Flourish and feel alive in mind, body and soul - the Greek way! Join radio personality Kiki Vale on Kefi Life, a podcast that will enlighten listeners to discover ways to prosper in life and seize moments. The energy and essence of our episodes is to lead you to a life where all is well- Ola Kala! Take care of the body through nutrition and movement. Cultivate the mind through thought and discussion. Nourish the soul through prayer, passion and “philotimo” – one of my favorite Greek words, and one that is uniquely Greek; it describes a way of life; the spirit of duty and doing what’s right and honorable even when difficult. Each week, Kiki will begin her episode with a logo, or word, to help harmonize your mind, body and soul. Kefi, another formidable word, bringing joy, passion & soul to the podcast, will combine with the tenets of wellness. Like a true Hellene, Kiki will share recipes, storytelling, commentary, expert interviews, all of which lean upon the knowledge and wisdom learned at the table of her Greek ancestors, philosophers and from leading doctors specializing in Integrative Medicine. Kiki is a graduate of the school of Integrative Nutrition. Tune in each week to build on a life of Ola Kala – All Is Well. NOTE: This podcast is for informational and educational purposes only.

193: The POWER of a NAP
Sleep inertia in the form of a short nap will add years to your life and life to your years. Today’s topic is the POWER NAP
Today's Lexi:
Συνήθειa – Synítheia – Habit
In Today’s Episode:
My father, Tasso, God rest his soul, lived to the age of 90. He naturally abided by a healthy, Mediterranean lifestyle. All my life I was struck by his habits; slow chewing of whole foods, moving his own body to lift, move, and carry things. His zest for life was evident as he was always ready for Kefi time.
Although all of that was part of his regular routine: the one staple he always participated in without fail was to nap. He laid down for 30 to 60 minutes every single day.
Tassos’ Good Health/Nap scenerio is living proof that resting is good for the mind and body, but there is also scienticfic research to support this healthy habit. .
Napping, Nani, siesta, la somme, pisolino and drzemki – however you refer to it, is a nutrient for the body and the mind
Kiki shares more on the benefits of a POWER NAP during today’s episode.
