I start every morning with stretches from while sitting on the bed, after I shut off the alarm and before the bathroom/morning routine. Makes a huge difference in my day.

How many of us avid gardeners have neck and shoulder stiffness from bending over? Its a real issue

Have I got a book for you! I'm a professional copyeditor for universities (and a longtime fan not only of your content but also of the way your mind works : ), and I just finished editing a great book (due out in 2025 from Princeton University Press) called Seven Decades: What Evolution Reveals about Human Longevity. This very entertaining book, written by a man (Michael Gurven) who has spent decades living with hunter-gather people in South America, Africa, and Micronesia, is a perfect combination of stories, science, and myth-debunking. I think you (and every curious thinking person) will really enjoy it---it's full of interesting factual yet entertainingly presented information. I won't remember to remind you when it comes out, so put it on your list and look for it next year! I really can't recommend it enough (and I do this for a living, so . . . ).
