This is Part 1 of our interview with Jonathan Jarecki who’s a 20-year-old undergraduate student with a deep passion for circadian biology, light therapy, and understanding the body’s incredible ability to heal when we work with nature instead of against it.

Jonathan shares how being raised in a holistic household shaped his approach to health, why he believes lifestyle and environment play such a powerful role in disease prevention, and how epigenetics shows us that our genes are not our destiny.

We dive into:

✨ Why Jonathan has chosen a natural approach to health since childhood

✨ The importance of allowing the body’s healing mechanisms to work

✨ How environment influences gene expression

✨ Questioning conventional science while staying open-minded

✨ The importance of curiosity, humility, and respectful conversations

✨ Jonathan’s journey into researching light, mitochondria, and circadian biology

Jonathan also shares his experience navigating college while holding perspectives that challenge mainstream ideas and why creating bridges through curiosity and compassion is so important.

This conversation was just getting started! Tune in next week for Part 2, where Jonathan dives deeper into the science behind sunlight, how light communicates with our cells, and the incredible health benefits of getting proper light exposure.

You won’t want to miss this one nor Part 2!
