The RARE SENSE mind fitness paradigm is comprised of three blocks: maintenance, orientation, and development. Maintenance is what we often consider our physical fitness formula of diet, exercise, and recovery, with the added component of breathwork. As someone with deep knowledge on the topic of diet, I wanted to talk to Robb about this particular facet of optimizing our own mind-body regimens. He’s someone who has transformed the lives of hundreds of thousands worldwide via his top-ranked iTunes podcast, books, and seminars on the subject.
