The speakers you’ll want to hear

HealthFlix is truly grateful to an all-star lineup of internationally renowned experts in health and wellness who have given their time for free during this period of global crisis.

• Dean Ornish, founder of the Preventive Medicine Research Institute, directing clinical research into how comprehensive lifestyle changes help fight heart disease and cancer
• Daniel Siegel, clinical psychiatrist at UCLA and author of The Mindful Brain
• Michael Dixon, GP and chair of the College of Medicine, a driving force behind the “social prescribing” movement to find health support within the community

Building a better, healthier world

With so many people suddenly confined to their homes, there’s never been a better time to learn easy skills and build habits to balance stress, keep moving, stay calm, get to sleep, and manage negative emotions. These are practices you’ll want to hold on to and develop in the long-term, whatever your circumstances.

Social isolation and stress were not invented with this virus. For the HealthFlix team, the big question is: “Can we take this crisis – this pause in our lives – and use it to get inspired, to learn new skills and better understand the science that will help support ourselves, our families and our communities in the future?”
