Description: In today’s world, a perfectly normal day means sitting in front of a screen for eight to ten hours. Meeting after meeting. Task after task. Email after email. If we’re not chained to our chairs, we’re attached to our devices, looking down at our phones and plugging in headphones. And then we go home, sit down on the couch, and scroll some more before going to bed and doing it all over again. There must be a better way―but what is it? In Body Electric, book author Manoush Zomorodi--host of NPR’s TED Radio Hour and the Body Electric podcast--draws on expert interviews, cutting-edge research, and real experiences to reveal the surprising physiological costs of our digital existences including posture problems, dwindling eyesight, disrupted breathing and weight gain. Explore evidence-based, easy-to-manage tactics and solutions for better health and well-being. Debunk myths and misconceptions and harness insights into the labs, offices, schools, and homes where small shifts are making big difference, culminating in an easy-to-apply protocol.

Objectives: • Describe the contemporary and digital lifestyle. • Explain the physiological costs of digital existences. • Understand strategies for achieving health and well-being in a digital world.
