Sam discusses longevity and stroke recovery on 85th birthday

In an interview marking his 85th birthday, Sam discusses his philosophy of moderation and his journey toward longevity. He attributes his physical fitness to regular exercise and the practice of pranayama, a conscious breathing technique learned from yogis, which he originally used to assist his vocal performance.

Sam also reflects on his recovery from a 2019 stroke that left the left side of his body paralyzed. He recounts his experience at Bielański Hospital in Warsaw, where he worked with medical professionals, including a neurologist and a speech therapist, to regain his abilities.
