·In this episode of The Minimalists Podcast, Joshua & Ryan speak with Patrick Rhone, author of Enough, in Minneapolis, and they answer the following questions:
- Is America’s consumerism more nefarious than that of other countries that therefore makes practicing minimalism even more crucial in the United States?
- Is it better to use up what you have, or is it better to sell it, donate it, or give it away?
- Should I hang onto the things I purchased for the person I want to become?
- Are there similarities between the principles of living in Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning and the principles of minimalism?

Maintaining Independence in the Face of Disease
Source: http://blog.alz.org/maintaining-independence-in-the-face-of-disease/
On more than one occasion, when I was a young boy, my grandmother roamed the streets of Washington, D.C. at night. One night she was picked up by the police, and ultimately placed in a home with others “like her.” Back then, these types of events were attributed to old age and senility.
Today, my mother is living with Alzheimer’s disease – just like my aunt and grandmother. And at the age of 66, I am living with mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
Looking back, I realize that I had had symptoms for many years. There was the time I bought multiple cartons of milk in one shopping trip. Often, I’d leave my phone on top of my car and drive away. I started forgetting social dates and critical appointments.

Childhood brain injury tied to adult anxiety, depression

Children who sustained traumatic brain injuries may experience such psychological effects as anxiety, phobias and depression more than a decade later, researchers say.

TBH Science Update June 2017 | Study Suggests Worldwide Dementia Rates Declining, Perhaps Due to Lifestyle

Study Suggests Worldwide Dementia Rates Declining, Perhaps Due to Lifestyle
What: A recent review of epidemiological research on worldwide rates suggests a downward trend in the prevalence and incidence of dementia. Researchers used data from 14 large studies looking at the prevalence (9 studies) and incidence (5 studies) from Europe, Asia, the US and Africa. With the exception of Japan, the studies uniformly showed steady or declining rates of dementia incidence and prevalence.
Why This Matters: Dementia is a leading global health challenge, affecting approximately 50 million people worldwide. Agencies including the World Health Organization (WHO) predict dementia rates will grow to 131.5 million …

How to Squat
Source http://www.niashanks.com/how-to-squat/
Everyone should train the squat movement, in some form.
The squat movement is as functional as exercise can get. You squat to sit in a chair or get in, and out of, a vehicle. You squat to the toilet. You squat to do lots of things. Like the book Everybody Poops – well, everybody squats.
It’s a basic human movement pattern – one that can be trained, loaded, and progressed in numerous ways. When used in a progressive strength training program the squat is useful for getting stronger, building muscle, losing fat, becoming more awesome, improving quality of life, and testing your mental fortitude.
Basically, unless you have a physical limitation, there’s no reason not to squat.
I’ll demonstrate 3 popular loaded squat variations below and discuss the advantages and limitations of each.
Goblet Squat
Goblet squats are my favorite variation for those who are new to strength training because this variation can be learned quickly and has a smaller learning curve than, say, a barbell squat. Because this variation can be learned quickly, it buil…
