TLDR?

Edit: The key suggestions, according to a bot and condensed by me:

- Eat healthy.

- Sleep healthy.

- Exercise healthy.

- Try Intermittent Fasting to promote autophagy / mitophagy.

Do all these things, cultivate meaningful relationships, avoid anxiety and drug abuse and you’ll be well on your way to becoming an optimal version of yourself.

Sadly not. That mostly just covers your body and emotional well-being. You have to nurture your mind as well, which is beyond the scope of my pithy aphorisms.
