Science, invites us to reimagine health not as a reactive clinical condition, but as a pro-active daily practice and how we need to shift our views on how we receive healthcare. Blending personal stories, cutting-edge science, and a call to action, Jonny shares his “ABC” approach to longevity: Attitude, Building skills, and Consistency.Drawing from his experience in elite sport, health coaching and his own’s father management of Parkinson’s Disease, he unpacks how small changes in nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, and connection can lead to big transformations, especially from midlife. If you’re seeking to live longer and maintain a good quality of life in your senior years so to enjoy more time with the people you love, this talk is for you.Because health isn’t just for hospitals, its in the choices we make everyday.“We can’t predict our ending, but we can influence our journey.” — Dr Jonny Bloomfield
