Living Better, Longer, with Community Transformation of Blue Zones

Margaret Brown

Through the suggestion of one of our Northern Spirit Radio board members, Janine Thull, I decided to attend a presentation last week here in Eau Claire by the Blue Zones Project crew, and my eyes were opened. I''ll let their Vice President, Business Development, Margaret Brown, spell it out, but what I think I learned about was a thoughtful and brilliant mechanism to help us live longer and better, to help grow a community into well-being and health. It's something that's been done in many communities already, and hopefully soon on my home turf, with the help of Dave Markquart and his new organization, TrueWellness.org. But, I must note, that will only happen with many local minds and hands joining in the process, so I hope you will all--wherever you are, but particularly here in Eau Claire, WI--learn about Blue Zones and be part of using their powerful insights and tools to revolutionize our community intelligence for the good of all. Margaret Brown joins us from Camden, South Carolina.
