Mayo Clinic The Human Optimization Project

Auteur(s): Mayo Clinic School of Continuous Professional Development
  • Résumé

  • The bar for human performance is higher than it’s ever been. As a result, we all feel the need to do MORE. At the same time, we are becoming increasingly aware of the value of sleep, rest, recovery, and wellness. Accordingly, we also feel the need to do LESS. If you’re like most people, it can be challenging to reconcile this conflict of feeling the need to do MORE and LESS simultaneously, and that is likely contributing to high rates of burnout and decreased performance. So how do we reconcile these seemingly competing desires? That is where Human Optimization comes in. Human Optimization is the process of achieving more (however you define that for yourself) while simultaneously improving your wellness and well-being. Although it’s not easy, it’s certainly possible. Not only is it possible, but it is becoming increasingly essential. In this Mayo Clinic Talks Mini-Series, we are going to dive into the topic of Human Optimization and will focus on a few key areas including: exercise, nutrition, culture, emotional intelligence, and finding joy in all you do.

To help us get started on this journey of improving our communication, our guest for this session is Dustin Morse, Senior Vice President of Communications and Public Affairs for the Minnesota Twins Baseball Club. In this episode, he is going to help us answer the following three big questions: 1-What does effective communication look like, and why is it so important? 2-Why do so many of us struggle with clear and effective communication? 3-What steps can individuals take to better communicate and connect with the people in their lives?

  • Understanding Your Circadian Rhythm: The Foundation for Healthy, Quality Sleep
    Apr 9 2025

    Host: Christopher L. Camp, M.D.

    Guest: Michael Howell, M.D.

    You’ve likely heard of the concept of the “Circadian Rhythm,” but you may not fully understand it. Most people have no idea what their personal circadian rhythm is or how to determine it. Similarly, most of us don’t understand just how our circadian rhythm impacts our energy, sleep, mood, and productivity on a daily basis. Developing a better understanding of your circadian rhythm is a key to optimizing your health, energy, productivity, and joy. Our guest today is Dr. Michael Howell, who is a Sleep Medicine Physician at the University of Minnesota and an expert on all things related to the circadian rhythm. In this episode, he is going to help us answer the following three big questions: 1-What is the circadian rhythm, and how does it affect human health? 2-Why do so many people struggle with sleep, and how can understanding the circadian rhythm help improve sleep quality? 3-What changes can the average person make to align their lifestyle with their natural circadian rhythm for better health and performance?
