Episode Synopsis

In this inspiring episode of Covering Your Health with Evelyn Erives, presented by IEHP, we’re joined by Erin Edwards, Executive Director of The Blue Zones Project in Riverside. Erin shares her passion and leadership in bringing the Blue Zones philosophy to life right here in the Inland Empire.  We dive into the origins and impact of the Blue Zones concept—regions around the world where people live longer, healthier lives—and explore how communities like Loma Linda have become shining examples of this lifestyle in action. Erin discusses how The Blue Zones Project is shaping the future of wellness in Riverside and beyond, with exciting new initiatives aimed at transforming neighborhoods into thriving, health-focused environments.  Tune in to learn how small changes can lead to big results, and what’s in store for neighboring communities as this global movement continues to grow locally.  For more information on this show's topic visit IEHP.org or (800) 440-IEHP.Learn more about The Blue Zones Project Riverside  and follow them on Instagram @bzpriverisdeReach out to Evelyn via Instagram @evelynerives or email her at [email protected]
