Why Blue Zone?

When we set out to build Blue Zone Marketing, we wanted to pay homage to values that we live and believe every day. 

In 2005, Dan Buettner, writing for National Geographic, discovered the “Blue Zones” – 5 cities around the world where Buettner found a greater-than-average number of residents living longer lives than anywhere else in the world.

Where are the 5 Blue Zones?

  • Sardinia, Italy
  • Okinawa, Japan
  • Loma Linda, California
  • Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica
  • Icaria, Greece

Each of these locations around the world have proven to be home to some of the longest living people on earth. They experience less disease, happier lives, and the largest numbers of centenarians (people 100 years old) in the world. 

Through further research, Dan Buettner and his team discovered that residents in each Blue Zone followed a specific set of lifestyle habits that Buettner attributed to their health and longevity. He labeled them the “Power 9” 

  1. Move Naturally
  2. Purpose
  3. Down Shift
  4. 80% Rule
  5. Plant Slant
  6. Wine @5
  7. Belong
  8. Loved Ones First
  9. Right Tribe

As business owners, we understand that to maintain a thriving business, there are specific habits that ensure a long, healthy, and happy life for that company.
