Duchowość, druga strona ludzkiego życia
Peter Attia’s Outlive is for me a personal manual to the human body. But there is another aspect of being alive. And is far more fascinating. I got interested in Wayne Dyer’s writings in the 90′, in the second trimester of my life. I had a busy cardiac surgical practice, often operating at night, on […]

Czy dobrze jest dożyć 100 lat? Długość życia a długość życia w zdrowiu
Methuselah lived to be 969. After the first 100, I imagine, his life had to be miserable. All his peers were gone, and the poor fellow couldn’t find a person to sit in the town’s square and have a cup of coffee with. Regardless of, at the certain point of life, we all either think, […]
