The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast
In this captivating episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich dives into a transformative conversation with Dr. Josh Axe, bestselling author of Eat Dirt and Think This, Not That. Dr. Axe unpacks the groundbreaking concept of “nature’s immunizations,” explaining how micro-exposures to dirt, sunlight, and outdoor living are critical for building a strong immune system and overall health. Drawing on both ancient wisdom and modern research, he challenges societal norms around over-sanitization and highlights how reconnecting with nature is key to healing chronic health issues, including gut health, autoimmune diseases, and even emotional well-being.
Dr. Axe shares his inspiring personal journey, including his battle with a debilitating spinal infection that reshaped his perspective on faith, mindset, and purpose. Together with Ginny, he explores how small lifestyle shifts—like spending time outside, gardening, and embracing seasonal eating—can yield profound physical and spiritual benefits. Packed with practical tips and heartwarming stories, this episode will inspire you to rethink your relationship with nature and equip you with tools to live a healthier, more meaningful life.
