How To Make Lifestyle Changes That Will Last with Dr Rangan Chatterjee and Dr Ayan Panja

Why is it that so many of us find it hard to stick to a new diet or lifestyle plan? We all start off well enough – full of energy and optimism, but then the novelty soon wears off and life gets in the way. After some time, we are right back where we first started.

The fact is, most health plans are based on the common, but incorrect assumption that we can make sweeping and lasting changes to our health by relying solely on willpower and motivation. But for the vast majority of us, this is just not true. This is exactly why I wrote my new book, ‘Feel Better in 5’ – I want to empower people to make changes in their life not just in the short term, but ones that will stand the test of time.

This week, my good friend Dr Ayan Panja returns to my Feel Better, Live More podcast and puts me in the hot seat. We talk about how 5-minute chunks of time really can change your life, the importance of human connection when trying to make lifestyle change, and why I am such a fan of a rounded approach to health.

We also discuss the ripple effect – how one small change in one aspect of your life can very quickly ripple into other areas. We delve into the latest in behaviour science and how we can use this to help us make new healthy habits.

Finally, I explain to Ayan that my goal in writing ‘Feel Better in 5’ was to make health as accessible as possible to people of all backgrounds, hence the reason nearly all the recommendations within it are completely free.

Ayan finishes by sharing some of his top tips. I really enjoyed taking some time out to sit down and chat with one of my best friends – I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did!
