How To Add Ten High Quality Years To Your Life (Really)
October 2, 2019

Over the past six months I’ve been delving into the topic of ageing and living well for my new documentary The Longevity Film (the cinema tour). I visited the world’s blue zones (longevity cultures) where people have extraordinary health throughout most of their life and live about ten years longer than we do. Ten years

August 30, 2019

Written by Kale Brock & brought to you by The Longevity Film 2019 Official Tour Whether it’s the lightly coloured, naturally fermented home-made red wine of Ikaria or the dark, dry Grenache red in Sardinia, when it comes to the observation of cultures who live a long time – one may come to the conclusion that

The late European sun shines a golden light over the green pastures of Munich, Germany. I gaze out the window of the plane contentedly at the cultivated agricultural fields interspersed with classical European architecture made even more romantic from above. I’m in a deeply introspective mood. A warm positive light, perhaps soaked up from the

April 4, 2019

HAPPY EASTER!! I’ve had this concept in my mind for a while now – we could put one of my favourite products in my hand, couple it with some great surf, and try to get an awesome tube shot. Well, somewhat unexpectedly, the other morning I rocked up to one of my favourite beaches and

March 27, 2019

I feel like two of the biggest weak points for everybody when it comes to their diet seem to be breakfast and snacking, funnily enough, the two are intricately linked. Warning – not vegan. Let’s be completely honest with each other, we’ve all been there, eating “one piece of chocolate” on the couch whilst watching
Read moreWhy Surfer’s Brains Are Happier Than Others
February 19, 2019

It’s a bit of a generalisation, sure, but surfers seem to be happier than everybody else. If you think about the stereotype of a surfer, it’s that fun, excited, playful guy or gal running down the beach with a big smile on his or her face. That’s not to say that other people aren’t happy,

February 11, 2019

It’s easy to get caught up in the whole ‘more more more’ thing right? I would know, trust me! More readers, more views, more ticket sales, more waves, go bigger and better all the time every single day! But this type of mindset doesn’t always lead to somewhere great… and certainly doesn’t lead anywhere healthy.

September 25, 2018

I feel like all the movies we’ve watched over the years projecting this insanely controlled future filled with brain chips and trackers and an overarching government have kind of been… just movies right? But as we continue down this trajectory that we’re currently on, politically, socially, economically, I can’t help but think that Hollywood writers
